Great move. I am new to drones as well and did the same thing, Original Mavic Pro, very pleased with it. Hope you have a lot of good times with yours.

And, yes, during the winter you can fly from inside your car. It works very well.

good luck and enjoy

BTW...If you don't have a really strong computer processor, I recommend recording at 1080p, or 2.7K

For editing software, I highly recommend the unbelievably powerful and FREE Davinci Resolve 15. You can download a copy from Black Magic Design

Black Magic Design has just released a series of tutorials on using Davinci Resolve 15. They have their own YT channel. Here is a tutorial on color grading, which BTW will drive you crazy. Always keep in mind that color grading is an art, and you'll like what you like, and your tastes will change.

Here is a link to their FREE version. I can't imagine you will need the $299 version as the free version will take a lifetime to master.

Hello everyone. I got a mavic pro platinum for Christmas and love it. I'm a bit worried about loosing it or crashing it so slow and steady is my approach.

Congrats! Just remember, if you forget what you're doing, just let go of the sticks, she'll hover there for you to get yourself situated.
Fly safe.
