Vlog Test: 2 Flitefest

Thanks to Rotor Riot I was lucky enough to visit Flitefest for the first time. It's an event I've wanted to go to for a while and I was not disappointed. I had a total blast all long weekend and cannot wait till next year. It really shows what can happen when you use common sense and trust in the people. It totally blew any other RC event out of the water. I hope you enjoy my little snippet of the experience I had there. Enjoy.
Massive thanks to Peter Sripol for allowing the RR guys to play around his massive cargo plane. Please share the love and check out his cool KZbin channel if you like things to blow up and cool inventions.

Omg, this is the sickest thing on KZbin right now!!!! Nice edit Chad!

[@thesoundman22]

Totally agree so much fun to watch.

[@LIFEOFSTUFFEDANIMALS]

The combat was INSANE!!!

[@FliteTest]

Epic flight footage man!

[@nicksmith3431]

I love how you would circle the downed plane as if you were t-bagging a dead body. epic

[@ceecrb1]

I keep seeing all these flitefest vlogs.... each one convinces me more and more that next year I should fly out (from spain) and have a lads only trip, me and my 7 year old.. Think it may be one of the best lad n dad trips ever for me and him.

[@jonipaananen9304]

Oh, I have alredy decided to leave spain for flitefest next year :D

[@ceecrb1]

Find enough spaniards for a charter plane! lol

[@stingersswarm]

Dang buddy!!! Sweet edit.

[@FinalGlideAus]

You need to post the dive bomb footage of the Giant nutball ASAP!!!!

[@bootsinshoes3198]

By far, the best flitefest 2016 video out there. The combat was amazing, and how awesome is it to have a boss that says "just do it" to something you're not supposed to be doing :D

[@FinalGlideAus]

This is why I get in the morning :)

[@borgquads4669]

That is some awesome backwards flying chase cam work, FGA.

[@Juicefpv]

Seeing the Quads vs the planes, reminded me of WW2 where the fighters were attacking the bombers, they just did not stand a chance against these highly maneuverable aircraft. Loved the video.

[@RileyFM]

Gotta say ,meeting you at Flitefest was wicked awesome! And rotor riot made Flitfest that much better!👍🏼

[@emptysoul13]

That was amazing!! Holy hell that looked fun! Your air to air footage is incredible. That took some amazing piloting skill to follow so smoothly, backwards, while turning, with everything going around you both on the ground and in the air. Now the combat was hilarious! Never seen anyone use their quad to take on combat like that before. Damn that had to be a rush. Hell of a way to show how durable the alien is as well as the quality of your build and setup.

[@jhbuxton4]

The combat was phenomenal. Circling the kill for confirmation was a nice touch.

[@jacksontuttle8967]

I absolutely could not stop smiling while watching this. AWSOME! !!!!!!!!

[@mr-onetwo]

Daam all those dogfights!! loved it!!

[@UAVfutures]

Lol Star Wars reference haha

[@TiagoTiagoT]

Watching videos of those demolition derby events always make me feel a little uneasy; but then I remember everyone there probably can afford to fix and replace things many times over, unlike me.

[@jonbbaca5580]

Oh my God, you made flying fpv quad combat with tons of foamy planes look like the funnest, most adrenaline filled thing possible. So epic!

[@walkman1269]

I really loved the part where the music stops when you wreck re-entering the cargo plane but when the props grab air it continues!!! Editing genius!!

[@martinturner5484]

Combat with quads is awesome!

[@wickedneurons]

This was just beautiful. What a thing to witness in person, all that stuff flying around. Wow.

[@supdude9961]

My favorite Flite Fest video so far. : )

[@jimmiedavis920]

WOW that is the Good stuff , thanks to all for the sacrifices and the sharing , way go Chad and FGA .

[@justinmtemplar]

Love you going backwards under Peters aircraft!! awesome skills!

[@SquiglyS3]

I have to stop watching your video's in public, find myself grinning at my screen like a deranged Cheshire cat!! Epic flying and the event looked like a total blast!!

[@AuralAntithesis]

that combat footage is sweet. so many close calls, looked like that bright green wing got away from ya!

[@FinalGlideAus]

It crashed in the end under it's own steam. Just didn't get it in the edit :)

[@sixsixsixhellroad7890]

Thanks guys. I am (still) repeatedly watching this on a daily basis since you released it. Is fun watching (great edit). Must have been awesome to be there.

[@Comaturge]

Carmageddon with planes :D, so much fun.

[@cpthornman]

That combat had be in stitches. That had so be so satisfying.

[@SiggyNowak]

Absolutely joyous. Loved the atmosphere. These vlogs are worth doing Chad. Love them.

[@whollymindless]

I knew it was big but until you flew down the flight line - and probably lost video with how long the flight line was - wow. Congrats to the FliteTest Crew and all involved in an amazing event.

[@pop-popfpv237]

I couldn't stop laughing. Thanks for starting my weekend off right. :) Tequila time!!

[@David__]

Really got to get to Flitefest next year... love the spirit & fun of the event + the crazy carnage capers too :)

[@flyinghobbitfpv4483]

That combat footage was absolutely epic. Now I need to be at FliteFest next year...

[@Greyspacealien]

Dude you are ruthless! Awesome vlog.

[@MrHFPV]

Awesome video Chad! I think we all enjoy getting the "behind the scenes" look at a pro miniquad pilot, and I know for sure everyone digs those awesome FPV shots and crashes. Such a well put together video! Mad props friend! Keep it up!

[@strepto42]

Fully sick maaaayyyyyttte!

[@sprocket374]

Awesome footage Chad! Thanks for sharing. RR FTW!

[@LIFEOFSTUFFEDANIMALS]

That was some of the most awesome air to air footage I have seen in a while...

[@ReubenHorner]

That end homing missile tho. Flat out straight into a plane

[@RCDevotee]

Love the enthusiasm in promoting this great hobby

[@tobiasscharnberg2919]

The combat footage is uber awesome! Thanks for sharing!

[@Znatnhos]

ROFL Stingy got stuck on the giant nutball!! Quad combat... when you bring out the DAL indestructibles. lol

[@vissago]

I like this new trend of "music while in the air, til you eat shit, then just ambient camera sounds, then music again when in flight". I noticed tomsmithfpv doing it a while back, and I like it. It's good fun :D

[@eduardocuesta8003]

WOW, WOW, WOW, WOW, WOOOOOOWWWWW thanks for those 16min of my life chad! You rock =)

[@yfz450manny]

ROFLMFAO!!!!!!!! The kamikaze aerial combat part was THE - FUNNIEST - SHIT - EEEVVVEEEEERRRR!!!!!

[@AaronBlake]

Most confirmed kills award goes to you sir! I saw daughter and myself in the World Record pilot flyby, Thanks!

[@ThePromptWizard2023]

That demolition derby was the funniest fuckin' thing I have seen in a long time. Spinning around the downed plane . . . it's like teabaggin' in Call of Duty. Awesome video!

[@artfreak45]

Great video. I had to watch it twice it was so good. I really like the footage you got of Peter's plane when you were flying backwards in front of it. Really nice job on the flying and the video!!!!

[@thenatedog]

Man, i could watch you take out foamies all day.

[@thenatedog]

Also this is best coverage of combat that i have seen.

[@chadphillips4941]

[@saltvatten]

You literally shredded at that combat competition!

[@tylerwilliams786]

[@blackmennewstyle]

Flitefest really looks amazing :) Nice editing!

[@KooK3]

that, was, INTENSE! awesome job there, Chad.

[@bullproductions]

That combat was seriously savage!

[@losttinwow1]

This was the most fun i ever had watching a video.

[@oscarnilsson4988]

This is probably the best RC video there is out there. Great flying as always Chad!

[@notcranium]

That looked like a fun event!

[@Flyznflyz]

Hey man that was perfect...nail 'em all!!

[@tothehilt]

Awesomly chaotic! ps. Someone has a great ear for music! Well done.

If we could only all be blessed by a strange, shirtless man.

[@Firefly-nz2xq]

These combat scenes are so epic :D Keep it up loving the vlogs

[@1917VIL]

Best FPV edit, ever:) Holy Moly, that was fun to watch! Chad, you must have laser tracking software in your brain!!! Thanks for kicking off my weekend with pure joy!

[@joshtaylor587]

Enjoyed the battle that was great!! I'm just starting out flying myself. Really enjoy all the videos much needed info keep up the good job👍🏻

[@jrkerne]

Awesome video!!!! This was the best tribute to the best event ever!

[@ethanhermsey]

Awesome! The part where you hunt the planes and teabag them :p

[@TheWasch24]

Great VLOG Chad, super entertaining

[@FarmerFpv]

Please do more vlogs, love it!!

[@opnekryan]

EPIC! Best Vlog Ive seen from an FPV pilot yet!

[@staffanlinderoth]

A tough carbon fibre quad vs poor foam fixed wings? That's so unfair I didn't even think it was fun. Even the balloons at the Rotor Riot mall episode had a better chance of fighting back! :)

[@Bliznwow]

Dude the combat was sick!!! You got a new sub.

[@fsarfino]

Loved the aerial combat part of the vid

[@sporkdesigns6344]

Super Awesome man!

[@rochesterfpv9372]

epic!! that is one of the best videos I've seen in a long time!!

[@pabz06]

you guys are awesome! more Vlogs Chad!!

[@Devildust777]

that was to much awesomeness

[@GerbFPV]

Awesome combat editing!

[@2TRICK]

awesome vlog!

[@KyeMacdonald]

Loved it. And now you need to paint a kill count tally on the side of your quad.

[@grigoris_dev8999]

Just AWSOME !!!!!!!!!!!!

[@bama3dr608]

Great job on the editing and music!
