Hey mate! It's nice to see someone just getting started in this hobby. It's fun, isn't it!? I have two small recommendations for you (I'm not that much further into this than you)... #1) Ditch the gopro (and the fear of smashing it) until you feel you're actually at a proficiency level to fly with it and not be afraid you're going to smash it. #2) Set your FPV cam angle to around 30 degrees or so. It wasn't until I raised the cam angle that I found more control. I was flying at a VERY low angle when I first started so I could see quite a lot of the ground while at a level hover, this wasn't the right way to fly acro! Also practice in the sim and find YOUR rates. They'll be very different than what you think they should be when you finally hit the right ones. That's actually proving to be the hardest part for me personally is finding the right rates. I'm STILL trying to dial those in but I'm finally zeroing in on the "right" rates for me. You need to find that yourself and the sim is the best way without risking the real quad! Feel free to reach out if you'd like to talk. :) Happy zippin' mate!
i kinda like 25° for camera angle you dont need to go to high i just fly the betaflight default rates at like 670°/s which is fine for me i dont think rates matter to much aslong as you dont go full stick anyway imo its better to stay with 1 setting and just fly it if you play around with rate and camera angles you need like 3 packs to get used to it everytime and its harder to gain muscle memory that way the biggest thing to getting better is just stick time fly as much as possible challenge you self from time to time and try find someone you can fly with than you can talk about the hobby its always easier for someone else to find mistakes in what you are doing its faster to learn that way than to do it all by yourself for example in this vid my "wing man" would have told me "you are turning left all the time do a right turn" ^^
@@bluefpv3263 I apologize if I offended you, I wasn't trying to point out mistakes... I really didn't see MISTAKES, only hesitation and uncertainty (which I attributed to the $500 gopro, as I was the same until I ditched it for DVR for a while yet after absolutely smashing one to bits). I was only trying to offer an outside opinion based on my own experience over the past year and a half or so. As I said, I'm not that much further into this than you. And yes, having someone to fly with makes a difference.... Sadly, where I am... I seem to be the only quad pilot in the area. I'm a firm believer in experimentation to see if something else may work better or fit my needs better. I encourage everyone to experiment in the sim for that reason... especially on rates. Anyway, I meant no offense. I wish ya the best! Happy flying!
@@NoOneFPV you mistake me for the creator of the vid i think im not offended dont worry i was just offering my opinion since im learning aswell you are absolutely right about the gopro i almost lost mine today cause my cheap as camera mount broke i got insurance for the cam so if i brakes its not a big deal and afaik its normal that a fpv gopro has a broken back screen ;P about the rates you are right you should find you prefered rates and its worth putting some time into finding the right rates for me the standard rates work pretty good lucky me ^^ but after you found them you shouldnt tinker with the rates to much cause as i said muscle memory is very important at some point you should be able to do a half roll/pitch or a full roll/pitch blind cause its the base for most of the tricks and moves you can do with a drone and its worth to put some time into perfecting that which is hard if you change around the rates constantly ps.: i checked some of you videos if you got some dji vtx i guess you can use that for recording too ^^ i fly analog so dvr isnt really a option for me i have to smash some gopros if i want to make vids
@@bluefpv3263 Whoops! You're right! :) Dyslexia sometimes surprises me... hahaha But having said that... I do agree, once you settle on rates, you should absolutely stick with them. However, having said that... You do kindof have to go through the process of actually dialing them in for your flying style to begin with. If you're flying with rates that just don't FEEL good or RIGHT for you... then none of it will feel good and you'll just end up fighting the quad instead of being in harmony with it. The closer I get to the "right" rates (and I'm VERY close) the more in-sync I feel with the craft and the more it's inclined to do what I ask of it. :) At this point, I'm making very small changes and testing. I'm actually about to go out and fly 4 packs with a slight adjustment. :) I think this adjustment might be my final one. As for my gopro.... I did a little more than smash the back screen.... I somehow ended up ripping off the lens attachment mount and it just didn't function at all after that... (insurance!) lol...
@@NoOneFPV i use a 3rd print cover to mount my gopro on the quad which worked kinda good and i only broke the back screen so far ... work in progress im practicing trippy tunrarounds right now and ye i didnt put the gopro on for that it might be smart to get the gopro weight like with a gopro 3d print dummy on the quad tho so you have simmilar weight when you put the acutal gopro on at some point
very brave of you using the DJI RC, you risk loosing the drone. The second you loose image, the remote will disconnect :( try getting a regular RC. Even if you loose image, you are still in control of the drone and can pan out, get up etc. and wait for reconnecting. with the DJI Remote, until it reconnects, your drone is on the ground/ worst in water
Not bad at all bro, I have the same quad! It’s.a beast! Definitely raise your tilt just a little, it will eliminate that little bounce when throttling, the drone will go in the direction you want more easily, but beware, it will be faster, you can still go slow though, just takes a little adjustment.

imo its better to stay with 1 setting and just fly it if you play around with rate and camera angles you need like 3 packs to get used to it everytime and its harder to gain muscle memory that way
the biggest thing to getting better is just stick time fly as much as possible challenge you self from time to time and try find someone you can fly with than you can talk about the hobby
its always easier for someone else to find mistakes in what you are doing its faster to learn that way than to do it all by yourself
for example in this vid my "wing man" would have told me "you are turning left all the time do a right turn" ^^

im not offended dont worry
i was just offering my opinion since im learning aswell
you are absolutely right about the gopro i almost lost mine today cause my cheap as camera mount broke
i got insurance for the cam so if i brakes its not a big deal and afaik its normal that a fpv gopro has a broken back screen ;P
about the rates you are right you should find you prefered rates and its worth putting some time into finding the right rates
for me the standard rates work pretty good lucky me ^^
but after you found them you shouldnt tinker with the rates to much cause as i said muscle memory is very important at some point you should be able to do a half roll/pitch or a full roll/pitch blind cause its the base for most of the tricks and moves you can do with a drone and its worth to put some time into perfecting that which is hard if you change around the rates constantly
ps.: i checked some of you videos if you got some dji vtx i guess you can use that for recording too ^^
i fly analog so dvr isnt really a option for me
i have to smash some gopros if i want to make vids
