How to Hand Launch and Land your DJI Mavic Mini

Love your instructional videos! keep them coming!

another thing for some reason when i was landing mine once even tho autoland was engaged i let go of the stick too early and the drone flew up again. Make sure to keep holding down the stick until the motors are off

Thank you

This is the most helpful video I’ve had with this particular topic thank you for being direct to the point. The information you provide very easy to understand.

While taking off my drone starts flying back and crushes on its back. Please anyone tell me why this prblm occurs.

Thank you for this video! Today it was so windy and I was trying to land on a platform on top of the water. Imagine the stress when I finally caught the drone… the motors were fighting against me :/ now, that will never happen again. Thanks! Uhul 🎉

Cool! Very helpful! Thanx!

the landing function is pretty awkward, because instead of letting you go slowly down to the pad it descends at it’s own constant rate. Hand landing would’ve been super easy if you could deactivate sensors and pick it up but the way it is, you have to carefully catch it quickly and there is a chance you could miss or touch the blades.

i like flying while sitting in my car especially when its hot outside, i used to set the drone on the roof via the sunroof. ive really been wanting to hand launch from the window

Do be careful if you're trying the emergency grab- the 6th or 7th time I tried it I ended up bleeding all over the place, after missing slightly and catching one of the blades.

Super cool !
Thanks for sharing !

Awesome video!

Does the grab and turn work on Mini SE as well? Thanks!

I've been doing hand landing for a while now and turning it upside down, didn't even think about the stress I may be putting on it turning it off each time that way.

Practice first attempts over nice soft grass not cement sidewalks or paved parking lots!

Very helpful video! thanks a lot!

Great explanation! Thanks

can you not just put in sports
mode to turn sensors off?

thanks. this works for the mini SE too.

Shoulda watched this before slicing my thumb... thanks for the great content!

this guy is fantastic hahaha

this video is stupid. you cant do that with the controller that comes in with dji mini 2, its massive

One thing I have to suggest. Wear some eye protection...even just a pair of sunglasses would be better then nothing.

thank u very much.u helped me a lot.. I always landed in ground. Thats why my new drone motor got sand and jammed.then i send it again drone service centre. They said dont land in ground. Land on ur hand. U solved my probleb sir

Thanks for the tips. I recently landed my Mini 2 onto the back deck of a tugboat that I work on, while it was moving at 8kn. It was a challenge for sure. Next time, I'll try to implement what you showed here.

i cut my hands several times after cathing this tiny drone.. no big deal, but your tips really help a lot
Thanks man

Maybe in the future there could be a beacon you could have on your hand or a glove that could initiate a landing.

Thanks for the video! Gotta try it soon! 😅😅😅

I tried the whole hand launching and catching a couple of times and was quickly over it and just use the landing pad I purchased

Nice video. Like 👍 and subscribed.

I speak from experience after accidentally getting my finger into the prop of a Dji tello. DONT HAND LAND. If you absolutely have to for some reason do not try grabbing with your fingers use your hand held flat and hold the left stick down. I was shocked at how much it hurt and it didn’t even break the skin. It stung like hell for a hood 3 or 4 minutes 😳

Thank you.

When I saw the first advertisement for the mini I was blown away by the hand launch. I thought it was so FUTURE!!! To this day, I'm still a fan of the hand launch!!!!

Go future!!!

excellent

I now belong to a drone club. There’s a gentleman in the club who set up his drone so that when it’s moving forward and he lets go of the joystick the drone keeps moving in that direction. He can impress the button on the controller to make the drone stop. He is not telling anybody how he did this. Do you know anything about this feature and I wonder is it available for the Mavic mini one

Great video

Man, I just bought my firt drone, Mavic mini, and I was able to learn so much from your, you got yourself a new subscriber and I will recommend you to my friends as well, cheers from Serbia! ☺️👏👏👏👏

Very informative....... More power to you Bro!!!!!!!

Great info Aldrin. What do you think of using emergency stop from high enough to just catch these things? I suppose it would have to be a one handed catch in this situation though 🤔

I have been doing it too as a result of his instructions! Works great!

Another very clear and good demo for beginners. Thank you.

Thank you for all your helpful information

Awesome tutorial. Thank you so much!

Whats the RUSH? SLOW DOWN!

All the people that are surprised their drone flies away from their hand need to read the manual twice asap.
Please, don't fly a drone before you learn how it works.

Haha. Got mine yesterday and today I launched it inside as it has been raining for a few days.. and of course forgot to screw on the joysticks. So.. I tried grabbing it, and then it flew away (upwards) so I panicked thinking it would go into the roof.. so I just grabbed it quick. With the guards on. Still sliced up my finger pretty bad 🤣

Great tutorial,just brought some of your gear!

Excellent video as always. Thank you sir.

I never did it till the day i found myself flying in a desert and forgot the landing pad at home, i have to figure it out, at least nothing wrong happened. But im here for the hand take-off. Thank you for the tips.

i love flip, now im prepare to take shotss in the beach
