I plan on getting a Mavic Mini next week for me and my son. Just joined this forum to try to learn as much as I can before I get it in the air.

Welcome to the forum there's many smart people on here to ask questions to if you can't find it in a thread hit the search bar top right and learn from other people's mistakes with a drone of that caliber and there's also YouTube. Com other than that fly safe and enjoy

Welcome to the forum from the deserts of Arizona! Enjoy.
Here’s some recommended reading from DJI. The full online only 60 page manual for the MM. Much more complete than the short one in the box.... other useful stuff too.

You'll luv flying.
Two things I learned as the start:
1. Take the gimbal plastic lock off first so you won't forget.

2. If the wind is blowing the trees (it's stronger higher up) don't fly, and if there's any uncertainty about a soft breeze at ground level keep a low altitude.

Download UAV Forcast on your phone. It will give you the winds at that location in real time from ground to 5000 feet. It will be very helpful to keep you out of trouble from wind. I loved flying with my kids in Chattanooga for Thanksgiving. They took to it much faster than I did. Have fun.
