Why FPV

[@johntester6144]

I'd really like some fpv content, a beginner's guide or something would be great. I've always fancied getting into it but never really have. Glad your channel is getting some real traction, great to see.

[@FunkFPV]

I’m going to look into some all in one sets that includes everything so you can plug it in and go.

[@euphoriaseekers6325]

@@FunkFPV I'd be interested in that too, I'm massive into scale 4x4 RC and always wanted to try a fpv drone.

[@FunkFPV]

@@euphoriaseekers6325 Put a FPV camera on that 4x4 😁

[@codypalm]

@@FunkFPV i personally like to build my own, it helps me understand how it design works and how to improve after a breakdown. but i love the beginners setup video idea, alot of people would love to get into but have no idea where to start. there are assloads of RTF "ready to fly" fpv quads out there, the trouble is finding a "cheap" one that can take a good hit.

[@yoMXTT]

Badass dude. Like the fact you're comfortable enough to post one of your hobbies on the channel. Didn't know you used to do this for so many years! I can only imagine how cool that is man. VR trips me out when I'm sitting down and shit, can't imagine being outside in your car or on a bench with these goggles on flying around fast as hell.. so cool man. Have a great rest of your day!

[@FunkFPV]

For as long as I’ve been doing this I still flinch when I crash into something unexpectedly 😁

[@BadgerMonkey]

Comfortable enough posting one of his hobbies? Where's the shame in flying drones? It's flying drones not fucking My Little Pony dolls for fuck's sake!

[@adhmbcx]

Oh neat. The way youtube is, it really only pushes your shorts to most of us. Didn't think you'd be a fan of drones, but with your setup, I can definitely see the appeal. I bet I'd get crazy motionsick trying to copy you.

[@FunkFPV]

It takes a while to get used to. For the longest time I could only fly sitting down. The secret is keep your head still.

[@adhmbcx]

@@FunkFPV wisdom I will carry with me wherever I can, thanks boss 👍

[@TheWappyOne]

100% support this.. was talking with my kids and starting this up as a hobby with them and tho I've watched you for your shorts I never realized you did this.. get that starting out content up.. you have a viewer here 👍

This guy is like the cool neighbor you wish you had

💯🤘

[@retrotechgames-diyrepair4691]

Many a propeller has died when I was trying to learn how to roll and flip. For any newbies out there, there are options on some parts to install an auto level mode which will keep your quadcopter flat (not hover) when you let go of the controls. I eventually got around to FPV RC cars, but I haven't figured out how to make them more long range yet. That stuff is beyond me, but I'm dying to learn. I would love to see more about your FPV hobbies.

[@darthlogicus]

That is very cool man! Looks like a fun little toy. By all means, please show us the way.

[@ZealousIdeal2000]

You fly really well for having took such a long break

[@FunkFPV]

You should have seen the first 2 batteries 😁

[@matthewskocz5099]

Dude I’m impressed, idk what your end goal is but you do reach a lot of people with some cool stuff, whether you realize it or not. Thanks

[@PRL1290]

Just bought my first drone thanks to this video, you sent me down the massive rabbit hole of FPV, I ordered a Luminer QAV-S Joshua Bardwell edition analog diy kit. Going the ELRS route, found a TX16S MK1 Radio on offer up I might pull the trigger on but haven't decided on goggles yet. It should be here next week so I'll have some time during the holidays to build it and learn.

[@alexisayala4429]

Man I’ve been thinking of getting into this hobby and been talking about it with friends and the facts that you posted this is a sign…my wallet isn’t ready lol

[@FunkFPV]

Do it 👍🏻 😎

[@RCuriousPilot]

You are intelligent, well-spoken, and willing to take the time to explain stuff to us idiots. Please don't stop, your videos are always worth watching (a rarity these days).

[@jackwhite7808]

I love this stuff and want to get into it, but I have far too many hobbies. Thanks for sharing with us, and keep up the great work.

[@Drozey710]

I'm glad I was able to find the channel through shorts. Really enjoy all the content here.

[@MichaelFord]

Because of this video, I am more interested in the hobby. Sharing what you have learned would be great. The shorts are fun. Keep them up. They got me to this video 😀

[@nocatchyname.]

Your channel is amazing, entertaining and informative. IMO, you’d be great with drone related content along the lines of teaching, tutorials, “Getting started”, How to’s, etc. Thanks for inspiring me to jump into FPV Drone flying! Keep doing what you’re doing my guy!

[@mrnobody9821]

I got into FPV in 2017, haven't flown for over 2 years as UK government set stupid laws in place and keepoving goal posts in terms of what needs to be registered or not. I've been enjoying your mechanical and tool content :)

[@laillahilaallah001]

I'm a heli type of guy. But I respect anyone who flys/drives/mans a rc vehicle. Hats off

[@travisdavidson2415]

Couldn't help but smile watching this. Very enjoyable.

[@halfbakednbearded4996]

You should definitely do a beginner build video

[@rayikaikin]

i have been watching you on yt shorts for months now and just noticed you were funkfpv i used to be heavy into fpv and so i scrolled to see where the fpv vids were and this was the first thing to pop up!

[@jollygrapefruit786]

I'm not a handy man person whatsoever I don't know anything about wiring or tools or any of that, but I still watch your shorts and videos because you're just a funny and entertaining guy.

[@FunkFPV]

Thanks 😊

[@S.P.B.222]

Nice, there's more to the comedian than meets the eye 😂👍 Cool vid brother, reading through the comments here was pretty inspiring, you've got a very encouraging group of followers!

[@machstem6390]

One of the best channels on KZbin.

[@Chris-nq9nb]

You might have thought you were sloppy but I was so impressed, and that was before you even did the tricks! I was surprised you were allowed to film at a school, I guess it was the weekend. I'd love an intro to FPV video, maybe a top 5 tips or something.

[@superezbz]

I like your personality so I'm interested in all the different things your channel has to offer.

[@BMAWG1968]

Way late to the party but would definitely watch vids on getting started in FPV Drones.

[@WASTED__POTENTIAL]

Never in a million years.... I've watched several of your tool shorts, and noticed the name. Quadcopters were the first thing that came to mind, but I never would have thought you were into FVP flying based on what I saw in your tool shorts. What's next? Am I gonna discover AvE is into sky diving? Perhaps This Old Tony is a skilled figure skater. It's like I don't even know what world I'm on! NOTHING IS REAL!!!

[@earlebird4262]

Please post some beginner guides. My friend and I would love to get into this together. Mistakes cost twice as much when there's two people trying stuff out. A guide from someone trustworthy like you is priceless.

[@clayman1405]

Crazy how long I been watching your tool shorts and never looked down at your channel name lol. great hobby started out in planes and heli now quads I love the different point of view you get from flying also love the shorts makes me laugh when I need some humor keep up the good work

[@FreedomWarrior247]

love the BS dispelling, your vids have been pleasant and telling, no self sucking or any fluff.

[@lazylabz3188]

Always loved watching drove flights and been interested in getting into it. Would be great to see some ways of getting into it with someone's previous experience and learning more about it

[@bravonecharlie]

hes just a normal dude doing normal things. i love it. cant get enough

[@SMITHII_]

Your shorts got me to watch, but your name got me to stay. I've been into fpv for quite a few years now, and after a year break, I am getting back into it. I enjoy seeing other "pilots" gain a decent size audience, whether for fpv or other content.

[@dougs5990]

I love your comedy and wish you all the success!! My cousin has been trying to get me to take up this hobby.

[@johnnybee6995]

[@noyopacific]

Cool hobby! I watch your short videos. I watched this because I was wondering who this guy is, what’s his story, what makes him tick, that kind of stuff. I know some people on KZbin don’t want to say too much about themselves. Your comic stuff is excellent. Best wishes for your continued success!

[@northernsd3432]

Just started watching your shorts a few weeks ago, this is the first flying video I’ve seen, pretty cool!

Haha, saw a few of your shorts and liked them but then saw FPV in the name and thought yeah, I'm definitely subscribing to this dude 😁

[@Mike-jy6mf]

I like this stuff man, was always into RC hobbies as a kid. Had a bunch of nitro powered and electric RC cars, boats, and planes. Never really messed with drones since they weren't too popular back in the day, but I dig this stuff for sure.

[@spydercolover100]

I wish as many people got into RC planes as much as they got into drones. FPV is so cool on both for different reasons!

[@crustytoenail1110]

Man I never thought of doing this, it looks wicked cool, I'm definitely interested now

[@DJSammy69.]

You have been Judged! Very nice flying skill's even if you are little rusty. Yes to more drone stuff!!

[@TheSphongleface]

I'm happy just being able to see you and hear you talk I pictured you as the clever machinist but I'll let you teach me other things too

[@phatz5330]

As a fellow pilot who has the same gear good ripping my guy!! Its great therapy

[@robertrantane6867]

I picked up on your channel with the hack critiques. Many fit into the short format and I think your drone outtakes will as well. The how to idea would interest me even though I probably won't pursue the activity myself. One critical point, the jerky action of the drone flight got me a little sick and 😵. Thanks
