OMFG!!! Gutz!!! 🤣🤣🤣 Loved everything about this video!!! Hell of a good job on this Skittles!!! 🤣🤣🤣🔥🔥🔥

[@FPVSkittles]

Thank you Greenhorn! Im glad you liked the edit

[@nectronx]

IGOW4 ... Reeeeady for the 1st Challenge 💪💪💪

[@FPVSkittles]

Let's GOOOOOO

[@ThatBigJeep]

As a new quad pilot coming from planes I'm so happy I got into fpv and found this event when I did

[@beratsbuilds]

I basically did the same. Flew planes for over a decade before starting with FPV. Still enjoy both, but FPV allows you to fly at places and weather conditions you couldn't fly before. Plus planes with FPV are awesome, too 😊

[@FPVSkittles]

Awesome to hear! I hope you enjoy

[@navigator2011]

Dan, do the vertical sticks have to be exactly 152cm apart, or can the sticks be a bit closer together, like if they are sticking up from a PVC RaceGOW track?

[@FPVSkittles]

They just have to be about 152 cm apart. It doesnt have to be exact

[@navigator2011]

@@FPVSkittles Okay, thanks!!!

[@VinM817]

Where can I find the pvc measurements?

[@FPVSkittles]

3/4" PVC - cut the sections to 26.5" for a max size gate/cube

[@avasianfpv]

Dude I’m SO PUMPED🔥

[@FPVSkittles]

Are you sure you can handle this challenge?!

[@beratsbuilds]

Dan, I can't tell you how excited I am for IGOW 4. Let's go and have some fun! 🎉

[@FPVSkittles]

Germany and Canada are tied right now for most pilots from a country (not us)! I hope you enjoy the season!

[@loudmouthfpv]

Ordered my first tiny whoops and analog setup! I started flying FPV last year and skipped over analog and tiny whoops. Excited to try IGOW this year!

[@TeeDubb]

Looks like that cloning technology may have run into some issues with Field Reporter Dan. 🤣

[@FPVSkittles]

Yeah, you start to run into issues when you clone clones.

[@SunspotFPV]

It's super cool that the pre season is more or less training for new pilots. I'm trying to get my wife to compete now.

[@beratsbuilds]

That's an awesome idea!

[@FPVSkittles]

Awesome to hear!

[@SilvanPierce]

Can you PLEASE make a post about what track items are needed for the season? There are so many people asking

[@FPVSkittles]

Nothing is required for the season. You can make all the obstacles out of anything you like. PVC is just recommended because it is very versatile and easy to use.

[@olegvlasov2744]

Please, announce all required items BEFORE the beginning of the season. I have to spend a few days just to find the needed PCV...

[@FPVSkittles]

This is before the season, it's the preseason. The purpose of the preseason is to get players use to the format and ready for the regular season which starts May 18th and also to provide some very basic fpv freestyle training to new pilots. Also, PVC is NOT required. You can make your obstacles out of anything. Watch TuxedoFPV's video, he uses his body as the obstactles.

[@docfr3sh]

awesome trippy spin! looking forward to the competition. thank you for all your hard work and putting everything together ❤ 🔥🔥🔥

[@FPVSkittles]

Thanks! I am glad you liked the flying

[@JohnCuppi]

Whoop whoop! Nice, Dan.

[@FPVSkittles]

Thanks John!

[@clemens666]

you want 1 video per challenge (so 3 videos) or do you want one video which contains all 3 challenges with a max lenght of 60seconds?

[@FPVSkittles]

on vieo with all 3 challenges in the 60 seconds. you can have as many clips/cuts in the video as you like.

[@milosong-weiss5770]

Will the challenges be written up on the site? I feel like I’m going to miss something important in future challenges

[@FPVSkittles]

Its written out in the description

[@McLogo76]

Awesome! Happy to try and get as far as possible and learn and improve with IGOW4! 😁😁 Have fun everybody!

[@FPVSkittles]

Good luck this season!

[@badugafpv76]

Nice work Dan!

[@FPVSkittles]

Thanks William!

[@DMarko22]

Haven't been flying for well over a year, my gear is packed away and I don't even know if I have one working whoop. I genuinely believe I would struggle to pass even the pre season 🫡 Good luck with IGOW4, you created something very special.

[@FPVSkittles]

Thanks man, I always have enjoyed your videos and edits.

[@TinyWhoop]

Man I love your videos!! Bravo!!!!

[@FPVSkittles]

Thank you Jesse!

The 4:20 made me spit part of my lunch out 😂😅🎉 to funny

[@brighFive]

What a great guy; so much knowledge.

[@Vandy_fpv]

BIIIIGGGGG TIMMMMEEEEEE

[@FPVSkittles]

haha!

[@schaerweb]

There are actually 3 different modes: ANGLE, ACRO (or AIR), HORIZON. In ANGLE mode the whoop "angle" is determined by the sticks, and the main characteristic is that the whoop angle is limited (is it 30 degrees?, that's why you can't do acrobatics with it). HORIZON mode is like ANGLE, but without the angle limit. This mode is the best for doing LOS (line-of-sight) acrobatics ;). ACRO mode is different than HORIZON and ANGLE, in the way the drone reacts to the sticks. In ACRO, if you move a stick, the whoop will start rotating to that direction continuously, meaning it will stop rotating only if you return the stick to neutral

[@FPVSkittles]

Huh? Did you watch the video?? I explain all this right here 8:25 Angle mode is not limited to 30 deg, you can set at anything up to 85 in betaflight which is what most fast angle racers use. I just went over the two most basic and common flight modes in the video cause it wouldn't really add anything to show stick motions in Horizon since they would be basically the same as angle for this challenge. And actually there are more that just 3 modes that ... you forgot acro trainer mode, 3D mode, NFE race mode aka level race mode, and sever others. The rules state that you are allowed to use any mode beside 3D mode or some kind of mode that uses preprogrammed stick inputs.
