I just bought my first drone a few days ago and wow I don’t know why I waited so long to get one. It’s the Mavic Air 2 w/ fly more combo. I haven’t used it much as I’m trying not to crash it.

Welcome to the forum. Good combo, I also fly the MA2 and have plenty of fun with it. We look forward to your participation and your view of the world.
@LandKruiser welcome to the forum ,i appreciate that not using it much ,may seem a good idea ,and yes it cant crash unless its in the air,the biggest problem with that approach ,is that the more you practice then the better and better you get at flying it ,just find a quiet open spot away from drone enemy no1 Trees ,and practice flying slow and low till you are confident with the controls, get to understand the various RTH scenarios and what they mean ,forget about becoming a well known video producer ,and concentrate on mastering the flying first ,because when you have it down pat, then you will be much better able to get those wonderful pics and vids ,and keep your drone in one piece
Welcome to the forum from the deserts of Arizona! Enjoy.

Welcome to the forum! 
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.
