What team are you on, FPV or regular drones!?
Both, real pros use the best of both worlds 😉
Regular for now haha I will crash fpv until I get one and try for myself ^^
FPV makes you feel like you are in the drone, you can go fast and not get hurt:) I found tradition drones kinda boring but they do have their place in film making. Great video thanks.
They both have their own distinct use but I’m a fan of gps drones
You both have amazing shots... But I'm not gonna lie... the FPV version.... it just feels like if I was able to fly like Superman... I would fly high and low everywhere I could.. just like an FPV. GREAT VIDEO Peter!
The Mavic gives me National Geographic documentary vibes while the FPV gives me Marvel movie vibes. Both awesome for very different reasons.
This comment was super helpful
It's true about FPV drones, you need a lot of money if you want to be at a high level and race. I was doing FPV drones when they just started to appear, there weren’t even simulators on computers yet. For 1.5 years I spent about 1600-4000 bucks on spare parts for the drone.But to be honest, I flew almost every day.
I love the struggle you og guys put in
regular drones are more expensive than fpv drones. FPV drones can be purchased separately. the more expensive stuff fpv drone. more good. when compared to $ 1000 FPV drone will be comparable to $ 8000 regular drone.
@@axivenn i think you're a bit extreme
for 8k you can buy inspire 2 with x5s and two controllers for the pilot and operator or x7
yes, one of the best parts of FPV is its modularity and the whole process before flying, it's like a lego but with soldering
1k drone would be a pretty good drone but it won't compare to any reasonable 8k drone in terms of video quality and safety, only speed and manoeuverability
also you can build a decent drone just for 200$, so the real price of entering fpv scene is about 500$-700$ (including goggles, transmitter, lipos and spare parts), even cheaper if ur ok with used equipment
but FPS are not capable of shots that many regular drones are capable of, in FPV you're mainly shooting action to feel the action, would it be someone else (like downhill race or some skydiving stuff) or just the drone movement like shots in this video, with regular drones you're shooting action to see the action (which is also important), but they also can shoot scenery, which FPV aren't capable of by its nature
Is it true you need a visual observer for fpv flights anywhere you might want to operate?
@@jhimbow2237 Each country has its own rules. In mine, this is a recommendation and not a law.
I think they all have their beauty, with the regular drone you get those cinematic smooth shots and with the Fpv you get those fast epic shots. In terms of storytelling, I believe they all have those moments when they are used. Thank you guys it's a great video.
first of all that are not regular drones, that are consumer drones and fyi a fpv drone can do the same shots as a consumer can do.
Nothing holds a fvp pilot back from flying slow or high , besides the skill of the pilot. ;)
Well I don’t really know the thing is that you cannot do things these normal drones do with fpv AND NO IT IS NOT ABOUT THE PRICE BECAUSE THE (CONSUMER DRONE) CAN COST OVER $5000 AND IT IS AN “INDUSTRY LEADING PHOTOGRAPHY TOOL” that is what DJI calls it AND IN EVENTS LIKE WEDDING AND OTHER ON STAGE ONES, YOU REALLY CANNOT FLY FPV DRONES. OH AND I REALLY LOVE THE GOPRO 11 BUT NOTHING COMPARES TO THE AWESOME GIMBAL CAMERAS THAT DJI MAKES AND JUST THE OVERALL PACKAGE LIKE THE TRANSMISSION SYSTEM IS OCUSYNC 4.0 WHICH CAN REACH A WAPPING 20 KILOMETERS AND MUCH MORE THAT THEY ARE JUST NOT POSSIBLE WITH AN FPV DRONE THAT YOU WOULD BUILD.
There are still some kinds of footage that you really need an fpv drone for it but that would come at the cost of skills and not really the tools
Oh the price that I mentioned is only about the small series so yeah because the inspire 3 costs between $20000 and $40000 so I respect your skill but fpv cannot really take over these photography cinematic tools
Oh wait did we forget all about flight time
@@raistraw8629 Actually no. An FPV drone has no control over the movement of the cam that records the clip to be processed. True, there are control systems, but they are not at all easy. Of course with a fpv you can go very slow, I let my little ones go around the house slowly without problems. But never bring one type of drone, with its movements created on purpose, closer to another drone that has been created on purpose. We must always respect the two worlds, and share them. Then if someone only owns an FPV drone, they make do with what they have.
After seeing this,I believe FPV gives you that 'superman' flying freedom that regular drones just don't. Way harder to learn but much more exhilarating result during the flight and the footage obtained. As a newbie to drones, I know baby steps are the right way to learn FPV, so I just need to start walking. Thanks - great video.
They're really for capturing different scenarios. I would personally want to bring both an FPV and the Mavic to create the best experience, especially like the Mavic to build suspense and the one-take FPV footage for the action at the chorus or something
Great to see you and Terry hanging out! Your fpv skills have improved soo much! Love the fpv look but agree that the regular drones give you more versatile uses.
I started flying fpv. Never owned a dji drone. I can tell you that the soldering and tinkering was both painful and equally rewarding. Getting something you created in the air is an amazing feeling. Especially when its tuned.
However I definitely can see the appeal for an out of the box plug n play. I flew my friends mavic and it was both easy and rewarding in its own way.
Nothing can beat feeling like an eagle though. Like nothing. 🦅
This video was so much fun to watch. Seeing you two play off each other and trying to outdo each other with epic shots at different perspectives
Solid video man. You and Terry power combo. Love to see friends connecting.
Both!
FPV
- Create those crazy dive shots!! You can’t create that with a regular drone
- Proximity flying. It’s not easier (than regular drone) but you do gain more confidence with FPV
- Have a really hard leaning curve. I have spent 6 months with one now and I still don’t feel confident on certain dives.
Regular drones
- Fire and forget. You can set it to pan or follow you and not worry about it
- Easy to Learn
Each drone has their plus and minus. I had to developed a cheat sheet for shots so I don’t forget the possible shots I can take at a location. Sometimes you get focused on that particular dive and forget there are many other shots you can take. For example you can pan away with FPV (from really close object) and create an awesome better shot than with a regular drone.
Great summary!
Good to see this collab! Thank you both!
Man I hadn't heard of Terry before this video collab. He's awesome, dude brings solid energy to the video, awesome combo!
Peter your collabs are AWESOME! Thats what makes you the GOAT!!!! Keep up the Hella Good Work!
one of the best vids I've seen on TH-cam in a long time.
Loved it guys
It's about sending it down the ladder❤Love both of you guys, keep on crushing it!
I wonder if they can send the ladder over to my little channel aswell...lol.....but seriously though.
Love your FPV videos and totally agree with he ups and downs of the different drone types. I love my FPV drones, but Mavic clips are just classy, clean and very vlog friendly. Comparing FPV to Mavics feel like comparing a hammer to a saw to me.
Great that you put Terry on the Channel! Have been enjoying his content as well :)
Your FPV skills have got quite good. I will have the Avata pretty soon and it will be my first step into the FPV rabbit hole. It would be great to get to your level. Thanks for sharing some details on how you trained and how much work you put into it. Once I have the remote and goggles, I’ll be hitting the flight simulator. You stacked another skill and that’s what I’m hoping to do. Well done, Peter!
Two of the best in the same video.
Så jädra mäktigt 👊🏻🔥
You cheated!! Lol. Man GREAT video and thanks so much for inviting me and your hospitality bro. Keep inspiring!
Hahaha, gotta make that FPV look epic 😂
Dude, you've come SOOOOOOO far! Bravo! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Your fpv skills have come so far already! Keep up the good work man!👏🔥
Old man New to FPV, Really enjoyed the comparison, I do see that all the shots are absolutely great, it is a matter of perspective, as the speed element and altitude make the FPV drone superior over all, good teamwork there too.
The images are absolutely incredible from both drones I already had Mavics but now I don't change it for anything FPV drones give more adrenaline
Vilken natur! 🤩 Snyggt spakat!
Betaflight 4.4 GPS rescue may not be as smooth as DJI RTH but my home built FPV quads ALWAYS land closer to takeoff point than my DJI drones do. It's pretty incredible, actually.
Epic footage from both of you!
Loved this, very entertaining!!
Both have there own form of story telling for sure. Right tool for which job you are on.
Peter and Terry, my new favorite drone sitcom!
Beautiful video. As a new business, starting from scratch with drone work (not sure what specifically, that's how new we are)... We're getting both drone styles. The beauty of DJI, crosses both worlds, just enough. With a Mavic 3 Pro and Mavic 3E, an Avata, a Lumenier QAV-PRO/Cine... The possibilities are endless.
Also FPV drones are more about appreciating the movements as opposed to appreciating the scenery. Yes you can still show off the scenery with FPV but they’re so fast you don’t really get much time to soak it in.
Can definitely slow down if needed. And shoot Mavic style. But that’s not fun lol
Master piece HOT AS HELL FPV WATERFALLS SHOT! Appreciate that man
THIS EPISODE IN SLICK AND INFORMATIVE. Outstanding!
Great shots!! Thank you for this video, guys!!!
The slower it goes the cleaner the shot. You can speed things up where needed later with the editor. The more help you can get the better and the goggles and motion control for DJI might make it super easy to do those tricky circle shots.
Ugh fake sped up footage isn't nearly as good as something filmed at real speed
So proud of you Peter! Putting in the time and effort is paying of! When are we going to iceland and compare komodo vs fx6?
Hahaha, it has to happen bro!
Great comparison. excellent shots from both. I have fpv but still also like the dji and would like one eventually.
That waterfall scene was great. Well done.
Heck yeah Peter your shot was the epic one . Awesome video. Fpv baby ! It rocks🤘🏻
Awesome and very entertaining video! Really great nature shots! Subscribed! 🙂
Hi Peter, nice video as always 👍. what is the antenna that you are using on the goggles 2? does it perform better than the regular antenna?
Excellent Comparison Video and Information. Thank You Peter and Terry.
Both work, hand in glove with one another, for the perfect video. Period!
i own both and i'm glad i do
I absolutely love the adrenaline rush from fpv, but I also think when making a movie, you need both shots. One calm and super stable, and one full of action and thrill. Adapted for a scene specific needs
Im really happy I started fpv at such a young age (was about 3 years ago, im still pretty young) so I think I will be one of the best pilots one day, but my FCs always break after like a month so I can only fly for about 2 months before having to wait about 2-6 months to get enough money to get a new one.
Thats super annoying.
You could have used some epic music for the mavic footage too, not only for the fpv. Kind of makes the fpv look better than it should.
definitely you are getting better and better on FPV
Best purchase you can buy for starting FPV is a simulator compatible controller.. As can practice & crash as often you like .. Also get a analogue system.. & a GoPro later if you like .. Analogue system is cheap.. also sit down when beginning to learn as some people can suffer motion sickness 😀👍☘️.. Great footage from you both
Beautiful cinematic photography from the M3 but heart stopping fighter pilot perspective from the FPV. You’ve both got a new subscriber in me so hopefully you’re both winners 👍
Hey buddy, i love you & thanks for making this video, i really appreciate the type of videos you make & i also want to learn fpv but due lack of funding & resources, i end up watching videos of fpv drones from 2020-2023, i know it's of no use till I get a fpv with my simulator setup, just love watching these videos made by you, thanks for helping us..❤❤❤
Love the collaboration bro keep up the good work
this is like a battle between a slider and a gimbal, steadycam vs handheld. They are all tools to achieve a specific style.
Great video, Peter 🤟❤
Good video flying!! Amazing spot
You two have a good vibe. Nice video this was cool
Thoroughly enjoyable!!
Very cool video. Both are great for differing views/perspectives.
Amazing Video and love this upload 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
I think the biggest difference is the adrenaline. There is no way a gps drone can produce the kind of emotional rush the fpv can but there is no way an fpv can highlight a subject from different perspectives a gps drone can. I recently bought the Avata after a decade of wanting a drone but refrained from doing so simply because the gps drone felt like more work for me and I wanted to enjoy the immersion of flying. Really enjoyed this video Peter. Really highlights the differences.
I really like the FPV footage but some shots from the Mavic feels more relaxing. I would take a mavic and a fpv and mix these two. Btw. great Video!
I’ve been flying drones for 8 years now and haven’t tried FPV yet but definitely want to give it a try. I’m always impressed with the range you can fly. When you fly at a place such as Iceland does flying so close to the ground or through and around objects leave you nerve wracking? The footage you shot in this video, was it straight out of camera or did you add motion blur to it in post?
You both are amazing pilot 😮❤❤❤
It's funny how you tested to see which shot was better but it was almost like the Mavic's shots were amazing establishing shots for the FPV drone shots.. Just taught me equipment really does have a time and place.
Perfect shots! 👍
the difference between these two drones is that fpv drones especially when used in this context capture more of the feeling of nature it's almost like you're a gust of wind just blowing along the scenery and normal drones are capturing the scenery as a hole so you're not a part of the scenery but you're seeing all of it you're getting the grandiose nature of in this case Iceland itself it gives you a feeling for the area without having to be there now if you use just one of these methods you will get fantastic results but if you use both and change them together you can string some of the most visually pleasing cinematics that human technology has given us the privilege to make
Pumped Pete and Tight shirt Terry! My new favorite duo
Love it, great comparison test. Catch up late ✌️
The FPV waterfall reel was very slick.
Hey Peter, for fpv drones i highly recommend a hero 11 mini with the fingers removed, gets the camera lighter. Also if you install gopro labs on the hero11 you get acess to 180mbit and a histogram. (then you dont need to guess of the exposure) Anyways, great video!. just gotten my self a mini 3 pro for some alternative recordings.
I have 2 of those too 👍🏼
😳 man y’all killed it
If you fly camera drones and want to get into FPV, buy the avata pro view combo and fpv controller 2. It costs 29 dollars to replace a broken Avata with care refresh. Then, you can buy true FPV drones with the 03 air unit. The avata can act like a camera drone. Has plenty of camera features. doesn't need a gopro if you aren't a professional doing client work. The fpv controller 2 can be used with the 03 air unit to control any fov drone.
Avata full kit is 1500 dollars and ? Airframe has flaws....
But it probably is the very best start and forward compatible with a sick O3 system
great video and all i need to know in this one thanks!
I would say I prefer the FPV, as I think you can get good results with the action-type shots and smooth shots too. The difficulty level is incredible though 😂 Loved both, but the FPV has a slight edge ❤
I use a Mavic air2s but man , the fpv shots are epic ! ❤
I have air 2s and month a got bought avata, love them both, and for now I always have regular and fpv drone. One downside is that at some point they both are great choices and it is difficult do chose
I love the Avata
I fly through houses every week!
Ahhh no way, I've been following Terry for years now!
That was a fun comparison.
I love FPV the feeling of flying in cloud or amazing location and travelling to remote place is the best feeling. Hiking the peak of mountain a feeling that you cant explain .
The choice of drone is on your style too and yes may come expensive to get started but after its not too bad until you get more drone 😂
I'm stuck working at a 9x5 schedule and my budget is coping too slow before I can get either of these. But it's always been my dream to learn to do this, make a living out of it, and finally quit any desk job so I can spend my time outdoors, traveling and meeting new people.
Get a mini 2 se...
Or get a new job because its no excuse now if you really want it it's out there
Hei peter, as I'm also getting into FPV (because of you) I've read that the patch antennas do give less range than the standards! without hacking the goggles
From a pure "flying enjoyment" perspective, regular drones can't come close to the enjoyment that I get out of FPV. I can go through 10+ packs and not be bored. That said, I love how easy it is to get up in the air with my Mavic 3 and how worry free it is once I'm flying. It's perfect for getting those cinematic establishing shots, whereas FPV is perfect for the action. The Mavic is like driving around in a luxury sedan, and FPV is like tearing up a track in an open wheeler. They're both great for totally different things, and they both have a spot in my fleet.
In my opinion, like every bit of equipment in film making, both have their place for certain situations.
Different tools for different scenarios :) I just upgraded from Air 2s to M3 Pro and shot my first video on Saturday with it (on my channel now 😜). However I could have used your fpv skills on that project in order to make it even more actionfilled, so maybe I need to invite you over to Denmark next year for the Sportscar Event at Jyllandsringen ;)
For being in both sides, I can tell that you touched a lot of true things in the comparison.
I think it also lacks contest. FPV is great for standalone content, like Instagram reels. But for commercial, corporate videos, you can't let the whole line in the final edit and you have to think of shots that go well together. Sometimes FPV does not fit at all sadly.
What I realised after almost two years of FPV is that it is the action cam of drones. It is very specific in terms of where it truely fits and where it belongs, because the camera is dependant of the drone. Where FPV is for me the future, it is for dual op, with one hell of a pilot control the drone with the precision of FPV (allowing flight paths Mavic wouldn't dare to try), and one camera operator. The Inspire is the ultimate drone in that instance in my opinion, there is very little things it can't do !
A-MA-ZING😍
As a professional drone user (Drone Service Italia) I prefer both worlds, not just this or that. And you need to know how to choose with visual accuracy which drone is best. The fpv shots are absolutely dynamic, even using a cinewhoop, but there are times when you use an FPV and others a stabilized DJI, for example, and others where you use cinelifters to have extreme quality, given that you load important loads on this cam and heavy. FPV in very open environments doesn't work, if you go down in altitude, and flying over that narrow river, honestly beautiful yes, but I would prefer to use FPV exclusively on the waterfall, while I'm going towards the waterfall itself and I throw myself over it descent, or while climbing the waterfall. Filming of the river from above only and exclusively with a stabilized DJI. I always really appreciate that beautiful slow movement that makes you observe everything. While an FPV even at low altitude if you had to pass it through a rock gorge. But these are just examples that come to mind. The extremely dynamic flight on the plate never pays off. Unless you get to a place where fpv is needed. I know in Thailand on a long beach, and then getting the FPV into a nice big house. Obviously these are just personal comments. And I agree regardless of whether a person thinks differently.
I really like this video, Peter. Real honest approach. Thank you for that.
Oh, FPV all the way.
The dive 5:39 and and what comes after…. 😮💨 puuure magic !
Such a sick environment!
@@PeterLindgren1 one day I’m going 🥵
Worth every penny 👌🏼
GREAAAT VIDEO!!!!
I think both drones look amazing. I haven't entered the drone market yet but i am looking to. Im thinking I will start off with a regular drone first and later down the road enter the FPV market. I might be an idiot for even trying to compare VR and FPV but people always talked about how realistic VR can be and how a roller coaster VR can make their head hurt but it was nothing special. Im sure high definition footage like FPV goggles might offer will be different but I'll have to look into it. Im just hoping that it will be as surreal as people show it to be.
Cruising the ridges with the FPV is definitely and has it's uses. The mavic gave more detail because it wasn't always racing. It gives more time to look at the details.
you can go slower with an FPV drone
I wish I knew more about editing my videos bc those are some amazing shots.
A1 you guys both are amazing
Gotta have both!!!!
I bought a mavic mini a couple of years ago, and im now moving into fpv, and ive just finished buying everything, i got a dji digital kit for under 1000usd
I got myself the dji fpv it is pretty scary because I do not want to crash but i got it all with V2 goggles and fpv controller 2 3 batteries for only 700€ so I am happy with that. I also have a cinematic drone both very fun
