Hello fellas, fresh face here from Garland TX, a little town about 10 miles east of Dallas. I just took delivery of a Mini 2 Fly More Combo today. I really want to put some time into learning this rig before I even power it up. I've never flown a drone but have flown RC planes. Any recommendations for YT vids to get me started? I searched Youtube here and didn't come up with much and I did see the tutorials page but I'm looking for more.

Also, are there any members from the DFW area here?

Just type in Mini 2 tutorial in the youtube search bar, read the main manual though, thats the 1st thing to do, there is so much you will learn from that alone, from battery usage/storage/charging, to RTH and much more, read the notes at the bottom of the sections too

Hi there. Thank you for reaching out. Hope that you could get the best recommendation that you need from our fellow DJI Pilots here in Forum. You may also want to check the link below for the official tutorial videos for your very own DJI Mavic Mini 2. Please don't hesitate to reach us if you have other inquiries. Thank you for your valued support.

Also, another great Mini 2 tutorial.  Jeven provides a ton of useful information in that video.

Yes,   Jeven is great,  but my auto correct always wants to change his name

Welcome!  I live near DFW and have been flying since April.  A few of my favorite DJI Mini 2 YouTubers are:  Windswept Robert, Ian in London, FlytPath, Jeven Dovey, and I also follow 51 Drones, Darren McHardy, Tech Drone Media, UAV Coach and Pilot Institute, to name a few.  I also reccomend Mavicpilots.com and Grey Arrows Drone Club UK:  https://greyarro.ws/

Have fun and ask questions!

It's very informative, just what the OP needed I think.

Welcome to the world of flying.
Take it slow and safe.
There is a lot to like about this hobby, but it is also a risky one.

Some of the words that auto correct changes are really amusing.

Fast and low, fast and low.  

Just kidding and especially not for a newbie.

Indeed,  sometimes I wonder if I should reset the keyboard and loose all the words its already learned and start again.

I did exactly that once before, but alas it has already learned new tricks to fool me with.

I wont bother then.   

MetroCat, DO NOT skim over the manual, read and re-read, it pays off!  If you have a very large area where you can fly without distractions,
go there, reference the manual, and try different things, see how it flies.   Some folks get it right the first time, I need repeating, over and over.
With your past experiences with other craft, you'll get it quickly.  Stay safe, fly safe.
