My venture into FPV has been a rough road, but stuck to it.   Did my first acrobatic maneuvers today and that was a major hurdle on my road to FPV pilot.  

Nicely done.    

Awesome flying, Barn! Thanks for sharing this with us. Take care and happy flying!

Looks good!

Cool footage.    Congrats on accomplishing your acrobatic maneuvers.

Very cool!

Nicely done, i am glad you stuck to it! ;)

Thanks guys.

Great flying! I haven't yet turned off the attitude limit, but I believe I'm getting close.  I have a couple questions, when doing your rolls, did you just use the roll stick and cut the throttle, or did you incorporate a little bit of yaw into the roll, also?  And an unrelated question, but at about 4:30 in the video when you did the quick yaw spin, did you experience any prop wash?  Whenever I seem to yaw spin quickly, the bird gets jittery and feels like I'm getting a load of propwash.  Really nice flying, I'm looking forward to being confident in my abilities to give it a go.

Nice open space to practice the art.

I definitely use yaw.  Bardwell has a video on counter controlling for roll and he does a good job of analyzing it.   The gimbal on the DJI however is not fixed, it changes pitch slowly so you also have to add pitch .  The slower the roll the more you have to control the pitch.  I can't tell you exactly what I do on any manuever, my fingers are programmed and seem to do the right thing after a lot of time on Liftoff.   The only time I had problems with propwash was in a steep dive and didn't pull out correctly and it caught up to me.   I watch the altitude trying to stay at the same  before and after.   They're easy, you just have to keep doing it.   Here's the video

Thanks for the feedback and video! I've been practicing in LiftOff a lot, also, and will keep at it.
