This episode seems more difficult than the others! I can see Eric looking frustrated in the beginning but I'm glad he was able to carry out the task well in the end! Great job!
Learning to race with a DJI FPV is like learning to juggle using lightbulbs for balls
Ahahahhaa this is the best
@Dravonic One more episode with the DJI (and I think it'll be perfect for it) then I get to compare it to the whole RR lineup!
Or juggling bowling balls since it's so heavy
man hear all these folk talk about this toyvlike its so serious, are you kidding me😂 would love to see what would happen if manuel mode was the only legal way to fly 🤣 almost 80 percent of the planets brians just does not fully developed im guessing. this is so easy, wish folk would stop taking this stuff so seriously, its going to get taking away from us because of of folks taking shit to seriously. most or problems come from this.
I am 60 years old. I was interested in learning FPV, and in these latitudes (I live in a country where it is difficult to buy spare parts for drones) it was impossible to do the complete curve to fly a homemade FPV drone.
The DJI FPV, which allowed me to complete the training, led me to the need to use another flight simulator (not just the DJI one for the DJI FPV). Today I have about 40 hours on VELOCIDRONE and I can decently fly the DJI FPV in manual or acro mode.
respect that! im still struggeling but i´m learning :)
@@TrailerParkShit Thanks, it's a question of persevering!
This is a great series. I have a DJI FPV. I bought it as my first FPV drone because I also film with it. - The haters don't seam to understand that DJI is really helping their sport. I would NEVER have the time to build something. I would never have the time to go through the learning curves. This quad helped me build skills, and now I'm going to get into it seriously. - THAT'S GOOD
No they are not helping the sport. They are buddy fucking new pilots who don't know better for big $$$$ for the price of that piece of shit. You could buy a prebuilt mass produced race drone, crash it and throw it away buy 6 or 7 more up to 10 or mor4e if you count the cost to fix it one time and learn on something more agile and durable. I just built a 3inch 4s quad for under $250 that would fly circles around that thing in a race and I have smashed trees full throttle. Fallen down thru the center of them hitting every branch on the way down. Smashed into picnic tables and guess what. I have gone thru 6 propellers (and one camera lens that vibrated loose and fell out) in 10 months.
And to be honest.. the sport doesn't really need people that are dumb enough to see all these negative comments yet STILL buy one...
@@borgonianevolution i think it's something totally different, fpv freestyle / race quads are not comparable to the DJI Fpv. They are for totally different purposes. The DJI is more for filming but having a bit more control than normal DJI drones while custom quads / for freestyle and racing are more for the whole experience and controlling something nimble and superfast! i like both a lot for their differences
@@emielcors Not if these morons are telling first time users its great to learn on when the KNOW crashing is a huge part of learning. These things are total shite when it comes to durability. I am sorry if EVERY time you crash its going to cost a minimum of $400 and lost time to repair that is insane even if you area pro pilot. They also say its great entry level racer.. which again is bullshit and just completely buddy fucks anyone who buys into that insanely false statement. I would recommend some cheap one time use Chinese toy quad over this POS any day as a first quad. DJI advertising and business plan/ethics on the hobby side is nothing but a massive scam. I wouldn't touch a DJI product if it were handed to me for free other then to hand it back or toss it in the garbage because of their shitty ethics.
Perfectly said 👏
@@borgonianevolution what about the radio and goggles doesn't getting those offset the cost? 250 for your build is great but what about the goggles and radio? Also what if you have no tools or building skill. I'm asking a real question because that is me but I want the cheapest however also the best option to get started. Can you recommend anything to help please.
Dji like yes people, race the dji. Break them. Pay us $300 to replace a $5 plastic arm
Man, this episode hurt my soul a little bit to make.... SO MUCH CARNAGE! Cannot wait for the next one :)
But so fun to watch! Good job!
It was great to watch you progress though. Most of us watching are not racers. There are so many things that racers have forgotten that newbies still need to learn.
@@wernerfourie1596 Thanks for watching Werner!
@@snoopyRC Too true! I learned a lot... And I cannot wait for more!
I love Aviators ambition to try out what the pros are doing,right off the get go! Awesome!
at 7:43 it can be seen that she is not only a very calm and friendly woman, but also someone who puts the words into action and shows how it should be done!
Mako has a pretty good bit of content on her own channel and Instagram as well as interviews she has done on other channels. I think her experience as a pilot and her experience as a teacher makes her perfect for this video.
She would be great teaching drone racing tutorials or just doing drone race documentaries.
Yes indeed I need some one like her to teach me 🎉😊
Keep up with the great work. You've been a great help for me being a beginner
Only *_rich_* (or sponsored) people can afford to race DJI FPV drones! :-)
Exactly
@Sfs newbie To be honest, there's no need to use any other kind of antenna, given how close they were flying.
I mean, I kinda like this series... Because it serves as a *warning* to people not to buy this quad for racing or freestyle unless they have the money to buy a whole bunch of them.
Sad Fact 😏
Exactly cause that drone AIN'T IT🤣🤣🤣🤣.
Thank you for making these Dji FPV videos. They have been very entertaining to watch, especially love the comments section. I run a real estate photography/videography business and started falling in love with flying drones in general and using them for cinematography purposes. Before the Dji FPV existed, I didn't even know the FPV drone world existed! This drone is truly a gateway and brings a whole new audience to this hobby. Perhaps after I crash my Dji FPV I'll start building my own custom CF quad. LOL First time doing acro tomorrow. (but weeks of practice on the sim) Wish me luck.
How did it go?
@@jonhall5446 Hey Jonathan! Thanks for asking! So I flew at a huge overgrown grassy field. Upon lift off in manual mode I totally forgot to adjust my camera angle to something steeper (it was just default at 0 degrees) and I flew it right into the grass (I was trying to take off like FPV style) and was a lawn mower for a second or two. Pretty funny. My thumbs were literally shaking for the next two batteries, did a couple amateur tricks and gave myself lots of buffer room between trees etc. It was a lot of fun. Can't wait to go out again.
@@axioncreative have you broken it yet?
@@FatOnAxis Not yet! Some close calls though. Flew too far sideways exploring and almost lost transmission with low battery, gimped it home. Another one, manual mode nose diving to skim the river water and suddenly the transmission was blurry with no detail in the water so I bailed early... Yup lots of ways to lose this thing. If I try to fly through endless gaps like these pros definitely will be busted long time ago!
@@axioncreative Buy a normal fpv drone dji care refresh is soooo exprensive
Im so glad someone doing this
Mako rules👊
Awesome Drew . 🤘🏻 he did pretty good. Not bad at all. Rotor Riot 4 life brother 😉❤️👍
mako mako mako mako!!!!!!
There's the crash! Congrats Eric! 😜 This is another great lesson though! I enjoyed watching this one!
Racing looks so awesome!
Should have given the poor guy half a chance by giving him an actual racing quad instead of that monstrosity that breaks after a tiny hit.
Yeah, well, this whole series is meant to promote the DJI FPV Drone. Sure, it can go through a race course, but it's not meant for that.
@@oneeyefpv i don’t even know how it’s really meant to be use it’s not a good freetyle quad and definitely not a good race quad...
It's for people with some extra cash who want to have a good time, fly fairly quickly and maybe take some decent Cinematic video. That's it. Why does everyone feel the need to put in their .02 about what they don't like and how what someone else likes is no good. Just piss off already lol. Jfc...
@@alarmingdonkey6813 thank you... Its a gatekeeping Problem in the racing Community.
I think Most of the haters are Just pissed Off cause the DJI FPV does even racing "Not Bad"...
I mean... Yes its a little bit demotivational, when you invested years und Crashes... And then such an Allrounder Crashes in!
I Take Mine Just for smooth surfing... And i Love the weight. 😊
It's turning up the realism. U crash u die.
I love watching his progress! I love this series. And it also gives me some tips to try on a much smaller scale!
Any update on the liftoff micro drone game? I've been super pumped for it for the longest!!!
perfect flying
We do need more racingcontent on Rotor Riot!
This was great!
Yesss Mako 💕
Great video you guys do really honest reviews. Thank you.
Good work Mako!
sweet moves ! looked like a barrel rolls through!!
Interesting video. Might not be the right tool for the job but still happy to see more videos about racing.
Put the poor guy some pucks down for direction.😂 Always love the videos!
Thanks for the insight!, I fly Air 2S, Cessna's etc and this is next level; peace 👌✔
This is what I need to practice more of doing cork screws. Been Getting a lot better
Great to see Mako on this episode.
MAKOOOO
mako is the best!!!! always such great flights!!
Way to go Mako Reaktra 💪💪
That toy cant turn as you want and that racing lady tried to say it.. but Drew was screaming and shouting how good dji fpv toy is perfect for race ;)
he's a fanboy! 😉
Got keep sponsors and investors happy
Dji fpv prob gets them a lot of views
As someone who actually turned wrenches on aircraft (to include drones) in the service (2A6x6), I always laugh at comments like yours. Everything the fpv community flys are toys and additionally, following a TH-cam video on how to build one doesn’t make you an engineer.
@@TheKesma No one gives a shit if you have a scale that makes such a relative comment absurd, you are the exception.
i want to try it!
A woman that can fpv! Love it!
There's a lot more :D But Mako is great!
cool
Nice flying wish I could afford a dji Fpv drone some day I might be able to get one
Same here Gene , I am so scared to spend that type of money for something so Fast and Fragile , I am already spending too much with my Mavics and stuff and now to add this Bad Boy ? I don't think so .
I wish you would incorporate this tutorial series in to the LiftOff game... A large hoop course and instructional courses.
I made this in velocidrone ^^" There's a whole tutorial series with tracks etc. Some of them got moved to liftoff as well ^^"
She is really good 👍🏾 👏
You can use a similar approach to freestyle. Practice a line. Once you have it, add another trick and repeat. By the end of the session you'll have a complete 3 min line packed full of action...
He favors right turns. This leftie track is really hard for him
I love these vids but u guys should do some kind of drop from your quads
I appreciate all the dji fpv drone content you put out. Gets me inspired to get out and fly. I know it’s not the greatest flying drone but seeing you push it to its max is inspiring.
It wasn't my first choice, but I traded my Mavic 2 pro for the DJI FPV. I don't have experience with a proper FPV yet, but between it and simulators it does seem a little funky to fly. Does worry me about breaking an arm though.
It takes time. Just stick with it. Fpv takes a long time to get the hang of
@@OverExposedPixels It hasn't been too bad. I crashed it a few times, luckily nothing has broken. I'm used to using my Qx7s transmitter in simulator, and the DJI controller felt a little different. Still tons of fun though. Got a few hours of flying in this past weekend!
Be happy your getting into this hobby with the tech that’s out now. Do yourself a favor and never freestyle this drone. Build yourself a good quality basher for that.
Siempre sigo viendo RR... tengo una imagen de RR en mi jeep desde hace mucho tiempo.... espero mucho mas de ustedes por favor !!!! que pasa con la gente que sabe volar ? DJI ahora te permite volar sin ninguna habilidad... cual es tu futuro ROTOR RIOT ???
sea cual sea te seguiré apoyando...
Good😉😉🤙🏻🏁🏁🏁
Hey Guys cool video , Where I Can buy those gates ?
Where's Vanover?! 🤷🏻♂️🤔
That I'd watch
He probably just doesn’t like the dji fpv drone...
@@ferdifant_fpv686 guaranteed that's a fact
@@ferdifant_fpv686 watch the rotor riot dji fpv review and you’ll answer that for yourself.
@@ferdifant_fpv686 I also have a feeling he did not approve. I don't feel like this video was a win for RR or DJI.
Where do we find your complete series
Do you guys know where I can buy gates like that? Just for practice. Amazon sellin some crap
Build a digital racing drone RR. ,barkwells got all got all the vista,s !
doing some gates, or a very simple course through some trees or poles, is supremely helpful for flying fpv of any kind. even people like me, zero tricks, super silky cinema style, its incredibly valuable to be able to take the quad by the scruff of the neck and force it to go where i want. is not really about becoming a great racer, its about the confidence you get from forcing the quad around a flag. because no matter how sedate the shot your goin for, sometimes you'll clip a branch, or get above a mountain ridge and discover the wind up there is brutal, that racing experience gives you the skill and more importantly the confidence to cope with sudden unexpected things. this course was a bit too hard, start with two gates, then a few more. the corkscrew, to me, is thee most difficult thing to do with a quad.
I'm so glad to hear someone say DCL, instead of Drone Racing League. I love flying in the DCL.
D *R* L is Drone Racing League. D *C* L is Drone Champions League... It's literally right there in the acronym.
heavy drones are SOOOO MUCH FUN!
@@Vousie correct, I forget the "instead of".
I've been flying in DCL for almost a year on the PS4. Check out my TH-cam channel to see me flying.
@@DavidNehlig1980 No, I'm not gonna "check out" your random channel because I don't care for unsolicited advertising.
I love to see some dcl (drone champions league) pilots ngl!
I fly DCL on the PS4 and love it. So glad to hear them mention DCL. Check out my TH-cam channel to see me flying.
First congrats Eric on going through the course, but I hate to say it, but you broke it. Now 2 months of not flying until you get it back from China. And then you hit a blade of grass and break it again. Now you're waiting again for your quad to get back. If you was practicing flying with a standard 5in quad you could fix it and be back to flying in a hour. And it wouldn't cost much. A DJI FPV Drone would cost more to send it back to China than to fix a slandered quad. I think it's great that Eric is doing great, but he has a sense of flying. I would love to see this test using someone who has never had flown anything before.
Hopefully soon I'll be flying something a bit more durable :)
Bom dia
Passando para prestigiar aquele super like ✌
I like how the drone broke its casing and arm hitting a post. Ooof.
What rates do you use ?
Well if Shawn made it it's epic but I don't wanna help set it up again lol.
I think you guys hype the dji fpv drone up more than it's worth.
Yes thats true
It's a DJI sponsored series. I think that's exactly what they're supposed to be doing.
@@kobby2g8 yeah sucks because it just clouds new pilots. When I was learning about fpv I watched alot of rotor riot and took alot of their recommendations. I know they have sponsors to keep happy but their being total sellouts acting like this is a good quad for a beginner.
I really enjoyed the stuff with the DJI fpv drone but please do more real fpv drone content
Never gonna happen. Dji owns them now. They’re puppets at best
@@creationlabsinc.189 and proof is…. See much Shark Byte on this channel? 🤔
Coming soon!
She said Drone C̶h̶a̶m̶p̶i̶o̶n̶s̶ Championship League is a "GLOBAL" racing league. You are welcome.
well.... she said drone championship leauge instead of drone champions league but hey.. close enough lol 😉
I will say, I like DCL. Lots of fun.
@@NaTeYT7 Sure did!🙈 Shhh....Nate. 😉
@@MakoReactra talking about global... can't wait for the China race 🤩👌
@@NaTeYT7 Well, there goes global...this year anyway.
My head's spinning.
DJI FPV is a heavy beast.. Not made for racing...
@sennlich, you've seen the racer4 for DRL?
I can't believe he didn't crack an arm on that first hit. I had a landing about like that and cracked it. Must be soft grass.
somebody needs some more sim hours XD
I am not rich, I am not Sponsored.
I have questions and try with small incremental steps.
My question today is, why does it seem that your drone footage shows more flat in flat turns, where my DJI-FPV has more roll than yaw, I want my DJI-FPV drone to be more flat in turns.
Can you do a vid on tuning rates just for this drone on the latest update please? :)
Tasty collaborative! Nothin fer nothin, all good....keep bringin in the woman who have this as their own. So many of them are bad asses! Birds are not one gender..dig...the more the genders and races y'all bring into the mix...the more real it gets
Fox force one. Lol
So this is what its like racing a Limo.
Boy that’s an expensive day of flying
How long has Eric been flying?
its not his fault that his roll rates are at like 1.50 you should first tune the rates in acro with him.
Come on guys from R.R. You could have put some Gemfan Hurricane 5236 on there. That quad behaves SO MUCH better without those HORRIBLE dji props
Well done guys and the girl as well. She's great teacher. I like she showed 2 different speeds. Great job. BUT i would lose that DJI FPV and get a real quad that can take the abuse. I get it's a great product but once in Full fpv it seems it gets real. Therefore crash time. She's a pretty quad but ain't got the nuts to crash hard. My 2 cents. This series was perfect for me. I am new and in research mode. Lots of simulator time. So i am good to go. LOL
3rd
Ngl Eric’s flying was giving me some anxiety
I love how everyone just laughs after wrecking the DJI drone. Isn't it nice to have an unlimited supply of sponsored drones when everyone else would mourn the loss of 400$ and being grounded for a month?
if you cant laugh it off when you crash you either got the wrong drone or the wrong hobby man.
@@Tlavite I've crashed and broken lots of FPV drones. That's why I have replacement arms (7$ a piece) and I can usually fly again on the next day. RR does a disservice to their viewers promoting the DJI FPV drone as a drone to do freestyle or even racing with and have fun. Paying lots of money and waiting for DJI service to return your drone is no fun. And for aerial videography businesses the video quality is just not good enough.
@@Gosuminer it’s definitely not a racer lol I have one but I don’t really go crazy freestyle with it save that for my actual quad lol it’s a fun drone to fly and cruise around with but yeah watching this thing try to race is terrible lol the prop wash on it is horrrrrrible
@@Gosuminer you could also break an arm on DJI FPV Drone and fly the next day. They are about 12$ a piece and I've done the change by myself once. Ordered those replacement arms from Aliexpress. Paying the amount of money DJI asks for repair and also wait so many time is just crazy.
@@Gosuminer I must disagree... RR does *DJI* a disservice by making these videos that demonstrate exactly why these drones are terrible racing/freestyle drones. 😂
(Despite the fact that DJI has (stupidly) sponsored RR to do exactly this.)
I Race mine around my property at 60 +
Cops love me guys 😆
Eric should Motor Boat those sweater puppies....
What
IRL, this dude would be churning through $$$. $700 here, $700 there.
Seriously!
watching this makes me think of how hilarious it is that people will complain that a 4s 2500kv 5inch with a 75% throttle is not a racing drone, this is a cinema drone its even worse lol
😜🤘🏼
That's Drew's brother or what
I watch every single RR video and always will. But man this guy is a bad listener lol
I probably am :/
@@aviator 😂
Why?
This
Where Vanover
well nowadays (drone tune) footage isnt that important when everyone is using realsteady 🤣🤣
imagine having a camera that has realsteady support
Real question, has the FAA been harassing anyone that has been flying recreational? I remember there were new bs rules last year, but I haven't been hearing much about them since then. The FAA has been one of the only barriers to buying a drone for me. Its been hard to gauge this issue since I don't know anyone personally in the hobby.
The faa has been leaving us alone this year. You really should get a drone and start flying. (Just not the dji fpv drone. Get an i flight nazgul and a t12 and have fun.
Still impressed with these dji fpv, but surely not for racing, its a different tool for content creator or commercial drone pilots..
he needs a full size remote. you can't pinch a small gaming style remote. they really are for thumbers
Or do what me and my dad do. Build racing drones with all same functions of the dji fpv race drone for a quarter of the price and you can customize your drone to what you want it to do and make it as big heavy or light as you want and can even 3d print bodies and shells for it so it looks like a flying racing machine and it costs 110 dollars for a 115 mph race drone fov with stabilizers and same high def digital fpv camera as this drone. Drone racing with a high quality drone doesn't have to be expensive the ones we have built do 115 mph and ppl who never flown a drone with all stabilizers on and anti collision on can go through gates at 80 mph and fly like a pro drone pilot for first time ever with some simple.instruction on how the controls work as in sticks I told four ppl which way you move the sticks for drone to move forward back up and down and they was able to fly wide open in 5 minutes with a 115 dollar drone we built
So hard to watch this dude fly hurts my brain lol great episode though you'll get it
I feel you... And I'm the one flying! I need to fly a LOT more.
@@aviator I'm sorry man it's not easy to fly my dad's been flying 4 years and he is still in auto level lol but once you learn how it's so awesome keep at it man
bro i feel like i could do as good an ive never flown fpv.i can almost bet on it
Bet
I bet you feel sick after 15 mins LMAO
If that crasch was with a real FPV-quad you might have to do an easy prop change.
How many DJI ones have you gone through in this series?
Please do more normal content!
Got do what sponsors tell them to lmao
I think we're at 4 dead
I think he is focusing on getting through the one gate and not thinking about the next gate.
indeed
could have used a old beat up drone instead
If i crash, i die.
I thought his name was Drib?
Drib is bird backwards. Just his YT name.
@@fpfree8821 good to know. thanka
