What great times we are living in…getting this much information on a topic/tool/instrument for free and that too from experts like him. I just can’t express how grateful I’m to all creators in CZcams 😊
Thanks - much appreciated!
It is the "information age"
Facts man, Facts.
I was thinking earlier he can get PAID for info like this!
@@Matanumi I wonder what the next age will be and if we live long enough to figure it out
As a cyclist, I can't fathom how she couldn't have seen the drone. If you're not paying any more attention to your path than that, you don't need to be on a bike. Absolutely brilliant video, btw. I'm getting mine in a couple of days and this has given me a lot more confidence in learning it. Thank you!
It's not possible, she must have seen it and just didn't care. The psychopath on the cycle path syndrome.
it was humour
My thoughts exactly!
WHAT is up with having to BIND your drone to get the DJI Refresh plan AND you have to do it within 48 hours of activation. That’s some BS with DJI. If I bought the plan when I purchased it online then I should HAVE it! WHY do I have to “bind” it and within 48 hours of activation. And why don’t they explain that upon purchase????? Just merely curious. I’m pretty sure it was weeks after I activated before I knew about binding it but it said it took. 🤷🏾♂️
Thinking that TODAY will be the day I order online the Mini 4 Pro even though I haven’t sold my Mini 3 Pro as of yet.
Crazy how he took the time to shoot all of the footage and explained it very well. Also, the editing is on point. Thanks for the tutorial.
I just bought my first drone today from Best Buy, the DJI Mini 4 Pro, on 12.28.2023. I’ve been watching this video on repeat. I’ve gone back and forth to rewatch certain things; man, I must say all the information I’m looking for and awareness is in here! Thank you. I’ll definitely subscribe.
Thanks!!!
I can 100% relate to this comment. Thank you ❤
I rarely watch a video in it’s entirety if it’s above 15-20 minutes. Except this was done so skillfully and it was so informative. Thanks for all the effort you put into making this video for us!
spell binding if like me you hadnt touched drone worlds for 10 years since first DJIs
You were born to explain things to idiots such as myself.. this video saved me untold time learning all this. Many thanks.
Thanks!!!
I just want to add my appreciation for the time and effort you put into this excellent video. As a new Mini 4 Pro owner and new drone pilot, I'm truly grateful. I like how thoroughly but also quickly you run through all the features. First rate!!
Well said and I agree 100%! I too am a new mini 4 Pro owner and drone pilot. I also agree on finding a large open field or such to practice. I instead started at a beach/sea shore and I had some scary moments! Fantastic tutorial!!
This was the most useful video on the internet for my new drone! I really appreciate the MONSTROUS effort you put forth to make this video. Absolute game changer
I bought the DJI mini pro 4 after much deliberation between that and the air 3. Comes in a few days and I wanted to say thank you for all the effort you’ve put into this video. Should make my first flight that much easier.
How has your mini 4 been treating you?
Really good! Haven’t flown it half as much as I’d like but it’s amazing. Only gripe so far, don’t really like to have it out in windy conditions (of which there have been loads here lately). Don’t really have any frame of reference but it’s an excellent purchase
What would you consider windy conditions
Very nice explanation!
No long periods of time talking about functions, a nice brisk pace and that's great. And luckily no background music either ;-)
Thank you very much!
This is fantastic. As someone who likes to shoot video but has avoided getting a drone because I thought it required ALOT more skill to operate, it's nice to see this guide.
well you thought wrong all it takes is spatial awareness and understanding of controls
THIS IS THE MOST COMPREHENSIVE & THE BEST VIDEO for Mini 4 PRO. Thank you so much for making this for beginner pilots like me!
I got my DJI 4 pro today and after watching this video I am more then confident to get my hands on it and start using it immediately. Thank you for taking time and ensuring all the important modes of the new drone are covered. Much appreciated.
Man this tutorial is perfect I never watch full videos an hour long.
I just bout the mini 4 pro couple days ago would of taken me years to figure all that out.
Legend!
Amazingly thorough! Just got my DJI 4 mini pro and this video was perfect to get me going. I'm watching it again to make sure I didn't miss anything. Thank you!
This is the best tutorial on CZcams for the DJI mini 4 pro! I appreciate all your knowledge and the ability to share it concisely and effectively!
Thank you so much for this video. I've had a DJI Mavic Mini for a few years now, and finally got a Mini 4 Pro fly more combo plus set. I had no idea how advanced it actually was, and this video helped me greatly!👍
cannot ask for a better tutorial
Thank you for this. I am retired but a gadget geek and about to buy a Mini 4 pro. Your vid as a reference point made so many things clearer and it has given me confidence. Thank you!
I just bought one the other day. After registering it since it has the plus batteries, i took it out, and im impressed on how well it flies on a windy day. It's a great little drone!
This video was extremely informative and easy to follow along with. I’ve never had a drone before and was kind of hesitant to even use it because I was scared that I would break it and now after looking at your video I’m very comfortable with it and I appreciate it.
You and me both I got mines three days ago
I cannot thanks enough how much i am appreciated that your time and information you gather all in to one video, just got Mini 4 before start first came to your video, very much confidence to start and fly now, thanks 🥂
Great information from this fast talker😃; slowed him down to .75 and it still sounds natural. Thanks for posting.
I always thought that one needs a lot of experience before flying a drone. This video showed how easy it can be. So much information and details! Thanks a lot for that.
Awesome tutorial! Thanks for this. I've been flying the Mini 2 for awhile and plan to upgrade to the 4 Pro later this fall. This is a great way to start preparing for my upgrade. 👍
Literally just got my mini 4 pro today and have not even unboxed it. So thank you kindly, you have a fan for life.
Thank you very much for this very helpful introductory video! As a brand new drone owner, found this to be a great resource to get started. Now to practice everything you shared.
I have been thinking about buying a drone ever since "using" drones in video games like Ghost Recon Wildlands. I've always wanted to find a collection of videos to use as easy to learn instructions. You have made all of those in one video. Explained everything in an easy to digest form and in a short but ample time. Thank you. I now feel I have enough knowledge to buy a mini pro 4 and get some clips that make me look far more accomplished than I really am 🙂
Amazing video, it was really helpful especially since I just want to buy my first drone to see if it'll be something that I'll enjoy. The thing that always bothered me with the previous mini models is that they didn't have omnidirectional objects avoidance.
Just bought this pro 4. Mega drone. Couldn’t figure out how to start active track. Watched all this videos and learned more than I planned. Great video 👊🏻
Brand new to owning a dji 4 drone and first drone ever that is. So cool getting all this info in one go. Probably going to rewatch this a couple of times. Thx for this.
This is the burger with everything video, it has the lot! Got the dji4 yesterday, first drone, and after watching all the utube channels, this one is by far the best.
Thank you very much.
best video explaining and teaching the basics . Even a new person who wants to experience or wants to learn , it's very helpful.
thanks man!! for putting efforts. 😇✌🏻
Great stuff!! Just got my digi mini 4 pro and this was exactly what I needed! Clear and concise and I really appreciate how efficiently you delivered the info. I normally watch videos on 1.5 speed but no need for this, it was all valuable info with no filler. 👍👍
Thanks for this, I just bought my dji mini pro 4 this afternoon, good thing I found your tutorial, I cant wait to apply all the things that Ive learned from you, when I practice flying my drone tomorrow.
Great tutorial, thanks. Just bought my first drone ever, this mini pro 4. This video gave me the confidence to give it a try without being afraid to crash the drone in a couple of minuts.
Bought the mini 4 pro today. Watching the video before I open the box. Very well done. Thank you for your excellent job.
Thanks mate, excellent video - Im walking all around Australia for a kids cancer charity (after my own fight with stage 4 head and neck cancer) dressed as the superhero Captain Australia - and I just bought one of these drones and unpacking it is intimidating. You've given a great and solid rundown, humanised and easy, thanks bro
Fantastic! Superb tutorial. Thank-you very much 👍 I have neverv owned a drone, as I thought they were a bit geeky and silly, but after renovating my camper and buying some camera equipment I've now seen the benefits of owning one! Never to old to learn at 56!
Very helpful comprehensive guide. Last DJI I flew was a phantom 4. This was a great help to get the most of drone.
Wow!! This was a very detailed tutorial in how to fly the DJi MP4 drone. I just purchased one a couple days ago and have not flown it yet. I want to insure to watch your tutorial and read the docs first. After your video, it has all I need to get started and more. Thank you so very much. I think DJi should use your video for folks purchasing their drone. Excellent information. Thank you.
Considering this as my first drone. The vid is excellent and pushing me over the edge! Thanks.
This is by far the best video I have watched, and I don't usually watch videos that are over 20 minutes. My drone will be here Monday, so I wanted to watch as many videos as possible so that I have a better understanding of what to prepare for. Absolutely AMAZING job showing all the features with great examples! Kudos to you sir!
Great tutorial that quickly covers the potential of the drone. Exactly what I was looking for.
Thanks!!!
@@Dcrainmaker is there a drone or a way to add audio recording? i want to use a drone to record my kids sports (football & soccer) but would like some audio. thank you in advance.
@@reyray5 The drone itself doesn't record any audio. Instead, you'll want another mic for that, and then mix the audio afterward together with a video editing app. In the case of field sports, an action cam might work well, since it's going to capture audio from many sources, though honestly, just using the voice recorder app on an older phone you might have lying around would work too.
@@Dcrainmaker I really appreciate your reply. thank you and great video straight to the point no bullshit and packed with great info. i will subscribe and keep watching.
Got the drone for Christmas. Saw the entire video and I must admit it was very clear and structured. I understood everything with ease and now I am ready to become a drone pilot ;)
Excellent instructions... think I'll shop for a mini 4 tomorrow... I have a mini 2 that needs a cell phone... screw that. Will definitely use this video as a reference
Thanks. I just got the mini 4 pro yesterday. I charged it but did not power it on yet. I wanted to learn how it works first. Your tuturial is a great help ! Thanks !
Amazing video, thank you. I have just bought the Mini 4 Pro as my first drone and this has taught me sooo much. Pace, clarity, detail, all spot on.
@jonnystirling Got mine today, watching this awesome video!
I'm.getting mine in 2 days guys, can't wait!!
Got mine tonight
@@thetruth3514 I ended up getting mine yesterday and it's been raining ever since... Ahh England
Stunning video! Just bought it yesterday, it's sat on the chair looking at us "fly me" fly me!" it's saying....in a bit, watch the video again first! Thank you! Really important tips. :)
I just watched 54 minutes straight, the value and knowledge share was top tier. Got a sub instantly for this! I appreciate everything you put into making this.
Thank you for all of this information. This video is now officially my manual. I also appreciate that you are instructing with ethics. Cheers.
Just bought my new mini 4 pro and I’m happy you created such a video. Big thank you from my side as well. Keep it up!
This the best video i watched and learned (still waiting for the Mini 4 pro to arrive at my doorstep) before flying a drone. Thanks for the great video.
The best tutorial I have watched. Very useful to the point information. Thank you!
The best video on CZcams for DJI Mini 4 pro because of your great in depth explanation I have made my decision. Thanks
I love that you talk fast - STRAIGHT TO THE POINT
That windy conditions at the end is so cool, shows the capability of the drone!
Thinking about getting a drone. This is a superb video that explains the working and flying clearly and concisely. Thankyou very much
Amazing tutorial thank you. No fluff telling me straight and quick thanks.
So happy I found this video. I am looking to get my first drone and I want a "good and simple" one with the potential to be awesome with the right piloting. This tutorial was great! You put me over the edge, and I am totally going to buy a mini 4 pro. :D
You just got yourself a subscriber for life, buddy! Looking forward for more!
First time drone user, first beginner video- this was so great!
A comprehensive explanation of all the information, thank you
Very educational. I love the mastershot option. It just makes the process of making B-rolls much easier!
i was going to buy a second user 3 --- but now I am going to get the 4 and all the trimmings THANKS
Your expertise is truly impressive! Well done, and thank you. As others noted, I'm genuinely sorry about the unfortunate issue with your drone. -a new subscriber.
Thank you so much this will help me a lot. I was mainly looking how to fly, the camera stuff is way too complicated for me except the basics. I'll go back once I get the flying and basic camera down! Thanks again
An excellent tutorial. Take your kit out and follow along step by step.
Just a small tip on hand-catching the drone which is fairly safe. Put your hand below the drone..it will try to avoid your hand by going up a bit. Hold the left control and press it towards you i.e. press it so the drone comes down. Continue pressing it until it says "Landing". The drone will land in your hand and props will stop rotating. The spining route can be dangerous and looks like a bit more effort.
A fantastic, comprehensive and interestin tutorial, thank you so much. Bought one of these after assuring myself it was the right product for me - only after watching your incredible video!
Amazing video. Thank you very much for the time spent to show all these modes and options to us! As a beginner I found this as a wonderful tutorial from the beginning to the end. I’m sorry for the loss of your previous drone.
Awsome video thanks man. Just picked up my mini 4 pro. Nice upgrade from my antique dji can't wait to fly it
Great video and one you can go back, watch again, and learn even more.
I just picked this drone up and This was a great video showing some of the best features of it. Thank you for putting it together!
I’ve had the 4 a few days now. I had 1200 flights on a 2 so it was time to upgrade. Few things I’ve noticed- tons more features that will take practice and adjusting. The 4 is not as fun to fly. I’m sure this will change with practice but the 4 doesn’t seem to fly as good. Kind of choppy and wobbly. It doesn’t show in video but the 4 seems less stable looking at it from the ground. The 4 is a drone built around a camera and the 2 was more like a drone with a camera on it. I’m sure I’ll get used to it and maybe I can make it fly better with some adjustments. Also, the drone gets hot fast. I am using a Bissell air filter ( like a little drum with clean air being blown out the top). It will work perfect to keep heat under control while transferring pics. It’s definitely way quieter. One other thing I have to work on is making the map smoother. It lags. It looks choppy and that bugs me. These are just a few things I noticed after a day or two.
I will say one more thing if you made it this far in my ramble. The 2 is a way better first drone. I’d be lost if the 4 was my first drone. The 2 is clearly less capable but it forces you to focus more on flying. There isn’t so many camera options which become a distraction. Oh, one other thing… is pricing. For a beginner a 2 is cheap especially a recon. When it comes to pricing if you are upgrading to the 4, there are a couple decent financing options for people who don’t have $1200 laying around. QVC has like 4 pay plan ( no mp4 yet though). Also, I seen I think it’s called Flexshopper? They will finance a drone from Best Buy and I don’t think you need great credit. I considered it because I think it has a 90 day payoff kind of thing.
Great job with this video! It is one of the most comprehensive and detailed videos you could possibly hope for any sort of tech especially for a beginner. I really wasn’t expecting this level of easy to understand step-by-step instructions. I have learned that tutorial skills are as much of an art as anything else.
thank you!!! I just got one, it's my first drone, and I have no clue, can't wait to watch this whole video
I just bought one after watching this video, can't wait to try it out and thank you for the in depth review!
Best introductory video I've seen, and I've pretty much seen all of them. Beautiful countryside as well. Bedankt from California!
Dude.... just Dude. You are the boss. Well edited video.
I have a Mini Pro 4 and was intimidated and now I'm excited. I'll watch your video several times. Thank you very much.
Awesome video, just got my drone so many thanks for this. Weather permitting will be taking it out for first flight tomorrow. So this was super helpful 👍
Was waiting for this video! Thank you very much. Haven‘t seen it yet, but it is as great as your Mini 3 Pro video for sure :D
It should be noted that your Mini 3 Pro beginners guide video made me buy a drone in the first place!
Yeah me too 😂
All my doubts are ‘hands down’ cleared… Thanks for such an informative video
Just got mine half an hour ago, this video was that sealed the deal on my purchase!
Totally agree, Don't use the heavy prop guard. Just use a thick rubber band.
Just got the mini 4 pro, this video has been Soooo helpful. Thank you so much!!!
Great tutorial, as always, although would have been great to see the new Cruise Control option featured. One extra point, the MP3 Pro batteries aren’t “fully” compatible with the MP4 from a weight standpoint, as they weigh a few grams more and using MP3 batteries in the MP4 takes the weight up to about 253g - over the 249 weight.
Perfect!! Mine just arrived and this is a great help. Thanks.
Thank you so much for this video. I just ordered the same drone the other day for my trip to Iceland. I can't wait to try and get epic shots.
I picked up my first drone today to film ADV riding and training. I feel like I know stuff about drones now after watching your how-to vid. Thanks man. I subscribed to help your channel.
Waiting for my 4 pro to be delivered, great to see what I can do and learn some of the features before it comes, everything I've learned about Drones is from CZcams.
Wow, What an excellent video and description. I am very much an "old" hobbiest just starting out. I just purchased a Mini 4. Thank you
Great video.. got my drone and was airborn in an hour using most of the features! cheers!
Thank you so much for this! Was super overwhelmed and this helped focus my learning.
Once again you really laid it out where it made sense to me, you are one of two people I get my drone advice from, thank you for sharing
fantastic as always! the bike accident is insane.
This is the best guide going around.
thankkk you!! I finally got my mini pro 4. Can't wait to watch this again to get started!
This is a really helpful video. Explains a lot very succinctly and clearly! Thank you. I will watch this again until "I get it".
New mini 4 purchaser and your video is superb. Massive thank you!
Many thanks for this. Fantastic guide for a new drone user!
