Although, I’ve been to FPV Races in breweries around here in Minneapolis. I’ve seen our local guy J. C. fly through the Bryant Lake Bowl in Uptown nearby and realized this is what the film guys what to see now. So, I bought the DJI FPV to step into FPV, (with prop guards and arm braces). You’re the first I’ve seen training FPV that I can understand and actually “feel” while in your training flight videos. I think I’ll practice on the sim for a week first.

Well, I just got on the DJI virtual flight app and spent an hour trying to practice your drills. I can’t believe it! After an hour, it just clicked! All of a sudden I caught on and totally understood how to fly with great control! I GET IT!!! At first I was going fast which I think helped me learn movement, but then I understood how to fly slower and was flying around obstacles and through gaps and I totally feel confident now next time I fly acro! I have to be honest, at first I thought I wouldn’t get it as it seemed really hard hard to learn... but with your tips I felt REALLY accelerated the learning curve! I really want to thank you so much for putting out this video, you are awesome!!! I am so excited to continue practicing and can’t wait to get back out there!!! Cheehoo!!!

Thanks a lot for very good descriptions on the moves! I'm a beginner in FPV and just switched my DJI FPV drone into manual and doing your moves. The drifting turns are awesome and it just gets more fun for every time I fly :-)
