New MA2 pilot checking in from northern UT

[red_beard_1950]

I'm a small RC guy (DIY gliders, tiny whoop FPVs, custom DIY rock crawlers, etc.) and a former Part 61 pilot that wants to film his daughter's wedding in the mountains of northern Utah in September using my new MA2 with the smart controller. I'd appreciate any MA2 cinematography tips, especially for outdoor wedding venues, as well as general safety tips for flying in these rugged mountains.

Here are some things to help you get started with your Mavic Air 2:

• The current Mavic Air 2 manual can be downloaded here (it doesn't come in the box). Other important documents can be found on the Mavic Air 2 downloads page.
  
  
• Check out this getting started guide for some tips not found in the Mavic Air 2 manual.
  
  
• Your drone batteries will last longer if you use and maintain them like this.
  
  
• Practice flying outdoors in a wide open location that's free of all obstacles. Don't attempt to fly inside your house or in other confined locations.
  
  
• The drone records flight data each time you fly. You can decrypt and view those flight logs with these tools.
  
  
• Check out MavicHelp.com for commonly used accessories you might need.
