Another longish video of my exploits with the DJI FPV drone.
New this week: training practice inspired by TheTomJon, ND filters, a new found "canyon", manual settings. Shouldn't try to land in M mode, at least not wearing goggles. A bit windy for a few of the practices... Still got a bit of "cinematic" footage as well.

Did you nearly hit a cyclist?

Not that I noticed. What's the time stamp?

Looks very cool!

I see big improvement in M Mode flying, especially the tighter turns.  Seeing where other pilots are having issues with landing in M Mode while wearing goggles.  Keep at it you are doing fantastic.

Thank you, Downtown. It's a lot of fun. Maybe I'll try landing in M without the googles. Though pulling them off while flying M will be a challenge as well. Not necessary anyway.

Thank you, Peter!

You're welcome!

I think a fpv is next on my list!

Yeah, go for it!

What about a 360 degrees loop? have you tested that?

What do you mean: flying forward then yawing 360 degrees and continue flying forward? That, I did.

I mean, upwards, and rotating 360 degrees. It means, that when you are on 180 degrees, the Drone are turned upwards down.

Pretty cool, Depp!

Interesting to watch your progress.

Yes, did that:



at 13:36. Not smooth, no staying at 180° for a second.

around 2:43.

around 2:43.

No. That's just the people that come with me.

Is there a name for a group of spotters?

Yes: spots!

Yes: spots!

hahahaha.

You're very welcome Depp.

Thanks a lot, Ten!

My pleasure.

I did see you'r second Video Depp, and it works with the 360 loop ;-)  But it goes so fast, that it actually was difficult to see, what really happens. Next time, maybe take a much bigger Arc in the loop.

Yes, maybe. I was already feeling very brave trying it at all ;-)

Pilot's sometimes need to be brave . I have seen real Helicopter do the tricks.
