Best tutorial on first flight that I’ve seen

[ruraldiscoveries]

Your review is very comprehensive. I stumbled on it in 2021 and i had to scroll through my history to get it again in 2023. Thanks.

[brennerheavy]

Very, very clear, with no extra/unnecessary conversation. Great job!

[BMacksAerialVisuals]

Glad I waited and watched all the way to the end. Didn't know a tap on the RTH button would pause the drone. Old dog/new trick. Thanks, ER.

Ed you have one of the best instructional videos on the Mavic Air 2. I brought one recently and it meets my temporary expectations as I venture into upgrading later depending on my business use. Thank you very much for your time and wonderful layout of your Yourtube site.

Great Job Ed! As a retired Learning Leader, The content was organized, informative and your presentation was great. you didn't drag it out with unnecessary info and the pace was spot on. The best tutorial I've seen yet

[edadan]

Great tutorial. I just got my Mavic Air 2 today but haven’t tried to fly it yet. This video really helped. Thanks!

[scrippslarry]

What an excellent walk through - much appreciated! Incredibly impressed by how thorough and well thought out your presentation is! Great job!

I just got my Mavic Air 2, and this tutorial was perfect as a first time drone user. Thank you!

I realize this is an older video for an older drone. I bought a used DJI Air 2 drone (and I recently seld my DJI Mini 2 drone, which I barely used). I just wanted to familiarize myself with the Air 2 since it is "new to me", & I am fairly new to the "drone world". I have seen other DJI drone videos on YouTube for other DJI drones, including reviews. I must say, your video is TOP NOTCH!!! It is VERY precise & you covered tips & suggestions I have seen NO WHERE else, especially while the drone is in the air. WOW...great job!!! I bookmarked this video, and I wish & hope other "set-up" / tutorial videos are this concise, so the viewer knows what EVERYTHING means or does. I liked this video & you certainly have me as a subscriber. Thanx!

Bought this drone at bargain price end 2022 after flying Mini 2, ,This is a priceless tutorial even as late as I am getting the drone.
Thankyou very thorough introduction as im activating it today. 😁

Note to purchasers of the Flymore combo: The charging equipment and props came to me in small boxes, located in the shipping box. I thought I was missing the filters and, most importantly, the cord for charging the controller. I finally found those in zipper pocket inside the carrying bag. Having to search for these items can be annoying when you excitedly want to get everything charged and on to flying. Anyway, another really good job with this video, Ed.

[gooberminthertik]

Having a total of three batteries included in the Fly More Combo is a great deal. The individual price of purchasing a single extra battery alone warrants diving into the Combo. The Charging Hub, ND Lens, Shoulder Bag...all add up significantly when purchased separately; although the bag wont accommodate even a single Guinness. tic

Great presentation.

I had to buy this drone a week before I had to deploy to South Africa. Now that I'm settled in, I have some time for myself. I am so happy to come across your channel. The other ones breeze through what they call the "beginners'" set up however, they are talking to themselves and not to beginner audience. I had hard time following them. Your video is very easy to follow with less technical jargon and focused to me as beginner like your title said. You and your family are more than welcome to come to SA and have free lodging, transportation and food on me 😂 to get around and explore this part of the world via great footages as well. By the way, where I am at is very drone friendly having less to nothing drone flying restrictions. Thank you and all the best.

[vinnyguinny]

I got the Mavic Air 2 as a Christmas gift and can't wait to start flying it. This tutorial helped greatly and I'll probably watch it once more before I begin to fly. Thank you.

[doubleb]

Just a quick thank you for your videos. I purchased my first drone (Mavic Pro) several years back and your tutorial was fantastic. Especially the lady walking her dog through your shoot. So glad you left that in, along with your "look".

[rushipatel]

Thanks for the video Ed! Your tutorial helped me make up my video of ordering the Mavic Air 2. Just waiting for it to arrive in a few days. I chose the combo package. I will be watching your video again before I take to the sky. Greatly appreciated!!!

[beigenomadscaravangroup]

Thank you Ed. As a first time flier you gave me more knowledge and confidence to go out and fly in my local park.

[tahirpatan]
