- DJI MINI 2 (4K) - Settings & Stick Control For Smooth Cinematic Orbits With The DJI Mini 2 Drone
This video shows the settings I use when flying the DJI Mini 2 drone, and also includes a thumbstick control overlay and on screen tips showing exactly how I fly the drone and how easy it is to get smooth cinematic footage if you have the right settings and a a bit of practice.
If you are looking to improve your drone flying skills but don't know how to set up the drone or use the sticks etc, and always seem to come away with jerky, horrible footage then please take the time to watch this video the whole way through and I think you will learn a lot.
Anyway, this video took me quiet a while to create, so if you did enjoy it and/or got something out of it, please can you show your support by liking the video, and even better commenting and/or subscribing, it really does make a huge difference to getting my hard work seen by more people which is obviously what I would love to happen
Thanks again, hope you enjoyed and happy flying
Out of all the videos I have watched on how to fly a drone, this is by far the best one I have watched. I think that you have changed the way people are going to produce their videos. Thanks again ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT
Hey, thanks for the very complimentary comment, I'm just happy if it helps a few people to feel more in control of the drone. Good luck and happy flying :)
Forgot to say in the video but the settings were in NORMAL MODE!! They will probably be OK in CINE and SPORT but this flight was in NORMAL MODE. Other settings for this flight were 4k/30, 1/60, 5000k, no filters because it was sunset so didn't need them
Hi Matt!
If I shoot around 2-4 pm, what shutter and kelvin would you suggest I use?
@@JannaLugtu Hey, it all depends on how much light and conditions you have.. If possible you should try and have your shutter speed at double the frame rate but you will probably need some ND filters to do that. So if you are shooting at 4K/30 then 60fps is ideal, or if 2.7K/60 then 120fps.. But if you don't have any ND filters then just set the shutter so the image on your phone looks the same (or even a little bit darker) as how you see it with your eyes.. Same with the kelvin, just set it so it looks the same on your phone as you see with your eyes.. You can slightly adjust in an editor afterwards to get it just right, but its a lot easier to adjust it a little bit in an editor if you set it manually when flying rather than leaving it in auto.
Question: Why optimized for Normal mode? Are there other settings in Normal (defaults I'd imagine) that make the settings better in Normal?
I was going to make your settings here in CINE mode as they seem slower/calmer in general, but being a newbie, looking to learn. My thinking was that keeping Normal or Sport mode untouched gives me an opportunity to quickly switch to more agile flight in the event something goes wrong or I need to react quickly.
All guidance appreciated.
You used stick mode 2 or customized your stick controls?
I heard others talk about this but never has it been illustrated so masterfully. Gracias.
Wow this video is amazing, i am new to drones and this will help me tremendously in my videos, still lots to learn.
Superb flow
One of the best drone tutorials I have seen - easy to follow and the footage of the remote simultaneously with the drone is so so helpful. Thank you
Just came across this video. Subscribing immediately
This is educational worldclass. So incredibly appreciated. Thank you so much for doing this for us. This will be my reference clip for how to fly drones smoothly, no doubt about it. Wishing you all the best and many many more subscribers. You really deserve it.
Awesome, thanks for such a great comment. I've been trying to make something like this for so long I thought I would never find a way of putting across the info in a simple method. Im very pleased you find it useful.. Just to be clear though these exact settings will probably only work this well on normal mode and probably only on the mini 2. I think it probably depends very much on how fast the drone flies as to what the optimal settings are. For other drones i think it would take a little bit of tinkering to get the perfect balance. But for mini 2 in normal mode on a calm day these are about as good as it gets in my opinion
Thanks a lot for the lesson and sharing. Hopefully, the weather will be better Tomorrow so I can try these settings.
will share this as well for you
sorry matt, i see i didnt start at the beginning, sorry, well done man, superb video, you re best
excellent shot
I've watched almost every video with mini2 but never saw this tipe of smoothness...incredible skills! 😲🤔👏💪🛸
U have the best tutorial on YT men. Thank you for the awesome edit en tutorial. 😎🔥(that controller edit in your screen...was so helpfull.) I'm to stoned to Fly, but I'm gonna try this men😉)
ha ha, glad you found it useful..
excellent demonstration, thanks for sharing
Realy realy nice what you showed us! I'm a very much beginner and this kind of footage helps me a lot... a lot! Thank you for your effort!! Much appreciated!
Stunning
For the first time, I watched a video tutorial about smooth moves so informative and with such helpfull description. Thanks a lot Matt. As soon as the wind goes down, I''ll go out practicing. Keep up good work!!!!!!!!
Hi, thanks.. Hope it is helpful for you. The settings work best in normal mode on calmer days, have fun :)
@@MAttWDroneVids 👍
@@MAttWDroneVids Hi ! In latest firmware update DJI added Expo to all control axis, it might also help to get smooth footage ! Greetings from Ukraine !
Wow!! A stunning Ariel ballet masterclass, without a doubt the best drone control tutorial out there 👍 Thank you so much for the time and effort taken to share this 👏
Brilliant video
Nice job superimposing the controller at a low opacity. It blended nicely.
Great video! Thanks!
Thank you. This is a very thorough and well put tutorial.
A great instruction and so helpful
PERFECT, thanks
Well Done!!! this too will be my reference video. NO BS just the facts great visuals with controller..
Great tips!
Thank you. 👏👏👏
Hey Matt, I'll be watching this over and over. Thanks for a much needed hands-on tutorial.
Great tutorial video Matt, this is just what I wanted to see. Thanks very much!
I have subscribed 😎 👍🏻 🇬🇧
Awesome 👌
Awesome video!! Extremely helpful!
Awesome. Thanks.
Awesome video!
Extremely helpful to new Mini 2 owner. Saved to re-watch over and over again . Thanks
Love it
Greetings Matt from Western Canada 🇨🇦! Wow, I've learned so much simply by "stumbling" onto your channel! I'm a new drone pilot. I've purchased my DJI Mini 2 last week. I'm going slow at learning the controls. I absolutely love this drone and can hardly wait to produce good quality video footage! Thanks for sharing your talent with us newbies! Cheers! Lamplighter 2022!👍😎
Thanks Matt it’s the best professional tutorial I ever seen, truly a classic in class video and stick control I ever seen, I will adopt it into my mini 2 Cine mode for ever. Should help me a lot on my trip in Colorado. Crow
Some good info mate. Always like sneaking a peak at what settings others are using! Well done on the video. Have a good one 🇳🇿✌️
Thank you very much, it's not that easy but need too much sense such as u doing a complicated surgery,, i admire your work bro,, u jump with this tiny drone to the last level
Your video is sick bro... so good, thank you 😎🤙
Watched this, then watched some of my own drone videos. Now I know what I should be doing differently.
Nicely done video and real useful. Thanks!
Thank you for this video it is very helpful as you repeat the same movements a few times which helps it really sink in.
top tip, whilst watching this sit with the remote in your hands and copy the stick movements, by seeing the movement it should help fix the stick positions in your working memory
VERY NICE SIR
Thanks so much :) Just got my new DJI Mini 2 and copied your settings!
nice video 🤩 liked & subscribed, thanks for sharing
Fantastic tips settings and vid!!
Bravo! The best I’ve seen in controlling the drone for filming. I know it was a lot of work to make and I appreciate it. I will be viewing this video many times. Love the soundtrack too. Subscribed.
Teaching as art. Thank you for all the work you put into this. It has saved much work in divining the smooth transitions needed to wring more out of this great little drone.
Just wanted to let you know the effort is deeply appreciated. (and the music is epic)
Spectacular and Awesome are the first words that came to mind. A masterful demonstration of a very practical and useful skill. Your skills are inspiring. Thank you for sharing Matt.
massively helpful mate, the best I've found on RUclips honestly 👏🏻 👌🏻
A masterclass, but as you say, height and space is your friend whilst practicing. I envisage a few drones in trees and on tops of buildings in the coming weeks, and doing all of these adjustments whilst maintaining VLOS is on another level.
Hopefully no one will lose their drones, it does look reasonably easy in this video but its taken me a lot of practice to be able fly like this so hopefully people will be sensible
@@MAttWDroneVids no matter how many times i watch this Matt I am mesmerised. Changed my settings, ent for a practice and its bloody hard. But my parallax are better for sure
@@gimbalair It takes a while to get used to the slower movements but once you get used to it you might like it better.. It might not ne to everyone's taste tbh but this is how I fly all the time so I thought people might be interested to see so they can give it a go themselves and see if it helps. If you tinker with them a degree at a time you might find something that feels better for you.. I spent a lot of time trying different combinations and these currently are the ones I feel most comfortable with, the yaw at 7 degrees per second feels too slow for me and 9 feels a tad too fast so I stuck on 8.. And similar with the tilt, I find that 3 on full lock is about as fast as I would like it to tilt for smooth movements so thats why i limit it there but someone else might find a different combination works better for them. Anyway, let me know if you post any videos using these settings, id be interested to take a look
Hi from New Zealand. I am new to drone flying so badly needed someone to show me how to fly. So much info in your video. Thanks for taking the time and effort. Tony CH.
Hi, hope its helpful.. Best thing is to just go out and fly a lot, you will naturally improve over time if you get out and fly a lot
Excellent demonstration of superb control skills, answered many newby questions. Thanks
Very good cinematic move. Thanks for sharing.
Best of all tutorials i've watched!
From philippines :)
Tq 👏👏👍
Absolutely bloody superb ...I've been having so much trouble with this manoeuvre ...feel like I'm in with a chance now. Thank you so much, Matt !!
Thanks, hope you find it useful..
This is definitely a great one... I'm a beginner and this is so well explained..Thank you very much.
Awesome video mate I have subscribed to your channel because I'm very interested mini 2 which I have purchased recently
Hi, thanks for the comment, and hope you get as much enjoyment out of the mini 2 as I have so far :)
Thank you very much Mat.! With this video i laerned a lot. Greetings from Belgium..
I am wondering about the mental condition of the (3) people who disliked this video...Great job and shooting. I had the pleasure of visiting York some 10 years ago. Simply Beautiful.
Thanks a lot, I appreciate your positive feedback.. I guess some people prefer to fly a different method to mine but that's fine. I get good results with these settings so I thought it would be a good thing to share for people who are wanting to get smoother footage.. If people don't like it that's fine by me, but most feedback I have had is positive and hopefully it has been useful in some way to the majority who have watched it
realy well done..gonna save his one to watch more often en use my own controller to practice along with your footage , thank you !
thank you awsome touch
Excellent tutorial, Thank you. Can't wait to go out and practice.
Great video Matt so detailed with the instructions,i learnt to drive with The British School of Motoring, now i'm learning to fly with Matt's British school of Drone flying ,keep up the great work Matt ,and thank you
Those are the perfect settings I want for my footage thank you
Thank you so much, this is a treasure trove of infomattion, took notes and will definately give this a try. You are a star
Hey, thanks for commenting. Hope you can put it into action and get some cool shots. Thanks for sharing too, i appreciate it 👍
Excellent
i tried these settings, works really great friend !! thanks a lot
Terrific video. Great information and beautifully presented.
Thank you, thank you, thank you. This is a great tutorial Matt! Can't thank you enough.
Hey Jose, glad you think it's helpful.. Good luck :)
Always enjoy your videos, Matt, but this one I especially like. Well done, sir, and thank you.
Hi and thanks. I have wanted to put something like this out for a while to show people it really isn't that difficult to fly this drone if you get the settings right and put in a bit of practice.. I just didn't know how to put it into a video without me having to be on camera stumbling over words and making it sound more complicated than it actually is.. I wanted to do something useful instead of just churning out more flights that look good but don't actually help anyone with their own piloting skills.. It seems to be going down well so I'm happy about that. Hopefully more to come.. Thanks a lot for watching and commenting :)
This is an amazing video. I like the displaying of the settings at the start and the inclusion of the controls while making the moves. As a newbie, having the sticks in opposite corners seems off, but clearly is ideal with those settings and for the orbiting moves.
goodmorning Matt, wonderful video, so quite, can you tell me waht settings you use withe the drone: like yaw speed etc, i find it very difficult to do this, most of the time too fast, cab you help me with this? greetings from Rob Netherlands
Thanks a lot for this great tutorial! An excellent job! Thanks also for the parameters of the setting, great!
Thankyou for sharing Matt
Professional filming. Congratulations!
Thank you Matt. Your videos helped me a lot!
Very nice description and tutorial. Better examined than some 'technical experts' on here. Cheers pal.
Cool, thanks for that.. Hopefully it helps a few people
Thanks mate
Thats an amazing Video 🔥 with so much usefull Informationen. I have to change my settings and figure Out what works best for me but my Rotation Speed of the deine is defenitly to high. Greetings Moritz
Hey Moritz, thanks for the comment.. Definitely take time to play with different settings and find what works for you.. It might not be the same as me but it is definitely worth spending the time to find out what your perfect setup is.. I spent quiet a few hours just changing each setting one point at a time until I got to where I am happy with them. It definitely improved my video quality a lot.. Good luck !
Thanks so much for sharing these tutorials
No problem, hope you find it useful
Fantastic tutorial Matt! Just what I hoped for and never knew this would exist in a video!
Wow! Best tutorial ever. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks, hope you find it useful :)
Fantastic and informative video buddy. Just what I have been looking for 👌👌
Whow!! Dit is van een geweldig hoog niveau. Deze video is mijn voorbeeld om zo te kunnen vliegen. Chapeau, Matt.
Superb instructional video Matt, the best on youtube!
Awesome, thanks a lot :)
Excellent vid great job and great spilt screen work!!!
Thanks Matt you made learning easier to fly the mini 2 so smooth will definitely apply this tutorial! Thanks for sharing ur expertise to us! Goos stuff!
#desibiker superb 👌
Great video, great flying and great tips, thanks.
Brilliant video Matt..shame the weather is bad or I’d be out there now trying it out 👍🏻
Awesome thanks. Hope you get some smooth vids, it's pretty hard not to with these settings tbh..
loved this! cant wait to upgrade from the mini 1 😁
Great stuff and very informative
Nice one Matt, keep flying pal :)
Hi MAtt, thank you for the wonderful video. I have just bought the Mini SE and I have been struggling to use the controls. I have never owned a drone before and it is all a bit overwhelming. I have been practising just twice and using the two joysticks together is tough and, to be honest, a bit discouraging. Then I stumbled across your video and I can´t wait to go out later today to try the new settings. You are a very talented pilot and instructor. Best wishes from Spain.
Very good tutorial 👍👍👍
Very informative and well done!
Thank you.
Thanks, hope you find it useful :)
This settings are for big space, if u need to fly in small place this settings its not helping. But for big space like this, its perfect!
Hi, great video! Could you update these settings to the new version of the DJI Fly app? It now includes Max Angular Velocity and Yaw Smoothness. Thanks.
Hi, I haven't flown the drone for a long time now tbh. All the laws kinda took the fun out.
