I spent about 7 hours in simulator before the first flight. Then I flew about 4 hours on the real drone. Then I came back in simulator to learn tricks for a 2 hours. And now I am preparing for my first Split S. 4 hours is a tough time for beginner in fpv.
I didn't make any consecutive gates until several days of hard practicing. What you show is quite impressive for a fresh newbee, it's almost hard to believe.
Love the coaching, I've had a tone of issues with turning fast (and drifting), but your comments made sense so it's back to the SIM. Thanks for the upload 🙂
Depends on the new pilot. I had no problems after an hour or so of messing in a drone simulator on steam. Im not freestyle pro, but I had better control than this guy had. Difference being, Ive had 30+ years of experience playing video games among other things that lend itself to eye hand coordination and the like.
i did a 20min coaching with my brother in liftoff, and id let him fly my nazgul 6s after, he flew fine, nothing crazy, but im 100% sure he could take it around a football field and not crash, its not that hard
6:35 instantly noticed one huge difference with the sim. In the sim he flew with like 25-30 pitch angle on the cam. Here, it's at like 5-10 degrees. That's why he didnt move forward at all, becuase in the sim he never had to pitch forward to accelerate. I think the main thing that helps a beginner, is the rates. Limit the rates and put some heavy expo on it. That's what let me finish races in small gates in the sim after just 1 hour (from complete noob). First 30min was hell. Realized i could limit rates and set expo curves. Instantly flyable. ESPECIALLY on the throttle stick. There is no use or reason for a beginner to have 40% power at barely any stick movement. It makes no sense to put someone through 800 rate controls as a beginner. You dont need it, and you dont want it. It only hurts. You cant really improve fast either if you have no way to control the drone. Better to be smooth an accurate first, then gradually up the power.
For someone who has never touched a drone.. would LiftOff simulator be the best tool for learning the basics? VelociDrone's Lil Bastard, DJI Drone Simulator? What about the controller? Tbs Tango 2 pro? What physical drone would be a good starter? I'm interested in 1) FPV and free-style / flippy-flops 2) Autonomous Flying (Waypoint, Lua scripting, Return-To-Home) 3) Follow-Me (Sport-Tracking) and Obstacle Avoidance And how does a custom DIY build compare to the features/performance of commercial offerings with proprietary firmware..like the Eachine E520S , Skydio2+, or Mavic Air 2S ?
Im using liftoff and it is pretty impresive, if you don't wanna spend 1000€/$ on your first drone kit, start with analog drones and goggles, i also would recommend you to build your own drone if possible. I am a noob too
Just subscribe, starting to get into drone and all. About to purchases my first one to. FPV will be for later. but got damn love watching you're vids. those Mantis drone look insane.
I think that's pretty impressive you're flying even though like you were doing big gates I thought I was really good for 5 hours of flying good job this is a cool ass video thanks
It baffles me how durable these quads are. The first time I crashed mine, I just got tangled in a small branch but it broke 3/4 of my props. I then realized that it was because I didn't disarm quick enough. I've since bound my disarm button to the controller in the simulator and have been training my reflex with disarming. I've since had a few decent crashes and that quad doesn't have a scratch on it. It did lose a couple screws but I'm assuming they were loose already. I bought replacements and loctighted them all in place lol
Aw dude, Mantis was my first FPV store I went to years ago when I was first getting into it 3 and a half years ago. Due to unforeseen circumstances had to put it down for a while. Finally booted back the sim and I’ll be buying my first drone this week! :) Maybe we will end up flying together someday brother!
YES! If you are a beginner DO NOT put on your GoPro unless you are VERY confident. I know the urge to get good quality footage, but I know from experience the pains of hurt gopros
Yo im a descent pilot but have no clue what kind of gear to buy. I need to get into 4k smooth edits for commercial events, sports and other applications
No shot hes flying like that after 4 hours. He had some sort of prior training. Essentially this is a balancing skill and you can not just learn that in one day. I call fake
He said that he had the controller to test and play with it before they did the video. I think he said it was the day before he gave it to him to let him test out.
Nah it's possible. I haven't flown a drone IRL but I played the sim hes using here for about an hour and got it down quickly and that's only because I play a lot of video games, and also, ganes that have helicopter, such as battlefield, run on the same controls, which I have many many many hours on. Point is, if the sim is anything like real life flying, then it seems about normal to me.
I agree it's fake. I'm full newbie, got 12 hours in sim and that guy flying like x3 times better than me. No way he can fly so fast and stable turning after 45 minutes. I can't after 12 hours! This is full BS guys
What's best for a right hand person? A throttle on left or right ? I'm trying to learn to fly but trying to throttle and turn with same gimble is near impossible 😢 so annoying I feel like I'll never get it right .
@@andyescapesyes brother, an entire playlist with basic flight and some basic tricks would be soo helpful for newbies like me. Great video too, keep making more non stop 🎉W
saying FPC is extremely hard is an overstatement i think. i learned how to fly and do some freestyle in 12 hours of tryp (simulator). never flew in real life but ill come back to this comment once i did. its really not that hard till now.
slowly getting into fpv drones, this was a very entertaining video!

It looks like Liftoff. Other good sims are Velocidrone and TrypFPV. The simpler the better.
exactly, ive been playing for an hour and cant even turn.
Love the coaching, I've had a tone of issues with turning fast (and drifting), but your comments made sense so it's back to the SIM. Thanks for the upload 🙂
Without the coaching there's no way this would've happened in 4 hours 😂
That's true, you're so lucky flying 5 inch digital for the first time 😂👍🏻😁
no!!! i made it, with sim about 5 hours, i already flight with my 6" drones dude..
even still not smooth,but i'm still fly and not crash 😅
Absolutely me, I’ve been in the aimulator for a couple hours and still can’t manage to control the drone in manually 😢😢

How to setup the controller in simulator? Can you give me the explanation? thanks

Nice flying Sascha!
FPV is amazing!
Enjoy!
I think that's pretty impressive you're flying even though like you were doing big gates I thought I was really good for 5 hours of flying good job this is a cool ass video thanks
thanks for the kind words! appreciate it!
I really want the mini 3 pro from dji but this fpv stuff is superrrrr tempting
different purposes
Bro that was dope! I'm excited to get in to fpv :D. what is the sim and the controller you got?
9:46 the way he lowered his head lol
He did well, congratulations nice flight.

This is the liftoff simulator
I got too excited when he nailed that first split s with the real drone xD

What is a name of a good sim I can use ? I'm brand new to fpv.
Nice man new subscriber
can you share your drone settings in the simulator as well? 😅
Hey great video! Just a question. What flying mode do you recommend to use for first practicing flying the drone in the simulator?
grab my fpv guide and it has everything including a video sim guide, but hop in a race!!!
No…! This dude so smart, he learn so fast❤❤❤ i bet if he can spend a week of flying, he can do it more smooth
does anyone know a workaround to practice fpv with dji mini 2 remote?
YES! If you are a beginner DO NOT put on your GoPro unless you are VERY confident. I know the urge to get good quality footage, but I know from experience the pains of hurt gopros
Great job Sasha! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I have a DJI Mini 4 pro RC 2 controller. Can I use that on these Sims?
Yo im a descent pilot but have no clue what kind of gear to buy. I need to get into 4k smooth edits for commercial events, sports and other applications
mate check out my guide it has everything you need to get the best gear, to start gopro 11 or action 4?
When dont get past the audition and you see the final movie
If I buy that drone will I have to build it or will it be pre built?
Hahaha solid content - lots of genuine laughs throughout the vid
4:08 Where's Jessyca Hyde
which simulator u are using ;)?
liftoff!
What is the name of the fpv simulator?? Great video
Litoff.. other sim.. like uncrashed, drl sim,
What drone do you recommend for begging
can you make a step by step guide pls, im really struggling rn
check out my ebook mate, i’ve got everything there and a simulator tutorial!
Are u mckfpv in drl?
Awesome video, 4 hours is pretty dope, I did about and hour and no way think I can do what he did in 4 hours.
haha ducking his head :) great video
what simulator did you use
What rates did you use?
Hey man, i'm trying to build my own track on Lift off and can't seem to place bigger goal posts on the edited track... any assistance?
i just use the default maps they have huge gates, i wouldn’t waste my time 😅 never built a map
@@andyescapes really? I must be doing something wrong because all the gates are super small… wierd
@@davidxing5988 some of them are definitely tiny but some other maps do have huge ones
@@andyescapes thanks for your tips! I’ve relied on your RUclips videos in starting FPV. 🙏
Awesome....following your Channel from the Solomon Islands...this is so fun!..hahaha
Nice job Bro 👍🏼💪🏽
Which one simulator is this??
Whats the name of the dronesimulator?
Man's got skills
Way to go, got a good coach there.
harder than it looks 😳
I need this type of friend 😂😂😂
What is the soft ware name
In 4hours from scratch😮,,you have talent bro😅..
(I have more than 10hours in sim and cant fly like you😅)
Which map is this and what drone is he using on Liftoff?
Haha nice one guys. ✌🏼
thanks mate!!
I don't know any of you guys but man I got anxiety when he got in the air 😂 good video
Looks like fun.
Is there an app for phone that I could connect my flysky radio and DJI goggles up to practice?
What do you think about the dji avata?
if you have money to burn it’s a great way to get started otherwise go straight for the 5inch bnfs
@@andyescapes in dont have so where to find those? Thx for the quick answer btw! Greetings from europe
What’s the name of the simulator and it is free or not ?
very quick learner wd
When my litoff is always going up at the beginning?
First time I saw him doin that split s my toes started tingling 😂
What is your goggles you have
Nice training 👍
No shot hes flying like that after 4 hours. He had some sort of prior training. Essentially this is a balancing skill and you can not just learn that in one day. I call fake
He probably played video games that had flight in them

Where can i get the app for the practice one
it’s called lift off costs like 30 bucks on steam
саша красавчик👍
Nice!
what sim is ??
Liftoff its somewhere in the comments 😅
Which simulator are you using?
liftoff!
when the drone was hanging in the tree and he said bing chilling, i can't stop laughing
What is the simulator or best one to learn ?
we used lift off but they are all very similar. velocidrone is good too
what's the name of the simulator?
oh nvm its liftoff, sorry
Glad you’re back making videos after losing your drone a few months back! 🙏🏼
N I C E :)
What's best for a right hand person? A throttle on left or right ?
I'm trying to learn to fly but trying to throttle and turn with same gimble is near impossible 😢 so annoying I feel like I'll never get it right .
use default mode 2. throttle left stick. or for some pilots mode 4 works wich i run :)
Im right handed, i reccomend mode 2 because thats what most of the world uses and it feels comfortable for me
@Chirp FPV thanks .
Cool! We need step-by-step Liftoff tutorial :)
i was going to say if people want that i can go into what to do step by step!
@@andyescapesyes brother, an entire playlist with basic flight and some basic tricks would be soo helpful for newbies like me. Great video too, keep making more non stop 🎉W
@@andyescapes I would do anything to get tips and tricks to get us going. I love the channel!!
Game?
7:50
Simulator Name please??
Liftoff
game?
you can tell someone is begginer when he keeps turning head around while flying 😂
congrats! you make another man getting poor... 😂😂
Nice!!!
Try out the real thing after 4 hours of sim and i t was pretty good, you only need the click that makes you understand how to fly
Is that Malcom in the middle? 😂
Heck yeah! Split S in the first day!?
a very dodgy one but i guess it counts haha
If we buy this drone does it come with the goggles?
nope haha
All an All pretty good. Id say rather few people could have done that in such a small time.
100 hrs in sim before first flight looooool!
I can't believe he could learn in four hours.
It’s turns life into a game
Update. Update. Update!!!
Bro did a good job for only 4 hours in sim.
saying FPC is extremely hard is an overstatement i think. i learned how to fly and do some freestyle in 12 hours of tryp (simulator). never flew in real life but ill come back to this comment once i did. its really not that hard till now.
Stunning ungrateful face for someone who has a dedicated coach and a completely free drone at his disposal to try such an experience.
That was his first time flying in liftoff? Took me like an hour to learn how to hover without crashing
no he had maybe four hours by himself gave him the controller night before haha
You should do online FPV coaching. I can be your first customer
I never have used a simulator before and I hate watching new bees fly 😎
