It’s nice to see that DJI has refined these quick shots over the years and added them to their entry level drones. Great tutorial Marcus, and thanks for sharing.
Hi Marcus 👋 My friend 😀. I just bought my first mini 4k drone today from ebay brand new. Coming by next week. I'm so excited and looking forward to flying this amazing drone soon. This will be my 5th DJI drone lol. Watching your great videos so I will be ready to go. LoL, I already named this one the DJI Marcus mini 4k drone. Happy New Year 🎉 my friend.
I just got this drone. I am going to Hawaii and didn't know those preset quick shots existed. I also didn't know i could get the drone to focus on a desired point so i am feeling better about this whole thing now. Before your video i could not figure out how to get the camera to leave a horizontal viewing plain and almost returned it. I have so much to learn in so little time but thank you for getting me started. Sounds like i better sink another $100 and get 2 more batteries with the charging dock.
Hey mate! I'm looking for a drone right now. Just wondering if this is actually a good drone for the price. Because it is $700 here in Australia (fly more combo). So do U recommend this to me personally?
Thanks for doing these videos! Do you know if there is a DJI drone group in the Pocatello area? I have had my Mini 4K for 3 days and have flown it twice. Your videos helped me with confidence to try it out!
I might be wrong but as with other youtubers have claimed it doesn't have avoidance, dji mini 4k has downward vision system, which according to dji is a type of avoidance system, so it only works on objects below, might be worth just checking into that and revise your comments on that. This detail is found on dji website when you use comparison. Good video dude.
Thank you! Yes I am familiar with the TOF sensor and Optical Flow sensor on the Mini 4K. Almost all drones including many toy drones have downward sensors. Traditionally when we refer to OA on a drone we’re talking front rear and side sensors.
I bought one of these yesterday...just waiting for delivery. I got a great deal. The flymore kit for £299 sterling. Love your videos by the way. Great for a beginner.
I bought a drone last week. Your RUclips channel is very helpful. Thank you. When I use the dronie of Quickshot, it automatically records when the camera moves away, but it does not record when it returns. I need a video when the drone returns to me. How can I record this?
Does the subject have to remain stationery? I’m a dancer and would definitely want to use this function for dance shots so I was curious if that would even work
Great videos! Thanks for the lessons 🎮 unfortunately I don't have this on my 4k mini. I've tried in cine-normal-sports and there's no option on video or photo mode to find this automated options? Also I don't have a SD card in the drone just uploaded straight to my mobile.. could this be the reason? Please help.. Thanks for your time
Can you please do a video showing us the Pano option? I've tried it but it just takes individual photographs, i can't figure out how to stitch them 🤷🏻♂️
@@IdahoQuadcopter I've been told to stitch them together in the fly app but I just can't work out how to do it. I look forward to a potential video on this.
I live in North Texas , but I am out in the Rv for the summer. Wyoming it’s very windy and the 4 can hold its own but twice I had t It really fight to come back in sport mode. The air was used both times after and it had no issues. I am so brought the EVO 2 c3 that’s a tank. Much heavier than the 4 and shoots great video and stills. The air 3 in strong wind the video was more stable than the EVO.
What do you do about birds? I recently unboxed my first drone (mini 4k) and am constantly on the lookout for birds.. I know about the fly straight up method but was wondering what else YOU do / your mindset about the entire thing? Thank you in advance!!
Even though i'm based in the Uk, bird attacks on drones is a rare thing, birds have to be trained to go after drones otherwise they would like most wild animals do with unknown and loud objects, they avoid them.
Hi Marcus, I have a question for you. I am presently making my annual sojourn in your State at Stoneridge Resort in Blanchard. I notice several yellow areas on the geo map, saying "Yellow zones indicate regions where operation of your drone MAY raise security, privacy or safety concerns." If I respect those concerns, in your experience and knowledge, may I fly my mini drone there? Thanks. Roger, Canada
I'm not very familiar with Northern Idaho, but I looked up Blanchard on the sectional chart and it's in class G airspace. Other than that I don't know. If you download an app called Air Aware it will tell you if you're in legal airspace.
Waiting for my drone to arrive. I have one question about QuickShots. The speed of the drone in QuickShots is the same or it changes on the selection you have (cine-normal-sport) ?
Really finding your videos helpful. One questions however. 10mins into this video you indicate that the drone should return to it's starting point when shooting in quickshot mode. Each time I've done this the drone just hovers in its finishing spot and I have to manually return it. Any hints on what I can do to resolve this issue as it would be super helpful to have that function activated..
Hey, I couldn't find these options even when I clicked the reel button, I tried this when It was about 60m in the sky. I didn't try it with me right in front of it, could this be why?
Is your drone actually DJI Mini 4k? I just got the mini 4k from Amazon. It's not available on DJI website. How to get the quickshots menu? It's not coming up for me. I spent hours! Don't think mini 4k support quickshots??? When I clicked video, it toggled to the video camera/still pic etc
I just got mine I pay cash for everything the app is asking for a card never had one. Does eney one know how to make it work. With out a card. It said free app . Can someone please help me.
I managed to crash my drone when I tried quickshot first time.. I should have checked that I really have more space. I had panic with controller and pressed wrong button and it hit to trees. Good that I took DJI care. I got new drone for 32€. I had to use flyaway coverage. Can use it only once. But atleast I didn't lost whole drone.
Wondering how this is legal, remote id not enabled in US for this drone and this is clearly a for profit use under part 107 of footage captured using the mini 4k. I’m hoping Dji fixes this but in the meantime if I’m not mistaken should have some remote id module stuck on it somewhere to be compliant. Do let me know if I’m wrong as I would like to use it under part 107 when I get my license!
Just got my mini 4k i love your tutorials really slow and easy for us beginners to follow 👍
That is always great to hear! Thank you!
It’s nice to see that DJI has refined these quick shots over the years and added them to their entry level drones. Great tutorial Marcus, and thanks for sharing.
Absolutely! Thank you Mr. Brown!
I love my Mini 4K... Thanks for the video
The Mini 4K is a great drone!
Thank you for
tutorials.
I look like I've been flying drones forever.
When I told someone I have had for 3 days, they don't believe me.
Great teacher
That is wonderful to hear! Thank you!
Thanks for this great tutorial. I got some great results after watching it.
That is great to hear! Thank you!
Even though I won't be buying this drone, your tutorials remind me what I can do at some of my secret spots. Thanks for the inspiration.
Thank you John!!
Hi great video can I ask idiot question if I have all grid lines on my mini 4 k will they show on video playback
Hi Marcus 👋 My friend 😀.

Happy New Year to you as well Shane! Enjoy your new Mini 4K drone. 🙂
Keep up these videos. So helpful as I'm new to the drone space and just got mini yesterday
Thank you, will do!

Have fun and enjoy that new drone! I'm making a trip to Hawaii soon myself.
What is the regulation for piloting drones in Hawaii I'm from canada
Brilliant video thank you so much, i have been wondering how to operate these settings and you have answered my questions wonderfully.
You are welcome! I'm glad it helped. 👍
Marcus nice video and tutorial with your DJi Mini 4. Very informative video.
Thank you, I'm glad you enjoyed it!!
@@IdahoQuadcopter Marcus you are more than welcome.
Glad you got to try the yaw controls on RTH. I had tried it on my very first RTH before I posted to you that it worked. Now I play with it every time.
Yes, I like that feature too. Thank you!
Thank you for the tips about quick shot, I will try at open field space using those features 👍👍
Have fun! It's a great feature!
Thanks for this guide! 💟
My pleasure!
OK Marcus another great video. Let’s get that bird in the air.
Thank you Robert!
first class video Marcus
I appreciate it Henry!
That's great 👍 just bought the 4k didn't realize it had all those features
Same here 😎👍
DJI builds some great tech into these drones. 🙂

There's so much you can do with this little quad.
I agree John, for the price it's amazing!
I bought one of these yesterday...just waiting for delivery. I got a great deal. The flymore kit for £299 sterling.
Love your videos by the way. Great for a beginner.
That is a fantastic deal! Have fun with your new drone!
That's a regular price in Thailand. UK is always expensive with weired pricing
Great video, Thanks, Señor.
You are very welcome!
Another nice tutorial 👍👍
It is absolutely my pleasure! Thank you!
Great tips, thanks
You're welcome! 👍
Superb video👌🏻 Sir one silly question! Your mic is connected to screen recording or to the other camera ?
I was recording direct to the mic. 👍
I'm here my friend watching you 🎉
👏👏👏😊
Thank you very much!
Great Video...When you use Orbit or rocket mode...Can you move.?..could you walk a short distance and still be the center shot?
If the drone was close enough to you, I'll bet that would work.
Thanks for the video 😊
My pleasure 😊
I bought a drone last week. Your RUclips channel is very helpful. Thank you. When I use the dronie of Quickshot, it automatically records when the camera moves away, but it does not record when it returns. I need a video when the drone returns to me. How can I record this?
Thank you! To record on return, exit the QuickShot menu and click record video. You would then fly the drone back manually.
Good video
Does the subject have to remain stationery? I’m a dancer and would definitely want to use this function for dance shots so I was curious if that would even work
It will follow some movement, but I suspect it might lose you during quick movements.
@@IdahoQuadcopter1 more question, do you know if there’s a way to film while it’s returning?
Great video,
Thank you Chris!
Great videos! Thanks for the lessons 🎮 unfortunately I don't have this on my 4k mini.
I've tried in cine-normal-sports and there's no option on video or photo mode to find this automated options?
Also I don't have a SD card in the drone just uploaded straight to my mobile.. could this be the reason?
Please help.. Thanks for your time
Yes, you must have an SD card inserted in the drone for QuickShots to work. 👍
@IdahoQuadcopter perfect! Thanks for the info. Happy Flying 🎮🚁🌍
Can you use these quick shots on a like a car or truck
Yes, you sure can.
Good information. For $300.00 i bought the mini 3, great drone, but the mini 4 pro has better obstacle avoidance, and the technology is better.
I'm glad you got the Mini 3 on sale. It's a great little drone. 👍
@@IdahoQuadcopterdoes this have obstacle avoidance? If so how good is it ? It’s half the price of a mini 4 pro with combo
Are you able to slow down the quickshots? So they will go through the sequence at a slower speed and lengthen the whole video?
You would need to do that in post production.
thank you vary good vid
You're welcome, thank you!
Can you please do a video showing us the Pano option?
I've tried it but it just takes individual photographs, i can't figure out how to stitch them 🤷🏻♂️
Yes, you have to either stich them together in the Fly App, or use a photo editor to do so. That is a good idea for a future video.
@@IdahoQuadcopter I've been told to stitch them together in the fly app but I just can't work out how to do it.
I look forward to a potential video on this.
Will the mini 4k do cruise control with the rc n3 like the Neo??
No cruise control on this one. 👍
Great vid thanks
Thank you for watching!

Yes, everyone says that Evo is a beast! I'll bet there are some great places to fly in Wyoming!
@@IdahoQuadcopter yes I will post some when back. I am in Idaho now
how is your mic setup?
Wireless mic on my collar. 👍
What do you do about birds? I recently unboxed my first drone (mini 4k) and am constantly on the lookout for birds.. I know about the fly straight up method but was wondering what else YOU do / your mindset about the entire thing? Thank you in advance!!
I've never had any adverse bird interaction in many years of flying. Thank you!
Even though i'm based in the Uk, bird attacks on drones is a rare thing, birds have to be trained to go after drones otherwise they would like most wild animals do with unknown and loud objects, they avoid them.
How did you get the lines in the lens? To center the picture?
In the camera menu click on grid lines. 👍
@ thanks!
Have you tried putting it in Spotlight mode and doing a Daroy
This little drone does not have the focus track suite that includes Spotlight mode. 👍
Please Marcus how recording audio with dji mini 4k ? Thank you
I use the DJI Mic system. 👍
Hi Marcus, I have a question for you. I am presently making my annual sojourn in your State at Stoneridge Resort in Blanchard.

How do you receive the footage that you record ?
I upload it from the micro SD card to my computer.
@ is there another way to do it ? I don’t have a computer
Can you tap "+" or draw a box around any subject like only tap grass
Yes, you can set the POI (point of interest) wherever you want. 👍
What is the app you shown at the start?
UAV forecast and B4UFly.
@IdahoQuadcopter thank you
I didn't know my 4k mini could do this thought It was only for the pros 😀
It is a really fun feature on the Mini 4K. 🙂
Waiting for my drone to arrive. I have one question about QuickShots. The speed of the drone in QuickShots is the same or it changes on the selection you have (cine-normal-sport) ?
The QuickShots are executed at a fixed speed. I don't know of a way to change that.
Really finding your videos helpful. One questions however. 10mins into this video you indicate that the drone should return to it's starting point when shooting in quickshot mode. Each time I've done this the drone just hovers in its finishing spot and I have to manually return it. Any hints on what I can do to resolve this issue as it would be super helpful to have that function activated..
Thank you very much! If you hit the X when the drone finishes the QuickShot it will simply hover in place. That may be your issue.
Whats the maximum height and distance away can the drone go and are they restricted from first flight and if there restricted how do you disable it
I'm not sure, I've never tried it.
What was the app that you used in this?
The DJI Fly App
Can I record when It’s getting back to me? Or the function stops when it’s returning?
You'll need to exit QuickShot mode and enter video mode and start video to capture the return.
hi how long does the battery take to charge please ?
With a 20W charger about 45 minutes.
30 munit
What will happen if you suddenly move while doing the quickshots? Will it cancel the task and automatically to starting point?
The drone will continue its mission. 👍
What will happen if you do a quickshot and run or walk in the shot? Will it follow the subject? (If you set the distance to 30 meters for an example)
It can follow you somewhat. It will lose the subject easily though when you move.
can you move while its doing quick shots ?
I don't think it's intended to work that way, but you could try.
Does this drone have follow me mode? Please anwers. Ty
No, it does not.
What's the best phone for go fly app
iPhone 15 Pro Max is what I use. It works well. 👍
Do u think the DJI ban bill will go through?
I sure hope not. 🤷♂️
Hey, I couldn't find these options even when I clicked the reel button, I tried this when It was about 60m in the sky. I didn't try it with me right in front of it, could this be why?
You need to have a micro SD card installed on the drone. 👍
Awesome video but I think you shouldn’t turn when doing quick shots as it takes away from the shot.
Thank you.
Is your drone actually DJI Mini 4k? I just got the mini 4k from Amazon. It's not available on DJI website.
How to get the quickshots menu? It's not coming up for me. I spent hours! Don't think mini 4k support quickshots??? When I clicked video, it toggled to the video camera/still pic etc
You need to have a micro SD card in the drone for QuickShots to work.
@IdahoQuadcopter ahhhhh I ordered a micro card and should get it tomorrow. Thanks 👍
I just got mine I pay cash for everything the app is asking for a card never had one. Does eney one know how to make it work. With out a card. It said free app . Can someone please help me.
I've never had to give DJI any credit card information. I'm not sure. 🤷♂️
I managed to crash my drone when I tried quickshot first time.. I should have checked that I really have more space. I had panic with controller and pressed wrong button and it hit to trees. Good that I took DJI care. I got new drone for 32€. I had to use flyaway coverage. Can use it only once. But atleast I didn't lost whole drone.
I'm sorry about the crash, but I'm glad you had Care Refresh!

Thank you for watching!
Mini 4k has it built in you just have to register it
Man.....if this had waypoints....that would be even better.
You'll need a drone like the Postensic Atom or Fimi Mini for waypoints.
Quick shots will not be available unless you have a SD card inserted in the drone.
That is true. Thank you!
If you can think it you can probably fly it 😜
Ha! That's likely true! 🙂
uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.....
Parece mentira que con lo que costo desarrollar los minis este sigue teniendo vigencia
Yes, this drone is an incredible value!
