My apologies about the stuttering in some of the flight footage, this was a rendering error I didn’t catch before uploading! Rest assured here is the footage rendered in its original 30fps :) kzbin.info/www/bejne/nZm4l5qcrJqkl7M

[@pornzi]

I was about to say champ, I was getting nauseated and about to say you aint doing the action cam any wonders lol

[@likwidkool]

I was wondering if it was just me. 😂

[@KoelAnderson]

Don’t sweat it bro. Guessing you were vlogging in 24 and flight footage was 30 so your timeline was 24

[@Voidroamer]

aah, render error. ok

[@krissmith1986]

What part of OC? I was thinking Ladera Ranch initially, but that doesn’t seem right. Cool spot. I’d love to rip there. I spend most of my time in OC.

[@Christianperasso]

Great video, I like this style, keep it coming Alex. I’ve always used Action2 (I had three) but after getting the O3 I sold 2 of them and the one I still have is always in the backpack. Truth is, I learned that (for Freestyle) I can live without audio and no motion blur, if that means flying with 600Gr builds (only Kiss Ultra of course😉) without 80gr on pitch. Also, O3 has better dynamic range and I can overexpose always a little without loosing too much of the sky (she can handle it) and, of course, O3 has less details since I fly 2.7k 120fps 4:3 wide, but again it’s a compromise and I’m fine with that. PS if you want to squeeze the O3 use D-Cinelog, 10bit, detail -2 and NR -2 and locked exposure usually overexposed by 1 stop roughly, that’s what I’m using in all the videos in my channel.

[@---eu1uw]

The tower flyby was unreal. At that speed flying past yourself…. Just awesome.😮

[@gadgetrc94]

Loved the freestyle vlog. I miss those. Also, fantastic proximity flow without a single trippy spin! Amazing!

[@schittyFPVpilot]

Great stuff from the captain! No matter how good your quad is, it needs a phenomenal pilot on the sticks to do that sort of stuff. I can only dream of flying like that 🚀🚀🚀👍🏻

[@apkproductions]

You are my FPV hero. I just built my first FPV drone. FPV drones are so much fun.

[@IBCrazyR]

There you are! Freaking amazing as always.

[@sunsetpark_fpv]

I can't speak for the drone but Jeezus....the pilot is incredible. Just amazing how you manage throttle. And thank you for including a crash, that convinced me that you're human but I really know that you're an alien and you included that just to trick me.... Amazing flying Vanover. Those lines where you go through that little back alley is mind blowing....you're speed is always constant.....😎

[@wesley4713]

beautiful rip. I love them flowy moves. Can't wait to see you fly live at wct. Cheers

[@DriftaholiC]

03 and Action2 are very similar in sensor and color. Just record on the air unit. Try 2.7k 120 with the shutter locked to 120, auto iso capped, d cinelike for 10 bit color then use a mavic d-cinelike lut in resolve to color correct. I like to record 0.3-0.7 stops over exposed as well to retain the shadows then bring the highlights down in post. Might be a little more work putting on an nd filter to the 03 and doing post production but it's worth it for the weight savings.

[@kyrofpv]

Great video Vanny! Glad to see you posting again. Keep that amazing content coming.

[@KimFusedFPV]

Video looked good! Gotta love the homie DanZ ❤. Neat place you found to fly. 🎉

[@rip_fpv]

Love the story telling style vlog with shots of you riding off/arriving

[@nolandfpv]

Always a pleasure watching you fly.

[@baggszilla]

Awesome video my man!! Your my favorite pilot and I can't wait for your new Vannystyle Pro Frame! I'm buying 3!

[@ElviraSpace]

Awesome love it 😍

[@kitsandham7001]

What a ride! Thanks.

[@SukhoFPV]

amazing!!!🔥🔥🔥

[@AuxPlumes]

Yes ! Light is the way, it just feels better overall, you have more time to do tricks close to the ground. Some people don't like how floaty it is, but it's just a matter of picking the right props. Still not a fan of the extra large fov, the regular "superview" fov fits your flying style better, but that's subjectiv ; )

[@UKkenny]

amazing flights ! loved it 👍👍👍

[@dutchfpv7010]

That fast freestyle is epic. You keep it so smooth and stretch your lines to the limit. Sick brother!

[@canigetachannel]

Fully! Thanks Vanny! Peace.

[@offaxisfpv]

right on Capt'n !!!!

[@gldcreative6425]

Love the flow man! Full of talent.

[@chrisneff3489]

Footage looks Great man. Nice work!

[@kakafpv]

Amazing flight

[@flyinryanfpv]

I swear! It looks like there's a fine line between luck and skill with that flying!! Cheers Fam 🍻

[@SunriseWaterMedia]

😂 true

[@KCQuadTronX]

thanks brother...THIS IS AWESOME!!!!

[@ILLBEDRONED]

Hence the term "Vannystyle" 💯🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 Didn't even notice the props til you mentioned it lol 👊😎

[@slicksix8892]

That's why I can't break away from analogue.✌

[@JonE5FPV]

100% agree. O3 and Action 2 when needed were my biggest changes for a while. I havent flown a gopro regularly in a very long time.

[@jordancraig5188]

Amazing flying!

[@MANDOXsquid]

danz is an awesome dude! Always has the fire spots in the area over here.

[@DanZfpv]

My dood. ❤

[@ghostdropfpv]

2 Vanny videos, its like Christmas ! hope to see this more !!!

[@tubsucks]

inspiring vid man lots to learn here. time to wood-shed what Iv'e seen peace

[@LazyDayFPV]

Back at it!!

[@theFuzzzzz]

I’ve been flying with the dji action 2 ever since it came out, great lightweight cam

[@Joaninhaqvoa]

congratulations for the video, it was top

[@ATekFPV]

great shredding as always

[@ReyesJim]

EPIC Video!!!!

[@headsupfpv]

Love the content and flying, keep it up !

[@captainvanover]

Thanks bro 🙏

[@DescomplicandoDrones]

perfect tricks

[@imager09tube]

Thanks Cap!

[@TBloodFPV]

smooth AF as_ALWAYS - same been cutting weight myself- 03 only w a rode mc to catch audio. adds steps to your post processing time... but the extra 110 grams of battery if i want is very nice to have. Im in the OC as well hell ya Capt.! on my first frame rotor riot got me to pull the triger _ finally built a 4 legged bird 2 months ago. Ur an inspiration!

[@philipjenkinsDjiflyer]

Man that dive down that Tower was bas ass bro

[@casper01]

Wow Capt, your flights are smooth as! That footage from the DJI Action 2 is pretty crisp, and being lighter than the GoPro 11 mini, it seems a logical 4k solution. 💯

[@newtmcfly3637]

You're flying is amazing as always... the picture looks amazing however on PC and on my phone with highest settings It stutters through the frames.. I had same effect when I used 2.7k 30fps on my session 5.. I'm super green with setting but it almost makes me nauseous to watch

[@trfpvVT]

yah its a frickin slidshow, made me sick

[@tango_sierra8608]

More vlog style content like this please. Love it

[@captainvanover]

More to come!

[@mariorossi1633]

astonishing

[@patrixfpv]

Awesome! I was thinking of getting the 11mini but now maybe the action2 will be better.

[@inoc805]

Sold you one of the Session 5s a little while back. I was thinking of flying the DJI cam.

[@WKfpv]

Same here. I feel like my quad never flew as good as when I was flying the session 5. I just adaptes to the heavier quad, but I really loved it when it was 600gr.

[@stormriderfpv]

Nice flying as always! Yeah we don't need full size gopros for freestyle, I chose the Action 2 as well, quality is OK and weight is a big win.

[@phillove4562]

Great video! You are simply the best out there! What ESC do you use with KISS Ultra Mini? Thanks!

[@AirviewDroneScotland]

Bro! I was thinking of that cam a week ago. But the memory and battery size are my main concerns. Cool footage, THX!

[@sffpv9671]

Great content as always Alex. Already mentioned in earlier comments but the footage definitely seems to be missing some frames. Maybe something in the Action 2 setting itself but on this video it doesn't seem very smooth.

[@JeromeDemers]

I didn't notice prop in view until you told us.

[@overfly_pt]

Amazing 👌 super 🤟👌

[@grimripperrr]

Nice! my goal has actually been to see if I can make my quad even heavier

[@sergeijoukovski3822]

how confident are you ? YES. You are something else, i would be happy to rip my at 1/4 the speed xD

[@kazudrone1098]

hi cap.....man , its insane flight....congratulations .........my name is Alexandre , i from Brazil .....see you in the next one......

[@jejefpv]

I switched to Action 2 a long time ago too. If you are using DaVinci Resolve, you can add a little bit of Color Boost and saturation, it really helps to get colours less flat/cold 👌From your experience, are 20x20 stacks as durable as 30x30 stacks ? I am especially concerned about ESCs, larger mosfets might be more durable/resilient, don't you think ?

[@likwidkool]

Love me some kiss ultra!

[@mrmagoo600]

Been considering moving away from Go Pro, much to big and heavy now, A2 has seemed the obvious choice and this looks good, flying was super tight man loved it,

[@BaldmanFPV]

Welcome to the [light]side. Now we just have to get Bardwell in.

[@spyro9979]

The goat is back

[@calebd1776]

yooooooo, the vannystyle pro! come on with it!

[@CrowHagen1986]

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@mdk42o74]

I can not wait for the dji 04 air unit even with the 03 I use go pro less but the 04 should be golden

[@jackson7096]

Have to play ur flow back @ .25 speed and spend 5 mins thinking about how the hell you do some of this 🤝 amazing bro

[@Joeyzoom]

Yassss love the vlogs! Are you planning on uploading any storm chasing vids? I know I've seen you with Reed recently 😉😉

[@PattyFlipz]

Argh, I miss my Dji Action 2. Lost it at the top of a mountain along with a 7" drone. LOL. Now I bought the GP11 mini and through the testing I agree with your sentiments. My quad is less agile and less responsive for sure because of the added weight... hmmmmmmm :/ Thanks for the video!

[@christhorney]

i just orderd your frame with the motors combo from RR on sale for $154 so im stoaked, i fly with no action camera so it will be really interesting to see how hard it rips with just a wasp link kit and 1200-1300mah packs.. i still need electronics and the link kit but all in good time, i tend to fly fast flowy lines a lot like you just without the reverse madness lol and i know your a stickler for a good flying quad so i thought i would be safe going for you frame for a lighter weight performance build

[@PatrickThe4]

Awesome video! Definitely like to make my quads as light as possible. Was wondering if your TX16S faceplate (the triangle print) was custom made or if it's able to be purchased somewhere?

[@johndeesfpv9289]

nice

[@antoineozaneaux6881]

hey the 5.1 vannystyles are nice .

[@blksrt4u]

Care to share the settings you used for the action 2? Footage looking good!

[@eprohoda]

yeah. interesting drone,

[@adamzurawski1]

Would love to see a picture and picture of you flying so we can see you using the controller

[@JevinW]

Ya the action 2 just suffers with dynamic range but ngl those settings made it look pretty good. Nice video my man👌

[@checkeredflagfilms]

Cool. Have you tried the GP-10 Bones? I fly with it and like it. (54g) / Action 2 (56g).

[@WOTHFPV]

Why not just use a DJI O3?

[@dougwalls1162]

Agreed! The O3's look great! Truth is, when you can fly like Alex is really doesn't matter - I come for the flying, not the camera quality so much. Awesome video!

[@lemonsquareFPV]

Too much compromise! The settings and look you want for proper footage is completely different to what you need for a good FPV feed. Personally, I tried to make it work for a few months and gave up. If it’s just for DVR style clips, go for it! It’s great for that 👍🏻

[@ninmarioscc]

Exactly.

[@Yo.R-FPV]

because you can't fly like the captain 🤩 and shoot on 30fps for the beautiful motion blur ! there is way too much latency at 30FPS with the O3 !!!

[@changeagent228]

No sound but maybe they will release another camera with a mic one day. I don't mind the 4K but miss the whooshing and screaming.

[@ramsifpv]

flew incredibly fast and very cool. What are your Action2 settings 🔥😎

[@b3owu1f]

Man I wish I had your skills.. or even 1/4 of them. I just bought the BMPCC4K naked kit and hopefully can build my AOS 7 cine to fly that bad boy.. but havent even flown a drone yet. So looking to ramp up my ability to fly! Got any tips other than use the sims (which I suck in also). Would love if there were an affordable class near me.

[@lordparkyfpv1406]

Nice work. Are the props flexing up into the camera view under power?

[@mcronfpv8736]

Im curious about the action2 best iso setting

[@kawasakimouse]

There is something about the DJI Action 2 cam where i cant put my hands on. Its like my head can not process the video fast enough to enjoy the image.

[@kennykobi]

this is serious man nice flight whats your bl heli settings?

[@leonardothillet6423]

Why not a Gopro Bones or Naked? I mean is half the weight of the Action 2, if saving weight is the matter. Beautiful flight as usual Captain!

[@audiogek]

Don't know if it's youtube and or if anyone has noticed, but every 4th frame is missing in the flight footage.

[@DanZfpv]

There is a frame rate mismatch happening.

[@DeMoNSe3d]

Do you use any stabilization? Looks really smooth!

[@timrodriguez1]

🤘🤠

[@enrico320i]

Like that New Frame design on the front part, great job man. I fly three of your Vannystyle Frames as Main rig with O3. I always tought about how to fit in the O3 perfectly (think you know my 3D print for the front part on Thingi). I absolutly like how the Vannystyle flys and i definitly stay with it as Main Frame. I would Love to test this New "perfect" Version, looks like this is the way to go. Strong Carbon Cage and 3D inserts, great work man. Any chance of getting this piece of art in Germany? Action 2 by the way, video looks great, it's a nice Camera for the weight. My Vannys weight about 700g AUW with the Action 2 and still a few prints.

[@RCGemblung]

Hi Captain... please occasionally share a compilation of your drone crash clips... because it's impossible to fly fpv like you without crashing it when you began this hobby...

[@CarbonGlassMan]

Your camera angle looks so low but your speed is really fast. Maybe it's the FOV with the o3 air unit. I noticed I am flying way faster than normal with the same camera angle I have on my Vista quad.

[@dylanmeaney4872]

I think the action 2 is a bit to wide for me (fov) 😅 How is the low light on the action 2?

[@TomicaCZ]

Awesome flying, as usual... May I ask you what are your current rates? I found your rates on RR web but it says max 475 deg/s which seems too slow for some flippyty-flips that you've shown in this video :D

[@Krunked]

glad its flying great man! haven't heard from you in a long time. reach out! would love to do something with yuh or at least be involved if i can!

[@Krunked]

also as a soundbite; yes. the stock tune is suited for ROUGHLY a 700g quad on average.

[@BrownSoloFPV]

Call me crazy but I kinda dig the slight props in view. Gives more of a "in the drivers seat" feeling 👌🏼
