Greetings from UK! *MicroSD reminder idea*

[CatWhisperer]

Hi all, I am new to the world of drones, and recently I made the silly mistake of forgetting to check if there was a microSD inserted in my Mavic Mini. I came up with this.... a self-adhesive Dymo label stuck to the card, so when I take the Mini for a play, I can see not only has there been a card inserted, but also the capacity. Apologies if this has already been covered! ?

No, actually it is quite flexible, you just fold it down and press the back of the SD card and it clicks out OK no problem.

That looks like an excellent idea.

Welcome to our forum, Cat Whisperer, from Hauptmann in Texas, USA.

A great idea! You'll find that the Mini almost flies itself. This can lead to overconfidence. Try to be conservative at first, and expand your horizons gradually. The Mini, at only 249 grams, doesn't handle wind as well as the heavier drones do. On windy days it's best to fly the Mini so that you have a tail wind on the way back.

Read your manual (link below), and practice using "Find My Drone". Chances are you'll crash and perhaps lose your drone. Don't wait 'til that happens to try to learn under stress in less than ideal conditions.
