Progress 15 months of Fpv from beginning to present

From kk2 Boards to the naze 32 to the dodo
I put this together. Its a ton of fun little clips Ive made over the course of the 15 months Ive been flying fpv from start to finish. It really shows how much practice and the changes in equipment alone have changed the way I fly .
When I started out I had no real guide to this. Pretty much built a bunch of flying turds til either I found the right stuff or they finally came out with good fc esc ect... Hope you enjoy. sorry for my slack ass editing skills

Dude, randomly stumbled on this while binging drone vids. Me and my girl take our dogs to that same ball park all the time, last year we saw a guy zippin around with a nice ass drone. Had to be you bro, anyway that got me into the hobby and just randomly stumbled on your vid today. Crazy af, Full circle

3:38 That guy standing behind you gave me a pretty creepy idea. What would you do if you out flying, do a flyby of where you're controlling from, and in the camera you see some figure slowly creeping up behind you with something in his hand, or even someone hiding in some bushes just staring at you?

I watched this video a long time ago when I first started the hobby! The slide always amazed me, and now watching it later just makes me smile seeing how far I have came. Thank u for making this video!!!

[@krebszyy]

Thank you for sharing - watching this has given me HOPE! Brilliant skills. Love the bit where you're speeding through the wooden structure. Keep it up. Guess it shows what continous, deliberate practice can do!

[@saganic3631]

I love this video. I've seen it a few times now, and being new to rc, it was probably the deciding factor to put down the toy quads and go fpv. Fly on, buddy.

[@smashface1981]

Superb flying man u used the stunt mode brilliantly i really enjoyed watching this thank you for posting your progress well done

[@thevapinape2999]

Proud of you, my friend. It's amazing how we can pick up on things that seem so weird/foreign, learn it, then dominate with those skills. Keep it up!

[@NationalCrafter]

Watching this was a huge encouragement to me since I just finished building my first racing last week, been flying it quite a bit and still haven't left horizon mode. I got discouraged when plowed into a branch and dropped it about 25 feet, exploding a couple props, but the only real thing I hurt was my pride. I can see I've got a ways to go, and your vid perked me right up. Thanks boss!

[@helloween76]

Dude.... I progressed ( and thought) the same exact way you did! You learn, think your getting great, then learn more, and realize you weren't that great, then learn more, think your awesome, then you have a breakthrough and get even better!.... I love it

[@TurtleBrownFpvou812]

yeah sometimes you let it goto your head lol. last time I impressed myself was in my "the next level " video

[@LorenzoTheFisherman]

than you watch mr steeles vids and cry....lol not being mean

[@helloween76]

It's true... guys like Steele, Chad, and many others are at a much higher level of skill, and art. Honestly I think it's a way for us to express ourselves thru the flying. I admire a lot of pilots

[@TurtleBrownFpvou812]

then you realize some people have jobs families and not enought time to fly free equipment around all day and get paid for it

[@LorenzoTheFisherman]

I spent 20 min tracking this down! By far my favorite FPV video simply bc it motivates me. Im goin out to pratice my flips! L8r.

[@SquirrelSings1]

I forgot to mention that this is the video that inspired me to pick up that quad and try again. Thanks

[@TurtleBrownFpvou812]

John Bearing awesome! it's a rough road in the beginning. the more nervous you are the more you wreck. the more you wreck the more nervous you are

[@Dante3025]

Last week my practice multicopter flew away, partly pilot error, partly radio interference. That was €120 down the drain. I have a Phantom but that flies itself. I have 2 more qauds on order a tiny whoop clone, & a 4" Monster. Im going to be too nervous to fly them. Any advice?

[@Sully365]

set up a failsafe :) buy spare parts :) don't try to hand catch it :)

[@anzaeria]

My advice would be to practise with cheap toy-grade quads that are fully manual. Over four years ago, my first quadcopter was a Syma X1 which I paid about $40 for. I wasn't bad as a beginner but I lost it to a fly away only after a week of using it. I then got another X1 which I had for a few weeks but then that one had a fly away too. I then got a third X1 but that had a fly away as well. Over time, I got better at flying and I haven't had a fly away for years. Though of course fly aways can occur for all sorts of different reasons. They can occur when you least expect it.

[@fpvjesus4574]

I first watched this video about a year ago and it was one of the things that inspired me to keep on keeping on. Im glad i did I love this hobby. Great video man its excellent to see your progress

Congrats, this video mate me stay in the hobby. The first few weeks where so tough for me because I just was focused on not smashing in the ground that I almost quitted.

15 months huh? We'll ill do it in a week... Wish me Luck lul

[@randomshittutorials]

If you want to do it in 1 week. Get all the stuff ready and make sure you have everything you need to fly. Then buy a simulator and fly for 4 days NON-STOP. With a drone.similar to yours. The the 5th day carefully learn to do very simple things with the real drone, don't fucking bounce it into anything!!! And you better have spare parts. 6th day do a simple course. Maybe some spins high up in the sky. 7th day.. you practice some more, that evening you'll be intermediate with it. But it requires a full week of dedication, all day.

[@kwak_rc9792]

Love this video. Great to see your skills improve over the months

[@Tvpc1971]

Awesome video. I love watching progression videos especially of a hobby I love. You progressed quickly to angle mode only after a few months. It took me almost 2 yrs. of racing in attitude to feel comfortable to go full time Acro. My problem was getting my Taranis expo set up properly so my controls werent so sensitive. Not only was building a drone and tuning a learning experience, but setting up the controller was, and is, still an ongoing experience.
