I’ve never flown a drone and my Mavic Mini should be here in a week. I'm looking for a few tips or do’s and don’ts. What are your top three tips for a virgin pilot using the Mini?
Read and understand the full 60 page manual... It won’t come in the box... only online with other stuff you should read/download... scroll down on the linked page.
Also, fly in beginner mode until the controls are second nature.
@antnee13 ... info source, but beware of all the illegal flights and use them to learn what not to do.Watch the mountain of MM YouTube videos out there. Should help to aquaint yourself with the various aspects so they'll be familiar when the done arrives.

Loving all this info as im new as well! What is the simulator and how does it work?Besides reading the manual and not flying indoors, I would recommend you to play a few hour in DJI Flight Simulator once you get the controller. Partly to correct your muscle memory but also to learn about yourself when things go wrong. What are your basic instinct when you're about to fly into a pole or a tree? In my case, video games have taught me to steer the left stick in the opposite direction. The issue with DJI is that the drone will just go up or down when doing that but continue its path. So I'm still struggling to relearn this response.
