FILMING DRIFTING LIVE for Red Bull TV

This is how the DriftMasters broadcast on Red Bull TV is shot from the drone perspective.
It takes a lot of effort, stress and dedication from a lot of people but in the end it's definitely rewarding!

This event was the best ! Awesome video as always man 🤘

[@Fincky]

It was! And you killed it at that event!!!

[@doytcheva-]

Menga FPV tellement stylé 🤟🏻

[@victordelclaudfilms2449]

Hero 4 ? Really ! Thought all these smooth fpv shots were done only with hypersmooth 🧐 in this case : No intern stabilisation, no gimbal, no shake at all ?

[@RedBullMotorsports]

Amazing job guys! 🙌

[@Fincky]

Thanks a lot!

[@sneekysmurf2084]

Why don’t you guys use 360 cams??

[@pleiadianpilot5076]

How the hell does a pfco pilot get a job like this??! I havent had a chance to utilise my pfco in over a year 😒

[@Zeesneakyninja]

Sneeky Smurf to much data to stream live I’d think and it makes the pov be too far away.

[@Zildawolf]

Sneeky Smurf as someone already said it’s too much data but also the cams are probably too heavy

[@GiffysChannel]

2:40 absolutely amazing shot

[@Fincky]

Cheers!

[@shohinfpv4559]

That one got me

[@ericdanelon5447]

I looked for this timestamp in the comments. Because that was Crazy good! WOW

[@GiffysChannel]

@@ericdanelon5447 Haha, I knew if I didn't someone would. I wonder if there was any gopro stabilization going on too or if it was all pilot.

[@Perry_Wolf]

A gif on Reddit of that shot is what brought me here!

[@kiliplays3017]

These shots look like cut scenes from pc games lol

[@Fincky]

Hehe

[@dustin0133]

that "hehe" means "ya we do those too" haha

[@Baracudus]

Sir, hold my beer. I.'m official impressed!

I know right , looks unreal to be real life but some how is real! Like wtf 🤯

[@VermothiaX]

2:04 This Forza Horizon trailer is pretty cool

[@Fincky]

Hahaha

[@i_am_terom4810]

The huge dive at 9:09 is absolutely perfect, I didn't even know that they were this kind of race in France, I fly a little bit, and I can tell that you're doing an amazing job! All my support from France!

[@Fincky]

i_am_Terom that one was from Poland but we did one in France actually it was the first one! Thanks :)

[@hawkkim1974]

this is quite a drone piloting skill. I'm impressed.

[@Fincky]

H. Kim thanks!

[@PixelisedPaul]

On the one hand, the guys drifting are demonstrating the ultimate in car control, but then piloting a quad like this is just as technical (if not more so). Great job!

[@Fincky]

Thanks!

[@tobieeck9676]

It's mostly a cost difference. One day on a drift track costs you 300 euro's easily, even if you havent broken anything.

[@witgangyounotube287]

the sad part is only drone pilots will know how hard it is to follow those cars and get the perfect shots.

[@zmohan69]

@@tobieeck9676 300 euros? Lol way more than that bud. I know this will be in usd. But even grassroots low power drifting costs more than that. Ur looking at 50-200 bucks for track entry. Depending on your power level anywhere from 2 to 10 sets of tires. Pro level guys use a set every 2 laps. A semi pro or amatuer set of tires is 140-250 bucks a pair. So for someome like me who has a 300 hp car. Ill go through 2 ish sets of tires 1 day of drifting. Sometimes more. But bare min accounting that nothing breaks. Your 40 dollars in fuel. 40-100 dollars in fuel towing your vehicle to the event. Tolls if applicable on the way. Food for the day. 300 ish dollars for tires. 150 dollars for track entry. Usually 1 day of drifting is 500-600 minimum for a amateur drifter. A weekend can cost in the thousands.

[@ijhhcfionlkgs]

2:40 he dodged it and kept the cars in frame 😭

[@FutureGuy95]

You know. I thought this was fake at first but then it hit me that it is real. Great job on the flying, and some of those AMAZING angles with the drone. I thought it was a video game at first but nah. Technology is great lol

[@MonkeyMaster1707]

My anxiety peaked watching it

[@MrRayMac1963]

And he kept the subject 100% in the shot. That was awesome.

[@skate_or_dylen2176]

Definitely the best I’ve seen!

[@ma-scalia8629]

I agree with everyone else on the piloting, but is no-one going to mention the quality of this channel! The production value, and quality, and character are top notch!

[@Fincky]

Thanks a lot man! I put a lot of effort in each and every video I do. Thanks a lot for noticing

[@BakeJake]

I thought that was it for the drone! 2:38 good job!

[@Fincky]

Thanks!

[@JacobWildrick]

Your first video is from 2 years ago what an inspiring fpv filming story I’m about to watch every video

[@jmrocks5060]

9:08 makes me want to get into fpv. My mavic seems so lame compared to fpv.

[@Fincky]

Welcome to your next addiction!

Thanks for checking it out mate!

Wow. Great vid mate. Thanks.

[@superdwarf]

I fly a mavic and do what I thought was cool drone footage.......this is crazy.

[@Fincky]

Give FPV a go ;)

[@Gringo_Lingo]

This is impressive no matter which way you look at it from. Your technical knowledge, plus your piloting skills, make for such quality content! I see a bright future for this technology!

[@chriswheatcw]

How is the footage so smooth from the hero 4? Is it using reelsteady?

[@Fincky]

the footage I show is from a Hero 6 + Reelsteady Go except for the footage that’s embedded in the laptop

[@mrzw]

Fincky So they don‘t stabilize it at all for the live broadcast?

[@tuttuti123]

@@mrzw I think they can use gopro's on board digital stabilization. That wouldn't be as smooth as reelsteady but, a live concert show will never be as clean as the studio recording version. It's all about the live situation and energy.

[@julianrodriguez_]

Thanks for taking us behind the scenes on these gigs! Can't say how cool it is from our perspective.... Please keep it up! I would definitely be a Patron for this content man

[@Fincky]

Thanks a lot man! I haven't really felt like making a Patreon yet, I try to find ways to make money without asking my viewers. But there's one way to support me which is an affiliate link on Reelsteady go that give $5 discount and supports my channel

[@julianrodriguez_]

@@Fincky I am currently building my first 5" and cinewhoop (currently just filming surf with my mavic air) and when I finish my build I'll be sure to use your link!

[@Saxofoonreed]

I'm not even remotely into drifting or drone shots, but this is a mesmerizing and mindblowing job. Could you maybe add a tracklist for the music?

[@BisMaxx]

man, that was cool that you guys found the time, in the middle of such hectic program at the track, to take us in and show what it takes to do some #broadcast grade filming and flying! One thing I know is, if Red Bull puts their name behind an event, they go ALL IN. No expense is usually spared and they handle things in the most high quality, professional way possible. Thank you!

[@Fincky]

Thanks! It was definitely a challenge! It’s true! Red Bull is the one of most professional team I’ve ever worked with an absolute pleasure

[@ridethefog]

11:19 my favorite shot!

[@randolfaquino9998]

Dammit!!!!! I could not even fly a drone around a bend!!! Awesome.. It is not the Drone, it is the brain behind the drone!

[@RCnerd74]

GoPro Hero4... was my first drone fpv cam 4 years ago :o) but still delivers great footage! Well done.

[@Fincky]

It's surprisingly does! However these shots in the video were filmed with the Hero 6 and stabilized with Reelsteady GO

[@JakeBlackburnXDC]

This is the dream of mine... to be the guy ripping and giving everyone a different POV in the action spot industries! good for you guys great video.

[@rcdummy]

DJI : hold my beer

[@Fincky]

Well... I feel like we gonna have to hold it for a while cause that's not with the FPV system they have now that they'll compete with this one but I hope they do come up with something interesting like an X7 you can put on a quad and do live with
