Aloha,

     This recent video using DJI FPV products has sent Hollywood into a Whoop World, and they are blown away!  Read the article and watch the video.  Good fun if you can fly like that!  
     The pilot uses the DJI FPV Goggles (antennaes removed in the photo) and a DJI FPV Air Unit on the shrouded drone.

     Take care and be safe!

Aloha and Drone On!

Real cool, but definitely not DJI FPV.

Aloha Lucas,

     No, it is not the DJI FPV, it is a DJI FPV Series.  The DJI Goggles and the DJI FPV Air Unit Module were used.  I have no idea what Whoop quad was used but it was one of the larger ones.  (The insurance required that shrouded props were used.)  And the bowling ball in the shirt stunt was required to fly through his legs, again insurance.

     If you look at the whole article, they show the goggles without the antennae and you can spot the DJI Air Unit camera below the GoPro9 camera on the Whoop.  Happy to hear you liked it!  My friend is a director and he posted it!  (He was one of the Hollywood directors who was blown away by the video.)

     Take care and be safe!

Aloha and Drone On!

Aloha RDB,

     Yeah, that was fun!  Initially, I was confused by that but I liked the effect since I am kind of a technical guy.

     Take care and be safe!

Glad to know DJI goggles and module were used.  Either way it was an awesome video.

Aloha Lucas,

     The new DJI FPV will need shrouded props before they can be used that close to people.  Even though DJI does sell a prop protector, it is not for protecting humans and that is the problem.

     Take care and be safe!

Aloha and Drone On!
