    Great video with very helpful tips. Very well explained. Thanks for that!
  • Thanks Mattheww. Great tips as always. Cheers from Wisconsin.
  • Great Video. A few other ideas: (1). Before i leave home, I check to see if there are any firmware updates, and not get locked out due to pending updates. (2) While I am home, I preload any maps so when I get on site, my maps are loaded and (3). When I first turn on the drone on site, I check the Camera Settings. I format the SD Card, and make sure the camera, still and video, are set how I want them. Thanks for another awesome video, this is the best resource for DJI Mini 3 Pro tips. Thanks Matthew!!!

    As always Mattheww, excellent advice and brilliant video thank you - I'd love to have the time to do what you do! Your new outdoors approach is really good and the cheeky laugh at the end was funny lol thank you again Andy
  • Really helpful tips! As someone else mentioned, I also like to check for firmware updates and download maps while I'm home. I'm curious - how often/when do you recommend any of the calibrations available? Compass, IMU, gimbal? (Not sure if there are others.) I've heard it recommended to calibrate the compass before each flight for this drone (perhaps it wouldn't be needed on a larger drone so often). One more thing in the settings I'm sure I just need to read up on so I understand the application for any of the calibrations, but just curious if these are something you do often.

    Hmm! As always a lot of good tips. Info and guidd for safe drone flying esp for the M3P. I always Luv ur channel matt. Kudos. Great job
  • Thanks for the tips. I actually used your pre-flight check in my last flight and found out that one of my props was chipped. I also have had instances where I take off and then I realize that the ND filter is out of place. On the Mini 2 it is easier to get it out of place. I had to land and reposition. On another ocasion, it fell off completely and I lost the ND Filter. I always clean the camera before first flight of the day just in case with my microfiber cloth. I have gotten smudges both on the lens and the filters. The missing Micro-SD I have done as well. I actually took off and only then realized there was no card. I have spares so I just landed and put one in, but way back in the begining with the Mini, I ended up wasting a morning due to lack of a card, which I had left at home. Lastly, for taking off in sandy areas, I usually hand launch so no sand gets in the drone. I also have a launch pad for situations where I actually need to take off or land on rough areas, but mostly I hand launch and land.

    Great tips. Another tip that has saved me a trip is check the weather forecast especially if you’re traveling some distance. A decent weather radar app comes in very handy when the forecast is mostly clear but a rogue thunderstorm pops up.
