New to drones in central Tx

[Austin-N-Austin]

Just got a Mavic Air 2 second hand today. Really got the bug to get into this when researching drones for work (we ended up with an Autel Evo 2). Definitely new to piloting these, but am very familiar with aviation in general, May decide to get my 107 at some point, but for now Im more wanting to learn flight, videography etc for my own use.

Welcome to the forum! The MA2 is a great choice, but I’m guessing you know that by now. Safe flying to you in 2021!

Hi Austin-N-Austin Welcome to Mavic Pilots.
New flyer advice,
Wide open space.
Slow & easy
Power-lines & trees are evil.
Don't expect RTH (Return To Home) to save you especially if you are under trees.
Don't forget to read the manual
Download Air 2 manual HERE
You want an SD card that is U3 for 4K
Most of all have FUN

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.
  
  
• This video covers all the basics of the Mavic Air 2.
  
  
• 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.
