They know the aircraft inside out, but complacency is what leads to things being missed, and if a fault is missed then you are asking for trouble. Well, as I said in teh first post, it's based on experience flying manned fixed wing aircraft.Įven pilots with hundreds of hours flight time use the checklist every flight. i actually said OMFG out loud, i couldn't read that before flight, it would be exhausting, i don't have that much drink in my flask, but I'm sure it would serve a purpose for newbies, seasoned pilots will have their own way of doing it and it will be set in stone, but, it will give them sommat to read if they take the lazy way on the return flight ) Its different with the Mini 2 as the props are already attached and the battery, well, if you go wrong with that then perhaps you should be flying the Tello lol.ĭamn, thought i'd best at least look at yours before i post this and DAMN. Since getting the mini 2, mine is mostly just putting the battery in and sending it, i know everything else is as i left it when i put it in the bagĭifferent matter when i fly the P4P though, the battery latching can be troublesome so that's a preflight right there and i check it many times and also the props, they too can be troublesome if you are not mindful when fitting them, again, i check them multiple times.

The mini/short cehcklist is a credit card sized cut-down version with just the 'essentials'. It contains pre-flight and post flight checks as well as a couple of 'emergency' procedures

It's easy to forget that we still need these preflight checklists for the Mavic Mini because it's such a fun and small drone. It makes my life easier! Standard operating procedures are a great thing for any drone pilot to be familiar with and incorporating this preflight checklist for the Mavic Mini is a great addition to any standard operating procedure. Small things like this are hard to remember off the top of your head, so having a nice repeatable process makes things easier on you. It's also about not forgetting memory cards, not thinking about the flight conditions or forgetting to check the firmware before flying. And it all isn't about safety either (although that is very important!!). These are the six major areas that I use as a preflight checklist when it comes to flying. In my preflight checklist, I'll go into detail of my 6 major preflight checklist areas.
