A mentor so good that you declined learning from him ;-)

You would probably have been wasting your time on me.Depp.
I no longer have the dexterity or co-ordination required for FPV.

i'm missing something. did you once offer to help him with FPV stuff?

I met Depp once when he was in my area.  He kindly offered to let me have a go with his FPV.
Unfortunately, at my age, I no longer have the dexterity or co-ordination to zoom about like that and would surely have crashed it
So I reluctantly declined.

that's neat. I talked to some other guys on the forum about FPVs, but none of them had any overly good advice. either argumentative or just didn't know what they were talking about. that's what's nice about the works part of the forum. most of the people on the forum don't care to look at it, so only the people who actually have something to say post there

I've always looked on the forum as a place to share experiences  and discuss.
Somewhere we can seek help and give advice, such as it might be.
A friendly community with a common interest.
And we get to see wonderful imagery from across the World, that we might otherwise never see.

totally. I've learned soooo much on the forum, mainly dji stuff, but also other stuff, like FPV.
Haha. AND when someone else spends money going to some exotic countries, they usually tell everyone else about their trip and post photos about, which means we kinda get the reward of the trip with no work
The issue now is that i don't know where to go for a FPV forum, in case if i get one and  crash it or it has issues, it would be super nice to know where to find other enthusiasts

Well the PRODUCTS/FPV section might be the place to start, perhaps.

yes, but that doesn't have walksnail, HDzero, and analog users.

You talking a foreign language to me there, with all those terms

We met in the UK last year and I wanted him to fly my DJI fpv (in Normal or Sport Mode) but he refused wanting to stick with non fpv. I had to accept that fpv is not for everyone...

Maybe for the "hard" modes but "Normal" and "Sport" is just as easy as the Minis or Airs or Mavics...

That makes.since. the thought of flying an fpv is intimidating though

I never use Sport mode on any drone
Just Normal or Cinematic.

Nice capture!
