The first flight of the new DJI Mavic mini drone that I picked up to increase the photographic and video capabilities for reviews. So many new possibilities. Be sure to subscribe to my channel.

Great stuff Tactical-Reviews (it also looks like you stole my sweat pants
, I have a pair just like them). My Nephew is a Commercially License drone operator. He's very good at it and some of his videos have been used in TV shows (The Blindspot being one), and he deals with an agent that comes to him from time to time looking for specific shots. He's also done work for Real estate agents as well.Was that the first time you flew a drone? You seemed to do well at it. I'd like to get one if I ever bought a large tract of land to set up a shooting range, for 1) to map out the property and 2), use it when shooting at long range targets, to see if I hit it. I guess I could always use the Nephew to do this and save the $$ spent on a drone to get more guns.

That was the first time I flew that drone. I had one a few years ago I picked up used, but I was never able to really fly it, it kept crashing. I ended up trading it for a .22lr handgun.
I wear a lot of lounge pants because I don't leave the house a lot, and because it's easy to put them on with my messed up joints.

I flew 1 one time and it never came back, honestly! Darn Skynet all over again! It was Annihilator's fault!

Yup, that's my standard lounge ware while in the house. While I'm not disabled (although I have a pretty severe case of Peripheral neuropathy, I'm a diabetic), I do spend a lot of time inside especially during the winter months.
As far as drone flying, I'm afraid I would buy an expensive drone and it would wobble and crash all over the place. It's encouraging to see you do so well first time out after several years. Perhaps the more expensive ones have more stability that would help a first time flyer like me. I'll have to check into it.

Same here Tenbones. I guess in my case, I could always ask my Nephew for advice.

My advice, don't buy a used one, I did that thinking I'm going to save money. I didn't. The older ones need a much better pitot than me. This one is perfect for beginners. Auto take-off, auto landing, auto return to home.

I may have just weaponized it, just saying.

Have a couple of the Syma Quads. Shoots decent video and not too bad to fly. Then too, I am a licensed
pilot and understand all that up and down stuff.
Been looking at a Yuneec Typhoon H for quite a while. Retract landing gear allows the gimbal 4K camera
to do a 360 swing. I also love the built in monitor. Don't have to use a cell phone.
Trying to justify it vs some new shooters.
You should have a ball with the Mini Mav.

Now I want one like that. Love the sign too.
