10 BIGGEST Drone MISTAKES New Pilots Make | DJI AIR 3 Tips For Beginners

Great tips as a beginner I did not perform my pre flight checks on Dji spark and after take off 30ft my battery fell off the drone and came crashing down broke camera gimbal

I use to use my Phantom 4 on the river in a boat . Just maKe sure you control by eyesight!

Another mistake
Hovering with zero satellite indoors. My air 3 immediately flew to the left and crashed.

👍

Will dji air 3 return to home automatic while battery Low?

My most expert and advanced way of flying my drone is when I try to fly the drone through a window from unavailable GPS signal because the area was surrounded by buildings and covered by narrow roof and I'm not be able to see the sky haha. It was a complete nightmare and I made a safe return without fail.

Using a landing pad helps marking the home. The air 3 detects it some how displaying a drone figure on it as it lands.

thhe automatic rth is a life saver because i almost lost my mini 4 pro because it lost signal with the controler and i was panicking abt my lost drone

Great info, thanks!

Whole video was worth the watch just to hear "situations" in the northern accent 😆 Great tips and advice too though obviously - keep em coming!

Love watching things i cant afford 😂

Thank you!

So what about the sensors that are mounted on drone? Will it not work if the drone doesn't see it?

The sensors do not work when we use it in the dark or insufficient light. The bottom light must be on in this case.

Great tips mat

Avoid landing on a helicopter.

Very good information 👌

Which one would better for charging air-3 .Dji 100W or 60 W? Sir

Very helpful! Thank you.

Thank you for the video! Would I be able to take my drone and batteries with me on a plane? I know TSA is strict on L-ion batteries?

Zmieniłem niedawno dji mini 3 na dji mini 4 pro rc2 ,ale dji mini 3 i mini 4 pro to jakby podobna konstrukcja mocowania śmigieł.
Natomiast kupiłem też Dji AIR 3 i jeszcze nim nie latałem ,a zastanawiam się czy to mocowanie śmigieł jest lepsze niż na śrubki jak w mini.
O ile te śmigła montuje się w odpowiedni sposób i jest zasada ich montowania ,to mimo to ciekaw jestem czy to nie jest błąd konstrukcyjny i te śmigła potrafią się wyczepić.
Chyba ,że użytkownik z tego filmu w niewłaściwy co do kierunku obracania się silnika ,założył śmigło.
Moje przemyślenia dotyczą też tych sprężynek .Być może warto je również co jakiś czas ze śmigłami wymienić .

kudos to pple who watch this video before crashing and ruining their new and expensive drone lol. good quality videos!

Such a wonderful video 🙌 so informative

Great tips! Thank you!

But can you trust the optimal RTH ? or should you play it safe

Question. About not moving the drone with the 3x camera. Doesn’t the drone have collision sensors? Like isn’t that the whole point of obstacle avoidance? I have the Air 3 but haven’t flown it yet. Waiting for my temporary part 107 permit to download 😊

Which do you think is better drone to buy, the dji mini pro 4 or dji air 3 ?

Excellent tips!

The point about driving with the zoom camera is a bit strange to me. While I don’t have the air 3 myself, I was told it has all around sensors for obstacle avoidance so wouldn’t those kick in automatically unless deactivated?

Ive luckily not made too many mistakes, so far. Biggest one was probably at the very first flight....
I forgot to screw on the joysticks because i was so nervous LOL. Luckily it was pretty easy to use the joystick "balls" with the thumb pressed into the hole to land anyway.
Other than that its just been two occasions of forgetting to remove gimbal cover.

My biggest mistake: I flew out over a lake before the homepoint was set. I wasn't logged in and the controller wasn't connected to the internet. When logged out the range is limited to 50 meters. And since the controller was offline I wasn't allowed to change the homepoint, nor could I login. So ensure that you're logged in and the homepoint is set before taking off!

What surprised me the most was that there was no visible warning about the range limitation.

The way you keep saying "them" instead of "the" or "those" is quite adorable.

good

A very helpful and informative video 👍🏻
Thanks for making this content ‼️

Refreshingly helpful. Well done.

I’m planning to buy a drone. This video was so helpful that you deserved my subscription. Thank you 🙏

Obstacle avoidance... I find that's it's very good, but it can easily miss small limbs or wires. I've had to replace two props due to strikes on small limbs. I now fly with prop guards.

I recently under estimated the battery power required to return to home and the drone self landed far away. Big lesson learnt. In future I'll be using 33% battery for flight, 33% for home and 33% reserve. The wind was against me on the way home, which I was conscious of, but I didn't realise it would eat the battery as much as it did. 😮
Thanks for all these great videos.

Very useful and practical tips❤

nice job- thank you!

Stupid mistake I made is there alot of satellites here but I was walking inside and came out and started flying when the drone did not yet pick up the satellites so I started and it was in altti mode I crashed luckily just after take off 10m away in sand

i just switch to air 3 trust me this is best review so far it's really helpful ❣️

I wonder: Wouldn't it make sense to fly with 24mm on screen, but still being able to shoot 70mm just with one direct click? Dji could overlay the smaller 70mm rectangle in the screen center.

thank you - I'm just getting my brain around drone flying, and find this type of video both very interesting and very informative. You now have one more subscriber - big deal, I know, but there you go!. 😅Thanks again, Roger

unfortunately the air3s doesn't support H.264 in 4K which is a major omission

New sub. Glad I found your channel!
