I've been itching to pull the trigger and buy a MAVIC and finally did yesterday. I can't wait for it to get here on Dec. 28th. So excited!!
Hi...If you haven't already watched a thousand Youtube videos, you may find these helpful
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.
