😮…this is one hell of a video. On behalf of all beginners out there, i salute you. Thank you so much for you time and effort to make this happen. This is the class you need to get the PhD on this model 😅. Very well done my man 🤘🏼

[TimEDGAR]

With this you don’t need to spend hours watching all the other videos out there. This is brilliant and extremely comprehensive. Thank you.

[fergy]

This is what all
“how to beginners guide “ videos should be like. Way to go. amazingly informative. Thank you!

[carlosuhlmann]

This is by far the most comprehensive and thorough video on the DJI Mini 4 Pro. It covers every aspect of this drone and it's truly the only video needed for those that fly this amazing drone. I can only imagine the time and effort that it must have taken to put this superb video together. Thank you very much! Needless to say, I subscribed and gave you a well-deserved thumbs up!

[bobedwardson]

I really love your videos, they are very helpful and easy to follow even at 73 years old. Thank you.

[mikejduk]

After unpacking my DJI Mini 4 Pro, the first thing I thought of was, 'I hope Mathew has done a video on this drone!'. So glad to see you have and as I expected, your thorough coverage of all we need to know is excellent. Best Drone instructions on YT. Many thanks.

[robertoreilly]

Thank you. This is the most thorough, most organized, clearly expressed, eloquent instructional video I have ever seen! You are amazing.

[gisham]

I know I'm late to the party on this one, but I feel compelled to say that this is, by far, the best video I have seen on this topic, and I have watched many. It's thorough, comprehensive and answered many questions that other guide videos left unanswered. I have watched a number of your other videos, and they all exemplify the same no-nonsense, info-packed content presented in an easy-to-watch, high-production-value video.

Great job, sir!

Today I purchased my first drone ever. I am 60 years old and I have to say how much I appreciate you making a video like this!!! Absolutely brilliant!!! Watching this I had a feeling that most things I need to know are in this video. Tomorrow the weatherforcast looks really good so I will go out there and try some of the things you've explained in this video. Thank you so much for all your efford. I really really appreciate this.

I rarely comment on videos, but this video deserves a comment. This is exceptional. You are one hell of a person to put this together. DJI owes you a debt of gratitude and so much more. This video is incredibly helpful and incredibly well produced.

Thank you for an unbelievably comprehensive, clear, fast-paced, no-nonsense video guide which should be compulsory viewing for every M4P owner. It's like a 90-minute Netflix documentary but they have a crew of 100+ whereas I suspect this was all your own work! I couldn't begin to count the number of clips, stills, graphic overlays etc which you have edited together so smoothly but it must have taken days/weeks to create. Kudos too for the glitch-free audio which runs at the right level throughout but must have required a good few takes. The only thing that I noticed was missing was any reference to HLG colour mode but I assume you must have had a reason for that. I think there's one error: DJI's version of H265 doesn't create smaller files (I wish it did or at least gave us that option) but instead allegedly gives us more detail in the video than H264. I can't believe how many annoying ad interruptions there were but can't begrudge you the coin you deserve for this masterpiece. 🎖🏆🏅

Great video. No bells, whistles or hysterical commentary. Just clear, concise instructions in a perfectly modulated voice. Now looking forward to my first flight👍

Ive been watching beginner mini4 pro videos for hours during the last month. I got my new mini 4 last week. Of all of the videos I have watched, yours is obviously a ten out of ten compared to the others I've watch. You organization is superb! Detail is amazing! It is the most complete comprehensive introduction I have ever seen. So I'm subscribing and dumping all of those other presenters. Thank you

[bibinernakulam]

Really commentable. No one else explained so detailed like you explained.

[NathanielBlank]

I'm one of those terrible people that never likes videos or subscribes to anything but I am here. I thought I knew my Mini 4 Pro but wow I learned a lot more. Thanks!

[DermotWelsh]

The most comprehensive video out there for the DJI Mini 4 Pro. For the English speaking world, this is all you need to begin your journey.

[Boorabee]

Thank you thank you thank you. Absolutely brilliant I don’t know who you knew all that it’s an incredible amount of info and you did it exceptionally well great video. I had a bit of trouble setting up my mini 4 pro. I didn’t realise I didn’t need their activation code for their care plan I thought it was just an activation code to use the drone. All their instructions are a bit vague. I worked it out eventually. Your videos are brilliant you didn’t stuff around with meaningless chat I think your the best person I have ever seen on you tube. I will be watching your video over and over till I am competent in fly and using the features. I can not thank you enough. Thanks again from me from Australia.

Simply the Best Beginner's Guide video for the Mini Pro 4...Very well done!!!

[Rachid_Bee]

Best beginners guide on YouTube!thanks for taking the time to make it!!🙏🏽

[richardkinkead]

All the positive comments below are facts. Truly comprehensive. I wish other intro guides were and are like this. It is longer than normal but that is what is required and you proved that.

This is also pretty much good for the Air 3S. I just purchased the Mini 4 Pro and Air 3S.

Thank you very much!
