Hey Carson, not sure who you're addressing this question to, but I'm flying the 2Pro and the MA2. Since the recent firmware update on the MA2, it might well become my "go to" drone. Time will tell. Unfortunately, I haven't flown since the middle of July, due to various reasons. (Seriously smokey skies and air being one.) So perhaps this coming month, I'll be able to resume my cinematic practice flights. Have thought of many shots I'd like to try. I do try and practice, watching some of my previous drone footage, with my controller in hand, just to practice the stick movements. LA LA Land is not an easy place to drone fly. Many times its an hours drive to fly without having to unlock Geofencing. Cheers.....
MA2! Hey do you ming doing a video of battery best practices? I had to send my MA2's batteries back to DJI because they overheat after being charger and resting for less than 24 hrs. How do you update the firmware on them? What's the best way to charge them? an Hr. before a flight? the day before? stored them in the carrying case? etc... Thanks! thanks for your videos!!!
I’ve been searching for a video to simply explain how to capture downward shots….seriously had no clue (only had my drone for a few days) thank you for this!!! So so helpful
Man, finally, I been watching a lot of vids on how to move the damn camera up and down, and all the dumb vids are just talking about everything for nothing, thanks bro
Young man, thank you for your precise lessons in driving this amazing bird im currenly 68 and a rookie but your schooling is well administered . thanks Im subscrided. David
Hey Carson.... Glad you covered this gimbal movement. I've been playing with this technique a lot. Got a few movements to try. Perhaps using your basket ball hoop - start at ground level, with gimbal pointed up, perhaps at the hoop, or just below. As you rise in the air, move your gimbal to maintain a center point on the hoop, rising above the backboard about 10 feet. Then reverse the movement. Another one - go out about 500 or more; hit the RTH button.As the drone comes close to the RTH home plate, start to pan down with the gimbal, keeping the 'H' somewhat centered in frame. Give the drone time to orient itself, especially if coming at home plate from a different direction. Its kind of a cool shot. Another exercise - if you have a tree line close by, take off, fly toward the tree line (at a safe altitude to make sure you clear the trees) - gimbal down as you approach the tree line to maintain the top of the trees, and then pan back up as you cross over, perhaps making a turn toward on open field. Just some ideas. Tony
Tony, great ideas! I appreciate it and all your contributions beneath all my videos all the time. Hope you’re staying healthy and safe! Fly safe my man!
@@carsonmtech Hey Carson... Just one more exercise if you like.... Find a curvy stream or bike path, gimbal positioned so you see mostly trail or stream, but have enough forward view so as not to hit anything. (Might have a bit of far horizon as a context/environment orientation.) Fly at an altitude of 10 or 20 feet AGL, and follow the path or stream, trying to keep it mostly centered in frame. Then reverse and fly back the direction you came. Requires the turn, bank, and forward stick combo co-ordination. Don't fly too quickly. This is supposed to be a quasi-cinmatic move.
Thanks. Bought my Mini in 7/2000 and flew quite a bit that summer. Then life started interfering and I havent flown in nearly 2½ yrs and forgot a lot of the settings and flying details. There's a lot to remember...Time to review all the settings and controls & get back in the air and this was very helpful!
I've had a mini for like 2 years and never even noticed the gimble wheel on my controller. As soon as I saw you do that I had to run and grab it just to check that it was a thing 🤣
THANK YOU!!! I've been combing RUclips to find a video on moving that gimbal and FINALLY YOU covered it! I am a FAN now! and will be coming back for more videos!
Thank you Kelly! I’m glad I was able to teach you more about the gimbal like you were wanting. Take care and happy Independence Day if you’re in the US!
@@carsonmtech SAME. No one would tell me to twist that button in the back to aim the camera up or down... was killing me trying to figure it out with Google. Thank you
I found this video most helpful. I generally knew a lot of this but some of it I did not. I am starting to utilize these techniques in my drone work so I do appreciate this upload.
great video Carson !!! I love the detailed instruction that you provided so I subscribed and Liked this video. I look forward to viewing more instructional vids on your channel. Peas out. Steve
I have the P3S and mini but do not have time to fly either. But this is a great video. I do like to fly backwards while slowly moving the gimble up to bring the subject into frame.
I know this is an old vid but I just got an old mavic pro for free and though I've flown Mavic 3 minis I was not familar with this remote and all of the controls. It would've made more sense that the small joystick controls the gimbal movement.
Hello Brother, Your videos helps a lot, I request you to do a detailed unboxing and review on the DJI Mini 2 which is going to launch on 5th November? It'll be very helpful. Thanks. Love from India🇮🇳❤️
Hi Carson, I plan to get the Part 107 Cert. (I used to fly airplanes at a flight school) I got my study book in the mail today. Should I start with a Mini or Air 2 or do the Mini for practicing and upgrade to a Mavic Pro later. I create TV commercials and I will need some good quality footage for clients. My friend is shooting with a Mavic Pro for me now. Your blue eyeglasses "rock" too.
Thank ya in regards to the glasses :). As far as what to start on, if you absolutely have zero experience with drones and have the cash, I would start with a Mavic Mini or an older Phantom 3 or possibly used Phantom 4 drone. I say those as those are just much more easy to learn with because they allow YOU, the pilot, more direct control since they don’t have sensors really. That comes with a level of having to learn to really fly a drone, but I think that’s valuable. They still have GPS positioning, and depending on the model, pretty much all actually have downwards facing sensors in the least to assist with landing. After learning with those, if their specs aren’t adequate, my end all be all drone would be the Mavic 2 Pro since it has its 1” Hasselblad sensor which looks absolutely gorgeous for pretty much all videos and photos with very high resolution. In saying that, I also like my Mavic Air 2 a lot and also think it has a pretty decent sensor, so that may also be good. I’m actually currently in the process of making a video about the Mavic Air 2 sensor which will come out within the next week or so, so look out for that!
@@carsonmtech Thanks Carson. I will let you know what I end up with and watch your Air 2 video. James Biro.😎 Here is a Mavic Pro TV spot we did: ruclips.net/video/nAqHrwHsZ0M/видео.html
I have a DJI mavic air 2 and I have seen videos of people controlling their gimbals from their phone/controller by just touching the screen and dragging where they want the camera to face. They basically have complete control over the camera. But I can’t figure out how they do it. Is there a setting in need to find?
Do you know if all DJI drones can move the camera? I've just brought a DJI mini se and I can't tell if the camera moves down or not 😅 (haven't flown it yet)
This is not what I’m looking for, I wanted to change gimble left button to the right button because I’m using profile number 3 which feels more like Xbox controller layout, left analog stick is only as a wheel, left, right forwards, backwards. I guess I can’t change that

Ayy how’s it’s going? I just got mine yesterday.
I’m loving the mini se. And I already want to upgrade. I’m in absolute love with this drone. Eyeing the mini 3 pro.
In the same exact boat and this video was super helpful! Literally just needed to figure out how to angle the camera down!
Man, finally, I been watching a lot of vids on how to move the damn camera up and down, and all the dumb vids are just talking about everything for nothing, thanks bro
Young man, thank you for your precise lessons in driving this amazing bird im currenly 68 and a rookie but your schooling is well administered . thanks Im subscrided.

Was a good refresher indeed 🇯🇲
Very useful video , especially for learning how to handle the gimball! Thank you!
Thanks dude. Just bought my mini. This opens a whole new world.

Thank you for your explanation Carson, I learned a lot from your video, you explain it so well!💗
This is awesom! Thanks for the help!
Thank you for the video! I'm a new flyer and couldn't figure out how to move the gimbal!
I definitely learned something. Thank you
Just the video I was looking for.
Thank you!! Awesome information

Today I've just bought the mini 2 and I did not know how to look down haha!
Excellent instructions and presentation style!
Very helpful thank you
Very useful thank you
Man U make my day with this video very very helpful. Thanks
I have the P3S and mini but do not have time to fly either. But this is a great video. I do like to fly backwards while slowly moving the gimble up to bring the subject into frame.
It usually always results in a great shot!

Thank you very much!
LIKE THE NEW INTRO
Nice video bro. Really helped me a lot. Thanks so much!
Thanks mr carson
thanks for the information, it really helped me in using the DJI Mavic Mini drone
Dude you rock thanks man!! I love my DJI 😆
Thank you🎉
Thank you!!!
Nice job! Thanks for posting. Some handy advice. I have an Air 2, also. A great drone.
awesome thanks
Great video! Thank you!
Do we have to keep on scrolling the gimbal or just one scroll and then it will keep on moving the view up or down.
Wow! Great video man I loved it Great re cap on how to fly a drone many times:)
Today was my first flight and dude you really helped me
Thanks a ton ✌
Carson, excellent video. Going to go out and do some practicing!
Super... I like your all trik
My wha now?
Hello Carson, keep going you doing very good
Thank you
pull down on your gimble stick lmao
This is a very clearly presented and informative video tutorial, thanks very much. (now sub'd)
Thank you sir!
🙏 thank you
I feel so stupid I didn’t even know that when was there lol

Thanks! - 2:01 mark your going way too fast to keep up just fyi for future video's. I had to pause and replay a few times just to get it.
How do you move left or right.

ruclips.net/video/nAqHrwHsZ0M/видео.html
How do you know when the gimbal is back in alignment with the body of the drone. Or is there a quick reset button when in flight?
Tilt = Up and Down Movement Pan = Left and Right Movement
It's "tilt...up or down. "Pan...left or right.
Me and my drone are both watching this video 😂
Intro too long at 1 minute but I actually learned alot from this video
These drones need GPS to fly. If you fly it in remote area without GPS signal, it will not fly, right?
Can the canera be tilted completely downwards or only 60 degreees?
Is there anyway to reserve the wheel? I don't like moving it to the right and it goes up. I want it backwards
Bro show how to select object and move drone
I have a Mavic Pro... is there a way to lock onto subject so doesn't matter where I fly, the drone will maintain focus on subject?
Have you had to replace the propellers yet? Doing mine soon a video on this would be great 👍🏻
I have not luckily, but you mentioning this has prompted me to add the idea to my list of future videos!
Love your videos, gave me the confidence to buy my mini
@@carsonmtech help!!! I've got a warning come up "prop spinning to fast " mav mini ?

I have mavic air 2 just got it 2 months ago been trying to fly as much as I can . Not sure how to post my pics yet
It would be nice if DJI would add a option to let you know how close the MINI drone is to an object and don’t crash it ..
can the mini shot straight down photos? how far can the gimbal tilt down?
My question is why can't I move the gimbal side to side ever? (Left to right)
What is dji mavic mini app name
i love clips with long introductions
