I Got a $1,700 FPV Drone to fly my Sony A7S III | iFlight Taurus X8

[@bkxc]

So glad I could be a part of this! Happy to be a model any day!

[@dwsvlogs97]

Bro you did awesome! I'm coming to ur channel now.

[@vivago727]

@So Sexy i'm Sexy not that type of model...

[@baioバイオ]

A collaboration I never expected. I've been subbed to both channels for a long time :D

[@kaskasero]

BKXC is here Amazing!!!

[@hustler4life]

I Watch your KZbin❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥

[@NURKFPV]

Thank you so much for the opportunity to be a part of this! You're killing it with that big bird!

[@tommasozucol4160]

sorry for bothering but what build were you flying that komodo? it looked so clean

[@RichieLumantaRL]

Mr. Nurk film maker and pro fpv freestyle 🙌🙌

[@mikehunt2667]

Hey guys im pretty sure ive stuffed up n bought a gh5 to go on my thicc cinelifter . Is there anyway I can use it , having the image stabilization problem or do I need to sell the Gh5 and buy a blackmagic?

[@matstefanic]

I actually did not skip the sponsor bit of the video this time. GO DYLAN!

[@elevatedmediagroup]

Me neither! Lol I was like “I can watch this hhmmm” keep up the good work guys.

[@cemyildirim9830]

Same :)

[@ChineduVictory]

Dylan is The Ryan Reynolds Of The Potato Family! He'll always be An International Treasure! ❤️ From Nigeria!

[@BharathRaj]

Kari with that eagle eye again!

[@JoshWiniarski]

Best...sponsor segment...ever

[@mando5531]

Your videos have the only sponsor segments I don’t skip through. Love ‘em lol

[@jackbisson9226]

The Story Blocks commercial was the best.

[@pronoe]

Loved the impromptu collab!!! The shots with the go pro were amazing. Unfortunately with the bigger camera it wasn't so great. lots of vibration. It looked much better with the A7S III.

[@ChrisParayno]

the a7s III has cineflow to help with stabilization unlike cannon or other "cinema" cameras.

[@SuperBratan]

@@ChrisParayno what is cineflow? I googled it and found nothing

[@SirMProductions]

@@SuperBratan its called catalyst browse. Its a gyro stabilization programm provided by sony. For this to work IBIS has to be turned off though!

[@SirRelith]

That was the best storyblocks ad I've ever seen. Thank you for gracing my screen.

[@haikyuufanstrytoplayvolley3056]

Dylan still being in character after taking the jello-shot is freaken hilarious

[@JamieMcEwanOfficial]

Your sponsored segments are worth being their own video as well--so good! You and Mango Street are doing it right. :) Loved it!

[@erikanderson7079]

Best storyblocks ad ever

[@PhilEdwardsInc]

7:17 you know it's good when you are rewatching it...

[@BobAndrews69]

The man himself

[@impatrickt]

interesting he mentioned the BGH1 - that would be a sick FVP camera with small MFT lenses.

[@davelonghi8229]

Yeah there are quite a few small wide-angles for MFT

[@NURKFPV]

MFT + FPV is a dream come true with the small lenses.

[@filmcat_youtube]

Good thing Kari was there. She spotted your glasses in the ocean finding a tooth among a bunch of rocks was easy work.

[@Benn_TK]

So sick to see you ripping an a7s3 on a cine too!, those 120fps shots came out buttery smooth!

[@maniruzzamanhemal6190]

Hey man . Good to see you here... Big fan of your works. Man... Love you from Bangladesh..🥰

[@mraw_prime]

There's no problème with the ibis ?

[@BlaqViper]

That was crazy!!! Some of the drone maneuvering had my stomach queasy. To be able to fly with that payload is nuts!

[@DomRodFpv]

An entire FPV vid? Hell yea! Amazing flights despite the battery situation. Jell-O shot commercial and tooth falling out had me geeked!

[@OneManUnmanned]

Wow..Super glad the a7S III made it out alive! I love drones and all, but that camera is quality, and isn't cheap.

[@ryanvesely9758]

Balance your props. Helps tons getting rid of the jello. That with proper dampeners is the key.

[@ChristianCHorton]

Dude, the authenticity in your videos are great! I'm going to start posting videos soon and I always told myself I want to be fruitful and spread knowledge, joy, and bring people who put themself out there to the table and plug them in as I rise and when I make it. You are great sir! Hope to meet & fly with you some day. Have a blessed day!

[@erickalvarado7252]

Just throwing this out there: I would buy that A7S III as long as it’s signed by Dylan. I don’t care about Gene’s signature, I need Dylan to sign it!!!!!

[@billyoung9538]

This is why I almost always save Potato Jet videos till last, they are always the best.

[@Loopedfpv]

Watched you for ages about cameras and things and now with fpv stuffs too damn now it is my go to channel!! Dont miss oneee

[@AaronStoneVLOGS]

Bro I’m DYING at the Jell-O shot. Storyblocks has to love that one. Had to watch it twice. Maybe 3 times. Holy crap 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@BooyaJoe]

Dylan should literally do every ad forever! Awesome.

[@DrumzGalore]

The only channel I actually rewind to the sponsor instead of skipping it..!!!

[@EbonySeraphim]

Cool video. I never understand FPV pilots have so many dead battery issues. Coming from RC heli hobby you should actively manage and understand and use at least 2 of 3 ways to manage your battery in flight, and an additional layer of understanding battery health over time. You should always be knowledgeable and aware of your battery voltage. For LiPo that is 4.2v per cell when full and 3.7 volts per cell when drained. Whether you're flying from 4s to 6s, memorize the voltage numbers for full charge and drained (6s is 25.2v full and 22.2v drained for example) and understand that when you see a sustained (not too loaded) voltage reading at your drained voltage, you are presently drained. If you keep flying past that low voltage, and especially down to 3.3~3.5 volts, that's when you get stuff dropping out of the sky. You should be mentally wrapped up with your flight at 3.8v per cell. Small note here: voltage can show instantaneous drops to below drained while pulling high or any current. A very high current draw (punching out, freestyle) will likely show instantaneous power draw under 3.7v per cell if you're already down to 3.8 or 3.9v per cell "resting." This is expected but it still shouldn't drop to below 3v~3.1v per cell. You should also have an idea of the mAh drainage for your battery. Nothing can really tell you how many mAh is currently in your battery because you never actually drain it to zero (the battery would be on fire if somehow it was). Batteries are operated somewhere at their max mAh capacity and you only actually use about 70%~80% during a flight. So if you have a 5000mAh battery, you aren't draining 5000mAh per flight. You should only be using 3500-4000mAh before your flight is done. And very important here: verify the capacity with a charger and cross check flights by seeing if 3.7 volts per cell ends up happening after 75%-80% mAh consumption. Between those two cross checks, you should almost never be caught with a drone suddenly losing power because of the battery. Except for one last reason: the battery itself is bad and has high IR. Essentially if you have a bad battery, you won't be getting anywhere close to the advertised mAh capacity before voltage drops to empty, and even worse, far lower current draw will cause more extreme voltage sag. Unless you're fine with unexpected drops, or you know when to expect them, or fly gently avoid flying on bad batteries.

[@PeaceTrainUSA-1000]

Best ad ever.

[@Hollywooddronekings]

Oh snap that’s my truck behind Davis van thanks for leaving the license plate out 🤙🏻was super nice meeting you !!!

[@DennisPoulette]

I will watch every ad you guys do if you do it in this style every time.

[@JaYoeNation]

ooh man... my palms sweat when i watch you flying...

[@BobAndrews69]

Knees weak, arms are heavy

[@VeronicaRyanVideos]

I have no clue how I recognized that Hoover Dam Casino lol. Awesome spot to fly! Glad everything was ok!

[@anthonysomelier]

First time watching a video: 70% meet my girlfriend, meet her parents, meet my dog, meet my fan. 30% actual video about the drone. Good Stuff!

[@JCPaine]

This is the first time i ever seen an entire sponsor promotion whit out skiping 'till the end jajajaajjaja. Great work!!

[@bw1tney]

The BEST Storyblocks Ad read ever!!! Dylan, that was awesome

[@chrisbrockhurst]

Dylan could have talked about Storyblocks 8 more times and id of still watched it.

[@yetanotherfilmchannel5766]

Potato Jet is one crazy man

[@Om9rr]

3:38 looking like Yondu from guardians of the Galaxy!!, That's impressive 😄

[@wearethejamess]

this just became the best collab ever! I watch BKXC all the time

[@bszlevi]

best storyblocks ad i ever seen. period.

[@MarcinAdamowicz]

Dylan is such a good actor. I'm serious. I'd love to see him in some action movie.

[@dtj41]

Was totally not expecting the collab with @BKXC, that's awesome! He has some great MTB content

[@ZachShurtz]

I love just watching you learn how to do something new, the process including failures are so interesting! Keep it up Gene! love the videos!

[@IbrahimLucas]

13:00 brooo I was screaming “pull up!” like I was standing right there watching you fly. Almost had a heart attack.

[@NURKFPV]

as soon as I saw the DVR footage instead of the A7 I freaked

[@R8135003]

Brightened up a dull day twenty five miles north of London. Be lucky stay safe.

[@andycahill2972]

Dylan is a trouper just powering through that Jell-O shot like that - easily one of the funniest things I’ve seen this year.

[@dylx1283]

Why did the ad look so professional lol

[@ExpeditionPatrick]

That sponsored segment from Dylan was incredible and I've never laughed so hard at a sponsored segment ever! 🤣

[@kleomenisphotographyfilmma6852]

bkxc and potato jet, its the weirdest crossover episode I've ever seen, hahhaha I love it

[@zimmhone]

That ad spot has me broken 😂

[@mindywilliams1225]

Insane engineering ..... we only dreamed of stuff like this when I was a kid!

[@DamianStefanov]

The only Storyblocks segment I ever watched without skipping:) go Dylan

[@AndrewVanBeekOttawa]

Careful now, some of us are coming here just to see Dillon do the sponsored bits.

[@Chrisreedbeats]

Some of the coolest footage I have seen ever my jaw literally dropped

[@leJosem]

Amazing camera work from Kary 🙌🏼

[@douglaswicker]

Gene breaking a drone and camera and then losing his tooth a second later represents my entire career

[@JamesMushroom]

That was the most hillarious ad for a sponsor !!!! KZbinrs with sponsors , take notes !!!!

[@creatorsjourney6286]

You def have skills flying it, even if you’re crashing sometimes. I don’t have that much money to be wasting on this toys but, props to you, this was pretty awesome. ✊🏼🤙🏼

[@alfonsoPina]

I now like your ad placements as much as your videos. Dude is Hellarious

[@YulaTsheringSherpa]

You are totally ready to fly cinelifters! BMPCC 4K, the New Canon R5 C was totally made for it, the dynamic range is absolutely crucial because flying in bright skies, please do not fly the m50 lol, that camera has too many little limitations for videos. I personally would love to have an fx6 cinelifter! The colors of the rocks from your A7s3 was beautiful!!

[@NowFOff]

Best Story Blocks ad EVER!!

[@ardobkin]

Sponsored segment is not to be skipped!! Great video.

[@Rosh_Travels]

The Dylan commercials are awesome! This was the best one yet!

[@dapolyfpv4004]

Just love Dillon's VOs ... normally I would skip thru sponsor spots.

[@ChrisParayno]

Big boy toys!! Flying gaps like a champ with this like its a 3". Excited to see what things come down the line.

[@NateHarris8]

feel like this is the perfect thing to use the catalyst browse post stabilization for sony

[@LarsBoon]

Best day of my life, I watch Potato Jet & BKXC.

[@ShaneHarderPhoto]

I love Brian’s channel. He has a ton of trail rides all over.

[@d.j.harris2355]

The weaving shot with the GoPro was legit!

[@kalus1019]

Woah! Two of my few favorite youtuber, just awesome Gene convinced me to switch a6400 back then and still saving to get my dual sus bike right now

[@rodrigomacias]

The editing of this channel is on another level

[@chrisjdubs]

I usually skip commercials...I'm glad i didn't this time. Hysterical

[@KianteMarron]

Man I swear everytime Gene gets a new fpv I want to get one. EUGH DARN YOU POTATO JET 🗣

[@idahocartel]

You have progressed flying FPV, congratulations

[@lloydranola]

Unreal collab! So cool this magic happened

[@Fly_High_FPV]

I usually get pissed when vids cut to a commercial, but you kept it fresh 👌

[@AiringAustin]

I saw the title and my gut sank.

[@thegooniverse495]

Damn I need a tooth like that! My chemotherapy knocked 2 teeth clean out lol. Pretty cool to see a random BKXC collab, I got to ride with him in NC in like 2017. Super nice guy!

[@stefanneacsu2501]

Just so you know the jello could be because the camera has a soft mounted sensor, some cameras have that to reduce vibration but is bad for FPV drones

[@MarkBennettCameraCrisis]

I actually prefer Dylan’s commercials to actual movies now.

[@OhanaSingapore]

3:38 dude! Nice catch!

[@petadang]

damn Gene went full ninja mode going down that hill lmao. I've watched this vlog 4 or 5 times already, love the FPV stuff

[@MasterBoxingLLC]

Promo dude is funny . Loved the skit. Hopefully you keep those coming. Great material. 👌👌💯

[@ElyPenner]

I just burned my esc, now I can't fly anymore till parts arrive. Man, waiting takes soooo long. Great video and you're really inspiring me to fly more.

[@NorthCalGamers]

As soon as I saw you got something new. I knew something was going down. You are the quasi Linus.

[@BatteryLife]

Soon 1 Million subscribers. Are you excited or will it be more pressure?

[@creativespace8637]

The fact that Gene just *met* Brian is nuts. What a small word

[@ianyunis3580]

Cameras with ibis don't do well on fpv drones, you need to fly a fixed sensor cam unfortunately. All that jello is because the ibis is bouncing around. Hope that helps!

[@ChrisParayno]

cineflow

[@SamuelJamesVideos]

Can't you lock off the sensor though?

[@zubeyrgun1767]

@@SamuelJamesVideos You can lock in sensor cleaning mode, but i don't know if you can shoot that way.

[@jamietomas1550]

@@zubeyrgun1767 turn off ibis, use catalyst, no in body or lens stabilization. High shutter speed (1/500 or faster, no 180° here). Then it uses data to stabilize. Should work for this use like real steady. I use it for weddings and shoot Sony cameras with no gimbals, no stabilization and get shots that look as smooth as gimble.

[@RussellSpurlock]

@@jamietomas1550 If you turn off Ibis, does it lock the sensor?

Sweet 3 completely different channels I watch working together.

I added longer antennas, a Radix2 and individual 80a escs on my Taurus. Took it down to Seal Beach by the river mouth and flew it over the surfers. It’s a monster. Be sure to set up your GPS in Betaflight/iNav.

[@MattShockley]

Feels like the super bowl now. I’m just here for the funny ads 🤣. Great work everyone!

[@ADHTube]

I’m calm and relaxed with you flying with a GoPro or M50, but when you start going north of 1k, I get all jittery just watching! Glad it turned out 👍🏾

that is technically still a quad since it has 4 legs but makes sense to also call it an ocotcopter
