Beginner basic instructions for operation

[EkartPa]

Where can I find simple basic instructions for operation? The instructions included with the drone are horribly inadequate and most of the you tube videos skip some important stuff. I need step by step instruction to be sure I don't screw anything up.

Go on DJI website and under support you can download the manual. it's about 60 some odd pages

As said many times before. You need to read and understand the manual before flying. That’s the basic bit. You then need to understand how what you’ve learned from the manual applies to how you want to fly. Even setting up for take off needs thought, let alone ALL the options for RTH.

Here's a comprehensive guide to the DJI Go 4 app.
DJI GO 4 Manual: The Pilot's Handbook - Page 8 of 10 - DJI Guides

This is an old but still relevant guide to DJI drone operation practice.

And as noted above, download the full Mavic User Manual.
