Sir !!!! This is an excellent video. We have been using this drone to help film our house build. Had a little mishap and couldn’t figure out why the gimbal wouldn’t move, he lies the problem. Your video was extremely easy to follow and very, very helpful! I’m pretty mechanically inclined, but I don’t like pulling on thin pieces of plastic, especially when they feel like they are going to break. You’ve gained a new subscriber for sure.😊🎉

Please give me a break drone 😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢

Hallo bro please give me a dron 😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢

One thing I always do is rotate left or right first to see if there is anything there before taking a video moving sideways....but....you can still miss wires!

The question I always ask myself.....how close is it?.....really.....

I have so many clips just clearing wires, and a couple not clearing. 😦

Man my neighbor tripped out because i was flying an fpv drone around her front yard (i was actually over the street hovering). Cops told her to mind her own business. 😂

I have talked to the Federal Aviation Dept here in Mexico and was told quite clearly that no non Mexican can fly a drone, regardless of weight here. The laws changed back in about 2020 because of tourists abusing the no fly laws. I live here in Mexico and do fly my DJI Mini's quite a lot. But I always make it a point to be-friend a policeman of some kind before I do. The local police especially will confiscate your drone so they can resell it. The paper work shown on other videos are from 2019, laws change here just like any where else.

Why do you have to do so much when only one cabel is broken?

I went to Mexico in 2023 and thought I couldn't fly for commercial use which would have been the case if they determine RUclips commercial use. The resort also had a no drone restriction. The import tax is just a shakedown to get money out of you. They say if you paid it once keep the receipt as you shouldn't have to pay it again on a future trip. It didn't seem to be worth the hassle and you always run the risk of some police officer that doesn't know the confusing regulations either confronting you and you end up losing your drone or paying a bunch of money to get to keep it. I didn't even bother taking my drone to Mexico.

Nice video thanks for sharing and now I'm your new subscriber please stay connected and have a great day ❤️

I see so many cases of this ribbon snapping in the Mini 2 (including mine), that it seems to be a design flaw. Also, I did this ribbon repair on my Mini 2 and it said I needed a firmware update. I think I am going to look at other brands if I want a new drone.

Good job well done

Thank you, very informative! Cheers from Vancouver/Langley, CA

Yesterday I received this in response to my inquiry to the AFAC (Mexican FAA) about foreigners operating in Mexico. This reply was cc'd to the Executive Director of Aviation in Mexico and the Director of Engineering Standards and Certification. So officials from the top down had eyes on this email. "In response to your email received on April 20 of this year and based on section 4.10.16. of the Mexican Official Standard NOM-107-SCT3-2019, which establishes the requirements to operate a remotely piloted aircraft system (RPAS) in Mexican airspace, I inform you that RPAS operations by foreigners are not allowed in Mexico, regardless of the weight of the aircraft or the intended use of it. I add the aforementioned numeral for quick reference 4.10.16. They will not be able to operate in Mexico an RPAS with foreign registration or registration or operated by foreign RPAS operators, other than those mentioned in section 4.10.15 of this Standard Mexican Official, unless there is a bilateral agreement between the Aeronautical Authority and the Aviation Authority. Civil Aviation of the state of registration/registration." So Mexico is a no fly zone for foreigners... So now I'm applying for Mexican citizenship and I'm going to bring down a drone that my mexican partner can fly, with my guidance, while the application is in work.

The AI characters, at least in my opinion, makes the video unwatchable. Extremely uncanny and disturbing.

Appreciate your video\work and experience sharing here. I believe it's pretty clear reading the nom-107-sct3-2019-201119.pdf specially the 5.5.1, NOTA+1 and even looking into the text of form "K" explicitly says you don't need a registration for drones under 250g. I'll take my DJI Mini 3 Pro and I'll take your advice or taking the regulations printed just in case we need to have a conversation.

Hi there do I need a canadian basic drone license to go in canadian airport going to asia vacation trip?

Truee 💪

Good video 👍

3:47

Sensible advice. I noticed they were operating the drone on a road, near water, near power lines, had no line of sight etc. An accident waiting to happen since they had no to little experience. Hope they had extended DJI care. Thanks for the video

Thank you!

Hi, thanks for all your efforts here. Before seeing your video I asked the Mexican authorities and just received a reply. While I can transit with a 249g drone I am not able to use it as a Foreigner, based on numeral 4.10.16. of the Official Mexican Standard NOM-107-SCT3-2019 regardless of weight and even though I am commercially recognised in the EU, AU and Jpn with a global insurance policy

Thanks for sharing the repair!

"Running before they can even walk" I wouldn't even dream of trying out this option before taking a few months to get some basic flights under my belt!

You missed the most IMPORTANT part of the take-off....THE POWER LINES right next to the launch site!

Does that mean I can just bring my 249g mini 4 to Mexico as a tourist?

I'm sorry but the " click on me " button makes you look like Freddy from Night mare on Elm street.

Excellent video George! Since they purchased a DJI drone, then they should’ve also bought the DJI Care Refresh insurance, especially on a first time expensive drone. It would have saved them a big repair headache and bill! Plus, they could pick the brains of the DJI support folks with any questions regarding how to properly fly their drone and safety tips. Thanks to you and the lady and her boyfriend for sharing their maiden flight and crash. It sure did take a lot of guts to share it. Ed W. Nova Scotia, Canada

I am going to Mexico next week. This is great news!

They ll all do it . There isn’t a single one out there that won’t fly away or lose connections imho . Not even dji , the disconnect too

I apologize for the poor sound. My Tascam DR 10 L was having issues.

'promo sm'

Beautiful destination! and hey there's a car from Ontario at 18 seconds.... i guess they drove down.... they aren't exporting stolen cars to Mexico as far as I know! :)

Amazing

Thanks for this information bro! Very helpful!!

Mini 2 is a great drone i love mine

I recently upgraded from the mini 2 se to a mini 3 pro and I have to say it's so worth the upgrade, Don't get me wrong the 2 is a sweet little scouting drone and does great work for it's price, But the 3 pro is just incredible! I say yeah go for the 3 pro with the screen controller you won't regret it and you can scout a scene with the 2 and then fully film or photograph it with the 3 pro. The 3 also performs much better at night with that bigger sensor and the wider aperture range too. Orbits are a piece of cake thanks to the spotlight mode too. The dcine profile is more flexible when colour grading too.

8:51 6....be careful flying in sub zero conditions which could affect your aircraft 😊 or any other extreme conditions

This sort of thing is probably a serious problem with cheap drones, without the signal from the controller it could pick up spurious RF signals, most more expensive ones will go into RTH in the event of signal loss

It's time for you to upgrade to the Mini 4 Pro, way better footage at night - interesting video and thanks for sharing.

I use the Mini 4 Pro quite a bit since Remote ID hit the US, and I was still waiting on the Remote ID module for my Autel EVO 2 Pro to arrive. I'm pretty impressed by how it handles the wind. I droned a few skyscrapers here in Chicago before Christmas where it gets pretty windy up there. I also flew the Chicago River on a day with 22kts gusting 37kts and I couldn't believe how that little Mini 4 Pro handled it. I never owned the Mini drones before...

^wayy better 💪

Yeah it’s better I have a dji 2 and the dji 3 mini pro

I'm not convinced that VLOS is even helpful. I have a Potensic Atom which is very easy to fly and I understand where it is all the time because of its FPV. I also have a cheap non-FPV drone and, even when it's still in the VLOS, I can't tell whether it's facing me or facing some other direction. So when I push it forward, it's not easy to tell quickly whether it's moving toward me or away from me. I'm pretty sure I'll eventually lose it because of that. Feels a little dangerous to even fly it.

Great video - many thanks. Couldn’t agree more. I’ve got a Mini 4 Pro and am heading to Merida/Progreso in Yucatan for the first time. Am I OK to bring my drone? I’ve been flying for decades (my first was the AR Drone!), so understand risks.

Just found your channel. Love it and we go to Mexico at least twice a year from the USA. I took my mini 2 to Cancun but it was way to windy so I just flew a little bit above the waves. Thanks for the info!

Really appreciate this video - great sunset shot. Love your caution and pursuit of great shots. Also appreciate you calling the other pilot out. I think it's important for us to self-monitor with respect for each other. While we can say "he should have known ..." sometimes people just aren't thinking. (And unfortunately sometimes they just don't care - which puts our whole hobby at risk.)
