The name Serbia brings back memories of our drive from London UK to New Delhi India in Oct 1978; we drove through what was then Yoguslavia in 1978. After a full day of fun in Salzburg Austria, we drove almost non-stop to Copacabana Beach in what is now Croatia. We drove all along the coastal road to almost SE end of Yoguslavia before heading north then through what is now North Macedonia and finally into Bulgaria where we literally only spent a day in Sofia before heading to Turkey, Wish I had a drone back then.
Yes, that was time when we were all together...

Since you live in Serbia, there are specific laws and rules for you to follow, please check to ensure these are current.
You paid a lot of money for that Drone, put your phone number on it. If your drone gets lost or stuck in a tree and it finally comes down when you are not around, give the finders an opportunity to contact you so it can be returned.
Now, for the Fun Part, But do not let the excitement of the moment get the best of you. When you are going out to fly, do it slowly and deliberately. Get used to a set procedure and even practice it.
There are so many things I could write but these are the highlights that I feel need mentioning.
Plug in your phone/tablet into your controller; turn on the Controller and DJI Fly App (if it does not start on its own…). On the Drone, open the front legs, then open the back legs, and then remove the Gimbal Cover.
The Gimbal is the most delicate item on the Drone and banging or bumping can damage it. I also fastened a short "Remove Before Flight" ribbon to the cover so it's more noticeable and I do not forget to remove it…
Turn on the drone and watch it come to "life." Watching the Gimbal go through its self-check is almost like watching a puppy or kitten opening its eyes for the first time…
Place the drone down (preferably on a Landing Pad) while it finishes its self-test (collecting satellites, etc…).
Check your battery status (Phone, Drone, and Controller), check the Signal Strength, by now the Controller should have reported it updated the Home Point.
Lift off, 6 feet (2-meters) or so, hover a bit, check the controls (move the drone a bit forward, back, left, right, yaw left and right). By now, your Controller will probably report again, "Home point Updated."
If you go out in a rush and race thru your start up and take off before the drone has finished it prep, it may update its Home Point over that pond or that old tree you are flying over and in your excitement, you'll fly the drone long past it Low Battery point and when it engages Return to Home and lands in the pond or in a tree; it will be all on you…
Now go have fun, learn to fly the drone by sight before you try to fly it out a distance depending on the video feed, FPV.
I would also advise you to use YouTube and watch a lot of the Videos on flying and setting up the Drone. When it is too dark, too cold, or too wet, you can "fly it vicariously" through YouTube. Also watch some of the Blooper Drone Videos and learn how not to fly your "New Baby."
Fly On and Fly Safe…

I am a new certified pilot, but I am aware that I have to learn a lot, and I am considered myself as a beginner.
Thanks to all for yours welcoming.

HI guys . New to the group with a mini se . I wanted to see if these were easier to fly than the big old ones I had 10 years ago . Got it 2 weeks before Christmas. Easy to fly. But now the new year . So quick question, how to make the ID sticker to put on the done . w.oody
Hello from the Crossroads of America w.oody.
Nice to meet you.
You can use a permanent marker like a Sharpie to mark it.
A label maker works well.
Or get free stickers that look professional to make the drone shine.

Good luck and welcome to the Forum.
