Wow! Two years since I made this video. I really feel like I have come a long way and I hope I have inspired more than a few of you to go out and start flying FPV! Thanks for watching my videos and subscribe if you haven't already for more.

[@ManaGuard]

Lol! Nice Video!

[@tbrinkley112]

Yep this is the video that did it for me!! thanks.

[@dpsbk]

Thanks Man! This was THE video that brought me to this hobby. I watched it over and over again. Happy flying!

[@audiogek]

Same here, watched over and over again, showed my friends. This one together with "FPV Racing - Crash Session!!!" brought me into the hobby. ..and they are still awesome to watch! (although seemingly impossible at the time, now it's all about finding a spot without people) Thanks!

[@shavedapefpv8285]

This was definitely the video that got me interested in FPV quad racing!

[@lebasson]

This is the video that started it all out for me

[@Humboldt710]

I am happy to hear that.

[@lofimusiq]

One year ago I was inspired by this video and poured my life savings into this Hobby. I never looked back! unless i was doing Powerloops. I still find this video one of the most entertaining racing footage to date. Just add music and it would be complete!

[@Humboldt710]

Thank you! It's wonderful to hear stuff like that!

[@rosidahabuchik8786]

After 6 years of this video ...i still watching it...goodjob bro

[@madman1699]

Hammer. Mega Leistung - Loblied auf die Fähigkeiten der Piloten - und der Technik !

[@KrotowX]

Oh yes, look how things changed in last 3 years. At today I'm flying like 3 times faster than these things could :) However in past it was something. Particularly this video convinced me into hobby in great degree. Thanks about that.

[@Humboldt710]

Yes everything has come quite a way since I made this video. Thanks for watching.

[@marcelojaviertwt]

*I THINK THIS IS THE BEST RACE I SEE IN MY LIFE... REALLY!*

[@mclaing4hotmail]

The best FPV drone video on KZbin. So awesome - thanks for posting it and thanks for keeping it raw without any cuts or edits. Totally fantastic.

[@Desatormentado937]

Playstation and xbox are history whit this! Waaaaah! such an emotion!

[@allaboutdrones7931]

People cannot believe how fast drone racing is growing. Channels like your can become very popular.

[@StasIva]

Holy mother of God! How comes that we didn't see, that the future is not near, but already's here! it does really looks like some sci-fi movie.

[@regfeener]

So much more fun then watchin all the acro people seem to be getting in to.. Awesome video.. Great skills..

[@southernfpv983]

Dude, you ran that stop sign, like 8 times. Nice skills. I like it. Great job!

[@sheabutter173]

one of the best FPV videos on youtube ..

[@MysteriousLabyrinth]

This looks like totally wicked fun.

[@davonizdashit]

it is but you have to know what youre doing. its not as easy at it looks at first you have to get the hang of it

[@willd.8040]

Yup. And getting the hang of it means flying for months and months and using a simulator as often as possible. Then maybe you can do what's in this video. Not easy at all. But very fun

[@erikasdarodalykus]

so good with drum n bass in the background

[@Speakerofthehouse2]

Very impressive piloting skills. Feels awesome to watch this in FPV almost like Star Wars.

[@shawntilton]

I live in Happy Camp, Ca. Just a stone throw away. I'm still in the beginning stages of FPV racing. I'm using the Walkera Runner 250 as a starter. I'm looking forward to making new friends who want to race or share stories or ideas. I will be building my first soon. Love watching this video. So freakin fast and looks Jedi.

[@dbpooper7512]

This is awesome. Like a video game, but real. Really stimulating the imagination.

[@travismovchan544]

this s by far one of my favorite FPV videos!!, After watching this i went out and purchaced my first FPV drone I got the STORM upgraded to 4S and threw on the 6045 gemfans. Also picked up the FatSharkHDs, I had to upgrade to a stronger transmitter and better cam. having a blast only wish others around here raced!!

[@Techromanzer]

You, sir are awesome! Nice footage! This hobby will be a success!

[@deanfpv1016]

I'm waiting for my dIY build with fpv giggles, I'm so excited I can't wait. So fun.

[@DougRowan_photography]
