This flight was performed with a visual observer by the name of Nan McClain, whom I should have included in the video footage. If you post First Person View (FPV) videos on the internet, I encourage you to include your visual observer in the some the footage as proof of sufficient Visual Line of Sight (VLOS).
After spending 1.5 years in the Liftoff simulator, there was no reason not to take the leap of faith and try REAL FPV in acro/manual mode for the first time. My good friend Mike was so generous to lend me his DJI FPV to put to the test. After getting past the initial anxious nerves, I quickly understood how important my time in the simulator payed off because the drone flew like a champ, and no crashes on the first flight!

I recently got a DJI FPV too, it’s hard to explain how fun this thing is to fly. Feels like you’re strapped into a rocket. Fun stuff.
Sure is!
I buy this drone too.For me is one of a kind... I'm really happy with this drone.
Great job on your first time Acro. Good presentation on your experience. We felt like we were there with you. This is good first step, now get your own drone and happy flying. 😊
Glad you enjoyed it!
Dude...I flew mine on Manual for the first time, still have attitude limit on, but yeah..the shakes...the nerves...the adrenaline...unreal!! Great video!
Yeah, after some practice, the nerves go away and you get really comfortable flying. Just keep practicing!
The shakes definitely go away. I feel a lot more confident my 4-5th battery in.
Love your enthusiasm brother, and Mike is one hell of a friend. I just started playing liftoff a week ago and am enjoying the DJI FPV drone a lot. And so the journey begins 🕺
Your going to have one hell of a journey!
Smart that you started high up. Cool video! I’ve been flying drones for a while now and when I purchased the DJI FPV, it changed everything. The way I fly and edit, etc. it’s a great drone, I’m never disappointed. As you get better at it, the more enjoyable it will be.
Be safe ✌️😎
Yeah, the more I fly it, more I appreciate it for what it is. Slowly progressing myself closer to the ground and gradually increasing my gimbal tilt. Thanks for watching!
Thanks for the ride.
Never flew a drone before, started with the dji fpv in "n" mode first day I received it with no flight simulator. Haven't crashed yet thankfully. I'm about a week in and flying in "s"mode this drone is fantastic to learn on. I recently adjusted the throttle tension spring manual mode coming soon!
I highly recommend getting into the simulator before you try manual mode. If you adjusted the throttle tension to remove the spring, be careful when you are descending in normal mode. If you leave the throttle below the 0 point, the drone will keep coming down and if you are not paying attention, could end up somewhere where you don't want it. However, removing that tension for manual mode is necessary as your fingers will be much more relaxed on the throttle and you won't have to fight that resistance constantly. Finger fatigue is a really thing!
Double Clicking the Start Stop button on the drone in Manual Mode WILL shut off the engines mid flight. Don't ask how I know lol 😂
@@arobyte Thanks for the heads up. I will definitely not do that! lol
Ya i agree. Don’t fly that fpv without getting at least 20 hours on the sim. You will crash if you dont. Normal mode and sport mode are not the same as Manuel mode
@@bdoggfpv Agreed, and I would add don't view normal and sport mode as a right of passage or progression to manual mode. Stick controls are completely different. Similar to driving an automatic vs. manual car transmission
I love the enthusiasm when flying. I haven’t got the confidence to go into manual mode yet. But this was fun watching.
Get a feel for manual mode in simulator and on your first flight keep the drone high away from obstacles. That way you have plenty room for error. Find yourself a big open field and you'll be just fine
@@jollytime0811 thank you man, yea I been practicing on the simulator and I finally went in manually mode in a big open field, the difference is night and day compared to regular mode
@@Gettheyay0 You my friend have unlocked a new achievement! Congrats!
Looks like fun
Nice! Your time on the sim paid off. I noticed you were not tossing your head around a la Stevie Wonder, which apparently is common with new FPV pilots. I'm right behind you with my Avata and just waiting for better weather here in the Northeast.
Yeah, in the beginning I made intention to ensure I didn't toss my head around. I've been following the weather in the NE and it seems no joke. You'll have a lot to film with that Avata!
@@jollytime0811 Yep. It's really ideal for sneaking around limited places with the much hated motion controller. IMO the motion controller gave me the confidence to get some incredible tight shots. That said, cool acro awaits, lol.
I started out with a baby hawk 2 HD and going into acro was like having intercourse for the first time to feel that rush of excitement and freedom of flight. Once you get away from Mr potato and into a DIY DRONE you'll feel even more excitement of Accomplishment
your so lucky started on digital. im still in analog. but i know the feels flying for the 1st time
I've never tried analog but I don't see the point if already in digital world
Very Nice my Friend, i have make today my first fly in Acro Mode. Learn in Simulator 1 hour 🤣🤣🤣
Keep practicing
Lol thats how I first was when I felt fpv. It’s a unique feeling
Great bro, I'm using dji fpv too, it's amazing From Indonesia 👍
It is great fun!
How did you kill the motors when you landed? I switched to N mode to land but lost control when I brought the sticks down and in to kill the motors.
This is awesome buddy! Nice work - Are those the new FPV goggles that come with the avata or the old ones that come with the 1st gen DJI FPV?
Also, which simulator did you spend you time in? I'm currently in Liftoff!
Last question did you buy a fpv for yourself after this or are you just taking Mikes out all the time 😂
These are the old goggles that come with the DJI FPV. I used Liftoff when I practiced in simulator. I have not bought a FPV yet. Don't have the money currently but Mike lets me fly his and he's cool with as long as I teach him...lol
@@jollytime0811 hahah thanks for the response man - keep up the good work 👊
@@jollytime0811 did you use the goggle and the remote control or the motion controller in SIM?
@@Thejob4life Yes, they are nearly identical, but you'll notice some difference in flight behavior. However, its not significant and if you fly conservatively, you'll be able to adjust fairly quickly
@@Thejob4life I tried both but don't really care for the motion controller. I think people that have never done traditional FPV with regular controller will find the motion controller more intuitive. But if you've done traditional with regular controller, you might get bored with motion controller. That's my opinion.
good♪
Does that emergency stop button work of the bird in inverted>?
It should, I don't think I've tried it. However, I've been in a dive and hit emergency stop button and it stopped. The stop button is very reliable but you do have to account for some braking time
How the heck does everything looks so colorful when you're flying?! When I fly the DJI FPV, everything looks extremely grayed out.
More than likely you have the color profile in D-Cinelike, which is a flat color profile that you need to color grade later. If you don't want it, change it to Normal and your viewfinder will be colorful and saturated
epic! Did you tighten the left joystick for m mode?
I tightened the screw in the back so no resistance in the left joystick
@@jollytime0811 does the door still hover on its own in N or S mode?
Drone*
@@mcsy Yes, but this is not the case with Manual mode.
Good fun isn't it
I haven't flown manual, but I don't understand what's so incredible about it. Can you explain?
More control over flight movement. Gimbal follows tilt of aircraft, making it feel more immersive. I suggest try for yourself and compare to traditional to see how you like it!
It flies better in manual mode, right? Once you fly in manual the other modes feel too restrictive.
Manual mode unlocks all movement restrictions and is most immersive, like your in pilots cockpit. Other modes can feel restricted after that but just depends on what kind of shot you want
I agree. I can't even fly in sport mode.
@@TomsPropertyCare Just keep practicing
Ive been flying manual mode couple of times without crashes, really fun but definitely need to focus a lot., Taking off in manual mode, usually with the goggles not over eyes before gaining enough altitude to not crasch into something nearby. Last time did terrible mistake and got up just in front of sun that was low, and lost all vision of the drone and by panic just crashed hard into my house wall. Hopefully getting it repaired, one engine broke and a bit of one arm broke :/
I have a DJI air 2s but I want to get into FPV drones
How do I get the FPV simulator and do u know if it works with the Air 2s Controller? Thank u
You can get the "Liftoff" simulator from Steam. I'm not sure if it works with Air 2s controller, but it probably could work. I temporarily got an Xbox controller working, but it was not ideal flight physics. Once you know your going to commit, I would get an FPV controller as that's going to give you as close to real life experience as possible.
Thank you so much.
I just try today in manual mode for first time was fun
Awesome, how did you do?
@@jollytime0811 I did not bad for sure take some time to get use to it. I will have to loose up the control now i understand why. Glad they have this panic button😀 will update some video has i get better. Overall good first day.
I did not understand yet how to move the Sticks to move Forward or backwards … with left stick I just managed to fly upwards and downwards
Forward movement will be a combination of throttle (up and down on left stick) and pitch (up and down on right stick), and finding the right balance between two for control and your intended speed. I would recommend lowering your gimbal camera angle to around 15 degrees as a beginner. You'll be able to go slower and work on your control without having to overcompensate with stick inputs.
Hi i am JAY from Hong Kong,
我感覺到你真係飛得好開心,我將會加入fpv嘅大家庭.
love it. but how much？
$1000 for just base combo
I think this is the best DJI by far. Too bad flight time is so poor. Love the aircraft hate the batteries. I hope DJI comes out with a "plus" batt for this amazing drone soon. Praying here.
Battery life is still great compared to traditional FPV. But I will never complain over extra battery life! You can also increase your flight time with learning throttle management
Yeah definitely better than traditional FPV which is usually five or six minutes.
How long did you fly in simulator??
Way too long before real FPV, about 1 year
What Sym?
I'm glad to see that you had such a good time it really does show.
But I really do think you made much to do about nothing I've trained 5 year olds and up to fly the drone on day 1 with everything but manual. No simulator and everyone flies just fine I've recently trained my six-year-old granddaughter and she flies just fine. Now with her I did give her 2 flight sessions in the simulator and that's it. Do to the fact that she's extra silly.
But she did so well I have now bought her a standard indoor outdoor drone that's analog. I've documented her learning curve. It really isn't that hard.
Never used the Sim but been flying ultra careful 👻👻👻 I feel like I would have been more reckless if I us3d the Sim tho lmfao....not bad tho for a 1st man 😎
Wait until you use an aggressive angle on the camera lol changes the flight dynamics for sure!!
@@Th3GhostFPV Yeah, I was at 20 degree angle, but on sim comfortable at 30 degrees, I’ll start increasing it gradually
I'm pretty sure I'm on 33 degrees currently.....settled on that as my default 😎👻
Holly bro its a drone not f1 fighter jet lol
Sure felt like a f1 fighter jet the 1st time I flew lol
Practice low not high, pinch the sticks and tune your rates.
