My first 7 minutes in the air with FPV, after intense training in simulators. I’m not happy, I need more real flight and (honestly), less fear of an accident, but the feeling was an absolute “wow-effect” that occurs in life very rarely, but when it happens, it gets bombastic.

Only practice, practice, practice ...
I still don't have self-confidence and I haven't activated the actual manual mode ...

Thanks!
I have to admit I enjoy it.
I just activated actual manual mode, and the feeling is far better than limited manual mode, and sport or normal mode ...
Incredibly!

Great start.    Can't wait till you gain confidence and let her rip in M mode.  Low and fast for the win.

Haha, yes, I know. I think I would get a heart attack if I broke the drone

At least, those FPV drones look more robust than the conventional camera drones
Might stand up to the occasional bump or knock.

As far as I was able to figure out from all the videos I’ve watched on YouTube, this is like flying a glass drone.
Due to the high speed, the impact energy that is released when hitting an object is also higher.
Even in slower flight, when hitting, the "wing" always breaks ... That is why the use of "bracers" is recommended

If they made it from carbon fiber, it would be more resistant ... but I think the goal was to make people more careful when flying, because it is extremely dangerous if this drone falls on a person, due to the high impact energy

Quite so. I wouldn't like to be struck by one.
Have a look at this cautionary tale. It's an overly-lengthy YT video, but you can get the important bits from the first and last minutes and skip the middle.  And this was just a conventional drone.

I'll see when I catch the time for sure. I love any advice.
