After the first attempt at formation down this river in very turbulent conditions we managed to get back out on a day where conditions were better, allowing us to fly a lot lower, faster and more stable. Unfortunately for me it was a really cold morning and I was suffering with goggle fogging issues, especially towards the end of each run, preventing me from going as low as i'd have liked. The solo runs are at full throttle but frustratingly there always seems to be something preventing me from getting close to a perfect run, like turbulent air or bad lighting. Hopefully next season I can get closer to that perfect run...
I'm flying the Zcon following Paul with his AtomRC Dolphin. Setup details for both of these planes can be found below. Thanks for watching 👍🏻

Sweet babies, you two have nerves of steel and those planes MOVE. Nice flying, although the artificial horizon blocks some of the best part of the view
Thanks 🙌🏻 And regarding the AHI, I was annoyed with myself as I accidentally had it on. I had switched it off as I don't like using it anymore, I don't need it and it just gets in the way (as you saw here).
@@AdamGdoesFPVSweet! Look forward to even more amazing videos comin'
What a rush Adam.... You're lucky to have that great terrain near you..👍🍻
Thanks 👍 Yeah it's a great location
That all she got!?! 😂 Well done, love these fast runs like this! Wish my flying buddies would fly fast like this more often.
Thanks 😁 it's our favourite type of flying! I'm sure you can encourage them👍🏻
Great flights and a lovely spot for flying. Well done. The 03 air unit signal seems to hold up very well at those low levels which is good news.
Many thanks! Yeah the O3 is doing a great job, especially as I'm not using super high gain antennas on the goggles. It works so well low level that my 1.3g days are numbered.
Very cool flight, I've watched your channel for a while now and one thing I've always liked about your videos is that you post a lot of info about the planes and the components you used.
Thanks :) It makes sense to add a kit list otherwise a lot of people ask 😅
Great location to fly , slow down and cruise that creek 5 ft off the ground
I’ve done that a few times. Not as fun and doesn’t make for a great video to watch 😜
i'm never dissapointed from your flights , as always pure Magic
Thanks for the great feedback 🙌🏻
Man that looks fun. Glad you are out enjoying yourself.
Cheers buddy 😃
Super cool. Im working on my first dolphin now. This is pure inspiration for me!
Enjoy, it's a cool little plane!
Haha, i just got back from a blast in my new car on the twisty lake district backroads listening to this song! are you stalking me? xD
Good tune for fast flying or driving😄
🤘😎🤘Awesomeness
Cheers dude, glad you liked it, I always really enjoy watching your flights! 🤘🏻🔥
Outstanding! You guys always fly so well. I could never even get the nerve to go under the goggles, too scared to stray from LOS.
Honestly buddy los is a thousand times harder than through goggles 👍🤝
Thanks for the great feedback. It's funny because I'd be way more nervous trying to fly this thing LOS if something went wrong with the FPV... I guess it just depends on what you're comfortable with. If you practice FPV with an inexpensive model you'd soon get the confidence up. Cheers
@@AdamGdoesFPV Thank you for the advise, sir. I'll try with my old Timber or FT explorer. Winter in TN will be here soon.
Superb flying!!! As always
Thanks 🙌🏻
This is playing with fire!
😎🤘🏻
good chasing dude
Thanks! It's actually hard work trying to control the chase while also flying super low to the ground.
I love these videos!
Thanks😃
Such an awesome video!!!!
Thanks Chris😁
Amazing. Keep up the good work!
Thanks, more to come 😁 👍🏻
Amazing!!! Great flight!! 🤟🤟
Thanks 😁😁 It was a lot of fun!
Always great content (and speed!) From you Adam! Love then ight on the second run. Cheers!
Much appreciated! It was a lot of fun 😃
That's awesome.
Thanks I appreciate it 😁
That's a good power setup. 55 amps at full throttle for a long time.
It sure is. Can hold full throttle continuously for a minute no problem, I do it almost every flight 😅
still blows my mind the places we can fly now with digital that analog wasn't great. I flew at Forrest hill bridge 3rd tallest bridge in US. If you launch from the top the cell towers and your position now that they closed the parking lot isn't great but Dji just handles it so well. Excited to see what you have next
Really enjoy your videos.
I appreciate that!
Awesome video and epic location.
Thanks for watching and for the comment :)
Awesome!
Thanks 😃 it was a lot of fun!
Awesome flying , amazing location !.
Thanks mate, it really is a good location for it.
That Dolphin though, he was really on it at low level...I kept thinking, all he needs is a micro failsafe and hes done for...Is he using Crossfire...🤔😳😳😏🇬🇧
Yes. We have good LOS where we are standing. Lq never drops too low.
@@pbfpv676 Yes, I know the location, you're flying down a long shallow drop, your stood on top looking down. So, you're running 868mhz Crossfire TBS??..
@EnglishTurbines yes. Its set on dynamic power and I don't think it ever goes above 250mw. Adam runs the same and as long as we're a couple of feet apart there's never a problem.
@@pbfpv676 Yes, I won't go ELRS because why would you..?...I like the TBS stuff, it's properly developed and finished...Mine rarely gets off 25mw too using a proper vertical antenna setup. Quads don't though using horizontals, even then I limit the upper RF power to 250mw...
Yeah he was doing great flying! Like Paul said though, not much chance of us getting a FS on this route. We know how our kit will behave at this location and have full trust in it👍🏻
Mental 😮
Thanks!🤘🏻
Epic!
Thanks😊
This was my first time with dji goggles at this spot after swapping from walksnail. Adam had to take it easy to stay behind me 😂. Amazing place for flying.
How do you compare the two systems?
@rotormasher for low level flying dji is better. I like walksnail too, but flying like this with it was harder. Too much smearing.
@@pbfpv676 thanks, I have DJI o3 just always curious about the other systems from specially from someone that's used both.
Thanks again and great flying 😀
You fly well!
Super flying for first DJI run 👏🏻 I'm sure can both beat these runs next year though💪🏻
for me DJI vs Walksnail is night and day. DJI just works, Walksnail has been painful for me.
HECK YEAH!!!!!!!
Thanks 🙌🏻
Niiiiiiiice.....
Thanks😁
Very nice valley running. Such scenic terrain that seems to go on for a long way, so ideal. Am impressed with the low level video quality throughout. (caught the DJI vs Walksnail reference in comments) Looks like a lot of recycled electrons consumed in the making of this video. This video may have set a record (with multiple 55A runs).
♥😎👍
It's a really nice spot for it, the length is probably about right as running full throttle for more than 1m30s is probably a bit much for the wing... and my nerves 😅 In terms of DJI vs WS... on WS I can't even get to the start of that run at higher altitude without the picture being way worse than analogue. I really had high hopes for it but I just find it so frustrating compared to DJI. DJI is annoying for other reasons, but in terms of it's performance when you're flying, it's so good! I never thought I'd be flying that low with such a high quality image 🥳🤩
Flying that low with this high quality image is truly awesome.
This is so epic!! I prefer this over stabilized footage!
Is this onboard DVR or DVR from the goggles?
For people that are properly into the hobby it’s normally more enjoyable to see DVR with OsD than the cinematic stuff. I like to mix it up between the 2. All of the footage in this video was the recording on the goggles 😎
@@AdamGdoesFPV Wow, the image quality is amazing for DVR
Great video. Where was this flight?
Thanks, this was in Ireland :)
👏👏
😎
Nice fast low level flying.
I have a mini talon that does 150km/h and I just finished building an AR wing pro. I’m hoping it does about 180km/h. NTM 2200kv 2836 and 6x5 prop. It was tail heavy first flight so couldn’t test it properly. Hoping to take it back out again soon.
Thanks for watching :) Good luck with your next test flight, the AR wing is capable of speed for sure! Cheers
I have the same equipment as yours in my new Multiplex Funjet 2; can't wait to fly the maiden as soon as weather permits! (first steps with INAV6).
Can't see the distance from home on your OSD, what is your maximum, and with what DVX power set?
The O3 doesn't have power settings, it's just 'automatic'. The distance is on the top middle of the display. Cheers
Hey Adam would you recommend the mini drak? If not is there a better plane you do recommend?
As per other comment, depends what you want from it and how you will fly.
What is the ORANGE alert bar mean?
It's a bitrate warning on the Goggle2. In my opinion it comes up way too early, I think as soon as you drop below 20mbps. As you can see picture is still perfect when the orange warning appears.
Hi Adam, which wing would you recommend when going with an o3 (overheating issues) but if possible be somewhat stable so I can gyroflow the footage and can at least fly for a short period horizontally 120+kph? doesnt neeed to be 200kph+ but the fast the better so for example I was eyeing with an atomrc dolphin and i think in the 7" prop bigger motor range but it gets quite tricky when no one has ever done that and/or documented.
Maybe something like an AR pro is the easiest to achieve this. Has cooled compartments. Dolphin is a bit more tricky to get cooling to the air unit but completely doable.
If you are confident builder then I’d advise a Ritewing. Cheers
Adam which case do you use which fit the true rc antenna? or would you remove it each flight? I would not like to do it.
With this wing I use the Goggles 2, and I transport them in the V2 goggle bad, fits perfectly with the antennas on. Not a good idea to keep removing the antennas each time as they have a lifespan with the amount of times they can be taken on and off until the connector on the goggles is shot :/ Cheers
Thanks for your videos. I’m having trouble with INAV auto launch on 2 different models. ZOHD DART XL and DIATONE ripper. Auto launch activates when I throw models but it’s not enough power or barely enough to fly. My planes glide to the ground. Something is limiting my throttle. I’m perplexed. I’ve set auto launch idle at 1300 and launch throat 1700. Any advice?
Up the idle throttle and set launch to 2000. If that fails there’s an issue with your selected electronics for the plane
how you know which distance you should go back? i mean signal range and penetration.
You just have to learn these things. You get a feel for your setup and what it can achieve and turn round when it shows signs you’re reaching the limit. Such as the bitrate for video or LQ for control link.
So those Dolphins are pretty decent then?..🤔
Seems it, people love them. Not flown once myself though
Did the bomb blow up the deathstar at the end!😂
😆
How far is 3.0 question marks ? 😋
Km, it's Betaflight compatibility OSD
see, this is the kind of shit that will hasten the clampdowns on FPV. do you really need to be doing 150kmh at 6-8 feet above the ground on land that you do not own...?
see, this is the kind of shit that will hasten the rise of male karens in FPV. do you really need to be angrily commenting on a video that shows FPV flying, on land you don't HAVE TO own, to fly over...?
he's not near any buildings, he's not near any people, he's not being a nuisance to anyone, he's not posing a threat of damage or danger to aircraft/property/persons other than his own equipment. he's out in the countryside, enjoying his hobby.
perhaps you're just jealous you can't fly in places like this, because if you could, you would, but you can't, so you shan't
This is in the middle of nowhere who is going to be offended or endangered by that.
I’m not going to get into an argument about this. Here are a few facts:
1: where I live there is no speed limit for an rc aircraft.
2: flying over this land I am not breaking any laws, it’s not private property.
I guess you might be from somewhere like USA where the rules are a lot stricter.
If this sort of video offends you I’d advise you just don’t watch them.
