this is ultimate beginner's guide for
EDI Mavic music hey guys I recently got
the DJI Matic Pro I looked around on
YouTube and I couldn't really find a
comprehensive guide on what you need to
know right before you fly so in this
video I'm going to show you guys what
you need to know so you can get this guy
up in the air right away right when you
get it these are the things I really
wish someone told me when I first got
the drone alright let's get started
first thing I didn't know when I got
this is how to power the DJI Matic drone
in order to power on you're going to
need to press the power button here but
before you do that you're always going
to want to power your remote on first
and the way the powers on see what I did
was if you just hit the power button it
just shows you that battery percentage
it doesn't actually powered on trick
here is you have to press it once
quickly and a second time right after
that and hold it down there you go and
it turns on so same thing with a DJI and
advocate Pro all you have to do is press
once and the second time really quickly
and it powers on
[Music]
there you go
the DJI magnet pro doesn't come fully
charged so remember to charge your
batteries before you fly on the remote
as well as the drone the next thing you
need to know is how to connect your
phone when you want to connect your
phone you're basically going to have a
cable that runs from the left of the
remote all the way down to the left
handle and initially it comes with the
lightning connector for your iPhone but
then it comes with a second adapter here
for an Android phone you can also use
the bottom USB as a way to connect your
phone now one little tip it doesn't
really match up correctly with your
phone so what you can do is you can top
off this little piece right here you can
move it to the right end of the
controller so now the cable is free to
move around and it just attaches just
like this and there you go attach just
like this mind you it doesn't need to be
fully straight all the time you can have
it a little bit wonky on the holder no
problem still flies animation so I'm
assuming that a lot of you got this
drone and to get some great footage one
thing is that the drone comes with a 16
gigabyte SD card but when you're flying
around a lot that's not going to be
enough what I've done is I've upgraded
it to a 64 gigabyte SD card I'll leave a
link in the below so you guys can check
it out later when you first get the
drone you're going to need to update the
firmware on the drone now you don't want
to take this thing out and then realize
that you have to update the firmware
what I recommend is to turn it on at
home with a Wi-Fi connection and
download the latest firmware and upload
it to your drone so that you can go
flying right away when you take it
outside it's really easy it's just like
this hit update
download and install easy as pie the
drone will probably ask you to calibrate
the compass which will force you to
rotate it just like this and also like
this you're also going to have calibrate
the front sensors on the
so I had to do this when I first got it
for like 10 minutes and nothing was
working I had to keep on recalibrating
because it wasn't recognizing the
sensors and I was doing this motion for
10 minutes so it could recognize the
front sensor and the reason why I had to
keep on doing it repeatedly was because
there was a sticker covering the front
sensor so the fencers couldn't leave the
ground properly take off the sticker
before you start calibrating the front
sensors so you're going to have to
attach the propellers when you first get
the drone DJI Mavic Pro has two sets of
propellers one for the left and one for
the right how do you tell which is where
the left and the right you're going to
see on the center of a propeller a
little white circle that will match to
the propeller motor a little white
circle find those two white circles or
the lack thereof and you'll be able to
attach the propellers no problem just
push into it there you go
when you first line the drone you want
to set it at RC mode which means remote
control mode not Wi-Fi mode it should
already be set to RC mode but better
check this before you fly on the remote
control on the right hand side of the
controller here you're going to want to
make sure that it's set to positioning
mode if you press it up it'll switch it
to sport mode you want to have it on
positioning mode so that enables all the
film shooting modes you put it in sport
mode it'll go a lot faster and it'll
turn off some of the obstacle
fencing features for starters I
recommend leaving it in positioning
though there's a lot of steps we're
halfway there so bear with me when you
first get the drone you're going to get
a lens hood cover one a little black
piece that comes off as well as a lens
note when you fly you're going to want
to take this off because you will get
tumbling kind of like this I didn't know
this that's why I had this problem so
what you're going to want to do is just
take it off and pletely and fly without
it don't worry
it's mental now if you want to get a
little more extra protection then you
can get a lens hood which I'll leave a
link in the description
below the gimbal itself also has a
little protective clip to keep it in
place during storage you're going to
want to take this off before you turn on
the mattock because when you turn it on
the gimbal will automatically calibrate
itself if you leave it on you'll get
this error message so remember to take
it off after you're done flying reattach
the gimbal flip
I have trouble sometimes putting it on
and the reason why I've had trouble is
because I always use one hand kind of
doesn't fit on and you have a lot of
trouble he is to use two of your hands
one on the lens clip and two on the
gimbal make sure you don't touch the
lens and just slide it into place just
like that see that's a lot easier now
when you first get this drone it's going
to be in beginner mode which is fine
because it limits the speed and your
distance where you can fly also it
doesn't allow you for all the filming
mode but this is good practice with this
mode and you feel comfortable with the
controls then you can turn it off just
like this
just hit this X button like that and you
got full access to all the controls now
we're going to fly so when taking off
you're going to wait for GPS mode to
turn on it we usually start some atti
mode and the reason for this is that
it's a visioning system you want the GPS
to sink properly before flying it so you
can return to home in case there's any
issues when flying the drone
please check it takes a few seconds
maybe a minute better safe than sorry I
suggest to wait now the fun part begin
let's take off now taking off is very
simple there's a software built-in way
and there's a way where you can just use
the joystick you know when I first
started I would just hit the take off
buttons like this and then swipe for it
to take off the screen take off is very
nice when you have class-m but sometimes
you don't have background and you're
going to have to release the drone with
your hand and the easiest way to do this
is to move the two controllers down and
out which will activate the signal that
is ready to take off and then just press
up on the left control stick like this
the landing is very similar you've taken
off from flat grounds and you can use
your software landing where you just hit
this one the land and then you swipe
edit land
[Music]
now sometimes landed in so smooth and
you're going to have to catch it with
your hand and easiest way to do this is
put your hand underneath the drone and
slowly press the left controllers down
until against your hand grab it like
this and it'll fight you for a second
then continue to pull down the left
controller and the motors will
eventually stop so easy 16 return to
home if you want to have returned to
home to the exact same location you took
off you're going to have to use this
method you don't want to take off and
then just move forward or backwards or
somewhere you're going to want to go 10
meters prop so that's accenting cameras
and the GPS can locate your exact
position and record the return to home
if you don't fly up 10 meters and you
just fly off it's not going to be that
accurate now let's get to the camera
what I didn't know early on is that you
can actually scroll the camera up and
down and the way to do this where your
index finger is there's a little
scroller here and you can use this to
scroll the camera didn't know that when
I first when I first bought the drone I
just bought the basic pack and it came
with one battery I quickly found out one
battery wasn't enough you're actually
going to want to have at least two and
for me a maximum of three some people
find four batteries but usually I only
use to edit scenes
the third one is a little bit extra I
think it's enough at least in my
experience so save yourself an extra
battery and if you need it at one point
then maybe in the future buy it but I
say stick with three batteries initially
now that you have your three batteries
you kind of want to make sure that these
batteries are labeled what I do is I've
added a little label right here so that
I know how to recycle the batteries and
make sure that I'm using all of the
batteries equally as opposed to using
the same one all of the time and the
last thing you want to save yourself a
little bit of money you don't need to
buy the DJI carrying case what I've done
personally is I just used my camera bag
has a way to carry around the drone if
it's purposely seek the drone goes in
this compartment I put two hobb down
here as well as the three batteries I
have the charger in this compartment and
I put all the propellers in
and there you go my DGI carrying case
something that I already had I didn't
have to pay extra for and I'm ready to
fly well that concludes the video and I
really hope you like it these are the
things like I said earlier that I wish I
knew when I first got the drone and I
