It’s super effective to water land it while doing Stand up Paddle

For me I fly the Mavic 2 Pro with water landing gear whenever I am flying over any kind of water. I don’t care to land or take off the water but if your drone for any reason crashes into the water it will sink to the bottom of the lake, ocean etc. If the drone has water landing gear on it, then it makes it much easier to recover the drone.

Yes I must admit ending up in the drink is my concern, especially as I live on a barge and am more than a little concerned about it ending up in the water, very tricky catching a drone when trying to steer 25 tones of boat when you know if you take your hands of the tiller it all goes tits up very quickly 😂

I think the water floats are more used as a safeguard device when flying over water in case of an unplanned landing

Hi Mathew, I would say one really good benefit of using the Drone Floats is if you have a DJI Care Refresh coverage and you have a mishap in water, the replacement fee for a "flyaway" (unrecoverable) incident versus a recoverable damaged drone (where you can send it back to DJI) is (in the USA) $235 vs. $65. I learned this the hard way a few weeks ago when I attempted to take off from a (very slowly) moving sailboat. My operator error and not thinking about taking off from a moving vessel! I hovered at eye-level but didn't think about the boat moving and the guy wire from the main mast stuck my Mini 3 Pro and it plummeted into the water, only to see it drop like a rock! Unrecoverable. So, I had to pay $170 more since I could not recover the drone!

The water floats are not for landing in water as far as I am concerned - they are a great safety device if needing to get footage over deep water. If something goes wrong and the drone falls out of the sky, the floats give you a chance of recovering the drone. Drones are to expensive to not use Locator tags and if needing to get risky over water, floatation devices. I cannot see the need to deliberately land in water, but accidents do happen, and I want to get my drone back when it happens.

Hey Brennan, you forgot a major reason why somebody would want to have floaties for their drone! They are brand new to flying yet, they are flying it off a boat and they are deathly afraid of losing it to the deep blue Sea! The floats are at least a security blanket if nothing else! As for the spongy material, it could easily be replaced with the same or something else!

A drone over water is bad enough, but landing on water? Noooooo way ! The other stuff is definitely a must

Most drones are already coated in corrosion x but if not it’s easy to do it yourself and everything will be just fine after you blow off the circuit board and with pool noodle it’s not gonna sink.

Thanks for explaining the nd filters. So many people touch on that as a must have but don't go into detail. I don't have a premium drone yet but I'll be adding these once I get it.

I just bought my mini 2. I must confess I have been missing a lot not flying before now. Thanks a lot for all your videos about drones

Tipped by your vid, I bought the floaters which serve me really well hovering fish filled waters! I can land on the water, give it a few minits and then film fish from really close up. Getting out of the water was also flawless, thanks to the incredible stable DJI Mini2. When not above water, I leave the leg extenders on so I can land even on higher grass (lots of farm land around here) or rough terrain out of reach of my hands like you suggested. I use my camera to film wild life and that means patiently putting it down on remote locations. Now accessible thanks to having a drone!

This isbthe absolutely best explanation of ND filters. Your is the only one I have seen that makes sense and I understand what they are used for now

The water floats can be used in landing softly on hard surfaces and can act at bumper guards

It also provides confidence when flying over water, when in a boat for example, you would know that even if you f it up the drone will just land onto the water waiting for you to pick it up. But really it's a 1 in 100 situation no one will find themselves in on a daily basis.

Yes, but they add weight to the drone and modify his aerodinamics... (but yes they can be useful if you're at the sea doing shoots very near to the water or you need to land on it)

Lowepro Viewpoint AW BP250. Best back pack I've ever bought. Has a small customisable gadget bag that slots into the base of it that carried my mavic pro drone, two spare batts and the controller then the top half holds the charger and spare props with room for more stuff and a tablet/ laptop pocket on the rear to top it off with two front pockets for small items. Sadly long since discontinued but if you find one second hand, seriously consider it. It is amazing.

Great video. I have the floats for my Mavic 2 Pro and Enterprise Dual. When doing bridge inspections I put them on the drone as a precaution. You can loose GPS AND signal to the drone which will cause it to hover and if control is not re-established then the drone will land at that spot which normally means in the water. Just thought I'd throw out a use case. "If your DJI drone loses connection with the controller for more than 11 seconds, the failsafe RTH mode will be enabled automatically and the drone will return to the preset home point. If the GPS signal is also lost, the drone will hover, then land in place instead of returning to home. "

I’m desperate for a drone for kayaking trips but this is what concerns me. The functionality of the models I can afford make ditching a higher possibility. I can’t land it in my kayak or it will get wet. I cant drop my paddle to catch it without likely moving away from under it. It seems that if I lose signal, the cheaper drones return to launch point rather than your last known location which means I can’t risk launching on the water. I had no idea drone floats were a thing until I watched this video. Absolute game changer. Even if they just buy me five minutes on flat water to retrieve it. I’ll modify pool noodles to have spare dry floats to save flying with unbalanced and heavy wet ones. If you have any other tips for flying over water I’d be very grateful to hear them 🙏👌

@@juliemacgregor9289 if your drone uses gps, make sure you have lots of satellites visible. That’s how I lost mine. I had 10, which is the ‘minimum’ so I figured I was ok. Not sure how many I lost but it was enough that gps signal was lost, it couldn’t return to home, and it set itself down in the water. There’s a handy app called UAV forecast that can assist you in knowing when it’s good to fly :)

Just a quick note, my friend flew his drone under a bridge and it lost it's signal and flew straight up into the underside of the bridge and then crashed into the river, I live on a lake and never plan to land on the water, I want the floats incase I mess up over the lake or an eagle decides its lunch and damages it. I also like to fly over some of the streams and rivers near my place. I love this video, great job.

I still think I'll like to have floats for over water flying in my case, as a security measure, not for normal landing strategy, maybe not those or applying some kind of layer to keep water out of the floats.

Spray the floats with Hair Spray (or Photo Mat spray) and they won't absorb and will shead water faster.

So much great information Matthew! I was lucky enough to win a DJI mini SE but decided to upgrade to the Mini 2 and only received it two days ago, had my first flight yesterday. I’ve been following your channel for some weeks now. Awesome content and I have most of the accessories you mentioned but need good editing software. Adobe Pro is what I’ll eventually get.

The bag that comes with it is great! I was chuffed with it. But yes I think you're right and if I want to expand my kit, I should upgrade to backpack

I still use DJI original shoulder bag for carrying my Mini 2. Though I keep that bag in my backpack anyways, allows me to keep things organized better. I'd say ND filters is the most important accessory when it comes to video quality. Using same Freewell All-day pack. I wouldn't be able to get my cinematics without it. Great and interesting video! And thanks for sharing your LUTs, interestiing to see what you came up with!

The shoulder bag is great. If I am just out with the drone ONLY, I will tend to use it. But for a drone and some camera gear, it's just too small and a backpack tends to be the answer. Thanks for watching, appreciate it.

I recently got my first drone, mini 2, with the hope of flying it over our little yacht club on an island in the California Delta. So when I bought it of course I included the floats because I'm flying over water. Duh. After learning a bit about the drone (thanks for all your videos) I immediately concluded that there was no way the drone would be landing in the water; it will land where I want it to. However I have had great fun taking off and landing in the hot tub in the back yard. But I won't be using them in the Delta. I will point out that flying with the floats on decreases flying time by nearly half.

If you are doing a lot of over water flying that floats could be useful. But you would be better off taping two empty water bottles to your drone than pool noodle foam.

Thanks for your recommendations. Great video as always. Looking for the link for the LUTS.

Do you have to use premier pro to use your 10 color grading luts

I do most of my drone flying over water and have crashed one drone into a river. If I’d had floats on it, I’d have been able to recover it. I doubt people want to land their drones on water but it’s a good idea to have something that prevents sinking in the event of a crash

Be careful about checking the laws in the places you will be. Every county has different laws on how when and where your drone can be flown. General guidelines include not flying over people without express permission. Never flying over moving cars and checking fly and no fly zones for each country. If you are originally from the US and plan on using your footage in any commercial application (ie anything that you or another person/ company makes money off of) you do have to have a Federal drone pilots license. They aren’t super hard to get but there are limited testing centers and dates. If you have any other questions please feel free to comment back. I am currently licensed in the US and am more than happy to help

I use this landing water kit for my Hubsan Zino Mini Se and works just fine, i use for when i paddling with my SUP on the lake :)

8:00 - those floats would be absolutely ideal for me, I have an 8x8 amphibious vehicle, and intend to have a drone track me as I float it. the ability to land and take off from water would be a godsend - as I often film in locations where RTL is not a viable option because of the uneven or heavily vegetated terrain. 12:28 - I'd use or make a car charger - or a sine-wave inverter.

An issue might be the splash the rotors create as you take off and land. Since most DJI drones have no water resistance, you might find water incursion into your drone from the spray.

As far as the power bank id like to point out that the DJI controller is capable of recharging the Drones batteries 9 times on a full charge. This also works with the fly more charging hub. The power bank would be useful if you wanted to fly and charge batteries at the same time and could probably do it quicker.

Great vid, I’m thinking about the ND filters but so many options when looking at them. I’m planning on using my drone in Australia so be pretty sunny, wondering what filters would you recommend for a sunny environment thanks.

A landing pad, ND Filter, landing legs extension, Power bank are all what you need. Freewell ND Filters are just too expensive. The Sunnylife ND filters are just as good and do a good a job. A drone hand-catch can be very dangerous, one time I was distracted by a hand catch and the props cut my fingers.

Thanks for a great video, I’m a new mini 2 user. Quick question, will Luts work with iMovie?

Thanks man, really helpful again! Si

I imagine the floats would be best to get s specific shot while taking off from calm water but I don’t fancy it.

Great video. Can I use these suggested filters on my DJI Mini (one)?

Just bought a mini 2 as my first drone. Haven't flown it yet. Planning to use it for filming surfers. I am thinking combination nd/pl filters would be better than standard nd filters for use over water. Does that make sense or am I missing something?

one little bit of advice using a polarizer with the wide angle of view of the drones, can hav a problem. it can darken one side of the bue shy and not the other so you do not have an even sky

Hi, great videos and tutorials, just love your channel!

As a newbie I could totally see my self flying out of battery and not updating the home point if my boat is moving so eventually the drone would land on water and I could still go and save it :D

Love it!

I watched your videos and also bought freewell ND filters but only 4 of these .. and for a bag i ordered GOPRO daytripper and 20 000 mha power bank. .

The polarised clip... 🤩 Honestly thought it was an graphic at first

can you add cinematic motion blur post process thus avoid the need of ND filters?

I have bought some of those floaties for my Mavic Pro 2. They are good for safety, and all, but there were a lot of times, when you they would show up in the corners of my photos and if I did pano or anything creative, they would get in the photo. Also, you have to remember that they can catch wind and if you stretch your flight, they might have difficulty making it back....even if it is over land. Overall, they are ok.

I'm going to order the water mounts because my worry is losing my drone in the sky and I think with the orange foam I will be able to see it better.

Great review and video! Do you recommend buying ND filter with PL for videos only and ordinary ND filter for still photos? And about the PowerBank, Amazon does not sell them at the moment, could you recommend another? Again great video and now i'm part of the 14,7 % who is subscribing to your channel ;)

I get the whole power bank thing they are very useful but surely you can recharge the drone batteries from your in car charger ?

Filters are a must if you want proper motion blur. All the rest is a waste. I don't even use the case, that stays in the truck. I carry a battery bag with a shoulder strap that holds the controller with phone, 2 batteries and the Mini 2 that has one battery in it and a filter on it. Sometimes I use the smart controller and leave the stock controller in the truck in the mini's bag. The mini or mini 2 you don't even need a landing pad when flying in a sandy area, just land it in your hand.

Will these work on the mini se?

Hey Matheww for the vid, very informative and no I am not putting floats on my drone

Seems to me that the foam floaties waterlogging problem would be reduced or solved altogether by hitting them with some rattlecan krylon.

Those floats are good if your drone disconnects suddenly over water could be a lifesaver.

Your videos are informative for that reason I subscribed. thank you keep them coming. I didnt buy the mavic 2S just yet.. after Thanksgiving I'm going to. as far as power bank goes , I have an AC outlet in my car. so that's not an issue.. I can just plug the charger directly in.

Wouldn't the blue colour backpack be better for the drone to detect when tracking you?

If you have dji care and doing flights over water then the floats are a must. A failed battery or you make a mistake, If you can recover the drone, you can use dji care. Even if it lands in rough water and turns over. No drone recovery means no insurance.

Hi mate sorry what was the name of the software you use ? I’m very new to the drone scene and very much an amateur KZreadr but I want to improve my filming and editing

If you have DJI Care Refresh plan, wouldn’t it be good to use the float landing when flying near water (say if you’re out kayaking or canoeing)? If the drone accidentally flies into the water, at least it might float and allow you an opportunity to retrieve it and get a replacement from the DJI Care Refresh program? Thanks for your videos!

What an amazing drone! =)

Hi There, it would be better using polystyrene tubes instead of foam as this would reassure floatability on the water and probably lighter to...

Have you got the link for these please

I have floats and always use them over water, but not for landing on water. If your drone comes down, for whatever reason, you can pick it up floating on the water and you have something to return to dji under dji Care for exchange, which is far cheaper than for a lost or flyaway drone. This happened to me when I got too close to the rigging of my sailing boat, it hit a shroud wire, which tipped the drone over, which stopped the motors. The mini 2 dropped into the water upside down, lifeless and resembling a dead parrot! I simply picked it, returned it to dji Care and had a new drone within 4 days costing £40 as against over £200 for something that couldn't be recovered from the bottom of the sea after it had sunk. I confess that I have also learnt my lesson about flying into a confined spot with a whisky in one hand!

Great Video!
