I like the speed of your explanations. Very clear. Language very understandable. You’re a good tutor.
-
Hello to all new pilots who got a Mini 2 for Christmas and are now watching this video! Good times ahead for you guys!
-
Looking forward to getting my Mini 2 next week, so I've been consuming YouTube tutorials voraciously. In my opinion, yours is the best tutorial I've seen. As a teacher of photography and Photoshop, I can tell you that your pace and information were both excellent. Teaching is actually a skill which can be taught or innate and you've got it. Thank you so much!
-
Ed, you're to be commended. This pair of videos wins the equivalent of Oscar for actually covering the goals in a way that isn't intimidating & doesn't assume knowledge on the viewer that isn't there (yet). Mini 2 is inbound along with a dedicated refurb Pixel 4 XLT, so I'll be reviewing again. Great production and thanks again for taking the time.
-
A VERY good tutorial for beginner pilots.Explains everything in detail.Well done Ed!
-
I’ve watched both tutorials and I must say they’ve both been put together very well. I’ve been looking to buy my first drone and you’ve given me the confidence to do it. Thanks.
-
Good to see you again. 3+ years on since I first started watching your tutorials. Lots of air miles since then!! All the best
-
I have watched several videos on startup to first flight. I personally think yours is one of the best I have seen. Thank you for producing this excellent start up video. Took my first flight today and used many of your lessons and found them invaluable. Mahalo

Thus guy gives THE BEST TUTORIAL in to how to setup the drone. If one is not able to go fly with the DJI drones after watching these vlogs he or she should concider not to fly at all. So big THANKS to Ed Ricker! 👌🏻👍🏻
-
Thanks! I'm already flying my Mini 2 weeks ago but I'm still learning a lot from your tutorial! Happy Holidays!
-
Great videos, Ed. I just bought a Mini 2 and this is a perfect demonstration of starting out-of-the-box to basic flying. I flew the Phantom 4 as part of my old job, but it's been a few years since I last flew. I got the Mini 2 because I wanted to get back into flying. Thanks for the videos!
-
Excellent Tutorial, not only are you a pilot but an instructor & teacher. I’m a beginner and now you’ve given me confidence to fly without fear. Thank you for your time & expertise.
-
EXCELLENT INSTRUCTION! If I had found you before the other guy I watched, I probably would not be waiting for my drone to ship back to me from repair facility. Thanks for getting back into making videos!
-
Been thinking about getting my first drone and came across your channel as it was the DJI MINI 2 I was thinking about. Thank you my man for a superb tutorial. You made everything so simple to understand with your demos. Amazing work and I will be buying this drone, Thanks
-
Thank you - you made this detailed video 2 years ago.... yet its still helping the beginners... so massive thanks to you.
-
I have just bought my first drone at 70 years old. DJI 4K After watching your video it gave me the confidence to fly it gently. I was so nervous. So thank you sir, your explanations were spot on.
-
I don't think I'll ever get tired of my Mini 2! Not when there's always something new to try with it!
-
Thanks for an excellent video Ed. Parts 1 and 2 both so informative. Just ordered a mini 2 and after watching feel so much more confident getting to grips with my first drone. Sure I will be revisiting regularly for a while. Look forward to more content.
-
Your video is the best I've ever seen. You're the first person that's ever concisely explained why you simply have the rear of your drone facing you to put yourself pretty much in the pilots seat. Very simple, yet important.
