My life as an unprofessional drone pilot

Today let's talk about what an unprofessional non-professional FPV drone pilot does in a day, as in what do I do in a day.

everything you say is pure gold, the ramblings, the scripted parts, the cursing. you would be a crazy chill dude to hang with.

[@Krash_fpv]

I've always thought the same

[@grimripperrr]

Many have said this… lol

[@FraCactus]

maybe someone meaned it or will mean it😁. I have had a relateable experience as yours but with diy fpv drones. i think i would have fun to hang out for a fly with you brother.

[@FraCactus]

forget my english i'm an italian pilot

[@propabilityfpv]

“I typically never finish it, but it’s always worth a shot” god that hits home for all of us 😂

[@DanZfpv]

Love it. You are one of the very few FPV pilots who have an actual cohesive voice visually and otherwise. It's hard to do. Shows that you put thought and effort into it. That's a hard thing to consistently do.

[@DanZfpv]

Also, what is the track at the end? I wanna listen to it.

[@grimripperrr]

@@DanZfpv it’s Knocked Loose

[@mdg3d]

I think the Remote ID unit was pulling too many amps away from that motor.

[@grimripperrr]

I actually have 3 remote id modules on it for redundancy and I think it was maybe too much for the plane to handle

[@brandon9689]

I've been wanting to get into FPV. I watch all the pros and see them having fun and it looks awesome. Then I read forum posts and 1 star FC/ESC reviews from frustrated people who's build didn't work and they're miserable and ready to quit.

[@grimripperrr]

Ignore all that stuff, usually those reviews are probably people who soldered something incorrectly or didn't know what they were doing. Also one guy will say "this is the best FC in the world" and another guy will say "I had that FC and it didn't work" but they neglect to tell you that he ran his quad into a brick wall at 60 miles an hour. If you want some real help with what products to buy join my discord. In FPV I learned the best way to get help is through various discord servers. If you don't have a discord, I'd recommend setting up an account. discord.gg/YzBZu5JF

[@Krash_fpv]

Whrn launching wings if ,it doesnt have launch mode, hold wing tip w .75 throttle and swing it like a discus so it launches quick enough not to stall...and you wont clip your fingers w prop

[@grimripperrr]

This had autolaunch but that’s irrelevant because the prop was on backwards lmao

[@deroskar]

I had a bad day. Now i feel better.

[@kaho_fpv]

Just to help, jour prop is upside-down at 5m25s that's probably why your esc caught on fire

[@DreamFlyEcuador]

Some grimRipper logic right there.

[@johowohoj]

So I’m 73 years old and retired… What you describe in this video seems to be pretty close to my life… I used to set an alarm every day to get up and go to work because that’s what I thought I was supposed to do… Now I’m retired and I go to sleep whenever and then get up when I’m done sleeping… I have some coffee and then check my email, and watch some ytube… Then I may check my calendar to see if I’ve promised to do something… I don’t have a drone yet but one will be arriving at my house tomorrow… Usually I’ll just hang out and play my guitar but tomorrow I may go crash my new drone… That might be exciting…Cheers…

[@CDRaff]

Poor little Nano Goblin... if you get the hankering to wing it up again maybe get the files for the Gremlin from Jwmflying14. It was specifically made to be a replacement for the Nano Goblin when RMRC stopped producing it for a bit so uses all the same electronics.

[@grimripperrr]

Yeah I got the nano goblin because RMRC is in Columbus and I was able to pick it up from their warehouse and the owner is a cool dude who’s always down to shoot three shit

[@RustySignalFPV]

I havent set a consistent alarm since I graduated school.

[@grimripperrr]

This is the way

[@winder6]

That was perfect

[@kurtzFPV]

It's important to drink the coffee before pondering existence.

[@power21100]

drink the coffee and smoke the ganja before anything else. especially pondering existence.

[@Bruce-Gisbon]

What’s crazy is, I actually already wanted a shirt

[@PrOpJuNkiE]

@Grim Ripper, this shit was fucking awesome yo! Seriously, you kinda nailed it and I'm not @ 100% yet, if that's a good thing or not .. Verdict's still out on the one...😂 But the content was 💯 on point and hilarious!!

[@RookieRay]

thanks for this video, it helped me feel better about myself :)

[@grimripperrr]

Haha glad I could help

[@rotorismo]

Can't wait for the moment you jump on the fpv tutorial train. This is golden!

[@LilwickedFpv]

Great blog man luv watching your blogs. Keep up the good work.

[@tofemaster]

I enjoyed watching and relating

[@CustomFPV]

Great video homie. Love seeing some of the local spots featured. I think the prop is on backwards on that black wing, try it again! Keep it up!

[@grimripperrr]

It was definitely on backwards so I’m gonna give it another go

[@CustomFPV]

@@grimripperrr awesome, good luck!

[@daves3016]

Im with you on the alarms, its been 10 years since i got up daily with one.

[@blessfpv]

1.50 in bro I do exactly the same your not alone

[@grimripperrr]

It’s a universal truth for FPV pilots

[@Smagsfpv]

I can definitely relate. Great video man 🤘💀

[@fpvkevlar8101]

I do the same s*** with my crossfire receivers VTX's Fc basically all my FPV Electronics thinking that they will work after they sit for a while they Repair themselves lol.

[@grimripperrr]

I’ve had it work one time with a flight controller that I thought was dead, so now I just do it with everything haha

[@rexfpv]

Yeah, I've been building a 7in for the past 5, 6 maybe. Months

[@grimripperrr]

Give it another 3 months and you’ll get there eventually!

[@BlaqkstarFPV]

Hilarious and relatable lol. Great vid man

[@WestFPV]

relatable life nice video Grim haha

[@bowwiz]

watched from Bryan,tx

[@CloneTechDrones-619]

Your dog does not piss and poo inside your house for waking up late? That is one good dog!

[@grimripperrr]

the only time that she's ever pissed inside was when she was at a friend's house watching her while I was away and there was another dog around, which I assume was either her being stressed or marking her territory, also typically she's the one who wakes me up.

[@northerntierfpv8947]

I can relate to this content! Scary!! Actually, very well done! Cheers!

[@grimripperrr]

This is really what FPV is all about

[@y_i_fly6256]

Eh, we all have our good days and our bad days. Great video and yeah maybe good to just stick with drones.

[@grimripperrr]

Well apparently I had the prop on backwards lol

What I love the most in this video that I was never sure if you just have a great distance to yourself and your life or if you are just talking brutal honestly... or both! Anyway I liked watching it altough I am 63 years old and coud be your dad... at least! Greetings from Poland!

[@grimripperrr]

99% accurate, i exaggerated waking up at 10am, it’s more like 9am usually

[@shogunemperor]

[@ExtraFPV]

awesome video. i wish we could see more of your freestyle footage, you should upload some

[@grimripperrr]

I have that on instagram and sometimes I post to KZbin.com/@fpvfreestyle

[@mdk42o74]

i love my dji 03 i love to tree surf and thats why i go dji i see everything. You make a good point that a lot of people over look. Now days i feel all the new fpv systems are good but i come from old fpv back when frsky would go farther than your vidio feed lol.

[@DeNikow]

Is that an AR Wing Pro? Theat plane doesn't want to take off. My friend had one and he hated it because it's awful to launch.

[@grimripperrr]

It will take off but the prop was on backwards haha

[@DrFrantic77]

Welcome bro to FPV life 😅

[@baggszilla]

Sick!

[@FPZzzz]

I would say just about everyone who flies FPV has some sort of ADHD and if they don't, they will if they continue!!!

[@MikeyFPV]

Pls keep making content like this

[@CommanderGoggle]

The moral of the story is: just get good.

[@grimripperrr]

Get Guuuud

[@mileslunar]

Damn this is amazing 😂 and relatable, love it

[@MotoCampAdventure]

I thought ADHD was a prerequisite to being a FPV dronelord.

You got it locked down 😎

Welcome to the team

[@Jydotix]

It looks like the propeller on the black wing is on backwards. Maybe that's one of the issues

This is actually what I finally figured out.
