Наука
I was once a student at Wittenberg, along with Horatio and Hamlet. I do believe you were a professor there who taught the three of us about the flights of Daedalus and Icarus. You warned of the perils of flying too high or too low and the necessity of smooth flying. Ever since those days at university, I have followed your smooth-flying advice. Thank you, my professor.
Forsooth! For I am indeed Daedalus preaching to my army of Icaruses (Icarusi?); fly smooth, fly good; not too low; not too high.... You have been warned :)

😂 We need more comments like this!
in Ian Dave Australia, here as an ex flight instructor on little Cessnas from way back. I really appreciate this video,, your explanation of how we change the settings pitch yaw etc is so important . I have had a DJI Mavic 2 zoom for about four years and now as of yesterday got this little beast the mini 4 pro It’s a great machine. Thanks very much.
"Ian is my co-pilot" Love it! Your information is 100% trustworthy and reliable. Thank you for continuing to guide us with your content.!
Thank you❤
Fantastic video! Answered every question on this as a full newbie I had. Thank you.
Thanks for the tips Ian.
Thank you my friend for the max angular velocity will c how it goes on my mini 4 pro
Ian thanks for going the extra mile and freezing your butt off to make this. I’m super glad you did, the mini 4 is a bit jumpy but I love it more than any of my previous DJI drones. I change the settings. It should help
I suspect it was getting jumpy in that vid just hovering cos the props were icing up! It was blimmin freezing yesterday!
Clear & concise as usual champ. Always helpful for us rookies. Thanks for your time & effort.
Very helpful. Thank You.
Excellent review of the settings. Thanks so much for shivering in the cold to give them to us.
Thanks a lot for your Your tutorials
Excellent video thank you !!!
Ian, thanks for the great explanation of these settings this is the best, in depth description and most thorough discussion of them, that ive seen.
Thanks for sharing your settings. I'm making some adjustments now. Great video.
Thank you!
Great Tips ,Thanks.
thanks for the explanation
Brilliant thanks
Great info. Great demo To the point tThanks
Thanks Ian 👍 very useful video
Thank you once again.
Thanks for the lesson. Your information will help me greatly and I'm sure it will improve the quality of my video capture skills.
great vid - I need to try this setting in my Mini 4 pro
Great job Ian..!
I just received my new Mini 4 pro today and was looking for this setup wich was a very helpful for me.
My best regards.
Glad it helped :)
Very helpful advice. Thanks a bunch. I subscribed,
Thanks Ian. just upgraded from mini1 to mini4. Just need the wind & rain to stop so I can go and fly it. Jim
This is brilliant as always Ian, and a vid that I’m going to save to my ‘watch later’ list so I can refer back to it. You are very lucky to have such a beautiful garden to do this in as well (unlike another RUclipsr I could mention! 😂)
Nice sharing 😎🤝
Great video
Last time channel flypath i copy smooth setting mavic air 2. Now i want to copy this setting for my next m4p. Thank you for sharing.
Great video mate, just upgraded from mini 2 to the Pro 4 , this has helped me a lot thank you
Me Too Upgraded
Awesome Ian... very helpful and clear video my friend...thanks a quintillion... my videos need all the help you can offer...lol... keep them props up, and may God bless you and loved ones and keep you safe i pray...
I really am enjoying playing with my Mini 4. I haven't had a drone for a few years and I found that the sticks are very small with not a lot of room to wiggle them about on the Controller to get precise gentle filming movements.
To help me alleviate this predicament I changed the Expo settings so that when I start to move the sticks the drone moves slowly and cautiously and when I'm happy to "Give it the Beans" then I move the sticks further away from their central/neutral resting position. And when I want to move from "Full Beans" to more precise controlled movements, then I have more room to play and control what I'm doing when moving the sticks inwards.
I shall experiment with Nifty though as I was uncertain what the mode did.
BTW loving filming my drone at night. I haven't experimented with Night Time mode because the Dlog does such an excellent job with its 10bit colour profile.
great info mate but please fix your exposure on the camera next time..
I changed the settings and made so much of difference in the quality of my video. Only issue I was still have is the zoom control. Is their a setting to smooth the control in order to make the control so jumpy? Thank You and appreciate your videos. I've learned a lot.
Excellent tutorial. Movie and TV camera operators avoid jitter by panning no faster than 7 seconds for a fixed object at one side of the frame to arrive at the other - so the angular pan/turn rate will differ when zoomed in. I'd set that rate for the wide angle shots unless having to do critical shots in zoom.
The other thing which overcomes jitter is motion blur - achievable with ND filters - and the 180° Shutter Rule BUT I've never seen a good article which takes zoom, slo-mo and media frame-rates into account. And if you are videoing for TV in Europe, it's different to filming for publishing on RUclips... Your next video, Ian?
👍👍 Great tips Ian! I just received my new Mini 4 Pro this week and was really shocked at how rowdy the default settings for both _Cine_ and _Normal_ modes are, especially _Cine,_ as compared to my old Mini 1. And _Max Descent Speed_ set at 5 m/s is plummeting! It sounds like a doomed helicopter falling out of the sky caught in irrecoverable Vortex Ring State. But I'm definitely going to try _Nifty Bypass Mode_ as _Normal_ mode feels very restrictive when trying to slowly fly FPV around our fenced in yard with trees and shrubs scattered about.
Thanks again & Merry Christmas!😁
Thanks for the good words 🌲👍🏻
“Ian is my copilot”…I should make a t-shirt 😅 Many thanks sir! Great video as always. Rainy day is n south Chile, but I hope I give these a try tomorrow. Rock on 🤘🏼
This really put a smile on my face 🤠👍🏻
@@IaninLondon Hi Ian; just letting you know that i put the settings to the test, and it's a world of difference. We went to the mountains today, and i think i did pretty good for a second flight😅...lots of fears went away even with 56km/hr gusts. Pretty smooth footage on the mini 4 💪. Anyway, thanks again. I think that this video is A MUST for everyone🤘
Brand new DJI Mini 4 Pro OWNER, first time viewer AND NEW SUBSCRIBER!
Great teaching video rather than just say do ABC you showed the feature, demonstrated how different values affected the drone and gave your recommendation.
As a newbie even doing these steps will help me understand the drone better AND your recommendations will give me smoother quality videos.
Thanks for all that.
Just one thing on your EXPO Exponential Stick Sensitivity values your edit didn't show your final recommendations - what settings do you prefer for Up/Down, Yaw, Pitch/Roll?
Thanks for the good words!! 👍🏻
Great video Ian thanks. I just need a Mini 4 now 😂 still I enjoy your videos as I always learn some thing new. Keep them coming 👍👍
Thanks Karen. Your Mini 3 Pro is a fine bit if kit and these settings all apply to the Mini 3 Pro too 👍🏻
Thanks IanI have 👍👍
Morning Ian, this is an unrelated issue but I need your advice. Im planning on taking my mini3pro to Spain on holiday in the summer. What steps or proceedures do I need to follow? Many thanks Jon
This looks like the new yard(ie garden)? I loved your old place happy to see you have a nice newer one too for our background viewing pleasure 😂
Also you’re the only RUclipsr I’ve seen mention this behavior in the different modes, nice job.
Yep, moved to the south coast few months ago...... :) Brilliant new place...
Can the mini 4 pro do flips and manouvers?
Those are all very important settings, but still yet, not so easy to understand. I'm a professional pilot, but I know from talking to hobbyists, that it really confuses them, and I can understand why. So I wish DJI would add in "templates", which will set the drone behaviour to simply match a descriptive name; "Easy, Jumpy, Naughty, Stealth" etc.
My preferred settings for Normal:
Max speeds - leave at max
Max Angular Velocity: 35-40 ‘ /s (more for Sport; less for Cine)
Yaw Smoothness: 60
Brake Sensitivity: Set to max (highest)
Gimbal Max Control Speed - 20 ‘/s
Tilt Smoothness 25
Thank you so much! Could you post settings for cine too please?
Hi, thanks for the video. I would like to ask you DJI mic settings :) while recording I could not hear DJI drone noice. how can I do that in my DJI mic
No special setting; the drone was around 5 metres away and the mic was on my collar....
The drone does not record sound
How has the house move gone :)
Very good! Studio ready for the next video. Only the surround sound to finish unpacking 🤠👍🏻
Are you on route to Iceland?
Not this time 🤠
Boo 😂. Looks very spectacular has to be said.
So the only totally new setting is nifty?
Yep, as said at beginning, this vid is for people who have just got their Mini 4 Pro as their first drone... 👍
For someone interested in photography and never operated a drone before, I feel the "Hmmm..'🤔 moment coming on..
Like your videos but if I may, they seem overexposed a tad, too bright. But always enjoy the content.
Will be back in the studio shortly instead of hard contrast bright sky versus shadow....
Funny, because I like most of the settings exactly opposite to yours ;) Reason being I always use waypoints before I record anything, and this way to make waypoints faster
Well, main point of video is to explain what the settings do and how to amend them to your style of flying, so it's all good stuff 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
1) For a beginner, you do NOT want to set Brake/Nifty. You want obstacle avoidance, bypass. 2) The camera used to record this is set all wrong. Video is blown out and has no depth of field. Poor advice and poor camera work. C-
In your humble opinion.... Brake mode is easily the safest and easiest to control mode....
Great video
