I Tried To Beat The RaceGOW Record... And Failed

[@loudspeaker.fpvlions]

More of these explanatory videos please! Many racers on KZbin just show their DVRs without any explanation, many of them are just pure clickbait. This video is completely different! ❤

[@xgoodvibesx]

Nobody gets into the nerd stuff for racing, it's always appreciated. Thinking about using the throttle to bring the quad in tighter to a turn is not something I've ever done consciously, so that's going to be a great exercise.

[@speedy0_FPV]

i bet a lot of people already mentioned this but, its awesome that you do the nerdy lines stuff, i appreciate that. def keem em coming.

[@runpuppyfpv5744]

"sleep on it" that is the best advice ! I have noticed the same thing you try and try and there is a point were you actually start doing worse but the next day it seems way easier

[@butterflyfpv]

Hey Headsup you did such a good Job with this (and previous) video for the community to explain racing! Very well done! I would like to do that too but my English is too bad. But now someone from the pro racers is doing it and that makes me happy. Keep it up! Your whoop racing videos are perfect!

[@GarethDix]

Hearing your thought process on how you analyze the track and the line other pilots are making was sooooo much more helpful than if you were to just show us how you did it. I learned a lot today!

[@calebthomasralph]

You literally just explained the actual science behind adult neuroplasticity, lol. Andrew Huberman talks about it quite a bit. It requires a stress event, followed by focused practice, followed by rest. "Sleeping on it" is exactly the right thing to do. Great video, cool to see some actual analysis on the RaceGOW track.

[@headsupfpv]

Lol ! I need to watch some of these videos!

[@koba0605]

@@headsupfpvyou’ll be microdosing magic mushrooms in no time! Lol

[@theagent578]

Easily one of the most valuable videos for people learning to race.

[@Noah-u2z]

Yep! Been working on the same thing! Smooth is fast!!!

[@ChainsawFPV]

Some of those time are ridiculously fast!

[@Alfpv65]

I'm on racegow2 too, but not with the same ability to fly 😅... I like your analysis of the track, it's very interresting and helpfull. Very inspiring video, thank you!

[@heartofamericafpv5584]

Great breakdown

[@loufpv1005]

Really great video! Was insightful getting to hear about how you take lines on tinywhoop vs 5 inch (7:00)

[@propabilityfpv]

Awesome, great video dude! Some of those whoop pilots are a different breed! Might have to try this out.

[@headsupfpv]

Do it !

[@andAgainFPV]

This is excellent, thank you for the go fast hints and tips

[@scottmclaughlin1410]

Carrying on the conversation while ripping the track was impressive

[@RECK_Adventures]

RAB and Hyper are also top of the whoop racing game but looks like they aren't doing RaceGOW2 this time. The top 5 are so unreal... My biggest issue is the pauses you mentioned. Can't seem to help it. Great flying! 😃

[@FPV_Cam]

Definitely experience the same thing. And often when I don't pause and hit the line perfectly, my brain stumbles right after since it didn't feel like it made it through the previous gate..

[@RECK_Adventures]

@@FPV_Cam yeah me too 💯

[@FPVSkittles]

Dont forget Proximo, he Tied TDog

[@RECK_Adventures]

@@FPVSkittles wooooooah I didn't know Proximo was THAT fast. Wow good for him. Yeah I'll definitely include him in the top elite pilots then

[@Katz_fpvchannel]

Hope we meet someday. Just realized you and t dog were buddies. I like that guy. I want to be a part of this. Take care

[@TWEECH45]

This is great! I’d also love to see a video on how you approach qualifying

[@headsupfpv]

I can make that happen!

[@VinydFPV]

I heard 533 whoops are like the best in the market...Definitely on my hit list!!!

[@DanielBarrios83]

Great video 🙌🏽

[@GoonzFPV]

So Cool!! as a new racer this is super helpful!! Thanks!

[@istim]

Great video! Would be very cool for you to continue these track analysis and skills development videos.

[@RyanQuellet]

Nice video. Thanks for the tips

[@kestrelfpv4712]

Great tips!! Love this content

[@AliGreenFPV]

Crazy stuff!🔥🔥

[@MystikSquash]

Happy birthday

[@KwadSkwad]

ok this looks sick I've gotta give it a whirl. love the small footprint. what setup are you using/ (prop size/lipos/hardawre setup). I'm assuming you are flying acro not level mode yes? Ah, saw the hardware setup, I think brushless whoop is the only micro class I've never flown!! looks sick!

[@headsupfpv]

They absolutely shred, it’s awesome, they suck to build, but that’s why the five33 build is nice lol!

[@KwadSkwad]

@@headsupfpvsick sick... I'm still flying taranis x9D+ with ACCST and a TBS module.. I need a modern radio if I wanna get something new on ELRS :P Def something I'll get into here sooner than later though, micro brushless whoop.. looks like way too much fun!

[@luv4God]

Nerd stuff is cool ❤❤❤

[@pc2522]

Amazing skills!!! Are you flying in Acro or Angle mode?

[@headsupfpv]

Acro!

[@pc2522]

@headsupfpv this is absolutely insane....I have done my time in sims plus flying for almost a year...but acro indoors is literally impossible...not even considering completing tight laps.

[@cyberbeefpv2810]

love this nerd things

[@dylanmeaney4872]

Do this for track 2 as well 💪

[@headsupfpv]

I will ! Setting it up soon !

[@SigningFPV]

I don’t see whoop part list in description?

[@headsupfpv]

Ugh! It must’ve not posted, I’m on it, but it’s definitely in my previous video about building the best whoop for under $200!

[@Actionmannin]

Do you change your rates for these races? Angle strength etc?

[@vonpwnz0r]

Do you change rates for whoops? Or is it 533 for everything that flies?

[@headsupfpv]

I fly the same thing for all my drones!

[@michaelerickson8159]

Your a badass

[@kurtzFPV]

Do you use your 5" rates on whoops too?

[@headsupfpv]

Yes!

[@Monkywings]

Im dizzy. lol

[@FPVGaps]

🤌

[@FPVSkittles]

Great video Evan - Really interesting to see how a top racer attacks a track. Really interesting to see you watch TDOG and Neon and use their flights to help you improve. Your best advice is to take a break and then go back to the track later or the next day; You cant just brute force into a top time. My only advice to you is to run more than 3 laps in a row you get to clip your 3 best so just keep pushing till you crash! I had an AirBNB disaster to deal with the last few days but the Track1 Leaderboard will be on the website in the next day or two. Ill put your time on there as an honorable mention since it was technically after the deadline, but I hope you join in for the later tracks in the season and see where you stack up!

[@SigningFPV]

Yes I love your thinking. It helps!!!

[@EvanBfpv]

I love getting to hear how a pro works out a course. I am curious, are you going to West Coast Throwdown?

[@headsupfpv]

I may try and make it! Always wanted to go

[@flipfpv]

This was great! More, please 😃

[@chrisfpv5706]

nice :)

[@seanpatterson5298]
