- Hey you, thanks for taking an interest in my video!
Today I grab you, my FPV Drone & my bike as I set off to a cool little spot to fly. Im really trying to push my boundaries when it comes to FPV flying, as im a noob. Probably about 1 hour of flight time so far... So bare with me... anyways, hope you enjoy this little vlog and I'll make another very soon :)
Thanks for watching & subscribe for more daily vids!

you know what man, No one ever talks about how landing is so crazy difficult at the start because in a Sim you don't actually land you just reset it, hovering is also very difficult
Exactly! I was thinking about that, there's no "landing drills" if you wanna call it that.. for sims yet! It's almost disregarded lol. I think I Have been figuring it out better though.... i was disarming way too late lol
I agree. I'm not an expert. Hovering is difficult because of the camera angle i guess. I practiced hovering with tinywhopps in the game "Liftoff" an nearly 0 degrees camera angle.Landing just quickly press disarm close above the ground like in the sim 😂
Helps to get it properly calibrated for hovering
I literally practiced for a week for like 3 hours a day just lifting off and hovering for like 5 seconds and landing until it was second nature with or without goggles
@@brandonbrodbeck6688 oh interesting, ive never thought to do it without goggles... could be a fun experiment 😂😂
That wobble is called prop wash. You need to PID tune your quad.
Thank you, John! I appreciate your input
That "wobble" is called prop-wash. It happens when the quad enters it's own turbulence, like when doing a split S, or a sharp turn into turbulent air. It can be fixed with a little bit of tuning, there's heaps of guides, or you can play around with some of the presets in betaflight.
Awesome, thank you so much for this info! Changing my motors today so will be needing to tune (it will be my first time)
@@chasemomo Don't know if you're reading this but looking at your quad it looks like you bought it. In that case it noromally gets pre tuned so stuff like this shouldn't really happen... Did you do anything in betaflight like reflashing the fc or resetting the tunes? Just curious
You can try flying slow and controlled. Maybe put your camera angle a bit more down so you see where you going when you fly slower
Thanks for the advice! I actually noticed the other day that my tilt was really high... i think it moved up on its own. 100% plays a factor into why I couldn't land well this day... thanks for commenting!
@@chasemomo No problem you're welcome
i also struggle in landing been 3 months flying and you will get the hang of it now i can hand catch and hand launch it :D
Hand catch & hand launch!? Woah that's awesome!
@@chasemomo i can do it better than landing on the ground, try it out put it in angle mode extend your arm, same goes for landing, angle mode, take off your goggles bring it in and cut the throttle. its fun hehe
Main tip of advise is make sure your shutter speed is double your frame rate and use an ND filter to cancel out the increase in light. Its what gives fpv footage the smooth look and clean motion blur. Great vid though!
I Likes that he rides his bike to his fly spot. Greetings from germany
Hello! Welcome! And thank you for watching!
I feel ur pain bro!! Florida is super humid 👻💨
Dronie 😂 my daughter calls all my drones that
Trying landing in the dark with 80% water around u....just did that in my 4th of July video
My suggestion is pitch back a little when ur coming in and cut the motors like 6 to 8 inches over the grass
Slow is pro 🫡😎👻💨
Thank you sir, I appreciate your effort & input! Just watched your firework video, looks bad*ss!!!! Cheers
@chasemomo ya man!! Gotta support the Florida peoples 😎👻💨
Well while I'm still here....probably moving to Minnesota soon ....done with this heat 😎
Find a nice big grass field. Spend a pack just doing taking offs a wide orbit and touch downs.
Make the landing point a bit away from where you are sitting so you don't have to worry about bounces.
Basically just practice landing in a forgiving environment and you'll get confident you can get it on the ground and disarmed without breaking anything pretty quickly.
It may take a while to look pretty, but that's secondary. At the end of the day as long as you can get it near the ground without to much speed you can just disarm and gravity will handle the rest.
Might want to consider turning of air mode, you can put it on a switch, which I believe is why you got that jump up on the slightly hard landing.
Thanks for the advice 🙏 Seriously. AND thank YOU for watching! Ive been just completely disarming the drone right above the ground. that was it falls gracefully in the grass :)
great flying man! you should get a silicone gopro protection , they are light , cheap and protect well the gopro from light/medium damages
Awesome recommendation, thank you!
I love the CFA shirt!
Thank you!! haha I have another one as well. My work gave it to me. They buy CFA everyday for lunch (which means I eat it everyday lol) going 2 years strong now! 💪
Keep it coming dude. you got lots of potential coming up. Have you ever tried the DJI Avata? You will love it .
somebody probably already told you this but that "wobble" at 1:52 is called "prop-wash" and is totally normal with Fpv drones. gr8 vid btw
Thank you, actually, you're the first to somewhat tell me its normal... so I appreciate ya!
disarm before you hit the ground than it doesnt flip out
the wobbling is from flying though air that the propellers distrubed
for example if you sink down in a spot or do sharp turns
its called propwash
love thiss, the footage is so pretty!
I can totally relate man! I used to crash just landing. That’s where I’d get most of my damage. I like to come in and pull back on the pitch just a little bit and that allows me to slow down just enough to be able to control that landing, there are a lot of resources on throttle control that were a big help to keep flying. New sub!
Thank you for subbing! Super excited to share my journey with ya. Also, thanks for the pointers. I find it hard (personally) to pull pitch back without going absolutely bonkers lol. Need more stick time for sure....
this is the most under rated channel love the vids
Those "wobbles" are high pitch vibrations that the gyro is picking up. I usually get those when i delaminate an arm, or have a badly tuned quad.
Great Video!
Thank you for taking your time to explain this! 🙌
nice vid man, as for better landings, i found that flying low and slow as well as just hovering sometimes helped a lot. like really just focus on flying smoothly and slowly at a low altitute (like 3 feet or less). this really helped me and also made landing much easier as i can just hover a few inches off the ground then disarm. also, lowering your camera angle down slightly will make it easer to do this too
Thank you TyeBoi, I appreciate the good pointers 💯
dude for ur amount experience you have good flying skills but how can you not land it :DDDDD
thank you so much! im about to go fly again
Broo even I've just started with this as a hobby..... Shivering and sweating are real problem when u just have started the fly in real life. That's okay just keep practicing in real life more than the simulator within the next 3-4 flight u will be better in controlling and landing this thing. All the best 💯🍻
Don't take off so close to yourself.
For two reasons, first your going to blow sand into your controller. Second, if you change props and mess up, the drone may flip into you, cut you up, and prevent you from disarming because you're too busy bleeding all over the place & freaking out.
Second, set a pre-arm switch before you slice yourself up. Sooner than later.
Other than that, just enjoy the hobby. It gets easier.
First class advice here, thank you hattrick. Pre-arm sounds cool.. never heard of that & going to look into it! Thank you!
@@chasemomofyi if you don’t have an extra switch for prearm usually I just apply another tip: keep throttle at middle when carrying your controller so quad doesn’t arm accidentally. If it’s set up correctly it will refuse to arm unless throttle is at zero.
@@Kleinage yes, actually that is how I have it setup at the moment! It’s awesome
Nice video dude and great flying!😁 flying tree proximity sharpens the skills loads.
Good to know, scouting my next location soon.. will be sure to do more trees. thanks for watching!
Awesome 👌
Thank you Josh! And I've never tried the Avata. I was on the fence with getting the Avata 2 or this Nazgul from iFlight. The flight restrictions with the Avata is what sold me on the Nazgul.
You're cranking that up too close to you.
Agreed! Thanks for looking out 💯
You made me anxious😂😂
Lol! That's how I felt in the moment as well 😂
how does bro mot have 100k subcribers
Damn Im flattered, just need to be consistent... 💪💪
I remember when I first started I just kinda just got close then dropped it in front of me wasn’t pretty then eventually you get better and hover it and landings get better,dude practice some hovering up high then bring it down
ii love your work brother. f the day come your looking for a videographer please let me know. i wanna work for you . btw i am from maldives. take care brother.
Some quality practice man! You'll get smoother with more practice. You might want to lower your rates and increase your expo just a tad in the meantime, though.
I have lowered my rates funny enough, but I have yet to mess with expo. I need to learn / try that out sooner rather than later. Thanks for the tips!
Just subbed. Liking the vids so far. I'm always visiting Florida. Maybe we can meet up and fly together one of these days
That would be bad*ass! Thanks for subbing btw, excited for you to see more vids as I make them :) what part of Florida do you visit?
@chasemomo I just go where my vehicle takes me lol. Last place I visited was Pensacola. But I have been to Orlando, Daytona Beach,Panama City Beach. Just drive and fly.
The wobble is wake falling into your own air thrust. So to speak
If you have problems landing, just switch to angle mode or practice hovering. Sticktime is half the life in FPV. You will only get better through practice 😊🤟
DAMN it drone is on my destktop Wallpaper
I think landing in FPV is the most complicated, I tried to land by taking off my glasses to see the drone but things didn't go well at all..., I leave a like friend.
Oh man. that doesn't sound the best! Thank you for the like :)
I often switch to Angelmode then fly in front of me. Point the camera away from you. Then take off the goggles and land the copter like a DJI drone…
Hmmmm, angle mode.. interesting. Ive never tried? what does it do?
@@chasemomo do you use Betaflight? Definitly set it up!
In angelmode, the copter stabilized itself. This means that if you do roll and then go of the sticks, the drone automatically goes into the stabilized position (hower position) back. In addition, the copter cannot completely roll over. I think it can turn up to a maximum of 60°...
hopefully it was understandable ;) otherwise there are all kinds of tourtorials on YT 👍😉
If you only hbave 1 hour flying time and some on the sim and you are this good then you are obviously a natural pilot. I have been flying for a year and Im about as good.. hahaha I fly every day., I have probably over 100 total flying time hours under my bet and I still cant do a lof of stuff.
Wow, I'm a bit flattered, thanks John! I suppose so. I should make a fun little video about how whack my controls are... Pitch is inverted, YAW & Roll swapped. Lol.
Thanks for taking your time to comment
Either print or purchase a fixed angle, slide in GoPro mount for your quad. GoPros aren't cheap.
Agreed! Big time. I actually did get one, thank you for your advice 🙏
Best thing for landing is to get close to the ground and dissarm... the pid will freak out no matter how nicely you try to land.
@@greedfox7842 thank you for this advice!! It’s helped so much
hey man just a little tip the Wobble you had in like 01:55 was propwash it can be fixed by tuning your kwad
Thanks Vincent (nice name, its my middle)
You know this is going to come off as a dick comment but I've only 20 hours in liftoff and I've been flying a cetus Pro in my backyard (while I build my grinderino and demibot) and this hobby is way easier than people say it is. I'm already doing juicy flicks, backflips/front flips/rolls, inverted yaws. Fly aroundy wife in the kitchen and all through the house. Can hover and land on my foot.I'm working on trippy spins now. Also im 44.
Love to hear it! Thanks for sharing & I agree with you, I think this hobby is easier than what people say
@@chasemomo Yeah bro, one of the coolest hobbies I picked up in a while. Coming from a skateboarding/bmx background and being a general tinkerer and into Raspberry pies and other computer stuff, it's like my perfect Venn diagram of a hobby.
For what its worth, I have a Boxer, and got my girl a Pocket radio. I love the portability of the pocket, but I cant land/disarm with that controller to save my damn life, yet get it perfectly every time with my Boxer radio. For me personally it simply comes down to the button vs switch for the arm/disarm. There is something so much easier about a simple finger flick to disarm vs a button press that makes a world of difference for landing. Whenever you upgrade one day or try out a friends radio with switches, I would be very curious if that became easier for you as well
Dude! This sounds like an issues I thought I had - but I wasn't 100% sure... thank you for this info about the disarming on the pocket. Huge help! Oh and thanks for watching!
@@chasemomo Also just noticed, on the pocket radio, antenna is meant to be turned sideways while in use lol unfold it, then turn it 90 degrees
Hover 1ft or so then disarm
pull more back when landing and land slowly thats my advice greate video tho 👍
Thank you very much, I appreciate your advice
I loved this video 💚one of the best FPV videos I’ve watched in a while 💚 nice flying
Wow FLO, thank you SO MUCH for your kind words. So glad you found this video :)
awesome video! i’m starting off just the same as you and know the feels! subscribing
Super cool! Let's grow together 👊
@@chasemomo hell yeah brother
This content quality is Sick!!! Love this. Subscribed!
Thank you so much! More to come :)
Yea landing blows. Especially for me. Most of my flights are in tight waterfalls in deep forest. So many fails 🥴
That's badass! I would love for some waterfall land to fly around.
@@chasemomo 🤣 and I want open spaces. Human condition A. Always want what we don’t have. Sweep rips though man!!!
Yo bro
New sub here
Where in Florida do you live
Nice rip by the way bud 😀🤘🏻🤙🏻
I stay on the east coast near fort pierce!
@@chasemomo oh
Ok
Right on
I’m in riviera beach
Not to far from fort pierce I don’t think
Are you on Facebook?
Aint no wayy, my gf calls my fpv drone droney too!!
Hahaha thats awesome! I told lilly about your comment .. she goes "all girls are similar" hahah
Yes I have felt Florida humidity in fact it was so hot we didn't spend more than 30 minutes outside
I completely agree 100%. Especially this month... brutal
@@chasemomoI went in the winter so I wouldn't know, the best way to learn to land is in a simulator i used that and technically i can land on a table now it takes some practice but you'll get it eventually
land on the grass not on the pavement🙂
Big facts! Thanks dude. Its a little bouncy on the pavement lol
The first thing to learn is start and landing ;-)
Thanks Spanky!
Gotta learn to land, how ya gonna perch?
Honestly, wish I knew what perching was... Im really noob lol
Nice run for only an hour in the real world.
Thank you sir!
this was great!
Thank you SO much! :)
I think the land was 10/10 lol
hahahah right. depends on how ya look at it 🤣
You should try some racing. It is soo much fun
Ive seen some of your videos in my feed, they are fun to watch! Extremely skilled
@@chasemomo thanks
Cool video just subed
Thank you! Happy to have you here
😂😂 fuck yeah!
Thanks for watching dude!
2:27 I hate foggy goggles too.
Dude its almost like when you go skiing / snowboarding & it starts to fog up haha
@@chasemomo During the summer I try to walk as calmly as possible so I won't end up with fog in the goggles but It's the stress and adrenaline which makes me sweaty...
Fpv pilots don’t land, they disarm close to ground 😂
You know.... you're right.. wise words... 🙏
what quad do you fly?
a Nazgul 4 inch deadcat! Love it. Thinking of getting a 5 inch soon though...
@@chasemomo oh cool, you should look into tinywhoops 😉
Good old Florida heat and humidity, gotta love it😂 fun vid. Thanks
Its really no joke! lol, thanks for watching!
Nice video bro! Keep it coming
Keep it coming!!!
Cool.Thank You
That last landing was perfect, though!
Thank you! Landing on concrete is tough!
@@chasemomo I take off from concrete but I always land on grass ;-) ruclips.net/video/tOzdXNfNzKU/видео.html
@@chasemomo I always aim for the grass ! ;-) ruclips.net/video/tOzdXNfNzKU/видео.html
Cool Video👍
Thank you Linus!
You know there's a patch of grass like right next to you. Just pitch it in there, and disarm. Learning to land safely and softly takes practice, and it takes good throttle control.
Great idea & now (a few weeks later) ive learned that grass will always be my best friend for landing. Thanks for watching!
