Mavic Mini crash compilation | 12 mistakes | drone fail
"I'm gonna do a range test..."
"But we already know how far--"
"I'll do it over water!"
I own a Dji Mini 2 but I will never do a range test... it's beyond stupid to return close to 50% battery because the wind situation might be less favorable on the flight back.
Great video. I took 15 hours of flying lessons in a cessna 150 years ago before running out of money and never finishing. One thing I remembered from those lessons which drone pilots can profit from and which is mentioned in this video is that when a pilot experiences an emergency or potential emergency, the first thing that is taught (to civilian pilot trainees) is to watch for emergency landing sites while you're working the problem and heading back to the airport. UAV pilots must do the same as this video points out. Get away from the water and trees if possible as you are heading home. Fly as low as possible (for less headwind unless you are getting a tailwind to help forward speed and less distance to fall if the battery fails) and fly next to a roadside or border of a field if possible so that you can find your aircraft later if power fails. If you think that you won't make it back, better to make a controlled landing at a known good recovery point than to risk it and have the power go out on you at a moment not of your choosing. Civilian pilot trainees are taught this too. If they are losing power and they think its highly unlikely to make it back to the airport, better to pick the best emergency set-down point you can find while you still have control and put it down now.
Never cross a body of water or thick forest if you must go below 70% of battery power to cross it. There could be a headwind coming back and you must save some reserve power for emergencies. This is like scuba diving, you come back to the boat with 20% air reserve 500psi still in your tank, never take it down to zero!
That DJI care refresh plan ain't looking so bad now.
DJI: Dont fly out of line of sight, or on low battery.
Pilot: ok...
Pilot later on internet forums...: the mavic mini is garbage!
I only use a DJI spark simply because it's seriously fun on sport mode. I'm too not into pictures or that isn't a selling point for me it's the drone flying and doing what I tell it to do. Being fast and reliable. Getting fun out of it. And have it for another day. Walking back home after enjoying the flight and being happy your drone is still spotless and ready to go next time.
Just Gameplay Have you tried racing/FPV drones? They’re very fast and fun to fly, but with slightly worse video quality c:
@@smg1336 an FPV drone is a whole nother level compared to a selfie drone like the mini.
It also costs ALOT to get into it. A good radio is like 200.00 decent goggles like 400. And a good drone with 5 min flight time is 200+... If you want something with a decent camera ur looking at 400+
So your spending almost 1000.00 for a drone with less flight time and no GPS. So when u lose it you can't locate it...
FPV has its place but you cant compare it to a DJI drone. They are very different.
Thats like trying to go off roading with a Ferrari 360 and calling it crap cause it can't do it...
Chose the right tool for the job.
@@smg1336 looking into one mate
@@3star2nr What are you talking about, of course FPV drones have GPS. Thats the difference: you build it the way you want it... not you get it the way a company sells it.
good job, the great majority of drone crashes are user related!!
Absolutely!
You mean, ALL?
Hahah true! Check this one is FPV drone!!! All controller by user czcams.com/video/62v2d_x5tmc/video.html
2:58 ahhaagahhhh 😹
That's gotta be the most stupid thing I've read all day. God it must suck to be such an idiot
0:51. Considering how hard she hit the post it’s amazing how the drone was still able to fly.
I broke two propellers in half after I hit a electric line on my DJI mavic mini and it stayed flying
I had a prop come off in flight and didn't even know until I landed the drone.
@@carmenmartino2825 what kind?
@@Matanumi I swear, ur everywhere
@@dosomestuff1949 everywhere like a drone.
99% crash pilot eror
You're right. 😊
Sim
Sometimes it is strong wind. Don't be ignorant.
Probably 99.999% but I will say I've learned the Mavic Mini Fly More box will warp props if not folded properly which is quite tricky. I got an critical message in flight while hover off a heavily wooded mountainside about 200ft away. Returned immediately without crashing.
99% idiots
My Mavic Mini should arrive tomorrow and I know that many drones crash so seeing that 99% of the crashes were human error is calming.... Also this video is very educational because you learn to care more and be more aware, etc. Great Video!
How has your experience been 1 year later? Any problems/tips to share?
that why i never fly a drone near a goddamn water.
Me too 😊
I crashed my DJI Spark in the sea cuz I added a Sun hood
@@dkhn0574 sorry. I don't get it. Why did it happen?
What I don't understand is why not fly the drone over to the shore and land it instead of still flying over the water with the battery so low. It would be better to go get it than lose it in the water.
@@stringsattached67 I think the same way as you do. Haha.
I def learn a lot of what not to do while watching these videos lol
That's great. Thanks for your support. 😊
Same here ! Lol
Chadwick Wicky I unfortunately crashed mine last weekend lol
Anthony A aw man hope it’s ok!
Chadwick Wicky I don’t know how but it’s perfectly fine. Thanks man 🤙🏼
Thanks for the upload. They didn't even seem that near the power lines. Something else to bear in mind along with high winds.
Rules to follow. Never go out of sight. Stay away from trees and buildings. Stay away from power lines. End all flights at 20% power. Spend most time over safe landing areas. DO NOT fly far over water!!!! The higher and further you go the more likely that you'll never see the drone again.
For #6... yeah this is why you should just use the OEM parts like propellers and batteries. Camera lens filters and such don't matter because they won't impact flight but rotors and batteries can. This is also why it is sort of better to buy the Fly More combos. You get 2-3 extra sets of propellers and a few extra batteries so at least if one of those has a problem, you can change it on-site. And they're generally a better deal in the end. For example, a Mavic Air 2 battery is $115 USD, but the Fly More combo is $200 more than just the Air 2 basic kit (but with the combo you get 2 extra sets of propellers and two extra batteries, plus a charging tray to charge all 3 batteries, so it's definitely worth looking into the Fly More combos especially if you use your drone while traveling and finding spare parts or batteries may be hard--like in foreign countries).
Why am I watching these the day I get a mavic mini
imagine doing a range test over water
I'm glad to see these were all pilot error and not the drone itself. But still sucks seeing them crash
3:35 importance of installing DJI-brand propellers!
"OH dji propellers are so expensive" well then this happens
I am a master of drones repairs!!! Only because I’m a not a master of flying, just Subscribed!
Wow. Hi there. Thank you
lol how many times you repaired your drone?
antonio ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOP multiple times, enough to know to have spare parts.
I don't think electric lines interference are a problem: that accident around 2:00 may be due to a bird strike or something other. Flying near high voltage lines in something routinely done (lots of video on CZcams too). And it's also one of the serious/business jobs for which drones of all kinds are used.
oh no I can't look! I really like my little drone.
😆
Yes most of these are all pilot errors but if you’ve ever been in a situation where your drone is at risk you’ll know it’s not easy and it takes great skill to keep a clear head.
4:27 - That was intense! I watched that going “Oh god… Oh god.. Oh God oh godOHGOD!” 😂
#8 is the most common mistake. I always check that my RTH altitude is always set at over 100'. That and flying with a low battery.
You know it's pilot error when at the start of each video you can see what is wrong already, and easily predict the outcome...
Number 1 was just asking for it for the low battery
Your nearly at 1000 !! Let me help you with that 👍 good luck .
Mistakes that makes us a better drone pilot. Thanks for sharing this lesson compilation.
Nice share
I've got two Mini 2's. Whenever I fly, I always double check my home point. Always.
After watching this I now fly back literally when ever my mini is at 50
I keep my drone anywhere from 50 to 100ft off the ground and when I bring it in for landing I am very slow with it just to make sure it’s not going to hit a damn thing
i always put a dab of lock tight on my screws never had a problem with props coming off crashed into house siding in a night flight once broke 4 of the props but replaced them and was good to go the dji mini se is a champ
Great compilation, I learned a lot tonight!
Love the feeling of hopelessness you feel when your drone decides to put itself down. 😅
That's exciting. 😁
Dad Random I don’t see any of your epic mini crashes 🤣
So what i saw here, every single pilot of the Mavic Mini, we’re inexperienced. Don’t go out and fly a drone with no experience!! You tend to ruin it for all of us other pilots that know what they’re doing.
How can one get drone flying experience without flying drones?
dingdingdingdiiiiing Practice basic control skills before moving on to advanced manouvers.
Buy toy grade drone & try fly it 1st. Some cheap drone are copy from original & resemble real. Learn to fly first.
@@zainizakaria7422 if not mavic mini, then which?
Other cheap drone will be ok. Try basic flying 1st
My video could be added to this list when it went through the tree Lol. Silly RTH error on my part. Great video.
I've just watched your video. I'm sorry😆. A nice altitude setting for RTH is really important.
John的飛常生活 Thanks John, you live and learn 😊
Interesting video! Many mistakes were pilot error.
I've already seen some of those videos.
The first video I just can't understand why he continued flying over that pond with 0% battery, luckily he landed on the far side just avoiding the water! The recovery was painful to watch, the drones location was clearly visible on the map but they kept looking in completely the wrong areas and direction! 😁
Range tests over water are very risky, especially when you come back with only 50% battery!
Wind is also a factor in many Mavic Mini crashes.
Also understanding how RTH works is crucial to the long life of your Mavic Mini, set the RTH altitude according to your surroundings, set it above the highest obstacle between you and the drone!
Trees are your enemy when flying drones lol
New supporter for your channel, hopefully you'll check out my Mavic Mini related channel and connect? 👍😎
Thanks for your support and comment. I learn a lot from those videos so I made them a compilation to share. I'll try my best to keep my Mini be with me as long as possible 😆. For sure I'll check out your channel. You're English speaker. Right? I think I'll make English subtitles in my coming videos.
Definitely, most of the crashes were out of pilot's mistakes. We should keep our mind clear during flight.
@@CHCCwords Yes I'm from England, subtitles would be really helpful, thanks. 👍😎
PD Tech i was lucky im doing the same thing sometimes im filming for my video then crow attact my drone haha im happy i still able to finished the video for my channel
Can you retake over control after you press rth??
It always amazes me how many people can't fly the simplest type of drones available.
Can you fly a Northrop Grumman RQ-4 Global Hawk???
Mini is the best!
Keep flying!!!
What is the music played for #8. Beautiful. And number 4 was most likely a bird impact. I've flown extremely close to a powerline. Scared me to death. No interference.
Sorry, but the crash on 2:15 is not because of the power lines, which are powered off! I know the original youtube video. The most think it was a bird attack!
What's reason that made the power turned off?
@@CHCCwords czcams.com/video/pG2xc6PxBYQ/video.html To clarify: Those powerlines were DEAD. They were shut down in the August of 2019. They will get demolished in spring 2020. So those DIDNT affect the compass/the electronics in general...

Safe to say you shouldn't be doing a range test over water
Its so good to know that no passengers died in any of these crashes
The only crashes I've had were indoor the mini seems to have a mind of it's own when in attitude mode. The thing is a champ though i love it and most of these could have been avoided with pre flight checks.
Haha I've just have dad two crashes at home, the walls attract it! And I'm to newby to control it properly
I flew sideways into a tree which was over water. Drone fell into the water the next day(battery was dead till then). It was winter so I waited 3 weeks(!!) and went into the water to search it 3 weeks later. Found the drone, dried it, put new battery in it and it still runs as of today! Amazing little construction and I definitely learned not to fly sideways close to terrain anymore.
It's awesome. Your drone came to live again!
thats why you have propeller guard
what's this i keep seeing with people saying their drones just disconnect randomly in midair? i'm looking to buy a mavic mini but i don't want it to die for no good reason, are these random issues patched out in the firmware updates as of now?
Do not update the firmware to latest version. Just like iOS, there are bugs in the latest version every time.
So what happens when you RTH shorter than 20m?
Being a dji mini pilot, I always fly over 40m at least to avoid any obstacles
If you are about to crash your DJI drone, click RTH button once for an emergency stop 🛑. You can enable this in the settings for anyone who would like to know, hope this helped!
👇:)
I enjoyed this video a lot. Great job,and I definitely agree with you that it wasn't very funny when those kids crashed but yet they kept laughing. Again, great video, thank you!
I'm glad that you like the video. Thank you 😊
If I am flying my mini 2 over waterbody, I would definitely equip it with a water landing flotation device at least.
The 4th clip wasn’t due to the cables. Even if there was interference, the drone wouldn’t have flipped as if it got hit by something...
Perhaps you're right.
I think it was a bird or some lose props not 100% sure
I agree no way interference did that
..... pilot error
Nice flight!!
didn't know aboult flying near the power lines was a mistake
When the battery is at incredibly low levels while flying over a body of water... the mavic touches the water... the video freezes and the screen turns gray... scariest thing for a dji pilot lol
It's quite a dramatic moment😆
why can't you press Return To Home button when the drone is near by? ( I've never flew a drone myself )
I have capture mine crash recently. Where I can send it to you?
i once had crash my drone and i already learn from it. take care flying guys have a nice day!
Range test in the fookin ocean. Genius kid
This is why most places don't allow you to fly drones over populated areas
Mine has error code 1008 right out of the box. Can't figure it out
Why am i watching this while iv just order a same drone looooool
That’s why you don’t fly so high and far when your not a good pilot yet
Had a mini crash with my brand new Mavic air 2 last night..... Was coming into land and was getting a landing error. In the tutorial it shows you to put both sticks down, then in. Well it wasn't in landing mode so it flew right next to me and crashed into my glass door. I was maybe 10 ft. from the door so it didn't build much speed thank god. Anyways, moral of the story calm down and take your time if something like that happens. Damage assessment: Tiny scratch on rear left light and minor damage to one prop. I switched all props and re-calibrated everything, works just like when it was new.
OMG !!! Mavic Mini crash !!! Nice Viedeo my friend !
Keep it up!
Thanks. 😊
What are these RTH fails?
If you RTH within 20m it will slam into random ground?
If you touch controls while in RTH it also causes it to descend erratically?
I haven't flown mine yet, I'm trying to see some pilot error without being the pilot error. I see videos of people breaking out of RTH no problem though on CZcams
Thanks for sharing. I crashed my mini too. At least I learned some points here.
Most errors I've seen (at least 90%) are piloting errors and usually when the pilot was not following best practices (ie. keeping the drone visible, flying too high, or flying in windy conditions). Obviously with some pratice, some of these accidents can be avoided, such as crashing because you can't see your drone or flying in windy conditions).
I flew out to 4 miles today in 30 mph wind gusts😂
great video, I love my Mavic Mini too
3:09 I believe the cause is faulty propellers never use non DJI.
I was at tigertail beach in San Marco island flying drone. It was flying over the swam toward the beach and all of the sudden it warned there was an interferent signal with an airplane in the area even though the small airplane was a lot higher then my drone which is at only 40-50 ft high. Then my signal connected to the drone was cutoff and i totally lost control. Within 15 min I could not make any connection to my drone. Desperately I tried to search my drone through the controller but no hope. I checked my flight path ( thru my profile) and saw roughly the location of the last contact. Walking toward it about almost 1 km away, i finally gaining my signal, trying to take off but no luck because it couldnot turn the blades on. So i use the " find my drone" and walked thru the mash area. Lucky its still beeping and I found it hanging on a branch and its low enough for me to retreat it. No words described my Joy. I lost one before only a few month ago. My warning is once you lost signal contact to the drone you may not recover it for a while and you drone could drop or crash any moment and if your drone may run out battery then your chance of recovering it very little. I was lucky!
Trees and buildings also cause GPS signal bounce. GPS signal locations can be off by 10's or 100's of feet momentarily. The drone will try to go where it thinks it supposed to be and that might not be a good place.
Drone Darwin awards!
0:06 TioDVD Hobbyes is the guy who flyed the mini in the first video. He was testing it in a long range test, and got himself without battery in the return. To don loose the drone or land it in the lake below, he kept pulling until land in a grass in the lake side. His channel is about push drones (not only the mavic mini) to the limits, and that’s the reason why he almost lost his drone, but he managed to recover it in the end
I cried here more than I would at drama films. :'(
this is why i use the guards. They protect the blades and support the drone structurally
1:55 interference isn't so violent and abrupt. Looks more like a bird strike to me.
“tear dropping from eyes”
Why do people do this if you don’t know how to use a drone then don’t
Lot of crash... I had 3 times in only a month... I learn a lot.. Subbed!
Oh really? 😱
Nice format !!! You got a new subs
It is the worst feeling when a drone drops to water or you can't find it, i remember when I flew my first quadcopter into a lake many years ago and i did not want to go to the lake for 4 weeks
You don't do a fucking range test over water!!!!
Great job on educating me, thank a lot！
really have to check your surroundings, but saying that I flew mine into a tree the other week and broke one of the arms, got me by surprise, but apart from that they are alot of fun.
I am now scared for my drone’s life.
These drones are almost fool proof but of course fools continue to push the limits
poor babies, some babies were killed, some was injured, some was not,
poor mini, aint wanna die
I'm watching this video but I don't have a mavic mini 😆
My mavic mini crashed in the camera...luckily nothing happened just a little scratch
Last vid is the wkrst 4 me😂
I speak Portuguese so I will translate what he is saying in the first video. His channel name is Tio DVD Hobbies. 00:02 Is it enough? 00:04 He went into landing mode, that's it, I'm going to lose the drone, guys 00:13 Hey guys, 800 meters away, not that far 00:16 And now do you land there near the trees or do you land here in these houses? 00:19 Or do I try to keep coming back? 00:26 I will land in a known place here
It’s weird how almost all crashes the battery popes or falls out
Yep. Right.
Is an air tag too heavy for a mini?
Thank for sharing, nice content.. you have new subscriber👍
No:8 Video why Drone didn't made safe landing when pilot hit RTH Button. It should come back where it begin the flight. Right?
If mavic mini is within 20m, it will land immediately when you press RTH button.
This video just gives me so much anxiety!!!
I think they should add emergency mode that will allow to go beyond 0% and could damage the battery but the drone can fly home safe
This was entertaining but also important for us to take care at how and where you fly even if you may be the best drone pilot evet
Very good i hope i don't destroy my mavic pro i use for youtube videos. I would cry
stuck up a tree, my worst nightmare.
