Its a really awesome shot, but its going to be a while before FPV replaces helicopter in many things, if it ever does, and its never going to replace cameras on rails etc. FPV to me seems more of an additional tool for insanely good cinematography in challenging locations than a replacement to anything else...

The sound designer on this, is a hero too, it is not obvious when you watch it, but imagine the amount of drone noise there was in recording, most likely the whole sound you are hearing is not recorded on spot, but rather built from fragment of sound effects and samples.

You would be correct... All the sounds has to be added in or recorded separately or else you would hear the drone over everything.

The sound is from Tomas Slaviks GoPro. No sound design needed.

@@MineServersSKCZ You would hear nothing but the 2.5" props screaming at thousands of RPM's. That's all you hear on a drone. In the final clip you can hear the same whistle blowing at the same pitch all the way down. Also the volume level does not change when he flies up 30' to get the show of the turn. It's not a nock on the sound editor but it's what has to be done. They did a great job matching the peddling and roof sounds.
