LESSON LEARNED @0:56: Do not fly proximity if the distance is long.  Possibility of lost visuals and accidents

Hello there VideoLife. Good day and thank you for sharing  this interesting FPV video that you have filmed. Nice flying and have a nice day. .

That feels really fast.   

Really nice video.    The speedometer display is interesting.  Around the :56 mark I bet you were glad the brakes didn't engage or else that could have been really bad.  Anyway, close call and lesson learned.

Thank you friend, I appreciate your support!
Yes, the lucky circumstance is that the brakes did not activate ... only for a moment the visual began to be lost, so I immediately increased the height of the drone.
But yes, of course, this is a great lesson for anyone flying this drone.
Do not fly low if the distance from the drone is large.

Yes, but honestly, it can be faster.
I mostly flew in S mode, and only briefly in manual mode because I still don’t have a complete sense of control

Wow good save there when you lost visual.  Was it just because you flew slightly out of range?

The drone was about 750 meters away from me and the signal began to fade slightly. Fortunately, the signal was not completely lost, because if it had happened, the "brake" would have been activated, which would have meant that the drone would have hit the ground.
Luckily, as soon as I noticed the beginning of the visual loss, I started lifting the drone

That is true!

Everyday on here is a learning day for me.  My brain is saturated with new material so now it's time for a break and a cold beer.
