  1. Hey Bond, we need more flying time for the Mavic Air.
    We need Master Airscrew rather than extra batteries. Two minutes is quite a long time in the sky!

    The first generation is quiet and Second Generation has increased flight time.
    We need Second Generation…
    M gave you an order. Quickly upload your test flight to YouTube!

  2. Great seeing you again! I haven't had any signal problems w/my Mavic Air, though have still not used extensively. Not being able to use in our Nat'l Parks here a bummer! Looking forward to more of your aerial videos there in Finland.

  3. You are right about to do some research before you fly your drone in another country. Here in the USA if you have a done that weighs between .5 to 55 pounds you have to licence it with the FAA. and like most other countries know where you can and can not fly your drone. Some other countries may also require you to register your drone that is best to research before flying. Some South American countries do not allow any drones. Your drone could be confiscated on arrival. Just do your home work first.

  4. Hi Young. Glad see you to enjoying our beautiful capital town ? About month ago need to decide between Air and Zoom. Tested both and take Zoom. More reliable than Air. Even here in Finland. Air was also very good but for OcuSync 2 Zoom wins this competition. Spend a nice days in Finland ?

  5. I enjoyed the video. Noise is also an issue when flying around people. The Mavic 2 Pro and Zoom are quieter than most drones. I try to wait until there are no or few people around and take off to at least 150’ (45 meters). At that altitude my Mavic 2 Pro is not noticeable unless you know it is there. I then try to land with no people or a few a distance away to safely land. That means coming back with plenty of battery so you can hover and wait for the opportune time to land.

  6. I've wanted a drone for quite some time but our increasingly ridiculous laws here in Canada make flying one a risk. Excellent video as always!

  7. I have a Mavic Air (Black + 4 batteries) I'm from England, living in China over 11 years, too many people say "You can't fly here" even though there's nothing around, so I go to faraway places in my car and have fun there, I enjoy your video, hope to see more. (Great smile BTW). I'm practising making Videos using an Ipad mini 4… Happy flying…

  8. Yes it is 🙂 i have not buy yet because i have to first buy small dsrl (big is good, like i have 5d m2 and m3, but only in studio and maybe in commercial work) but on vacation trip … trust me 😀 is not worth it to take so many kilograms to have a bit better image. Only bad thing is 12 mpx from 1/2.3 inch sensor. It's really small so it has to be like that 🙂

  9. Hello Young, you have 100 % right ?? i have the phantom 4 pro and the Mavic Air. Both is a perfect combination ? now i am in Ireland and try to make a short travel video ? but the weather is really bad ? best regards from a small ? german film maker

  10. Hey Young, you should sign up for the Amazon Influencer programme and get a storefront that contains all your recommended products, rather than having individual text links. Try it out and let me know since I'm sure you are now big enough to be a credible influencer.

  11. I use the Mavic air for my travel content. Great footage, the signal limitations have been annoying but not on most flights and not enough to pay the difference for something with ocusync

  12. I haven't thought of good use for drones with my pepper videos yet, but I still think they are awesome. Thanks for sharing this, and for amazing video you captured.

  13. What about drone rules in foreign places… ?isn’t it scary or will it just ruin your holidays if your drone got confiscated on a holiday?

  14. Great overview of the Mavic Air! You may want to share this on AirVuz.com as well. AirVūz is a site just like Youtube but is dedicated to drone enthusiasts, like yourself, from around the world. I really think they would enjoy your videos over on there too!

  15. It can be quote frustrating to get the shots you want with the paranoia in the United States. So many places have become restricted for no reason.
