so if you're on a remote trail where often there isnt internet connection on your phone you cant fly it about properly? is there a version which doesnt need your phone to work?
You don’t need internet connection to fly, just for initial setup. There are other DJI models that have a dedicated remote, but it would be heavier for you to carry both your phone and the beefed up remote.
@@TommyGunner86 I just check everything is ready to go the night before my trip. I check the software is all updated, that my phone can connect successfully, batteries are charged, and the memory card is empty and in the drone.
That pun in the intro was groan worthy.
10/10 would watch again
Keep up the great work Jake!
Great review my friend 🤙🏼 - Ray
Why are you using meters if you're in the US?

@@TrailTime ah ok. Makes sense. So maybe set it up at the start of the trail and then you're free to go nuts?

Thanks for the review. Very helpful.
My pleasure! 😁
@@TrailTime Have you gotten you FAA 107 license? Huge concern of ours before we start with drones and hiking.
Not yet, but my drone is registered with the FAA and I plan on getting my 107 license once I start monetizing my videos 🙂
