Thanks, I'm now anxious to try it out because of your video.
Man, its so useful that you point out what buttons you press. A lot of tutorials just say "lets enter ___ mode" but they dont show how to do it. Thanks bro. Really helpful and makes me wana go out and practice.

I love TapFly on the Mavic Air. In Forward, you don't need to manage speed, altitude, or direction. All remain constant unless, of course, if you deliberately adjust either of them. When you do want to make a change in either speed, altitude, or direction, you can with the joy sticks. Then let go when the new parameters are set and the drone flies on it's own while you manage the camera. In Reverse, you get the same functionality. In Free, you cannot change direction with the yaw stick. That makes sense as you want the yaw stick to control the camera direction. Like the previous modes (Forward/Reverse) you can change speed or altitude. What I like most about the Coordinate mode is, when flying in restricted space, you don't need to worry about flying too far. Your end point is set. This acts like a dynamic waypoint mode. You fly to the first point, reset flight or camera parameters, then set your new waypoint and proceed. I am looking forward to having this level of control on my P4P.

If you choose the Free mode, you can´t change the direction with the yaw stick. But is it possible to change direction with tapping on the screen? Does the OBS sensors working in this mode?
Excellent job-thank you!

Great video- thanks man; just what I needed. I usually manually fly the Mavic Air, but today & wanted a specific shot, & Tapfly was exactly what I needed. I had never really used Tapfly, so your video was super helpful & helped me get the shot! Thanks!
Simply the best and clearest explanation of tap fly, with excellent examples, thanks!
Great vid! It really blew my mind as I didn't give importance to this flight mode.
You're not bullshitting, you're giving the info you say in the title, you're crisp and sharp in your exprimation, not loosing my time. Like and subscribe from me, 100% deserved in this mediocre world of rating and clickbaiting...
I am just now getting into it. I have not used Free yet but that one looks to be my new favorite as it is yours. Enjoying the videos Mike, keep it up man! I plan to keep watching and look forward to your next videos.

It's such a great feature. I use it a lot my self
Great job. Thanks for sharing. Your efforts and time are appreciated.
Thanks for the video. Wished you would have spent more time explaining the functions and more footage. Still waiting for my air to arrive.
If I were to walk through a field of canola here in Australia, I'd be bitten by 11 different species of snake.. lol

Really useful vid. I've never really used Tap Fly much so never realised its potential. Thanks 😄👍
Nice tips !!
How do you make sure your drone doesn't fly out of range with Free Tapfly? And how do you take control of the drone in the middle of this mode if you feel like moving in a different direction manually?
Thanks again for this great tutorial! Is there a certain way to set these shots in 4K? I see in your upper window that you were able to. My MA still defaults to 1080. Thanks again. 👍
Rewatched video. Levels on audio (voice/music) are perfect bro. Find the music adds to the production quality 👌
Very informative. Will definitely try this in near future. Fun to watch your videos. Thanks

I used tapfly backwards it ascended as it went backwards and it hit a branch
This guy does great work
Great audio man. What track is that at the beginning? It sounds amazing with some headphones on!

Great topic and I love the Free Tap Fly mode.
Can I do this with my spark? What about the Mavic 2 pro my dream machine???
Thanks for the video! Where in the setting would I turn on that red gimbal line?
Awesome video!
cool video. Will give tapfly a go...
** Great vid, thank you. Quick question, what happens if the drone looses connectivity with the controller?
wth is the point of coordinate? Is it like Free except that it will stop at that point?
One of the biggest fail on mavic 2 is absent of course lock. This is for sure similiar mod.Thanks for video!
Good video & tips, thanks! I wonder though, how to make yaw sensitivity smooth in a free mode? Despite I'm having yaw sens very low, it acts crazy when in free mode.

how do you interrupt the mode? by hitting the pause button on the controller?
I haven't tried any of the automated flight modes yet. I'm still flying strictly manual, but I think I'm comfortable enough now to start trying some of them. I need to follow a semi truck down a road and the camera shot being smooth is much more important than the flight path. A simple straight line for the drone while turning the camera will be awesome. How well does the drone still track if you end up rotating 180 degrees around? I assume it's making a GPS point to go to, not really a virtual place on the screen?
@DroneSupremacy
6 жыл бұрын
I'm not sure what's the technology behind it, but the drone definitely follows the same path even when rotating 180 degrees. You can see a straight red line on the map when I'm using the Free mode, and i'm sure the drone has some GPS coordinates to help it follow that path. But it's very stable and generally super easy to use.

I’ll have to try it. What about waypoint? I hear the Mavic Pro has that mode...are we missing something good?

Currently no waypoints on the Mavic Air, but if you use Litchi app you can get this feature. Not 100% if they're worth it or not, but i will be checking out Litchi in the very near future :)
Great video! A question! Can you limit the max speed on a mavic air? I wanna lock the max speed to like 7km/h and fly close and through trees, but its hard to run after and at the same time keep the drone exactly in the same speed..
What software did you use for the edit ? Thanks
I wish it was more like my Bebop 2 Flight Plan which is really awesome
I will try this ,Thumbs up bro

Whenever I press “go” on tapfly on all 4 features, it goes for a second then stops.. I have tried setting Go to many directions but it just stops after a second of it moving towards it.. PLEASE someone help!!!
I miss an auto gimbal up/down feature.
Great video
good job bro!!!!!!!!!!!!
How do you smooth out the yaw settings in Tap Fly? After I set them to smooth in EXP, they don't hold in Tap Fly.

try air data, you can have all the informations of your flights.
Will the drone return to the starting point? I had my Maiden flight last weekend and got a little scared when I lost sight of the drone. Luckily I heard it🤣
MY ONLY INTEREST is to preplan flight lines north 1500', east 30', south 1500', east 30', north 1500', east 30', south 1500' and so on ... On my Parrot Bebop, I could set this pattern up without even turning on the drone... PRE PLANNED FLIGHT ... On my Holy Stone 550, it appears my drone must be hovering(not sure what height), while I figure out how to set up 2 miles of flight lines ... all the while wasting critical flight time ... 25 minutes become 10 minutes after wasting 15 minutes setting everything up ... no worthwhile alternative
Music??
When in coordinate, do you have free control of the camera like in "Free" mode?
@DroneSupremacy

No, you only have control over the gimbal, and not the yaw.
If you had used tap fly when you were flying under that rock arch by the sea would the drone have still drifted and crashed?

I'm note quite sure, i might have been safe when using the "forward" TapFly mode, but i'm not 100% confident as i don't know how much the drone relies on the GPS signal while using TapFly. Might have to ask DJI engineers to be sure ;)
Hi Mike, another great interesting video, I will have to try some of these different modes to help get some impressive footage, at the moment still just using the sticks! I’ve had issues with batteries, a few months back received a “ broken cell warning” please land ASAP! And contact DJI, which I did and they replaced the battery, 10 days ago got exactly the same warning with one of my other batteries! This time DJI won’t replace! Under 11 months old, only 8 charges and max 10 minutes total flying time, I’m hoping to talk to higher management in a couple of days time to sort the issue!!! I have just bought a MacBook Pro 2017, and I used to use Pinnacle 19 Ultimate on my Home pc for editing! But Pinnacle is not compatible with the MacBook, and it looks like you’re using maybe a Mac for your editing and I was wondering this guy has some decent footage going on ! So what editing software do you recommend please Mike? Keep up the good work! Subscribed months ago! 👍 Dave in the UK.

Hey Dave! Sorry to hear about your battery issues, hope you get them sorted ASAP! As for your editing question - yes, I use a Mac as well and i use Final Cut Pro X for all of my editing. I find the software really easy to use both by beginners and more advanced users, and it also works best with Macs for rendering/exporting times (it's much quicker than any other software). However, if you're looking for a free solution you can check out Davinci Resolve, it's a good alternative. Good luck, and thanks for the support! 🙌🏻
I also like TapFly a lot. Espacially the free mode is great. However, I have a problem with it. I have changed my EXP settings to 0.1 yaw to get very smooth turns. However, in tap-fly it seems the EXP settings are not used. The yaw-speed is very sensitive and I do not get a smooth turn. Any ideas how to smoothen the yaw-speed? Can you confirm that EXP-settings are not used in tap-fly?
