I give production value on this video a 1 😂 it's not too late to re-upload it! Add your audio back in for the last video, and move that dang cursor! Other than being overly critical, I actually really enjoyed this format of video and would love to watch more and more of these. Maybe with 2 constant judges and then a "guest" judge every so often

[@hrmny_]

it's really unfortunate, they got nice cameras, a nice environment, but could use some lavalier microphones and a good editor

[@vvmadbullvv]

THISSSSS

[@vvmadbullvv]

The cursor and the loss of audio on the 3rd one killed my inside. 😅

[@memefpv]

the end is like they didn't even watch it before uploading..

[@dapinchyfpv4219]

Was thinking exactly the same 🤦

[@VISMAFPV]

Thank you so much for the nice words and for watching one of my videos, I love it 😍😍 ps. the nd filter was one step wrong 😅

[@GianmariaVeronese]

Bravo! I think they made some mistakes with distance vs elevation, but that's ok, for me it was clear. BTW this place looks so so similar to Preda Rossa in Valtellina.

[@VISMAFPV]

@@GianmariaVeronese 🤩 grazie mille, the writings on the video concern the altitude at sea level, only in rare cases do I insert the distance... I should insert the acronym "ASL" to avoid confusion

[@maylibu]

3.2km elevation not distance. He started at ~1900m so about 1300m / 4265ft of elevation gain.

[@thisisbhm]

If we simplify this to 2D and a rectangular triangle, and the guy flies further than higher, they might not be that far off by mistake

[@DanishStallion]

Thank you so much for the spotlight & kind words! speechless 🤯🤯 ill see you guys at Rampage! 🐎🐎🐎

[@josephmuise5604]

That mountain trip at beginning was so emotional to me. Stunning piece of art

🤩 thank you buddy!!

I agree though it was the best one

Hell yeah, thanks for the critique my dudes! I appreciate the feedback. 🤌🏼🔥💜

We did say we were going to name our children after you soooooo

[@zuzmw]

yooo super excited to see you here... it woulda been cool to see the through the truck window flip!

[@flapjackfpv]

congrats brother! you killed it my op. most people dont understand what it takes to do what u do how u do it! and the biggest one being cost when you smack trees at that speed. we dont have the kind of bandos it takes to fly like that! skill is skill trees or bandos... you take that skill with you. its 90% about the pilot skill that matters.

[@the_darkside_fpv]

Lumpy and danish were well deserved for this. Both are absolutely killing it.

imagine being on this and then they f up the audio on your take 😄

Great vid and love this style content. Did something change w RR production? The sound in this just seemed a bit off compared to other vids and that cursor arrow... Just curious, great vid fellas.

[@showdownz]

My rating on this Video: Videos Selection: 3 (there could have been more videos, and I've seen some really good pilots putting out video lately) Judging Accuracy: 3 ( the low rating for production bubby gave one of the best mountain dives out there, a 3 or 4 would have been more appropriate) Judge Banter: 4 (both of these judges are fun to watch and do a good job responding to one another, over all good chemistry) Production Value: 3 (Solid basics, lighting, mics, set, etc. 23:47 The PIP for no reason and the silence 27:00 after the video was amateur unfortunately) Video Topic: 4 (a very solid topic with hand picked eye candy for the drone enthusiast. To get a five this would need to be tailored to all audiences) ------------------------------------------------------------------ Over all 17 out of a possible 25 Fun video to watch as always. That's why I watched it all the way through. I hope the judges know I love their videos and know the numbers are just for fun. Remember to thumbs up and ring that bell, and subscribe if you want more great content like this. Fo Sho

[@prottentogo]

I don't think locations should be rated as not everyone has the same possibilities in their area. For instance, some places just don't have bandos at all and office parks are fenced out and basically not the same as yours in America.

[@jeffmorris5452]

I love these videos. I’m a beginner and only have the Avata right now but plan on ordering another fpv from you guys soon.

[@DronePH-2024]

Nice very informative ive learn a lot about FPV thank you👍👍👍

[@Isuckatcod777]

"History stuff" hahahaha

[@CaptainKazi]

Those videos were clutch! I see that Chiwoodfpv stiker sticker!!!

[@cyberdiver6072]

Love these rating vids ❤

[@eliasbucher6218]

Nice Video!! I love this video format.

[@adriansurfing4343]

Let me make a suggestion; If use of space, production, risk, location, etc all reward 5 points each, then difficulty should be worth 10 points as that is the most indicative of a worth-while-watch due to value of video. Case in point, you can have someone that just started flying scoring a good 15-20 points with just the first four values, but only 1 on difficulty due to poor flying skills, netting an overall 16-21 points out of 25. How would a video like that be of any use to anyone to watch really, particularly to a fpv freestyle crowd that base most of their interest on videos on skill level of pilots? A videos rating needs to be more representative of skill value than the remainder other categories which only end up diluting the value of difficulty when it's only worth 5 points with 20 allocated for other non-essential categories. Regardless though, always worth a watch, thanks.

[@drewmanfew4626]

haha "oh this is snow?"

[@fpv_am]

My judgement of them judging: Objectivity of picking up participants whom to judge 2/5 Objectivity of judgements: 4/5 Fun & Humour: 2/5 Dynamics: 3/5 Excitingness: 2/5 You can also judge my judgement. Judge bucket challenge/.

[@burdfamfpv]

Know wonder why the first pilot was a banger look at the bandaids on his thumbs ! That's dedication

[@CaptainColin]

Everyone had some amazing rips. But have to give my 25/25 to Danish Stallion because I know that spot well and it’s risky AF and he destroyed it. He used every inch of the space there and hit gaps and lines I’ve never seen anyone hit there. ❤❤

[@DanishStallion]

Thank you bro! 🤩 😍 🤯

[@the_darkside_fpv]

Don’t know the spot but I know danish well enough that he molested this place. 😂 I remember the bot battles I know how insane he is

[@oswaldgrimmelsworth9774]

Love these videos, but move the dang mouse!

[@hrmny_]

If that's a studio environment, you need to work on the noise in the video, give people the right microphones and do some noise reduction in post for the AC

[@MFD005]

Love these videos. Hope some day I will be in one. JB I have had your freestyle build for a while now. I will say it can take some hit. O and I flew it into a lake and it survived.

[@NevesFPV93]

I just built a quad based on Chimera 7 Pro frame. I just want so bad to make some shots like VISMA did!

[@FlyZoneFpv]

Danish !Neigh!🤘🏻

[@sawyernunley]

great video!

[@DroneViewPoland]

Mountain video was epic 👍👍🚀👌

[@seamieshame]

11:30 please move the pointer !!!

[@pheargoth]

Watching people fly up mountains or over water sends my anxiety into overdrive! It always impresses me though. I rarely fly further than about 900m. 😆

[@JarBowFPV]

I'm not watching another Rotor Riot video till @bubby finds out who Sylvester Stallone is. If I don't see a trick named after Rocky or Rambo in the next month then I'm out for good. 🤣😂

[@redsmokefpv]

Lumpy for the win!

[@FluidityFPV]

14 16 12 for me. nice flights guys

[@propabilityfpv]

Haha I really want to submit one of mine to get torn apart 🤣

[@ElyPenner]

The second video of the mountain flight really brought me back to a few months ago when I flew some epic mountains in Canada. It was my first time ever in such epic locations. (Videos on my channel).

[@codethemonkey]

I think the audio of your commentary is missing during the last video. Can't hear anything

[@Mr.Freestyle.]

Lumpy is a badass pilot 😎 👌

[@eyeflytinkerings]

Uh oh, i fear someone forgot to de-noise the mic track 😲

[@UnlimitedSithLordTCG]

Bubby doesn't know who Sylvester Stallone is??? Lost cool points

[@LWAerialProductions]

Cinematic pilots deserve more credit as they are the majority of the time lost in the shadows that freestyle pilots cast in the community. I personally enjoyed the cinematic footage. Freestyle is a dime a dozen.

[@bradcurnew3626]

You guys should totally do a shoestring budget build off! Using all budget gear for a seemingly impossible amount. Something like $250 goggles, radio, charger and battery. (Doesn't need to be fresh gear, just prove it fits the budget without needing to "bend" the rules at all) It could potentially prove the hobby is accessible. Something to chew on. I'd watch it, I'd love to see Bardwell vs Letsfly on that. High level Theory vs high level practice in essence.

[@Editer38738]

Cheers from Knoxville Tn everyone

[@heim_fpv589]

Hi, is there a place where you can send our videos to participate in this kind of show?

Joshua, Bubby, I would love you to see one of my rips and judge it please. Be honest and I'll take what you'll say as an advice. Thank you. Great video btw!

@VISMAFPV congrats bro!!

[@VISMAFPV]

Grazie simo 🙏🙏😍😍

[@sky-cats]

Would be interesting to submit my and some friends fpv videos from Ukraine when you are carrying 2,5kg cargo and flying to russian armored vehicles at 130-150 kmph :D No spins, no flips, but good dives with lots of heat for a drone and a pilot (risky place - front lines..) :)

[@Otidoesstuff]

The mountain video wasn't about the distance he flew but about the height of where the drone is or am i wrong?

[@filipecarvalho3425]

I don't get why you upload in 2k when everything looks compressed as hell. It is kinda ironic that you are judging production value and then your video doesn't look half as good when you are in a much better location to film from.
