- In this video, I demonstrate how the "return to home" and precision landing works on the DJI Mini 4 Pro. As a new drone pilot, you may be apprehensive about using the return to home feature as you may not be sure if it is reliable. This is a basic tutorial on how to use the return to home feature and some tips you should know before using it.

The RTH capabilities of these modern drones is amazing. Good tutorial, and thanks for sharing Shawn.
Shawn, like always this was a great tutorial. Although I follow your channel for a long time, this is my first comment. In fact: You and your tutorials brought me into flying my Mini 2 the right way from the beginning. From the first time I saw videos on your channel, I liked your voice and the calming, but straight forward way you lead us through your tutorials. This is so rare these days, especially in CZcams. Before you switched to your "new Life", I always wondered, who is the face behind that voice ? Now we also have a face, we can refer to when watching your videos. Please keep doing videos the way you do. We all in this growing drone community can only benefit from people like you. Thank you.
I really like your CZcams videos, and not just the drone videos either. It’s so refreshing and, I might add, pretty unusual not to hear music, ‘What’s up’ etc. I usually stop any video the moment I can’t hear the reviewer. As always, a very informative video. Thank you
Well done Shawn....i've gone from a Mini SE to Mini 2 to Mini 3 but my new Mini 4 PRO is just incredible...great videos
Nice 👍 and thank you very much for watching
How drones u need😂
Thank you Shawn. Love the way you explane everything. Thank again. Chuck
Beginner here and Thank you just the information I was looking for with my new mini 4 pro
You're cranking out some great vids dude, thank you !
Mini 4 pro is my first drone. Just got it last week. Watched a lot videos. Your voice has a calming effect on me. Have not yet pressed the RTH. I always do it manually. I'd better use the built-in tech to return. Thanks for the demo. Very useful for a newbie like me.
Another very real assuring vid! Thanks Shawn!👌👍
My pleasure!! Thanks for watching. I appreciate that.
Great video - thank you for putting it together
Good job as usual Shawn.
Thanks, Shawn! Im doing my own RTH today....from Ottawa. Just in time to receive my mini 4 pro on Tuesday!
Very nice looking forward to your videos
Brilliant, thanks mate.
Great vid thank you
Great video!
This drone is very smart
Thanks very much Shawn!
Very helpful Video..
Thank you Shawn good tut.
Nice tutorial. Thanks
Thank you very much
Just got mine yet to fly.but the rth was a worry for me.your vid has put my mind at rest on how it works. Cheers mate 🙏
Shawn, Thank you for this informative video on RTH! I am headed out to try these out. Excellent and educational video.
Glad it was helpful!
Another great tutorial 😀
Thanks for doing all these !
🐈⬛🐾👍👍👍👍
My pleasure!
Great video
Thank you very much greatly appreciated
Nice. ❤
Excellent video...many thanks...One question, can Eagle or Kite or similar birds damage the DJI Mini 4 Pro ? I am a noobie and have bought this model and just learning from your vids . Thanks
Nice and informative video @Shawn, I have a question.
If you have to pick between Air 3 vs Mini pro 4 which one would you pick.
1) No constraint for money
2) Want more value out of the money
3) Quality of the product (Strength, longitivtiy, software)
4) And will air 3 get active 360 track feature.
I’ve used the RTH feature plenty, but I’m trying to find out how to get the green RTH path, and compass to sho on my screen. Perhaps I’ve overlooked it, but so far haven’t figured that out. Hope you can help. Great demo of precision landing.
Can you please do a video on the gain and expo settings to get smooth cinematic shots? I am struggling with this new m4p. Everything is just so jerky when I am filming. I had some good settings for the m2 and m3p but there were only 4 simple settings to adjust for pitch and yaw. Please do a video for the best setting for smooth cinematic shots.
It would be great if you showed demo for night. I’m still nervous about flying at night. Thanks!
Why sometimes is the Home point on Earth off by a few yards on the Map interface? I notice it happens at random, I guess.
I think the GPS of the drones and some maps just don't match that well, Sometimes Spot on.
Something to be mindful of.
I had one low battery RTH in woodland and it flew straight up to the branches above. Is that because of the height settings?
Does the DJI MINI 4 PRO RTH obstacle avoidance cover the geo fence of Restricted zone?
I miss the flight time line on the RC. The power remaining circle is okay, but how does it judge battery power to get back to the home point?
Sorry if I missed this in the video. When you fly in high winds, often a warning message will appear that says RTH is unavailable. What is your experience with this and why does it do that? What would the drone do if you lose connection at that time?
I feel sleepy listening to your voice. However, the details and explanation are very good, so I ended up finishing the video😂
Lol, well, I appreciate that. I have been told by some viewers that my voice is very relaxing, in fact, one guy commented a while back, that he listens to my videos to fall asleep at night 😂
@@AirPhotographyI bought the mini 4 pro, got onto your 40 min youtube excited bout watching the beginners & fell dead ass asleep 😂 amazing tutorials very informative but you should also make a sleeping ASMR youtube to help with anxiety & to sleep better at night. 👌🏽💰😮💨 haha
What microphone do you use?
Another good tutorial Shawn, but one crucial thing you forgot to mention is that if you return to home against a strong head wind you could have major problems as the drone can't legislate for wind speed...
Im new to this so please forgive my ignorance. Are you talking about if the battery died then it would not have enough to get back?, as if not then even if the wind was to blow it of course on route back to the home pad it would surly just keep heading for the co-ordinates of its home pad?
I needed this Shawn. Still on the mini 2 but I have severe anxiety about losing sight of my drone because I don't trust the RTH. I've been on some epic shoots where my footage is limited because I'm afraid to fly too far out of sight, which I know is ridiculous.. Question, if you're flying somewhere very windy and the drone goes up to the max altitude for RTH, what happens if you start getting the "high wind warning"? Could the drone crash? From a fellow Canook, I enjoy the content! 🇨🇦🍁
These drones can handle some pretty extreme wind, even when you’re getting the wind warning. in extremely powerful when there is that chance that the drone could lose control but that would have to be a very extreme situation. Definitely if it had to come home for that short period of time, it should be OK in most winds
Hi. Great video. If you press and hold rth button on rc2 and accidentally press Land instead of rth, can you take over flying it again or cancel the Land?
Yes, indeed if it starts the landing procedure, you can cancel it
Great, thank you
Had same question. What about drone is following us and we don't want to return to take off location but to land where controller is then what should we do?
@@AirPhotography
You advice us to climb to 7 meters and wait a bit. Which camera//sensor/device records a picture of the landing pad? Doesn't the drone just use ultra sonics for distance measuring?
Indeed, it does but it also uses the cameras to basically take a snapshot of where it’s taking off from. It uses that when landing to try and find the precise landing spot. If you’re using precision landing feature. Otherwise it will just use GPS to get to the general location which is usually fairly accurate as well.
@@AirPhotography So the Mini 4 pro angles the camera down when setting the home point, to capture the reference for landing?
@@AirPhotography A snapshot, straight forward? That would call for a fantastic mathematical precision to calculate horisontal distance that close. Why not angled the camera down and take a real picture? Then we could talk, I think. My guess is that pure GPS is mostly used.
The new shadow symbol, used in the Mini 4 pro and the Mavic 3 pro (!), is excellent for aiming. Used it yesterday when strong wind warnings were issued, and landed within less of an inch, using the shadow.
Turning off the downward protection precision landings are easy to achieve.
Two things: can you change the settings for RTH in battery depletion mode? For instance, if I have the drone actively tracking me over water, i don’t want it to return to the last updated home point, as that could now be in the water. The other thing is.. how did you do that landing in your hand without the sensors preventing the landing. Bonus question: how did you turn off the drone when it landed in your hand?
Thanks! //derek
Den Startpunkt aktualisieren. Dann wird der der Fernbedienung genommen. Landen, einfach die Abwārtsknüppel konstant betätigen.
Another bloody beaut video Shawn mate. How good is the 4 hey. All the best mate from Australia. 🇦🇺👍
😎😎
Looks like they put precision landing on the mini finally.
You must look to the wind, if you have Wind against the Return to home direction, better you Return to home earlier. Look the batterie Capacity you should be at the home point at 15% Battery Capacity.
Exact way I lost mine in a fucking tree
Dumb question but how do you set home point landing
From the camera view screen first press the 3 dots on the top right corner to open the settings menu
Go to the first top tab "Safety"
Scroll Down to "Update Home Point"
A small box will appear in the center of the screen with 2 white rectangular options Aircraft or Controller.
Most of the time, pressing "Controller" is the way to go. Especially if you're already flying and you walked away from your start point.
Don't press "Aircraft" unless it's currently hovering above a safe landing zone or you really know what you're doing.
@@brandon9689what I read is first we will have to connect controller to internet until then we cannot set rth to controller location
3:40 you mean horizontally... 5:19... how do you make that mistake twice?
what happens to the drone if half of a propeller breaks off
Definitely replace it. I’ve never had half a prop break in the air so I don’t know what would happen but I’m assuming it would crash or the flight stability would be greatly compromised anyways if that was to happen mid air, just safely try and land it
I just lost my drone and the controller got disconnected from the drone, it said return to home but I pressed cancel by anxiety because of the skyscrapers around it, I was worried it would get it. I got the drone yesterday and lost it
Why did the controller disconnect?
@@roninr8199 well I think it’s because I flew it behind a 420 meter skyscraper so it lost connection
@@kwt.2673 still it is suppose to come back to you if you loose connection / battery. What drone you have
@@roninr8199 I was dumb at the time I just got the drone DJI mini 4 pro and didn’t put the settings of return to home and a skyscraper location and I pressed cancel since it would’ve crashed at a building. I found it the next day it was broken because it started raining
@@kwt.2673 you can always cancel, resume rth. Even for me dji mini 4 pro is going to be first drone but I would practice nd just use for quick aerial video and photos. No experiments initially 😂😂
Hope you mini4pro owners be happy to have the attitude restrictions put back on jan 2024 i have the mini3pro and i definitely wont update 😂😂
You do know the world is bigger than where you are at, Right?
@@aloeisthestuff9622yeah for real I’m in North Carolina and I have 500m limit max
Thank you Shawn good tut.
