    Good video for those wanting to get a drone. I searched many videos to learn as much as I could before I ever pulled the trigger on buying one.

    First time watching- subscribed after watching this. Love the succinct explanations and video examples of each point. I've only flown micro drones and I'm thinking about getting a larger drone and want to do my due diligence first. These videos are just what I was looking for.

  • @Photographicelements
    @Photographicelements Před 7 lety +5

    Great video! with practice, a drone can emulate cinematic camera and dolly moves; for example, the Mavic has "Point of Interest" mode, where drone flies in a perfect circle around a subject. We've found that flying near large metal buildings causes interference; the Mavic lost control, rotated vertically, then accelerated for 20' slamming into a building.
    On a recent shoot, in 115 degree temperatures, the Mavic & Phantom 4 Pro would not start up; even our phones (for monitoring) kept shutting down; we waited in the shade for temps to cool to 100, then everything worked normally.

    This is a really great video to watch. Darious not only gave really good information on the subject. But unlike others I have watched on this, he pointed out to be careful to not hurt anyone. Others, "so you don't damage your..." Just shows what is the real focus and not the normal selfish. Enjoyed the humor and easy flow. (And I am one of those that ripped open the box and ran for the back yard) Directions are for the mondain! Or, and as my partners says; "Idiot" LoL

    @JamesEhler Před 3 lety

    When you introduced the app that shows restricted airspace and showed the first view of the map, it was like directly a map of the area around my house. Like my house was almost dead center. Haha. With that being said, I also was able to recognize alot of the areas in which you flew. Well at least I think I did. Haha. Im going to say perhaps East Tucson? At any rate, if your ever near or in East Tucson and need anything, hit me up. Im always around, can fix anything and willing to help when people need it. Not many people are anymore, it seems like. Anyways. Good video. Very informative, no unnecessary nonsense and no terrible music with no talking and just subtitles, very entertaining to keep the viewer/learner engaged in paying attention to what your saying, which helps to retain said information. I was surprised when the video finished, because it didnt seem like 7-8 minutes since I was engaged and paying attention. Good job

      #2: He is flying in an area littered with prickly pear cactus which is everywhere here in the sonoran desert
      #3: The shot of him in the alleyway showing the anti collision capabilities has a blue trash can that says Tucson Waste and Recycling
      #4: The shot of him standing in one of the previously mentioned prickly pear patches shows the the backside of Davis-Monthan air force base which is in.......Tucson

Landed on a pergola roof in the end ,dog would not quit and owner was not able or willing to leash said mutt. Was lucky, so you never know you can't always plan for everything.

    I thought of what might be an easier way to get you're drone back when you get disoriented as to which way it's facing. Just switch it into the headless mode and then you can pull the stick back and it should come back towards you no matter where the front is facing.
