GoPro: Behind-the-Scenes with FPV Drone Pilots | GoPro Mountain Games

Professional RC race drone pilots, Jay Christensen + Patrick Conroy took their talents to Vail, Colorado for the GoPro Mountain Games. They traveled to the mountainous landscapes above Vail Village + Lionshead to capture aerial footage of this annual celebration of art, music, + athletes.
These childhood friends started their journey in the cinematography world when they split the cost of their first GoPro over 10 years ago. Today, the duo travels the world with brands, sports teams, + professional athletes to provide a filming perspective that very few creators are capable of matching. Dive in to learn what the career of a pilot looks like, from the creative process to the feeling of being behind the goggles.

This video is AMAZING, crazy shots.... and also WTF was that crazy snow circus with the horse pulling a skier and random flame throwers?!

[@firedchiefpaul]

The horse drawn skier is skijoring, a competition originating in Scandinavia, that I’ve watched in Colorado. Gates, jumps, rings to skewer with a ski pole, etc.

[@Pvandemeent]

The passion you feel when they talk about fpv…just great

[@jordanlmiller]

It’s nearly impossible to put into words what flying FPV feels like, its literally an out of body experience. Great job on the video GoPro, and salute to you awesome FPV pilots! 🤟🏽

[@dkmphotography_co_uk]

The nostalgia of that song kicking in at 5min 20 😂🙌

[@2Real2Deal]

As soon as I heard it I went to the comments to see who else felt that way 😭

[@grey_north9016]

The sound of dreams

[@Honeyhound]

When you went behind the bowling pins I thought you wrecked. Supper sick

[@enrightdigital]

Great story and video! More content like this please.

[@fabreezy_]

I love this so much guys, it’s all about the journey! Well done boys you guys are killing it 🔥🔥🔥

[@stedn.4050]

Fh4 opening, such a vibe

[@pittdog231]

The Bowling Alley shot is really next level.

[@blackmennewstyle]

Far out beautiful ❤ Nothing comes close to the FPV quad experience, that's for sure 🔥🚀

[@wakingdreamfpv]

Love this! GoPro and FPV match made in heaven

[@Curiousity0309]

[@devduttsinh4704]

One of the most epic video i've seen on gopro channel *Any channel

[@YSekiai]

He's an amazing drone pilot! 💫🏁

[@GoPro]

He sure is 🫡

[@kturbo09]

Very cool! Very inspiring.

[@JDH_MUSIC]

Very impressive!

[@RCwithAdam1]

That's where I'm headed! 🤙

[@MadLifeRider]

Woooow!😍

[@himalayanmonk07]

Amazing amazing 😍😍😍😍😍😍

[@SpencerFix]

Would love to see a GoPro FPV camera that could act as the pilots camera and the recording device at the same time. Also what’s with the dji goggles in a GoPro video… gotta get some GoPro FPV goggles!

[@Ashen-yn7jl]

Cool thing in good quality, that's what GoPro is!

[@AwardQueue]

Often overheating and stuck.

[@Ashen-yn7jl]

@@AwardQueue you mean the GoPro camera?

[@AwardQueue]

@@Ashen-yn7jlyeah.

[@Ashen-yn7jl]

@@AwardQueue it's depends on the weather condition and the camera type. It is really hard to make such a small cam that can produce this performance with a 100% weather resistance and durability.

[@user-zt5br8yx6s]

Beautiful✨

[@jeetendrasumra]

What a camera ❤ I wish I could buy it

[@flowstate_link]

It’s an adrenaline rush!

[@2Real2Deal]

5:05 the nostalgia

[@lex6vasques544]

What song is this? AI generated or...?

[@2Real2Deal]

I know it from logging onto Forza Horizon 4 every day during covid but it’s from a lot of other things too

[@lex6vasques544]

Thanks man. Found it. Sounds like the perfect song for almost any cinematic FPV video

[@Shortz4u2]

fh4 opening song

[@111danish111]

It's like a video game.

[@AtortAerials]

Only 2% of pilots can achieve this kind of success….that bowling alley video going viral was key for them.

[@ProdChikara]

2%?? That's not bad odds for this level of success tbh 😂

[@marccretten]

More of this kinda stuff please!! Tired of seeing people surfing or snow boarding .

[@AlexanderMarshallI]

How were you able to fly in Vail?

[@ederplays2788]

What was the drone used in this video?

[@icyhotmike]

How many drones did they crash

[@tecnotravelers]

ja pensaram em fazer um gopro smartphone??

[@planbskater1791]

4:50?? Is that Wilhelm Scream in the song or edit?😂

[@storyhousefilms5367]

Weird. How did that get in there?

[@theodoredesmarais4219]

Its awesome ! I have been a ski instructor and was amazed when I tried the beginner gear, because mine was in the shop, wow : couldn't hardly ski ! What bs that one should start with beginner gear and then go pro ! BS !! Get the best immediately GOPRO and ...... and what ?????? Easy to find a Go Pro camera but i'm having a hell of time finding the drone, headset and controller that is the best for the money , millions of choices , I wish they had included what they use !! Do the build custom drones, ? Also appalled at the astronomical price of doing drone shows, should be 10 times cheaper !

[@AwardQueue]

I got a bit dizziness, while I was Immersed in this video.

[@CHETTEEE]

So cool! But it's funny that they used DJI hardware, because it's the direct competition

[@BreakOutOfTheAlgorithm]

Man I wish I could get off my lazy ass and go start a job like this. Anybody have any advice? 🤔 I have already cleaned my room. 😎

[@The0_du_41]

This video is when the naziiiz of the FAA decided they wanted their cut to use their air. 💸💸

[@MakMor]

forza horizon

[@bevinmore]

The only difference between this and me is money

[@chaunster]

Half this footage was from a dji avata drone camera and not a gopro. Lol

[@patrickconroy42069]

False lol

[@ProdChikara]

Bro no. Avata doesn't have that dynamic range lmao

[@MadMax-ut2id]
