Here is a video of a guy who likes to fly backwards.
Or do you think his videos are reversed?

That was a Great video but was reversed for most of it. No way a person can fly backwards like that between trees

It’s footage both reversed and sped up, you can see this pretty clearly with the kid in the boat, if boat was going at that speed we see then this kid is anything but safe, but it’s a great combo video.

No, any decent LOS pilot could do similar; as long as the drone is straight in front of you then it's not that hard.

Unfortunately too many people fall into the trap of only flying through the camera and as such have very little skill when it comes to LOS

Sorry but you're wrong, you can clearly see the wake of the boat to indicate the direction it's moving in.

It's probably sped up but it's not reversed.

I didn’t mean they were all reversed and sped up, some reversed some sped up.

I believe a lot of us would of never got past the first tree. And that would of been flying forward.

That was my thought!!   It would have been a really short video if it was me!  "Full speed backward, into a tree"

Yeah, some of it had to be reversed.. some of the shots had to be way out of LOS.  Nice Video though

Most of his videos were filmed backwards, It really isn't that hard. It just takes guts. Are you prepared to crash? As long as you can see the gap then you can fly through it. Keep your drone between you and the sky then you can do it. The only problem is your left becomes your right and your right becomes your left. If you can train your brain for this then you too can do it. It's like a remote control car, when driving away your left is left but when driving towards your self then your left becomes right.
Saying all that, I'm too scared to try most of what this guys does. I can't afford to go out and buy another MP.

Could easily be, the videos were all filmed going forward.  
With a lightweight camera attached to back of drone to make appear as if drone is going backwards.

Could be.
Although it needs some decent stabilization to work with the motion of those 4 props.

Amazing. I think most of it is really backwards flying. Maybe some footage has been speeded up in post.

Very impressive.  I could definitely tell some of the footage was flying backwards which was amazing.  Even if you argued some of it was reversed, still mad talent.
