The DJI Mavic Pro is still an amazing drone. If you are looking for a workhorse drone that takes amazing video, is easy to fly and very portable, the DJI Mavic Pro is worth considering. Of course there are newer versions out now, but the Mavic Pro is still a solid choice and the price has come down considerably. If you have a new Mavic Pro and want to see how you set it up and fly it for the first time, this video will walk you through that process.

![DJI MAVIC PRO Review - Part 3 - [6 Mile In-Depth Range Test]](/img/n.gif)
170 feet high up and rock solid like a tripod. this thing is awesome!
Great video. The shitty manual didn't even explain how to remove the props among other things.
Important steps for new people always before flying: 1. Make sure you know how to return your drone to your home location if you loose sight of it.
2. Set the height higher than any building nearby in case you loose sight of it. 3. When it says low battery and suggests to return home, return home.
4. watch for airplanes etc.
super excited, just got mine today!
My Mavic Pro comes tomorrow, I can't wait. will be coming back to this video for sure.
Good video !!!
I bought one yesterday, but I am watching as many videos as possible before I fly it.
Thanks for the video !
Great video! I received the mine yesterday with the fly more pack! your video has helped me for my first set up and flight
I've watched loads of reviews, as a customer waiting for my mavic I found yours to be one of the best, straight forward to the point and informative.... thank you for taking the time
Awesome! Thanks for watching!
Just got mine yesterday. Can't wait to un box it. I'm ready to fly. 👍 sweet video.
As for the clamp hiding the home button of the iphone, you can use Dremel tool to cut a semicircular hole to gain access to it. Or write to DJI to include the semicircular hole in their next batch of production.
That's good advice. It seems like DJI would have thought that people would want access to the home button on an iPhone. But the easiest work around is to take the phone out each time. It works, but it's a bit of a pain. Dremel tool is probably the best way to go. Thanks for watching!
I'm interested in buying the Mavic, will be watching any complaints that may come up from the first users. Hope DJI will listen to their customer base and improve their product in the next production run. Thanks for pointing out the inconvenience of having to remove the phone to access the home button. It should be a trivial fix by modifying their subcontractor's molding fixture. Anyway, perhaps a third party will come with an alternate holding fixture to accommodate a larger display such as the ipad mini.
Honestly, I ordered mine the day it came out, so I got one from the first runs. DJI came out with four firmware patches before I got mine. and the app is being updated all the time. They just came out with the DJI Go 4 app to replace the original, its a lot more polished and they have included newer offerings from the Mavic Pro, Phantom 4/4+, Inspire 2 and I believe the new Matrice. Between the firmware releases and app updates, DJI has outdone themselves.
Rumors is they will come out with Phantom 5. A more frequent model change than the car makers. Unless you travel a lot, there is no much place to fly near home. Each town has its own ordinances, I doubt the council members have ever flown a drone. Noise abatement should not be used an excuse. When flying 150 ft. and above, the noise level is less than the commercial airplanes.
Your info is great and slow, thorough enough to remember
I just got my Dji mavic pro in time for my vacation I cannot wait to use it. Thanks for the great video
I just bought mine and waiting for delivery, I'm so excited I can't wait to take it for a flight!!! Thanks for the video!
I have been searching videos on how to fly and this video is really the best so far. Thanks!
Thank you. Just got my dji mavic and cant wait to get started. Great beginners guide.
Very good
Hi "Ready Set Go".I recently got my Mavic and enjoying it.
I've been flying DJI products since their VERY FIRST FLYING CAMERA ("drone"). I started out way back when Colin Guinn was the head of DJI America. I was at a NAPP conference and he was there and I got to meet him and I'll never forget, Colin was there to unveil the Phamtom 2.0 which had that big bulky camera connected to it (as opposed to the original Phantom which required you to purchase your own GoPro and attached it to the underside and had no gimbal to pan the camera. There is a mic on the GoPro so you'd hear all the annoying noises that the original, cheap, crappy props made). I have had literally every iteration of the Phantom series, 3 Inspires - 1 Inspire and 2 Insprire Pro Professional models. All that said, I LOVE LOVE THE MAVIC PRO PLATINUM so much. I could list the reasons but there's just so many great things about this little aircraft it'd be a very long list.
Great video, thanks. I have an Inspire 1, and my Mavik pro just shipped. Will be a few months until deployment is over, can't wait to play with the Mavik!! Keep posting vids!!
Thanks! Loving the Mavic. I don't have an Inspire, but hoping to get ahold of a DJI P4 Pro soon!
I just got one, can wait to fly it!
Whisper......"We live in Texas...lots of people with guns....Spooky".....LOL.
I died XD
That was too funny!!
Manuel A. Díaz mmm mim. L 🐴🐴🐴🐴🐴
I live in ET and hes right we got our guns and our drones .
It had me dying 😆
I got this yesterday and looking forward to flying it
Thanks for sharing this! We just got ours - here's hoping it transforms our travel films
Great Video! just got my Mavic yesterday. Never flown a drone before but this was the perfect video for me to watch and get started! :D
Thank you a lot! Just bought one today and you have helped me more than you know
Thanks,I am in process of getting DJI Mavic Pro and you have convinced me!
This has been very helpful, although another video said if you fly with the plastic cover over the camera it can overheat your drone due to it blocking the air intake.
Great demo, you made it look super easy
Love the video and as I am learning it from my son so nice to see involving your son and sharing great time together.
Thanks! My son is in many of my videos. Thanks for the comment!
Great job just got my Mavic and you have helped me set it up super quick. Keep up the good work.
Fantastic. I can't wait to fly mine! I've just got one but the weather where I live is BOOOOO!
Thank you (and your son) for taking the time to create these videos and sharing them with us. I am researching drones for my husband's birthday gift in a few weeks, and these videos have been incredibly helpful to me.
I was so glad to hear you mention that "you can barely hear it." Noise is the #1 reason I am now looking into the Mavic Pro instead of the Phantom 4 Pro that I was initially leaning toward. To what extent does the noise difference between drone models impact where/when you are comfortable flying? Have you ever chosen not to fly in a certain area (like your neighborhood) because of drone noise, or has noise ever influenced your choice of which drone to fly on a given day? Bottom line: I'm hoping that by going with the Mavic Pro, the lower noise level will enable my husband to fly in places where a louder drone might attract too much attention. We live in a densely populated part of Houston, and our neighbors have guns, too!
Just purchased mine today, this video was super helpful. Thank you!
Just got ours today, ordered total of 3 extra batteries and a GPC military grade case with cutouts for everything, really nice product and probably the best for the price
As a new owner I appreciate your video, I loved it and watched it all the 20 minutes thank you
Glad to hear it! Safe flying!
no problem, I have invested quiet some time watching your video over and over , I also learned that they have insurance for my drone with 0 deductible so I insured it because I am sure as being new to this hobby I will crash it somewhere and it is hard to come up with another 1k to buy another one.
Really good video on the Mavik, looking for the next?
Thanks for this video. I just received my drone and plan on taking it for a spin tomorrow. Wish me luck!
Good luck!
Thanks for the video! Very informative with basic instructions on set up!
Just got 1 today. Ordered from DJI. They said it would ship after the 18th, and be delivered by 10:30 this morning; and it was. Thrilled. Great starter video.(and camera guy). Amazingly smooth video without having tripod mode on--no motion at all at 170'. Thanks!!
+JAY STATON Enjoy it. The Magic is a blast to fly!!!
hey man. waiting for my mavic which is my first drone. great video!
Thanks this was very helpful as I have never flown a drone before and don't know anyone that has one so I am on my own just searching around to learn how to do it all right.
Just got my drone today and it kept saying not connected which was frustrating but it finally downloaded like yours did so that was helpful. I will try tomorrow to take it out weather permitting.
I got mine last Friday !! ( I feel like a child ,LOL) I trying now pictures, and the resolution is awesome ! I will try flying out of my neighborhood first. ,let you know guys
Fidelito in South Florida do the footage Get Stored on your phone?
Mathiasbredesen nope , only in the SD Card , is that wrong ?
Fidelito in South Florida They should automatically be in the editor section of the DJI Go app. There should be lower resolution versions of the pictures and videos you have shot. You can download the full resolution versions in the editor if you have connected to your aircraft and save them to your mobile device as well.

Excellent video. Very helpful.
Thanks for your fleshed out review of this. About the 6th review of the Mavic I've see with nary a negative issue with it. At this point I can't wait to get this.
Thank you thank you and thank you!!!! You have saved me bunch of headaches. My brain was about to explode trying to figure out how to set up my drone, I was missing simple steps and my controller wouldn't light up until I came accross your video. . J ... you are a life saver. You got yourself a new subscriber. Thank you!
Glad to hear it! Thanks for sharing that comment - made my day!
Enjoyed your video, I can't wait till mine gets here. Looking forward to learn more about the Mavic from you. Thanks
Thanks! Yes - the Mavic is amazing. I'm shooting more footage today. Have a great weekend.
thank you - that was exactly what I needed !
GREAT AND INFORMATIVE VIDEO! This helped me as a noob get mine off the ground. Thank you!
Glad to hear it!
Incredible Work 👍
Thanks for the video, this is really quite a awesome Machine.
When you mentioned the mandatory software upgrade, ice began to wonder if DJI has control of all drones at any particular time? In other words can they program drones to not work?
Great Video... I just got in a Mavic Pro and needed a good video for my customers. Yours will work great. Have you checked out the Eclipse Rovers for when you can't fly you Mavic?
I think that you will like what they can do.
thank you so much for this video.. I just got my drone and watching this as I charge everything up
Great video, appreciate all the time. I want to buy this model.
great video for learning. thank you.
Thanks for a good short introduction of the Mavic Pro.
I just got my new Mavic today after 7 weeks in order. (Denmark)
The batteries are being charged now, and tomorrow I'll get a new 7 "Tablet (Do NOT have Iphone)
And then I'm ready for first test flight for the weekend.
BR.
Thanks so much! Very comprehensive review!
Haha, love the boy's comment - "Better get it from over the guys house - this is Texas, everybody's got guns!" Haha. Great video, will help getting mine airborne. Thanks!
Nice video! I own a mavic pro and I get fantastic results!
Excellent video - thanks so much for making it. 👍👌🙌💯💯
Perfect Video tutorial , Thanks
Looking forward to flying it , looks fab ..Krissi
Thanks Krissi! It's an amazing quad and really worth getting. Hope all is well on your side of the pond!
thanks a lot. it's very helpful for me
Thanks for a nice video, nicely detailed 👍🏻
Awesome work, thanks mate!!
You are most welcome! Thanks for watching!
Awesome commentary... 'We live in Texas!'
Someone gonna shoot it down. lol
Love your son's comment " we live in Texas,people have guns" ,,,great review,I'm a massive DJI fan and I'm now going to buy it :-)
Kelly. Well, it's finally arrived. Had to upgrade to a smart phone which is learning process in and of itself. Gonna take my time and learn this thing properly. Thanks for your videos. They're EXTREMELY informative. Can't wait til I have enough under my belt to really get out there and make some great shots. My Son already wants to use it. He's got a mining claim up here which he wants to survey. Lol. Told him he's at least gotta wait til dad gets the thing in the air first. 'Kids'. Gotta love 'em. He's got a nice Phantom 4 but know he wants a Mavic bad. I'll talk him into it. Thx again for your videos.
Awesome! Happy and safe flying!
Lol. Thx. Now if and when I can figure out how to get 'Grey Eagle' off the ground. Sorry to admit but I'm totally illiterate when it comes to smart phones (which I had to purchase) and finally got the DJI GO 4.0 downloaded. Hey, at least I've managed to get the controller to talk to the drone so far (about 2 a.m..). Just takin' my time and trying to learn it right. Looks like it's gonna be fun. My Son wants to use it bad. I'll get him to get one, you watch. He's in Tenn. working right now, darn it. Thx again for the awesome videos. Please be well.
Thank you for your demonstration
you haven't show to calibrate the drone...
Very helpful and informative.
Thanks! Hope you guys are having fun and safe travels!
Thank you!
ARE YOU DRUNK ??
Kelly. Thx to you and your Son for the video. It's been very informative. I've always loved anything that flies.
My Son got me interested in drones a couple years ago and have wanted one I could fly since. Alas, I'm pushing 70 yrs. with one leg and a really bad spine it's been hard for me to justify buying a system unless it could compensate for my disabilities. After a few intermittent systems, my Son finally purchased a Phantom 4. He dropped by during Thanksgiving and flew it for me. He also down loaded a few videos he'd taken off the coast of Humbolt where he lives that are just breath taking. Needless to say, I was impressed but the system proved just too bulky for me. I'm not nearly the pilot that he has become and I certainly can't go around chasing the thing anymore. Then he told me about the Mavic PRO.
I did my research on the PRO and knew that this was the guy for me. I just ordered one along with an advanced kit offered through Drone World here in Ca.. It comes with two extra batteries, gang charger, carry case, extra chips... Just a load of extra doohickeys and thingamabobs. All for $1,500. I'm really looking forward to using this little beast. That and it'll make one heck of a neat little high tech cat chaser (much too the chagrin of my poor cat Booger I'm sure). It's hard to believe the quality of technology that's been engineered into these little machines. Wish me luck and have fun with yours.
Thanks for the note Paul. The Mavic is amazing and I think you will have a great time flying it. I would recommend that you buy a less expensive drone to practice on as well Syma X5C, Syma X5UC or Syma X5UW are all great and less than $100 USD. They are actually harder to fly than the Mavic, but that's what makes them useful. Get good at flying those and the Mavic will be a breeze! Thanks again for your note and please let me know how your first flight with the Mavic goes!
Thx Kelly. Mine won't be here til around Jan-Feb as they're backlogged. My Son Jordan had bought me a practice drone with which to learn. Was doing fairly well til a motor froze on it. Lol. I'm fine as long as it's going away. It's when it's heading back I tend to have problems. That and walking to get too it. It's funny. I've designed and build scores of aircraft all my life, just never quite got the knack of remote piloting. Not like hang gliding. Went out, bought a kite and taught myself how to fly. For me, that was natural. What sold me on the Mavic is that it should in large part compensate for my limited mobility. It would be fun to be able to fly with my Son and grandson. I glad you can have this time with your son together. Alas, I wish I still could. Cherish your time.
