Sorry, I can't agree. This got confusing when you started talking about course lock in the middle of the PoI tuition. Good teachers stay on point! @@BillNicholsTV
Your style of teaching really resonates with me; no blaring music while you're speaking, no gimmicks, just straight forward information presented in a classy way. Thank you. I have a C100 MK II.
The thing I like about this video is that you show the button to press by highlighting in yellow, for a user who hasn't seen a mode before, there is no doubt as to what to press, not seen this in any other video, well thought out. It really makes a difference. Thank you.
I just purchased a DJI Phantom 4 and while waiting for delivery I have been consuming every "How To" P4 video I can find. Your video on the POI Mode was great! Easy to follow and I appreciated your display of the DJI GO interaction while using the POI Mode. I look forward to viewing the rest of your P4 series. Many thanks...
Binge-watching Bill Nichols TV! Probably the best tutorial video series I've seen. You explain things very well and thoroughly without dragging it out. I'm new to droning and you make learning the craft of piloting easy. Keep up the great work. Thoroughly enjoy the way you teach.
The Absolutely best video on POI I've ever seen! Your voice, timing and pronouncing is perfect (no unneeded verbiage) a real demo of how to speak as well as the description of the POI!
Bill, thank you for making this video. You're the first person to articulately and clearly describe how to use this feature. This helped me complete a job today. :-)
Bill, your DJI Phantom 4 videos are incredible! There are lots of info videos available for this platform, but IMHO your presentations are the most useful to me. I appreciate your attention to safety, both of other's personal and property along with that of the drone. Thanks!
Thanks Bill! I purchased my "P4A" both from a curiosity standpoint and as an amateur photographer. As a relatively new P4A "operator", I've found the "in box" DJI instructional documentation very basic and clearly reliant upon publicly-available information such as your videos. Your videos are incredibly informative and useful, and clearly fill the operating instructions gap that exists with this drone platform!
Hey Bill Just bought a P4 as my first drone, and 'popped my cherry' with a few flights over my local park. What a great drone! Super happy with it. I'm also very glad that I found your channel. The videos are informative, easy to digest, taught at a good speed without being patronizing for the beginners like me. Keep up the good work!
I'm new to the serious drone photography aspect. Just bought the Phantom 4 pro. Lots to learn, and I'm going to watch all your videos.You have done and excellent job creating this instructional video. Many thanks. Roger
Could not for the life of me, figure this POI out, thanks, it worked today and I got some great footage to work on my portfolio, thanks! It's folks like you that help other succeed!
It might be a little late, but I have just purchased a Phantom 4, (used), and am absorbing as many lessons as I can before the first flight. Most interesting and easy to follow. Many thanks, Donald.
This is the most effective and easiest video for POI mode flying Phantom 4. Really have been trying to learn this mode of flying but watching several others is bit confusing. Hope to see more such effective tutorial videos in near future. See tutorial videos should be simpler and informative rather than making you confusing and giving you an idea of very tough job which is actually not. Thanks a lot..
+Dan Everett Thanks Dan, means a lot! I wouldn't worry about losing it (with the exception if you are doing something particularly risky) really robust, the software is great, solid overall.
Love all your videos! Straight to the point, you don't talk about things that aren't relevant to your videos, very easy, and clear to understand. Kudos to you! Keep up the Awesome work and thank you because you have helped me not crash or destroy my Phantom 4 through your very informative videos.
Thanks for the killer video! Flying a point of interest shot in manual is a total pain and to see the phantom able to have this feature is a blessing so yea keep up the great work!
Just got my own Phantom 4 this week. Still acquiring my flying skills, but I have found your videos incredibly helpful. Thanks for taking the time to make them!
Hi Bill, thank you for taking the time to make the video which I really enjoyed watching. Just un-boxed Phantom 4 and so looking forward to getting proficient at flying. The point of interest mode is really super. I'll be looking for your other vids too. Thanks again. DD.
Very helpful instructional video . Cheers Bill . Just got our Phantom 4 and learning heaps . Basically getting it up is unbelievably easy , after doing all the firmware downloads and updates , now to learn all the extra functions to get the most out of it . Subscribed and looking at other videos now . Thank you .
Been trying to work this type of flightpath seemlessly into CGI rendered overlays of buildings.. this has been the best showcase by far for this shot.. thank you Bill!
Thanks for this great video. I just bought a P4 and haven't had a chance to check out all the features over my P2. Your narration is easy to listen to and so far the best I have seen on the features. The POI will be a great help when I'm filming some music videos. Keep up the great work. I'll be watching!
Clear and easy to follow. Thanks Bill for posting. I'm going to try it to fly around a church spire near my house. I take note of what you said regarding how far away the drone can get. I don't want it to activate return to home because the take off point is in my garden which is a pretty built up area and not straight forward to take off or land. Keep up the great videos. :)
This piece of engineering is really really wonderful. Astonishing images and unusual points of view on a usual context... ;-) A powerful tool in the hands of creative people.
Great informative video! Another thing you can go as far as obstacles that might be in the way when you change your radius is select your POI...choose your altitude and radius, and then start it at a slower speed only turn the drone to fly forward facing for 1 lap and make sure you're clear of everything on the screen (be ready to press the pause button or raise altitude if necessary.) and then face the camera at your POI and let it complete the radius with confidence!
Great Tutorial, P4Pro on order been waiting 2 years to buy the right drone for still photography and videos, your video makes a complex system look easy so thank you
That was really helpful, especially that I just got my phantom this afternoon and have not yet gone out with it other than 15 minutes hovering in my front yard in the dark. Friday 1st real estate shoot over a beautiful estate and may try this out!
Subscribed...Day 2 with the Phantom 4. I've run thru the DJI Tutorials and several other videos....Nice job making this very easy to understand. I appreciate your time doing that.
Bill that was great. I have just purchased my first drone so am up to my neck in all the menu stuff. I think your delivery of information is really great and you are easy to follow so well done. I will be keeping and eye out for your Lightroom series for sure. Cheers Warren
Just recently purchased a Phantom 4, I have been dialing in my Photography and quad copter skills. I have found your videos on the Phantom 4 and use of the camera very helpful. Although the Phantom 4 is very intuitive it is it's really nice to have a more in-depth look at it's robust features. Looking forward to your next videos and your new editing series. Thanks
That's awesome Kevin, likely week after next I will start having a steady schedule of different content on different days and Premiere will be one of the regular, at least weekly topics. Stay tuned!
Many thanks,very informative. I have just upgraded from a P2V+ to a P4 and looking forward to all the new possibilities,your video has given me plenty of ideas,thanks.
Awesome tutorial... bought the Phantom today, but spent the day watching tutorials, getting firmware updated, etc.. will have its maiden voyage tomorrow :-)
a really well constructed how to video, I just had to subscribe to your channel as a newbie to the world of drones and wanting to use it for my real estate business, I can see your tutorials as being invaluable, thanks again
Great job!!! Right to the point... of interest :-)
Thanks Pawel! Glad it was helpful for you!!

The best POI tutorial so far
thanks a lot!

Thumbs up!

Mick in the U.K here, just purchased a P4 and find your videos very informative.

A very clear tutorial. The significance of setting the return to home altitude correctly had not sunk in until I saw this tutorial.
Glad it was helpful Martin! Thanks for watching

The best instruction I've seen on how to do this. Got me doing it right after seeing it. Thanks.
Been trying to work this type of flightpath seemlessly into CGI rendered overlays of buildings.. this has been the best showcase by far for this shot.. thank you Bill!

Excellent, no messing about, got to the point and great explanation
GREAT VIDEO BILL..SUBSCRIBED!!!!
Very well prepared. Being new to all of this I need all the help available.

Thanks Tracy - glad it was helpful
Simple and well explained tutorial, very well put together with the right pace that you can follow. Thank you
You're very welcome!
Clear and easy to follow. Thanks Bill for posting. I'm going to try it to fly around a church spire near my house. I take note of what you said regarding how far away the drone can get.

This piece of engineering is really really wonderful. Astonishing images and unusual points of view on a usual context... ;-) A powerful tool in the hands of creative people.
Very well presented and explained, no waffle, clear and informative. We do use meters in Europe and some of us older guys work in both:)
Great informative video! Another thing you can go as far as obstacles that might be in the way when you change your radius is select your POI...choose your altitude and radius, and then start it at a slower speed only turn the drone to fly forward facing for 1 lap and make sure you're clear of everything on the screen (be ready to press the pause button or raise altitude if necessary.) and then face the camera at your POI and let it complete the radius with confidence!
Thanks! Just watched the POI video. Very good!
Good video, looking forward to trying this maneuver with Phantom.
You and me both!
Very helpful, thank you.
Glad to hear it!
Thanks for the video. I recently bought a Phantom 4 and I found this information very helpful. I look forward to your future installments.

Thanks for this, Bill. Incredibly helpful and keeps everyone safe.
Really clear and concise tutorial. Thanks for creating this Bill.
Really enjoyed this video. You made Point of interest very easy to understand. Looking forward to more of your instructional videos.
The best tutorial I've heard yet for point of interest flight mode. Thanks!!
Thanks for the feedback! I really appreciate it
Thanks for the time to make the video. It was very helpful!
I'm so glad I found this! Been afraid to do much of anything with my P4 other than manual controls. Thanks!
The image quality on the phantom 4 pro is so SOO good! It’s hands down my favorite dji drone and camera. Hate they stopped manufacturing it
I totally agree but fortunately they have returned the Phantom 4 Pro V2.0 on the DJI website
excellent video, thank you! I am a new Phantom 4 pilot from the OC as well and this is exactly what i needed.
Glad to hear it!
That was really helpful, especially that I just got my phantom this afternoon and have not yet gone out with it other than 15 minutes hovering in my front yard in the dark. Friday 1st real estate shoot over a beautiful estate and may try this out!

Great video and summary on how to use POI. I will be trying out POI later today.
Nice that you flip from app view to drone view so I can actually see what you are doing. Really great video.
Thanks Rickie! Glad it was helpful
I liked this video mate, thumbs up. Cheers from the IGY Simpson Bay Marina, Sint Maarten in the Caribbean.

Glad it was helpful Warren, cheers!
You are an excellent instructor. I'm a beginner and appreciate the help and clarification before I try a maneuver myself. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks so much Daniel - glad it was helpful for you
Nice... As a new owner and previous craft was a Phantom II this really helped
Awesome. glad it helped!

I like your training technique,I just got a P4 and I’m in the proses of learning,thanks,Happy Flying!!!
Really informative video. I like how you describe how to do POI but also what you use it for.
Awesome, glad it was helpful!
Great instruction. Thanks a lot. I think that practicing manually this maneuver first will give you an appreciation of the automatic mode.
Well done. Best tutorial I have seen on POI.
That's awesome John - thanks so much!
Loved your video ! Just bought the phantom 4 today and flew it once. Way cool! Way fun! Looking forward to more informative stuff from you.
Thanks Man CavE!
Well done I got the mini on Christmas got my phantom today this video gets me excited
Just ordered the 4. Thanks, this is very good for me to learn.
Awesome video! Haven't dived into this feature yet and have been trying to manually do this. This will save soo much trouble. Thanks!! :)
Awesome glad it was helpful!
Great instructional video .. Pls do more .. One of the best I've found.... Cheers
thanks Steve - lots more to come
Nice demo, thanks - just what I needed to know.
Great video, it helped explain how this feature worked. I can already see some fun shots.
Very informative video..... Keep up the great videos Bill. I just got a new Phantom 4 and I'm loving it.
Thanks and congrats on your new drone!
Fantastic video. Thank you 👍
I have just bought my p4 pro, im a newbie, so this has been a big help. Thanks Bill. From Ceri in Wales uk.
