Great edit!

[@tooclosetothesun_fpv]

Thank you Ken. Glad to see you pop by :)

[@HillyFPV]

Love the video! Shows the side a lot of pilots don't want to admit happens more often than we'd like. I'm curious about which camera you use. Looking forward to more of your videos!

[@tooclosetothesun_fpv]

Hey, its the low moments that make you appreciate the high ones right? 😂 I believe you only crash when you are pushing you capabilities no matter on what level you are. Unless the electronics have other plans of course 🤣 In this video you see a mix of Session5, Hero8 black and Action2. Atm i have switched to Gopro 11mini for cinematic ( which i am not sure how i feel about) and DJI action 2 for freestyle. Thank you for the comment mate, i am glad you enjoyed the video.

[@BartManDude]

Glad to see that you're a mere human, just like the rest of us ;) I remember a few of those flights from your videos, here I thought you just nailed every flight in one shot. Learning so much from this video :) Awesome video! so entertaining to watch. I also saw a few locations that I don't think I've seen before, you always capture such beautiful places. Thanks for taking the time to share this with us, you're an excellent pilot, and an incredible artist🍻 I can't wait to see what you do in 2024 bro🤜

[@tooclosetothesun_fpv]

wait till you see the pain that goes behind the scenes for my relaxing fpv longshots lol 🤣😂 Some of them take days and many MANY takes to film. The locations that you said you havent seen before are from an FPV movie that i am making, aimed for release on Q1 2024 all in new and stunning locations. I am hoping to release the trailer late January/early February. I am glad you enjoyed the video mate and thanks for the continuous support ❤

[@BartManDude]

[@Xplicit_fpv]

Absolutely awesome good to see some1 making crash compilations because we all damn know if you fly you crash a lot! Bravo!!

[@tooclosetothesun_fpv]

I find sharing my pain and misfortunes with other pilots pretty cathartic 😂🤣. I am glad you enjoyed the video mate, i am committed to keep making these crash compilations at the end of every year 🙃

[@Xplicit_fpv]

@tooclosetothesun_fpv keep up the great work ! Hahaha

@@tooclosetothesun_fpv you're welcome.. 🙏🙏

[@ArmyForLifeeee]

Love this edit! Pretty fun but at the same time quite hurts me as a fpv pilot to see a fpv drone getting smashed😂 Please don’t stop making content🙏 trust me is you keep on going forward with your fpv career and KZbin career, then trust me soon you will get over a million. Anyways thanks for entertaining me today and hope you will keep on in a good mood😁

[@tooclosetothesun_fpv]

I am so happy that my pain and suffering are entertaining you lads 🤣😂 You know what they say, if you are not crashing you are not learning and i feel like i learned alot on my second year 😉. Thank you so much for this comment my friend, its only because of the amazing support that i am able to keep getting up every time i fall. Happy new year and i hope you stick around cause i have some pretty neat things planned for 2024 😶‍🌫

[@ArmyForLifeeee]

I will stick around my friend! And also forgotten to add, you got one off the most beautiful fpv shots I’ve ever seen!

[@tooclosetothesun_fpv]

@@ArmyForLifeeee Which one ?

[@ArmyForLifeeee]

@@tooclosetothesun_fpv The first clip of this video! Sorry I am quite new to your channel but I did watch a few of your videos after this and I got absolutely amazed! Please don’t stop making videos😃

[@tooclosetothesun_fpv]

@@ArmyForLifeeee The shot you are talking about is from my biggest unreleased project yet. It is part of a cinematic FPV project i am currently making, scheduled to release in Q1 2024. Hopefully i ll get the trailer out some time at the end of January - beginning of February. Thank you so much for your amazing comments my friend ❤

[@mimis1924]

Amazing crash video😂 Well done my friend 👏 👍 😀

[@tooclosetothesun_fpv]

Thank you mate 😂

[@Mijo_FPV]

Awesome videos man! What happened on the first one? Looks like a tumble, just like one DJI Avata... at 0:30? Did you fly 7 inch or 5?

[@tooclosetothesun_fpv]

Thank you for the support mate ♥ Regarding the first clip, its with my Chimera7 and the prop just exploded mid air, It broke right on the core and it was brand new with no dents or chips. That was the second time those props exploded on me was the last time i ever used them. I ve since moved to HQ props which seem to handle high stress a lot better. All clips in this video are either with my Chimera7, my Apex5 or my Cinelog35HD.

[@Mijo_FPV]

@@tooclosetothesun_fpv Thanks for the answer. I'm looking to get Chimera7 too. I might switch to HQ props after this tough. Keep ripping man! :)

How did you find the action 2 vs the go pro, in both image quality and durability

[@tooclosetothesun_fpv]

Depends on the Gopro, but if we are talking anything from Hero8 and beyond then Gopro > Action 2 on every single aspect except the weight. Dynamic balance, Image quality, Stabilisation ( which i dont use), Sound and durability are all in favour of the gopro. I would never use the action2 for anything cinematic but the superview and the reduced weight make it superior for my freestyle which is why i am still using it. Side note the gopro session5 still has the better sound when it comes to capturing the motor sound. I hope that was helpful 🙃

[@86Hany]

how did you achieve so smooth style?

[@tooclosetothesun_fpv]

practice, practice, practice 😂 One thing i started doing early on was to stop stabilizing my freestyle flights so i can see my mistakes and where i wasnt smooth enough in order to improve. Stabilization gave me a false sense of skill which i had to grow out off. Now i of course stabilise my cinematic footage in order to achieve this buttery look but my freestyle flights are still not stabilized. Hope that helps

How did drone survive all that?😂

[@tooclosetothesun_fpv]

Almost nothing has survived from the original drone other than the VTX. I just keep replacing the broken parts. Theseus drone if you will 🤣
