Greetings, all!

Yet another new Mavic pilot here. Just got my Mavic Air 2 a few days back, and took it up for its maiden flight just yesterday. It was rather cold and windy here in Minnesota and my hands were starting to get numb just after 10 minutes, so that's how long the flight lasted. Despite the short duration, I was able to test out some of the MA2's image and video capabilities in their default settings, and being an amateur photographer, I must say the results were more than satisfying.

The MA2 isn't my first quad--I've been flying a Holy Stone HS720E for a number of months now and have gotten very familiar with its features and capabilities. But obviously it doesn't hold a candle to the MA2. Prior to that I was flying R/C for nearly four decades, but had to stop some years ago when we lost our field due to urban encroachment.

Thanks for this introduction opportunity, and I look forward to learning more about my MA2 from the veterans on this forum.

Here are some things to help you get started with your Mavic Air 2:
  • The current Mavic Air 2 manual can be downloaded here (it doesn't come in the box). Other important documents can be found on the Mavic Air 2 downloads page.

  • Check out this getting started guide for some tips not found in the Mavic Air 2 manual.

  • This video covers all the basics of the Mavic Air 2.

  • Your drone batteries will last longer if you use and maintain them like this.

  • Practice flying outdoors in a wide open location that's free of all obstacles. Don't attempt to fly inside your house or in other confined locations.

  • The drone records flight data each time you fly. You can decrypt and view those flight logs with these tools.

  • Check out MavicHelp.com for commonly used accessories you might need.
