There is a lot of that out there. If you dropped over a grand out of your pocket and you're not a multi millionare then I don't think you would be flying in derelict buildings with rebar sticking out everywhere in manual mode and would certainly reevaluate what you're doing after the first crash. I've seen Billy fly manual FPV many times on his channel without any issues in the past. This looked staged.
That's the truth even with DJI Care Refresh. I've been flying FPV for over a year now and the other day (with Avata 1) as I was going thru the wooded trees with flowing stream below and complete overhang and my drone set to HOVER on disconnect, the minute I encountering an ever-closing dark hole that seemed to block my path forward with branches dangling all over, I started getting really nervous and I turned around. Make no sense to go thru these tight spaces, dodging branches that you can't see, knowing you have to eventually come back thru them them and your signal strength is bouncing around. Sure I can fly thru small gaps on dry land with pavement below in daylight with a strong signal where I can walk over to get my drone if I bounce off something and it doesn't recover but some of these places are ridiculous. I find some of the YT video astounding the buildings they get into with apparently no fear. |
