    Carson, I have a rule: I don’t fly if it’s not a DJI. Plain and simple. I had to trade in my old drone because it broke and got the Magic Air 2. A few vids ago you said “most people are only interested in DJI” and I thought that was mularkey. I stand corrected. There’s a reason people are hyped about DJI folks

      The first drone I bought in 2018 was a Typhoon H. It was a very large drone and a total mistake! I even had it replaced when the original one failed to work properly. The second one wouldn’t even bind to the console! I got a full refund thankfully and last year I bought the drone featured in this video. It’s ace!

    "Disable Sideways Flight" is also handy to have when you need to shoot scenes that require straight runs. I've had to reshoot because of slight sideways motion caused by accidental roll input. I see iOS provides just a numeric scale for "Pitch Speed" and "Yaw Rotation Speed", whereas on Android the scale is one degree/sec for both of these items.

    A good presentation! I would have added that setting 45 Waypoints drains the battery. There is therefore a provision (a Waypoints library) for saving the set Waypoints (icon top left), after which one can insert a fresh battery, load the saved Waypoints and start flying.

      @@carsonmtech Hey Carson... Thanks for asking.
      On my first flight, I had a jerky or delayed video transmission. UGH! Did contact DJI, but they really couldn't suggest anything. I did go in and recheck all the Camera Settings. The Coding Format was set at H.265. Hmmm... Reset that to H.264. I think I also reset my Format to MP4. After that, there was a Firmware update for the drone, which wasn't there when I first flew. So downloaded that. These things seemed to have helped to smooth out the jerkiness, but not entirely. I'd say 90% better. There was still (prior to this current update) a slight jerkiness in certain camera moves - panning in a 360, there was s stutter. Doing rapid pan might be the reason. Slower pans not as noticeable. Transmission is currently set to HD. I'm using an iPad Mini 4 as my "device" - all updates on that are current. I really do like the ability to adjust the Gimbal settings now.
      Oh... In case you ask, I am quite aware of moving the control sticks slowly when I'm doing various camera moves.
      The hardest is the circle around a POI (trying not to use the autonomous function for now), both CW and CCW.

      YES! SO DANG ANNOYING! I thought that was just me having that issue. I only fly my Mavic Air 2 on a regular week about once a week or once every week and a half and it’s super annoying to go and get ready to shoot a video and then realize that the batteries are all needing charged. This should at least be user adjustable up to a point. Say, the option to choose every 4, 7, 10, or 14 days for discharge.

DJI Go has a nice setup but it doesn't seem to work with the Mavic Air 2. Any ideas?

    Great video. I'm about to purchase the Mavic Air 2 and was wondering what you thought about the upcoming remote ID regulations? I actually emailed the FAA about this and they told me that there would be a grace period for people who owned non-compliant drones. He said that there would be aftermarket remote ID modules that could be retrofitted to existing drones to make them compliant. That doesn't sound like something that the average drone owner would be able to do...unless the module sits on top of your drone like a beacon. Thoughts?

If I go with the mavic air 2, and am going to use the footage I capture in my youtube videos, would I have to register the drone as a commercial drone? Or can I just register as recreational? Im looking online and getting mixed answers. Would it be better to just go with the mini since I can avoid this whole headache? Thanks in advance :D
