I really like this guy! He explains every thing. I got the DJI mini 2 SE bc of him and extra battery. But I don't have a phone to fly it so now I'm thinking about sending back . Can't afford the phone that's compatible with the DJI mini 2 SE. But this guy is the best.
Thank you. I'm new to drones. The last aircraft I flew was fly by wire. We had engines and could only fly by holding a spindle that had special string attached to the model. We fly in circles, literally. This is so exciting, and about the same relative cost, but much more dynamic and versatile. Safer too.
I bought my first $100 drone from Canadian Tire 5 years ago. Took it up in the air for the first time and the wind blew it away into the forest. LOL. I did find it after a few hours and able to get it. Fortunately the signal was still connected but weak. Stronger as I got to it, stuck in a tree 30 feet up. I waited and waited, finally invested in a DJI mini 2 SE- great video man.
Thank you for this video. I've got my first drone and took some quickshots of my car before trying helix and promptly crashing into a tree. The drone survived thankfully. I should have watched this first.
Just bought my own DJI Mini 2 SE today. Never flown one before. Your vid is my first impression. Looks great! Thanks. I am now subscribed to your channel.
I never know there was supposed to be a height limitation, but I guess that makes sense from a safety standpoint. Maybe you found a bug, check to see if they fix in a future update. Great guide for beginners on the Quickshot modes. Thanks for sharing.
I just got the mini 2se very first drone but haven't flown it yet this video was very helpful and explained very well thank you for sharing your video. Looks like good fun to use the quick shot mode
Marcus, you have a great place to fly living in Sacramento east to many trees eventually I will have to find a place that is wide open to do that many thanks.
The radius of the circle definitely changes as it executes the maneuver. AFAIK the only way around this is to widen the radius to reduce the perceived variation.
Can this drone be set to do multiple circles instead of only one circle? If not, is there a drone that can do continuous circles, and maybe slower circles?
@@IdahoQuadcopter I kind of thought that, because they dont want you to walk away from it, I think it should be hands on all the time. Thank you, and great videos. I think the DJI mini 2 SE is the one I will go with.
mini 2 se right joy stick pitching backward (toward the operator) will bring it back to me or move away from me. The reason I am asking this very important question is to determine the forward, backward movements are with respect to opeator (course lock) or with respect to the front position of the drone?
ty Sir for sharing your knowledge! i just bought my 1st drone (mini 2se) heheh so excited to try this. can i ask if is it possible to take picture while using Quickshots? hello from philippines 💜
@@IdahoQuadcopter ty sir :) so i just finished to watch ur tutorial and saw that ia have to stop quick shot and pause if i want to take pictures . i will try this Sir thanks for helping /teaching us
I’m having a problem . The quick shot comes up and I can choose a shot and highlight myself but after I do that I can’t hit the start button ??? Any suggestions ?
This was really helpful. I have a new Mini 2 SE and tried to do quick shots the other day. The quick shot menu wouldn’t stay on for me to select any of them. It would just flash and go away. Was hoping you were going to recreate that when you did your low level experiments but I guess that wasn’t my problem. (I don’t think I was lower than 2m anyway but was still hoping that was my issue.) I’ll have to try again, this weekend. I’m sure it’s user error somehow. I still got a lot out of this video though, Marcus!
Thanks, Marcus! I always pick up something new from your videos. One question occurred to me. On the Dronie distance of 120 meters, is that horizontal distance, or slant range distance? I'm looking forward to your next video.
Great video! I just bought the mini 2 SE two days ago and I love the drone but I have a problem with saving my pictures and videos. How do you save them or do the pictures and videos go directly into your phone?
Thank you! I save my pictures and video to the SD card on the drone. 👍 Take a look at this video for the Mini SE. It explains the micro SD card at about 13:38. ruclips.net/video/N9P60rvxWjQ/видео.html
Great tutorial! I just got a mini 2 SE this week! (I was trying to get a Neo and got this by accident 😂 but generally happy with this!) Question: I see you’re using the video from the drone and screen recording from your phone. How are you recording your audio for this video?
Hi bro I've been watching your review on fimi x8 mini v1 that inspired me to get the v2. My questions are is safe to fly over Telecom poles and a electricity high tension poles and what is the wind resistance. I'm Welbeck from Ghana West Africa and I don't miss any of your tutorials since I started to enjoy drone as hobby. Stay blessed and safe all the time friend.
Thank you. I've never had any problems flying over cell phone towers or powerlines. That's just my experience though, I can see how it could be a problem.👍
@@IdahoQuadcopter are the mini 2 se drones waterproof? I wouldn't fly it in the rain but wondering what would happen if I had it in the air and it started to rain before I could land it.... I can't find any specs from dji on this matter
Hello my co-worker buy mini 2 se and we tryed to do quickshots but when we press the ikon where you have the menu for chousing photo video and quickshots it doesnt open the menu it just switch betwen camera and photo can you give me some tip does the quckshot has to be enabeld in settings before he can use it Thank
I was flying today, I hit RTH and instead of just coming home it went to a fixed point and just hovered there, what is going on ? do I have to adjust something in the menus? Rob
In the safety menu you can tell the drone what to do when initiating RTH. You may have inadvertently changed the home point and told the drone to hover rather than land.

Too much talk. Not enough information. How do we get to the cross within the green circle? How do we control it? Not properly explained. Please, keep to the basics. Personnal impressions are of limited interest for people who want to learn about QuickShots.
This is a very useful video especially for those people that got this drone as their first drone and they are uncertain how to use the Quickshots.
Thank you Ryan!! This is such a great drone!

The radius of the circle definitely changes as it executes the maneuver. AFAIK the only way around this is to widen the radius to reduce the perceived variation.
You make a great suggestion. Thank you!
Hi Marcus,
If you think about it it's to discourage pilots from doing a quick shot under head height!
That does make sense!
Thanks it is helpful for a beginner
Thank you very much! I'm glad it helped!
great video Sir.
Can this drone be set to do multiple circles instead of only one circle? If not, is there a drone that can do continuous circles, and maybe slower circles?
If there is a way to make it do multiple orbits I don't know what it is. QuickShots just does one.
@@IdahoQuadcopter I kind of thought that, because they dont want you to walk away from it, I think it should be hands on all the time. Thank you, and great videos. I think the DJI mini 2 SE is the one I will go with.

The reason I am asking this very important question is to determine the forward, backward movements are with respect to opeator (course lock) or with respect to the front position of the drone?
If the drone is facing away from you, pulling the right stick back will bring the drone back to you.

I’m having a problem . The quick shot comes up and I can choose a shot and highlight myself but after I do that I can’t hit the start button ??? Any suggestions ?
You must have an SD card installed on the drone for QuickShots to work. 👍
I don't have the options you show. Is it because I didn't insert the memory card?
Yes, you must have a memory card inserted for the QuickShots to show.
I tried in the house and quick shot wont come up. But out doors it goes.
You did great thank you

@@annieo.4779 I'd say the next step may be to contact DJI support. 👍
If you were to stand stationary instead of spinning with the drone, would it be more accurate?
Possibly, I think when it gets to a certain distance it loses you no matter what.
Thanks, Marcus! I always pick up something new from your videos. One question occurred to me. On the Dronie distance of 120 meters, is that horizontal distance, or slant range distance?
I'm looking forward to your next video.
Thank you, Fred! I suspect the range setting is horizontal distance, but we'd have to ask DJI to be sure. 🙂
Thanks 🤝

@ beautiful neighborhood too, btw. I’ve got family in Nampa and Caldwell and I love going up to Idaho.
@@supersimplemarketing I usually use the onboard memory on the mic.
