Just started flying in March of 2017, and now I gots me a GoPro! This is mostly documenting the learning process of getting into the RC flying hobby, so don't expect me to know everything or be very great at anything. Hopefully some of you can find it interesting, whether you're also just starting out or you just have a general interest in flight. Feel free to comment and/or ask any questions, I'll try to answer them to the best of my ability, or at least point you in the direction of what you're looking for.
Much Better Now! (Fixed the Rates)
After the sloppy performance in my test flights I decided to fix the rates to something I can work with a little better. I'm still not sure if I want to soften it up a little around center-stick or if I just want to practice and get used to this, but it's MUCH more comfortable than yesterday! I actually copied the rates that I use in Liftoff, a simulator I like to play, and it feels pretty dang close in real life!
Today is also warmer than yesterday. Still pretty cold, but above freezing. I ended up getting an extra minute of flight time per battery today, so the temperature sure does have an effect. As for the range issues I complained about earlier, it didn't seem all that bad today at m...

Any time I post a rare flight video I always say "I never really fly anymore," and that totally sucks. I really should try to get out there and do it more often, but it's been tough to get motivated because I'm either sick of the same 3 spots or I'm afraid to try anything cool because I might lose/break something due to sketchy video signal. Well, I finally decided to join everybody else and up...

Remember when I used to fly all the time? It was the best. Now I don't have time for crashing and fixing stuff. _MUSIC_ Flying Lotus - "Massage Situation" RUclips - ruclips.net/video/9fzGGbiJags/видео.htmlsi=6o4EIL01061fNq3x Spotify - open.spotify.com/album/6e8YerOUllJMKWYDIope5a?si=zcO_zPPHRGu_sl5Jc3A1ew Amazon - www.amazon.com/Reset-EP-Flying-Lotus/dp/B001GU2W4K

I was watching some of my old flight videos and it bummed me out a little. I guess I don't really fly anymore... Life kinda gets in the way and it's sort of a hassle to get out there and do anything these days. At least I can say I did it at least once this year. While it was a little strange doing it again after so long, I didn't feel like I lost that much skill. I just didn't feel like breaki...

I first played Sekiro years ago on PS4. It was a great time and everything, but some of the bosses were a real struggle for me. Since getting a decent PC I played through it again and was blown away by how much easier deflecting was!(plus it's a smooth 60fps!) Turns out it was the latency of the wireless controller (or PS4) that was making all the timing so difficult. Struggling with the lag th...
Caldera Redemption (Redout 2)
Просмотров 335 месяцев назад
I know this is my 3rd video featuring this track, but I actually like this one and wanted to do it justice by getting a decent time on nightmare difficulty. I also recorded the first 2 at a weird resolution and they're kinda blurry anyway. Not only does the video itself look better, but the racing is much better this time as well! My 1st "best" time was 4:18.942, I beat that in the 2nd video wi...
Redout 2 Update!?!
Просмотров 696 месяцев назад
I was looking for other antigravity racing games because I was bummed that we would never get any more Redout than we already have. Redout 2 is great, and I can play it for years, but it was just shy of perfection and seemed abandoned... Well, now that I've lost all my SRRL skills playing Wipeout and BallisticNG, Redout is back! Not only did they fix a bunch of little things that would sometime...
bNG FPV (BallisticNG)
Просмотров 2936 месяцев назад
In the last video's description I mentioned that the game looked a little odd and small, and that I might try a different camera angle to make it look more like WipEout.(Maybe the far camera is an F-Zero thing? I haven't really played that.) While I do like the closer camera angle, I think I'll keep using the track camera. It reminds me a little more of Redout and I seem to have more success wi...
BallisticNG Is Winning Me Over
Просмотров 967 месяцев назад
When I first tried BallisticNG I was excited to find that it was pretty much Wip3out but with different tracks, even the ships are mostly all there but with some slight changes. The main thing that weirded me out was the speed. I obviously like fast games like WipEout and Redout, but something about the way BallisticNG plays kinda looks like you recorded WipEout and sped up the footage. It look...
I Can't Believe It's Not Wip3out! (BallisticNG)

I've been playing through Wipeout 3 for PS1, mainly for nostalgia's sake, but now that I've been playing so many antigravity racing games I can actually give it a shot for real. While I was taking a little break from that I decided to finally check out BallisticNG, a game I had heard about but never actually looked into. I didn't even need the tutorial because it feels pretty much EXACTLY the s...
I've Missed You, WipEout

Sorry, I don't have a PS5 so this video isn't 60 fps. It's much smoother to play but my old PS4 only records low-res, 30fps video. But this way it looks more... cinematic?(sure.) The only reason I ever played Redout 2 was because my PS4 died and I couldn't play WipEout anymore.(It's a PS exclusive and not for PC, unfortunately.) While Redout 2 is KINDA like WipEout, they are both entirely diffe...
Trial By Fire - Ixion (Redout 2)
Просмотров 427 месяцев назад
I used to think this track was so hard and unforgiving, but it didn't take long for me to start keeping up with, and eventually beating the nightmare AI, even with the "wrong" ship. After that I was pretty much racing myself trying to get better times and prettier looking laps, the AI was just there to motivate me to be more aggressive. My old best time for 2 laps was 5 mins 54 seconds, but wat...
My "Badness" Won't Stop Me (Redout 2)
Просмотров 478 месяцев назад
I used to think that you had to perfectly ace every lap in order to beat the nightmare AI, but apparently that's not the case. I'm not some hardcore gamer, so I like to show that you don't have to be AMAZING in order to win in this game. So far the biggest things holding me back are: -Finishing the 1st lap in 1st place and not breathing for the rest of the race -My absolute refusal to pick a di...
Race to the Leap of Doom (Redout 2)
Просмотров 758 месяцев назад
I had to restart this race a few times until there was at least ONE opponent that didn't crash on the first jump. Sure, I want to win, but if I wanted to race against nobody I would just do practice mode! I ran a decently clean race after that so I didn't see the last remaining guy for very long anyway, but this was the best time I've gotten on this track so far so I decided to keep it. Now tha...
Jumping Back In (Redout 2)

It's been a while since I've played Redout 2, and I was wondering how long it would take to get back to where I left off. I had a couple practice races where I struggled with resolution and controller latency issues, but in the process of fixing that I also fixed the blurriness that's in all the other videos.(turns out "borderless" mode was actually zooming in on a tiny window, lowering resolut...

Climbing the Difficulty Ladder (Redout 2)
the music timed with the drone's movements is awesome! (also would be cool to see how it's built!)
Thanks! Once I crash it hard enough maybe I'll show how to put it back together.
noice
Are you using a action cam ?
Nope. This is the on-board recording from the vtx. Walksnail Avatar V2 only records 1080p 60fps. Not bad for being so small and lightweight. The camera is a Caddx HD Pro.
looks like a fun place to let it rip!
@UKnoMeFPV Actually my 1st time at this place. Not bad for a quick test, I'm sure I could make it more interesting. Thanks!
@ always fun finding new places!
Update good, thumbs up.
nice flight! keep up the good work!
Question mark??!?
Man, summer vacation goes by so fast. Your WRG looks beautiful btw. - A Fellow WRG Enjoyer
Ha, thanks! Even if my flying/driving doesn't always look so good, at least my ship does! :P
Let's hope for the best shall we XD ... nice racing tho =)
Great run! Yeah the speed is a bit wonky to me as well but I think I just need to play it more. My problem is that whenever I wanna play an AG racer I usually just boot up wip3out or pure. NG is a great game though.
Looking good to me. Just need to figure out the pacing of your hypers and use them as often as you can. Though that does introduce another understanding of handling too. Lol
Thanks! I've been saving hypers for straights, but I've noticed that with proper strafing you can easily hang a lot of turns. I need to work on that. I've also noticed that speed can require extra pitch at times, little bumps and dips are much harder on you when you're going really fast.
Happy to see you're still going fast 🖖
Thanks! Been a while, but I guess it takes a long time to totally lose it.
The soundtrack of Redout 2 is a common complaint. The vibes of both WipEout and Redout 1 just can't be beat, but Redout 2's understated/subdued soundtrack lets the tracks and gameplay shine instead. Redout 2 does have highlight examples though, not just from Leonardo. Seashore Burnout, Arcade Rush, Racer's Home being some. Martian Dreams by Zardonic. Lights Out by Adrian. LARSEN by Matteo. 1984 by Ticon. Sledge by DWTD, etc
I agree. I wouldn't say it's BAD, it just doesn't bang like the other games. That being said, the music effects also play a huge part in the redout 2 experience. The way it drops out on a huge jump but comes slamming back in as you land makes the jump that much more intense! Also the sounds the actual ships make themselves are cooler than the other games in my opinion. I guess playing the game for so many hours exposes you to the same songs so often that you almost don't hear them anymore.
@@xaqfpv That's a very fair point! It also doesn't help that Redout 2's dynamic sound engine tends to play only small parts of the full song. A blessing and a curse. Wipeout HD Fury handles this well by only applying subtle effects to music but letting the song play in its entirety, while also letting you play your own music via USB with its own dynamic mixing
👍 Also, the conqueror's power-cells in the thumbnail are super cursed.
🥲 This was Beautiful ... and Welcome to the Solar Redout Racing League Pilot
Yes! Push beyond your limits! Good job!
Terror Rupes is such a good venue. I played it for the first time in a multiplayer match (don't have DLC yet) I sucked balls but I instantly fell in love with the tracks
Glad do see you still racing .. gives me great pleasure to watch a newcomer on the rise.. One tip i still want to give you .. be more aggressive on your hyperboost... Give it as much regular boost on top and reaally drain your shields .. even if you smack against the wall as long as you are still alive afterwards it should shave seconds from your laptimes
Thanks, I appreciate the tips! I've noticed that most people boost themselves almost to death, the problem with that is I still hit the wall (or other racers) frequently enough to still need that little pad of shielding. I guess I need to work on perfecting WHERE to use the hyperboost as well, I could probably use it more often. But you're right, if you race clean enough your shields are pretty much just extra boost fuel.
@@xaqfpv yea I would suggest to stop as soon as you are hearing the warning at 25% ... Should get you enough leeway for errors... You can interrupt your hyperboost by pressing hyperboost again or breaking 👌
Keep it up! Learn the tracks. Keep tweaking that build. I think I was somewhere around 200+ hours before I found exactly what I wanted. But once it all clicks into place you'll be wishing there was a difficulty higher than Nightmare. Lol
Caldera is my favorite, forwards and reverse, in this pack. Well done!
XD Yea you usually suck the first few times you get on a new Track.... everybody does , i loved to watch the first impression streams of Rokinath ... Long time Redout veteran , but even he struggles with a new track ;-) and to mention Caldera is pretty tricky too I like Crab land more then Terror Rupes but... Rupes has a lot of fans too ...
Ahhh it warms my heart to see newcomers becoming sweaty and "gitting gud" ... keep it up , you're doing great.. Yea the Redout community is a kinda lovely place .. I really like the boyz❤ .. One tip .. at nuliajuk at te big ass jump .. you're better of to not detatch early ... the way you do it is the best way to get the 2km trophy jump but you can skip the middle platform by strafing around it and you keep more speed at the beginning while not detaching ;-)
Ha, I was wondering if that actually helped at all. It was a straighter line and I didn't have to roll, but I lost speed. I figured it was just for jumping's sake. I never did any off-track stuff and wanted to try it!
@@xaqfpv yea but still for the trophy in A league at the "Conqueror Conquest" it's invaluable
Keep it up💪 also checked out your drone flying videos as well, Redout and drone racing are two of my favorite things ^^
Ay, lookin good! It's always nice to see new people getting into this game. Welcome to the Redout League pilot!
Nice! Keep it up!
Awesome!!
Keep at it! It's not about being the best, it's about having fun and going FAST ❤
what game?
Redout 2
Redout 2 .. Imo one of the best Racing games in a long time ... Criminally underrated XD
good day, love it! breathtaking -later!
Good Rip my friend👍🏼👍🏼and jam. 🤘🏼
Beautiful flight and views 👍🏼👍🏼 love the sign. Long lost family?🤙🏼😉
Comin in hot brother 🙃👍🏼 Good flight. I loved flying planes back in the day. That was my issues. Finding spots to land and transporting a 6-10 foot wing span to the field. Back then it was like quads you just didn’t have one. My bedroom started to look like our local airport. Any way good flight my friend🤙🏼
Thanks man! I've always wanted a plane but never knew where to take it. Figured I'd finally just go for it. VERY different from quads but thats part of the fun! Looking into a smaller plane or wing that still handles nicely enough.
Awesome. Love the woods. Great little adventure Bro🤙🏼
Hell yeah🤙🏼 sweet freakin Rip🤙🏼
Good flight. Man that scraggly up high wow 😳
Ha, yeah that was lucky!
Good flight and Rip🤙🏼
Looking great, not shaky at all indeed!! 🤩
Love those Tiny Hawks!!! +1 sub 😉🚀
Ha, me too! Thanks!
Nice flight. I ordered this quad. Just waiting on slow shipping from China. Subbed 👍🏼
Thanks man! It's a great little quad, you won't regret it!
Nice flight,but is stock spi rx and vtx?
Yep, I haven't modified it at all in any way. Completely stock setup. I've only had it for like 3 days haha!
@@xaqfpv okay thanks man ,Nice range😜
Nice flying bro cool location sub me back
Awesome flying! Was that a runcam split mini?
Epicness 357 Thanks! It's not a mini, just a runcam split 2. It's a pretty snug fit, but it DOES work with this frame. Happy flying!
XAQ FPV thanks for the response, the footage looks great!
the fact that its upside down really throws me off
the fish eye effect is cool for certain things but a narrow lens would be cool too
is this where we had my grad party?
🖒🖒🖒🖒
