Welcome to the forum!

Just got a new Mavic 2

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

• The current Mavic 2 manual and other important documents can be found on the Mavic 2 downloads page.
  
  
• Check out this getting started guide for some tips not found in the Mavic 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.

Hi ORDrone 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

Most of all have FUN

Thanks to all for the friendly welcome, I will certainly heed your advice and take advantage of all the links you provided. I'm really looking forward to this new hobby and appreciate being forewarned as to any pitfalls.

I actually bought 3 of the Mavic Air 2 Drones, one for me and 2 as Christmas gifts to my sons.

Welcome to our Forum, from Hauptmann in Texas USA!

You'll find that flying your Mavic 2 Pro or any DJI quad is so easy. They practically fly themselves. This can lead to overconfidence.

Read the manual, and be conservative at first. Practice using “Find My Drone”. Chances are you will crash and perhaps lose your bird. Don't wait until that happens to learn how to recover a lost drone. Lots of good stuff to shoot throughout Oregon. Whenever you need help, there are over 120,000 of us from around the world to assist you as you gain experience and grow as a pilot and photographer.

Glad to have you as a member!
