Hello, I know you probably wont come across my comment, but just in case you do, can you talk about the 2.4 and 5.8 ghz? and also what you think is best to use to get better stronger signal. thank you.

I know that there are "landing pads" that you can get for drones. I personally suggest not getting those. If you're a photographer or filmmaker, chances are you have a 2in1 or a 5in1 reflector lying around (and if you don't you should get one). Use that (it's basically the same as the "landing pads" from the official site, but with other uses when you are filming with your camera). I carry one with me whenever I take my camera somewhere, so why not use it to land the drone? That's just my philosophy... Tall Grass be gone.

Stumbled onto your site and am impressed with your review. Not even sure why I watched the entire thing, I don't own a drone, but have to commend you on the in depth and obviously well researched presentation. I almost wish I owned a drone now.
The best review for the Mavic Air I've seen so far. I like how you go into the smaller details that others don't include.
WOW! That was the very best overview/review/handson/explanations I have ever seen! And I have seen a lot about a lot! Thank you!
Excellent review Rick. As always. Cheers from Argentina

Amazing video Rick! Enjoyed watching every single part of it!
Such a great informative video. Thank you!!
Hands down THE BEST review on the web. Thank you!! BTW you have the best set up. Well lit and no clutter as to distract from your review. Amazing. Thank you
Very Informative Rick...Thanks I've had my Mavic Air for about 3 weeks and been flying it everyday. Love it
What a fantastic vlog!! Thanks rick, as always your videos are the ones that really give all the most important pieces of info!!
What an excellent review. Just what I was looking for. Thank you. Have subscribed to your channel.
Great Overview Rick! ~ Looking forward to the clips that you are preparing
Excellent video as usual Rick, thanks so much for the effort and time you put into these clips. They help newbies like me immensely.
Just got the onyx black and use a 64gb card in it. No issues so far! I love the thing! Flies excellent in wind (especially with sport mode enabled) and I haven't lost range or anything yet! Very pleased with my purchase
Fantastic in depth review. Thank you for doing such a professional review.
Such a power-packed tutorial, extremely helpful. Thanks!
Mate, I have been watching a lot of videos the last few days since getting my first drone, the Mavic Air. Your presentation is by far the best I have seen to date. Thankyou and well done :D
Top notch review and information. Thanks for sharing your comments, tips, and expertise.
Loving your work Rick!! Your the man when it comes down to in depth reviews.
You done it again Rick, well done!
Great video, thanks for taking the time to do this. Bought a mavic air last month and sold my spark, love it!

You're welcome and thanks for the post. It's an amazing quad and I'm really flying it more than my others right now because of it's portability and nimbleness in the air. Have fun! Rick
Thanks for the review Rick, I really enjoyed your perspective from an engineering and design point of view. Even though you only had the product for 48 hours I think it was a practical and in depth assessment. I'll have to check out some of your other videos.
My God it is by far the most helpful video about the Mavic Air I have seen. I could not help subscribe hahaha. Hi from Venezuela!
Wildly informative. Thank you!
I appreciate the super technical knowledge you bring to the table. Cheers!
Great review. I just took my Mavic Air on its first maiden flight. Though I was in my office but I was a bit nervous since it is my first drone. It was great!!
Excellent review. Probably one of the best on KZread. Sold me.
Great review!I had not found this channel until after I bought my drone or I would have bought through your link. But what a treasure of good advice and information. Thank you so very much.
One of the best reviews for drones that I have seen. Thank you! 👍
Great review & info for me who just got my mavic air yesterday. Thanks
Excellent video Rick can't wait to get my hands on one.
FANTASTIC REVIEW, this really gave me such a good summary from a different point of view. Thank you for spending the time to make this video.
Love the review Rick. You do such a great job breaking down the technology to a level where those of us not tech knowledgeable can understand it. Keep up the good reviews and looking forward to more in the future. BTW love the way you explained the hidden connection on the battery bank for future firmware updates. I was wonder what that was for. JVO in Michigan.
Excellent review. The best yet. Informative and easy to understand. Cheers.
Excellent comprehensive overview. Thank you so much!
I bought one of these the other day and I am blown away by how amazing it is.
Rick I enjoyed your review because you are intelligent and analyze things. Most people do superficial tests without putting much thought behind the actual development of a product and why things function certain ways. Keep doing these. Thank you.
Thanks for the detailed review Rick! Excellent delivery and views. Well presented.
Thank you very much for your comprehensive and helpful review. Nobody reviews the Mavic Air like you do!
Excellent and super precise review. Thanks.
You should’ve been the first person on KZread to make a video on this drone.always excellent reviews
New MA owner here and that cleared up a lot of technical and functionality questions I had. Thanks for the details! I look forward to more videos DV!

Outstanding Job on the video.. Thank you
amazing review :) Get the air in the mailbox today. Can't wait to fly this amazing piece of tech :)
Excellent presentation. Thanks so much for a solid review.
Nice Video !, Thanks for Sharing!
Good video, I just bought one and cannot wait to get it. It is my first drone.
What an great video! You talk so smooth and there is not much small talk 👏😁
I ordered mine last night and it should be here Wednesday! Thanks for all the info. I am upgrading from a Phantom 3 Pro (which I may keep too)
Hi Rick Really helpful video. The Mavic air is my first drone and I am slowly getting my head around it.
Thanks Rick for a great video. Just subscribed to the channel and newsletter.
Thanks for a very detailed review!
Very good video with lots of great information.
I love your videos. You made me decide to buy the Mavic Air. I did want to say about the antenna...mine do lock together at the ends when they fold up. Thought it was neat to keep them from flopping up. Again love the videos. Thanks
Cool I learned a lot, thank you!
Fantastic. Thumbs up and Subscribed.
Excellent info thank you
Yet another in depth very informative and educational presentation. Well done Rick, always look forward to and enjoy your presentation immensely. Your passion for drones is clearly visible and acknowledged. Thanks very much indeed. Cheers form South Africa
I've owned the Spark for 3 months and absolutely love it. The only negative and not major is flight time. With the Mavic Air (combo) currently selling for $160 below normal retail cost, I'm extremely close to upgrading. I hope it's not significantly noisier than the Spark. Awesome review by the way, thank you.

Paul, The Mavic Air is an amazing upgrade to the Spark and I've been flying 2 of them for over a year and love them. It flies longer and farther than the Spark and is just a dream in the air. I am uploading a clip today talking about the DJI Summer sale and have 15 coupons I'll be giving away Next week to save you another 5% off the sale price. Look for that clip to upload today and enter the contest for the chance to win one of these. It'll be a short contest and I'll pick the winners in 48 hours. If you do decide to pull the trigger before then, please use this link to help support the channel - tinyurl.com/y4gx8ccl. Thanks, Rick
Excellent. Thank you!
Thank you for the indepth look at the Mavic Air Rick. Good job In my time with the Mavic Air I found three areas I think that can be improved upon: removal of the SD card (you have to use tweezers), noise level (wish DJI would make quiter props), and the power button on the bottom (odd place to put it). Thanks again !
Great review, just subscribed.
this man is practical AF...loved it
First time Mavic buyer/user. But the review is so excellent due to Rick's knowledge. It helps me understand things I did not learn from other reviews that I had checked. Thanks Rick.
Great video... excellent presentation and information. Thank you
Awesome video! Very helpful!
That was a really worthwhile appraisal. Thank you very much.
Best review yet. Thank you
Many thanks, I am new to drones. Lots of good info here. I am subbing today. Looking forward to checking out your other vids,
Fun to watch these oldie goldies 👍👍✌️
One of the best if not the best review, thank you Rick! I bought the Mavic AIr and I didn't like your review because I wanted to justify my purchase. I bought the Mavic Air because it suits my needs. I am not worried about not having Ocusync because one of the rules in my country of flying a drone is you must only fly during the day and keep your drone within visual line-of sight..Plus the extra sensors that the Mavic Air has. I love the Mavic Air. Thanks again!
My first time watching one of your videos and I must say I am impressed. I really like your delivery, the level of detail and the way you balance your opinion with a solid level of explanation. I have subscribed and will be looking for more videos on this Mavic Air drone that I wish to purchase VERY soon.
I did a bunch of research an bought an open box Mavic Air... I'm even more happy with my purchase after your review!

Hope you enjoy it! That Mavic Air is an amazing quad and I'm still flying mine today. Even though there have been a lot of newer drones released since that quad came out, it still provides everything you need for a great day of flying and filming. Stay tuned for more content this weekend.
Nice overview of the Mavic Air, thank you.
Brilliant - thanks for the video! 😎
Im impressed by the number of words spoken in this video
Bought my Mavic Air around 14 days ago, enjoyed your review of the Mavic Air Thanks. It's a pity that today I heard about the Mavic Air 2 I should have waited but did not know it was coming , I'll stick to what I bought for a good while
Excellent review makes the drone even more attractive to buy thks
Great information, thanks...
Rick the very best in-depth review of the Mavic Air I have seen. Fantastic!!! I have been flying the Mavic Air for the last 2 1/2 weeks and truly love it. Over the weekend I sold my Mavic Pro and P4. Keeping my Spark as a backup. This is how confident I am that the Mavic Air will be my go to drone. If you take any still photos try -2 setting for the sharpness removes any “jaggies” perfect and crisp photos.

Thanks for the comprehensive analysis Rick. I got my Air a month ago and I'm extremely happy with it. The carry case in the Fly More version does fit the Air in its protective case in the side zipper compartment very comfortably, so maybe they upgraded it since you got yours.
great video am going to get the mavic air and this vid really helped me

Hi Rick, thanks for the in depth review, nice to see a reviewer with one eye on the regulations! I've just ordered one, and waiting on delivery. Glenn. UK
I love the tips like don't take card out over grass etc. If there is a stupid mistake to make I will make it. I'll also say as someone that just bought the Air it is good to see an engineer excited about it. Oops one more comment- probably the best KZread instruction I've seen on any topic.
Great, structured video and analysis - thanks! I especially appreciated the 'chapters' list in your comments.
Lovely content!
Just got mavic air love it think the review was great and informative. Have to do more flying, only problem doesn't fit not 9 phone real good.

As someone who stutters and stops a lot and needs a detailed script for narrating videos, an under-appreciated aspect of this video is this guy's lack of cuts. Very succinct, confident speaker.
I always forget to fold down the antenna’s, glad to know I’m not the only one...well done! Rick
Great video. Thank you!
Awesome in depth review... was looking at Spark,but now Uuummm.
