- Hey All,
I am so glad I had my DJI Mini 2 SE packed with me because the clouds held off long enough for me to pull over for a spontaneous flight. I have always wanted to time a flight down this particular water feature during late evening light. Although I only had 56% Battery it goes to show how much you can still capture with a short flight. Check out the links below for more information!

My mini 2 se arrives tomorrow. First drone. Long time RC flyer. Mostly planes and a few helicopters. Looking forward to a new avenue to pursue because I am also big into photography. Thanks for your channel! I live in Utah.
Super excited for you! This is what it’s all about 🙏🏻📸 I appreciate you sharing your experience and tuning into the channel. Keep us posted on your new drone! Utah will be an epic place to fly
I'm so excited, I bought this drone a couple of days ago.
No way!! That’s so fun to hear. Where are you flying from?
@@The-Drone-Guy I'm in Southeast Ireland, some great places around here. Also no airport or anything anywhere near.
@@everydaydrone that sounds like the perfect set up. Was just talking with a friend about their trip to Ireland this summer. Maybe I’ll let them borrow one of my mini drones. Definitely let me know when you start sharing your videos I’d love to see the landscape there 👍📸
I'm from New Zealand I just got a mini 2se been watching your videos for times and tricks thanks heaps
Wow that’s cool for me to hear you’re tuning in all the way from NZ. Thanks for sharing, what a beautiful country to own a drone 😃👍
Great flight, I really enjoy the locations you find. Thanks for sharing!
Wow I really appreciate that! Thanks so much
Great little flight as always mate, great to see you out again! Very informative and amazing views well done mate 👌
Hey there my friend! Thanks for watching , felt so good to get a flight in even if it was brief. The spring weather will be here to stay very soon 👍🚀☀️📸
Great vid! I was nervous for a while after buying my Mini 3. It seemed like all the YT vids pertaining to drones were people being harassed while flying. I'm beginning to realize that is not the case.
Not at all! Especially if you take the time to prepare where you will be flying - also the more you fly confidence will naturally build. I plan on coming out with some very basic tutorials on finding good locations. Hope this helps for now!
@@The-Drone-Guy Looking forward to them!
Super, super hyped to recieve mine!....... ordered a DJI mini 2 se fly more combo yesterday! 😊
No way!! That’s super exciting. Where will you be flying it first??
I picked up my mini 2 se a few days ago, im.waiting for the wind to die down a bit ober the next few days so i can take it outdoors for a maiden flight
That is very exciting and also a smart choice to wait! It will be well worth it. Summer time is usually the best for droning 😁✌️🚁📸
So amazing. Giving me inspiration with my new 2 se!
That’s really awesome to hear! Thanks for tuning in as well as sharing
Very nice! The gimbal is still "dancing"
I know did you catch that wiggle!? Haha so thankful it’s not permanent- so far haven’t had a chance to fly it without much wind ! Looking forward to calmer summer weather
Hand launching and landing will get rid of the need to carry a landing pad. I purchased this drone in the Philippines but will give to my nephew as I got a mini 4 pro waiting for me at home in the UK. I wanted 4k, obstacle avoidance, and auto tracking.
I often do that especially at the beach but sometimes It’s just as easy to throw it on the truck. The landing pad is mostly to avoid dust and debris getting blown into the gimbal components. You are going to really enjoy the mini 4 pro 🚁👍🔥
amazing flight .
👍📸🚀
Nice dji
Thanks a lot! Are you flying a DJI drone?
Hey use this to buy the mini 4k for you excellent channel😁
Omg you just made my day man! Thanks so much
Nice place brother ❤❤❤
Thanks ✌️ one of my favorite local spots
@@The-Drone-Guy it's beautiful in nice shots 😍
what photo editing software did you use? it turned out amazing! my se should arrive early next week.
Thanks a lot! I have been enjoying capcut pro on mobile. I also like to use iMovie as well!
i wanna buy this drone and your video was a great help for me 🙏🔥
Glad I could help! I really appreciate you tuning in
I bought this drone a couple weeks ago, I had to travel for some medical appointments and haven't gotten the chance to fly yet. Hopefully I will soon when the wind calms down!
SOrry to hear that you haven't had much time to fly. But like you said you haven't been missing much the weather has been terrible. Only better drone weather to enjoy going forward however!
@@The-Drone-Guy Yes for sure! I'm in Newfoundland so unless it's summer it's rarely not windy and even then most of the time it's windy lol
@@NLFlyFisher no way that’s in many ways not too far from me, but boy way north. I can’t imagine some of the landscapes your way. But as you said very unforgivable weather! Please keep me posted on your progress. I’d love to see videos of your area 👍🚀🚁
@@The-Drone-Guy it's a beautiful province! That's actually the reason why I wanted a drone because I know how beautiful it looks at eye level but can only imagine how it looks from a bird's eye view! Not many people around here have drones so I seen your videos on the mini 2se and figured it was great for what I want to use it for! Right now I'm looking for editing software what can run on my computer, only 8gb of ram. I haven't done any editing so this computer worked great but I have no idea what software to use lol DaVinci resolve was a no go
@@NLFlyFisher honestly I hope to get up there some day. I have friends in Nova Scotia but that’s still pretty south of you! Haha
What computer or mobile/tablet do you have, im happy to suggest some photo/video apps or software to use
That’s nice video 😍what’s your video editing app???
Thanks a lot! I use iMovie when on my Mac and CapCut pro for iPad and mobile
@@The-Drone-Guy thank a lot 😍
Bro, where is it? Do you live there? Very beautiful landcape.
I used to live up the rd from here, now I live in the next town over. It is kittery maine, coastal new england!
Nice video i also have mini 2 se
Can i know some tips on editing raw videos??
Yes I can! I’d suggest getting a basic program or app to begin applying presets/filters, as well as make manual changes and color corrections. I plan on making detailed videos in my process so stay tuned!
would love to see a vid of you editing photos
I’m glad to hear that! I have been interested in sharing a BTS of my editing process with a link to the presettings ✌️📸
@@The-Drone-Guy what program do you use for editing the photos
@@francisxaviernnadiekwe2679 I most typically use adobe photoshop, but sometimes will use snapseed on mobile
@@francisxaviernnadiekwe2679 sorry I meant a mix of adobe lightroom - and some advanced stuff in photoshop
9 hours of recording remains? WOW how big of an SD card are you using?
nice spot 👍🏼
Thanks so much! It really is a cool location with many opportunities for photos and video. I used a 256 gb memory card 👍📸
@@The-Drone-Guy duh... guess that makes sense at 2k it's been too long since i've had one of the 256k cards emptied.
great stuff from what i've seen you do so far✌🏻
@@lambo_drives wow thanks a lot! And oh don’t worry I have plenty of 32, 64 and 128 gb cards. I always feel the best knowing I have more storage though haha 😂 thanks a lot for watching!
@@The-Drone-Guy same 😁 later 🫱🏼🫲🏻
hai..can i know what apps that are you using for editing this videos
Hey! I primarily use iMovie on my Mac but often times will use CapCut pro app on mobile. There is a free version as well
I'm curious! I bought a Mini 2 SE a couple of days ago, but had to send it back immediately. For some reason, the Drone connected to the RC-N1, but after 5 seconds, dropped connection and wouldn't reconnect unless restarted. And then it would drop again, within 5-8 seconds. This kept happening after the first Firmware update, and resetting Firmware isn't possible from my understanding. Have you experienced or heard about this phenomenon with the Mini series? Been really liking your approach to the DJI Mini 2 SE and it's capabilities!
That is definitely bizarre! I have not heard of this - I have heard of DJI being great about replacing anything that isn’t working correctly. Was this a brand new model or a refurbished unit? I appreciate you following my channel. Keep me posted I’ll try to help as much as I can!
@@The-Drone-Guy aye, it was a brand new one from a swedish reputable retailer. I tried googling my issue but couldnt find anything. People losing connection between rc and phone was common, but not Aircraft to Rc.
It's sent for warranty, I hope they are as helpful and quick as I've read. Looking forward to showing of some of the beauty in northern Sweden.
Thanks for the reply, I'll keep you posted ;)
@@Crodhe oh I see that is strange but I’m glad it’s likely you will have it fixed! Yes I’d personally love to see your videos so keep me updated ✌️📸🚀
@@The-Drone-Guy Just thought I'd give you the update! Drone is back in my home and despite the terrible weather in northern Sweden, it flies great. I'm still struggling with colors due to everything being white/gray this time of year, but I love it. Managed to snag a decent photo of one of the mountain retreats up here. A bit of editing and suddenly it looks like a small scale model village. Thanks for your reply earlier and good luck with your summer endeavours! /Crodhe
@@Crodhe thanks so much for the update! Here is to us both getting better weather very soon - cheers!
I've been getting an issue where I'm pointing the controller to the drone but on the GPS says I'm sideways to the drone..does anyone know why it does that or if there's a fix???
make sure everything is calibrated, this sounds like may be the Compass needing Calibration? check your menus under control and safety for these calibration points. hope that works for you ✌🏻
I agree on this point. Take time after you initially turn the drone on to let it align with the gps and satellites. What controller are you using?
Hey, i have a question (actually 2 questions, i guess), i will try to make them as short as possible. lol. I live in a DJI altitude zone, i guess it's called the grey zone, says altitude restricted to 500 meters. WHen i fly my drone, i cant go any higher than 490 feet, I know ur not supposed to fly higher then u can see, i have really good lights, and can still see it fine, it stops me every time at 490 feet, not meters, feet. How can i go higher??? That wasn't really my question tho, that i was writing about.This is... Where im at in the altitude zone restriction is right on the edge, so i am wondering, if i fly the drone to an area that isn't restricted, can I go higher, OR do i have to have the remote be outside the grey zone? Hope u understand what i mean. I just want a way to go a little higher. Loving your channel man.
Hey there, I am really glad to hear you are enjoying my channel. I would suggest downloading the ALOF "Air Control" App. It is really helpful in knowing what airspace you are in and what the height restrictions are. 400 feet is the max unless you are part 107 certified.
However I think to answer your question, have you looked in the the Control tab of the settings menu via the DJI fly app? there you should be able to set the height limit. I can't guarantee that will work, you still may hit a geozone or something. What part of the country are you in?
@@The-Drone-Guy I have put that up as high as it will go, Im in moncton New Brunswick, on the east coast. The height i have it set to is like 1500 feet i think, somewhere around there. I dont want to go higher than that very often, but it would be nice to be able to do it once in a while. I didnt expect to be limited at 490 feet. That's not really that high. And i will try the app, thanks.
@@toddlauretteHabsforlife I’m not 100% sure of laws in Canada so that is also why I may be limited. But whichever governing body in Canada handles aviation, see which apps they recommend for sectional mapping. I hope to get up your way for some droning. I bet the landscape only looks cooler the higher you go. Thanks for always sharing your experiences!
Typically how far can you fly, distance wise ?
It does depend on the conditions and circumstances but I’d say it’s capable of flying up to 1/2 a mile in most scenarios. But under better conditions I have flown it up to 3 miles away. Generally that is completely unnecessary and most of the best images and video I capture are within the general area where I launch. Hope this helps!
@@The-Drone-Guy Is the Mini 2 SE a big upgrade over the original Mini?
@@Stucknthe80z I’m so sorry I started a reply and it either got deleted or I was disrupted. I’d say it’s an upgrade for sure. You won’t see a big difference from a photo and video perspective but you absolutely will from a connection perspective l. So to point to your original question, the mini 2 se can go further and hold a better transmission allowing you to make more use of that awesome little camera. Hope this helps 😁👍
What micro sd card are you using for storage?
I always grab SandDisk Extreme Pro and try to get ones that aren’t least 128gb 👍
Awesome thank you for your reply, and your content 👍
@@marcelinonlc anytime!!
I have a fly more combo Battery kit and Powerbank from a DJI Mini 2SE and the RC almost brand new! and a package of comparing ND Filters! I crashed my SE Drone against a street lightning pole and bought me a DJI Mini 3 instead! So i want to sell those items to someone with a DJI Mini 2SE drone! It's worth atleast 275 Euro's, but im selling this for 100 Euro's so it can be used again and make someone happy with this equipment! Let me know if your interested, and post this under my last uploaded video on my channel! Thanks for reading this, and nice video btw.... Greeting, SkyLab.
Hi there I will consider this and keep you posted. Thanks for sharing!
