#FPVFreestyle #Ethix
I've not been flying for long, but think this is worth a mention. I didn't have Google's when I got my first quad, so learnt Los, I did RC cars in the past so was ok with the controls reversing. When I started using fpv I struggled, it was only when I used headphones, I realised how much of a delay their was for sound, headphones really helped a lot with throttle management.
For older guy I am very appreciative for these videos. Seriously they have been a huge help. So thank you
Really love this series , I’m not a beginner at all but any info coming from you is gold!
Keep up the great work MR
So much true in this video.
Spacial awareness is a huge hurdle to overcome. Not in the general sense, but in the 70 kph through a small gap after a 30 meter dive sense. As you get more confidence then the amount of spacial tuning needed gets much higher.
Throttle is also a big factor that makes a huge difference to your flying. Steele is giving you the benefit of over x,000 batteries flown. It is something that you have to learn the hard way or you can just take his advice and save yourself a year or so of hardships.
Flying as low to the ground as possible is certainly the best way to learn throttle control & in turn smooth flying. Is also my favourite thing to do, low flying has such a great look on camera when done well.
The real question is... "How many degrees of moustache curl is required to pull off a smooth Matty Flip?"
I'm totally new to FPV, and your playlist is awesome!
Mr steeles not lying flying with stuff to fly around even simply trees helps increase your skill so much. I started in an open feild yeah you learn basics but once i started going to the park and flying threw this cool tree patch and having to go in out of the trees i the first three packs at the park i went from bambi to flying through with confidence.
Seriously best blend of art & tech & science & fiction in a while on this website
I'm such a bad pilot I break parts on the sim. But I always have a great time.
Same :)
Dont worry man. You'll become the epic pilot you want to be someday
Oh don't worry, you will still crash a lot no matter how good you become
Make sure your rates aren't too high. That really help me back for a long time on sims and in real life before I learned how to set up rates.
Yep, even the best pilots crash..
I'm an Angle mode duffer, and throttle management is key for me. I've found my hover point, and I adjust my throttle input curve so it's stick center. That way, controlling altitude is intuitive. My current rig has most of the thrust below center, because I've scaled the throttle down to 55%; hover's at around 42% of full power, so about 83% of the available thrust is below center with this set up - no runaways when I bump stuff. I fly indoors in a small space; it's kinda like running a GP2 car at Monaco. . .
It's a 2S, 100mm micro with shrouded 1935 tri-blades, 108g AUW. Built like a tank, been flying this platform since 2018.
How about adding two fpv camera and watching on VR goggles...then we can get depth perception !!
I’m super excited to get into this hobby but I have to wait till Christmas for money though
Krazy Kwads lol same
Practice on a sim first! Put in a few hours on a sim like Liftoff of Velocidrone before you even turn on the real thing for the first time! The help soooo much. I learned more in 3 hours of sim time than I did in months and many many crashes of flying the real thing. Good luck!
There are some really good Facebook groups. I was glad to find them and find and become involved with the fpv community.
Just got my TX and sim following this series. Super easy, gonna get my whoop soon. You're in good hands if you watch mr. Steele.
Did you follow through?
Thank you for teaching the ins and outs of massaging my throttle.
This really is an excellent video series. Never done FPV but have flown R/C aircraft LoS for many years-so much good advice for beginners, I hope most follow it. And,imagine,driving a car with a clutch...sorry I forgot that in NA almost no one knows what that means! Manual gearbox every time....
I'm a skateboarder of 25 years I am a CNC operator and I love to fly over was raised in CA and was always around RC and I love and thing RC ty so much from this introduction I just found a new way to go sky dive skatebored and Engineer at the same time wow it was the missing link I'm currently looking g for a radio but there only one thing I'm so hype but I have to wait and take my time with all this I want to build my work station first and my wife just told me she's pregnant by the time I'm ready I'll know that fpv bible front to back... kickflip out the window in to a frontflip dive cut it out !!! Can't wait to learn all the lingo need more input!
Hey Steele, thanks for taking the time and sharing so much with us beginners. I really do appreciate your approach on getting the basics right!
This is the best Video I have ever seen on the subject of FPV . Thanks Steele.
Dude I do like 4 second laps there!!!!!!!!!
LOL ehehehe
I do like 40 seconds, with steez :p
Lmaooo
Damn, I’m at 4.3574
Me too. lol gotta love Steele
WulFPV Dude i came here just to see if some clown thinks like me and posted "Dude I do like 4 second laps there." and I'm still laughing so thank you WulFPV. Luv your pic.
First thanks a shit ton. Ur vids made me get into quads. I had no idea what it was about. Im just getting into quads as of a few days ago and because your vids are my inspiration, mainly freestyle 5" quads. Just got my radio (x9d s/e) transmitter and fatshark HDO. Good bye savings account lol. No quadcopter yet lol. But this stuff realllllllllyyyyyyyy helps. Just the little things you cant see pilots doing but should be aware of ("massage the trottle") or tech stuff helps a shit ton. Stuff u might or might not see, but to hear it laid out makes u super aware of it during practice. Thank you for all of your vids. Keep up the good work.
If 5"or6" is too much,and you wanna fly with gopro or hd,you can build a 3"freestyle quad,I started with 5"builds and have worked my way down to building 1s ur 2s brushless quads also,its super addicting,been waterproofing so can fly more..weather and work out here has been krazy..so much that I busted out my rc monster trucks and been bashing when can:)if you can dont buy cheap stuff cause you will end up paying for it in the end..with stuff you cant even give away,happy holidays:)
brand new to the hobby , seen alot of your videos always informative my brother just picked up a kingkong tiny7 for me for my first drone , looking forward to learning this amazing hobby
It took me a long time to realize that your nutcracker doesn’t have a robotic arm that’s holding a go pro.
I thought the nutcracker was holding the Gopro too.
lol same
Mr. carboferrum your Gogglestrap is king. got it yesterday and im very pleased with it.
expensive but really good quality. feels very comfortable.
@@ct810 ordered it from copterfarm in germany. i think thats not ideal for you. search ethix gogglestrap
If you put a pair of glasses on your nutcracker it would really look like you.I just lucked out and got a ldarc kingkong 110gt for 60 dollars on Amazon.com. This is my first real drone thats not a toy.I also got a devo 7 radio and the receiver for free from a guy who hated it(the radio). I'm dirt poor so it will do until I can get an adapter and practice on the sims like you specified in your vids. I'm counting the days for my drone to get here and I can get caught up with everyone else who are following your "How to fpv video series". thank you Mr.Steel for acknowledging that money is a factor for most of us, and for the "how to" vids , you're an excellent speaker and instructor.
Switching from los to fpv harder than i thouht it would be. Installed velocidrone last night. With your help and velocidrones viddeos there may be hope for me . Thanks :)
I flew LOS a lot before my first fpv flight... I also used the sim quite a bit before my first fpv flight.
My first couple of fpv flights were somewhat disorienting to me 👋
Thanks 😊. I have many questions!!
Coming from video camera drones, it was very confusing and disorienting trying to control my quad in the SIM, but thx to your suggestions, I'm already able to zip around some of the city maps without crashing after only a few hours of flight time! I have no idea how people learned how to do this without these SIMs to practice on.
Top notch info. So cool seeing you fly in a sim. I watched that snap roll through the window. And that front snap flip after the last gate, over and over. Your awesome Mr. Steele!
My wife once caught me messaging my throttle...she got real flustered...i said.."Steel told me to"
HEHEHH
This has got to be the best comment of 2020!
nice adjustment lol
Appreciate the radio holding explanations, I hold it very unorthodox like and pretty much learned to fly that way, was struggling to try and hold the radio the way others do and said the hell with it and went back to what works for me. Reassuring to know that others may have had a similar experience.
Dude that was so therapeutic! Nice work on this video, so much solid information. Watched this video with Thomas and both of us had such a smile on our faces! I know racing isn't your thing, but dude it's all there, love it. Nice flying on the sim while chatting 👍
new to this hobby , I do run rc cars and have a few planes but this is all new!
thank you for taking the time to share your experience
did my first FPV flight today, watching videos like this till sun comes back up,
All the helpful knowledge you are throwing out here...I've watched that Skyped late night build and lots of your videos and I have to say, Mister, you just earned yourself a new subscriber!
Love that youre taking the time to focus attention to new pilots and helping them get into the hobby to have a much better experience. Still one of my favorite pilots. Keep it real.
Ive been flying for over a year, but had alot of down times, months at a time. Flew this morning two batteries at a park and didnt enjoy it, which has been the case for the most part. Dont know anyone round my area Waco Tx who enjoy the hobby so been on my own since ive started. Long story long..... think im done with the hobby in which I have some equipment id like to donate to someone who is needing of it..... mr Steele, if you know anyone, let me know, maybe you can help make someones day or even xmas. Other than that.... its been a privilege watching your vids over the last year or so. Much respect bro. 👍
I'm following this series and most likey many of us who are have nothing but the radio and sim. Sorry you are giving it up!
@@A-A-RON81 Not really Giving up, just moving on . Though I love the badassness of the hobby, I really dont put much time in getting better. I also know how expensive it can be to get good stuff, and also repairs or replacement parts. Ive spent a crap load of money, and not much to show for it.....which im Perfectly fine with, just want to be able to at least help someone who could really use the stuff I have. Thats why I reached out to steele.... he has a massive following, and hoping he could help me help someone in need. Fingers crossed, it turns out good.
Also... ill make a video this weekend with my equipment and parts I have. Or give a list , which ever is best.
Can I have your stuff?
I live in Arlington so I might have the same problem but me and my girlfriend fly a GT r90 so if you could help us upgrade I wouldn't mind making the drive to Waco. Or better yet have some mini competition maybe a few of us meet you and "race" or something. Could be fun and motivation for some the few noobs in the area to meet up!
I recently got a qx9 lite and velocidrone and these videos are helping me a ton thanks! I have a new found respect for fpv pilots!
One more in the spacial awareness situation is knowing your range! Sometimes I start pushing the edges and bad things can happen!
I love the way you explain things and the great language mastery. Thanks
Hey, thanks. Very informative. Old fart here, have been playing with a couple of micros, a mini and now a decent low budget photo/selfie drone. But wanting to move on into FPV, and using the cell phone screen, just isn't cutting it. So thanks again for this series.
Listen to him. Get yourself a good radio and learn to fly the Sim in acro there cause it is so completely different it takes quite a while to figuere it out. If you go buy a ready to fly after 1 min. You'll. Most likely be learning how to repair it for the next couple months. I've been there and lost a whoop on the first day that I got to fly because my ready to fly was broken it dead death flips and caught on fire from not knowing how and just cutting the throttle to avoid a tree and hit the corner of my minors house lol
@@paulgeorge1069plan on it. Keep flying my other stuff, while I start working through. First step buying a controller.
Cool video.... If you press m in velocidrone it will show your stick position as an overlay....
Hi Steele, I was Flying my toy drone today and I see what you mean by how the drone behaves while flying close to the ground. It seemed to want to get closer to the ground as I traversed the ground. I found I had to blip the throttle to gain more altitude. Your tips will be taken seriously. I am getting my first FPV Drone next year and I want to understand the basics before I Fly this quad. Thank you for your wisdom, and tips on how to fly a drone! LTRIP!™
Loving this series Steele, just what us noobs need. The basics. Cheers :)
These videos are fantastic and are what I wish I had too follow in the beginning. Thanks for doing this
Great explanation! The moment you compared it with a clutch you had me. Love these videos!
In the end I think that you basically have a spacial awareness when you're used to play FPS-Shooters. The idea of simulating the whole thing before really getting in to it is the perfect information for a noob who doesn't want to destroy material and money.
Thank you for this series. I've been following you for ever. This series is helping me getting into FPV on a budget. $100 in South Africa is R1400. Your suggestions are much more affordable. X9D is R4500. QX7 is R2530...
LOS is scary. I keep it to a minimum. Some of my worst crashes are from losing orientation while flying LOS! FPV always! Goggles and VTX work great these days. Almost good as eye!
I use the first way to hold a radio but I use my pointer fingers to press the top buttons
I appreciate all of these, keep it up, can't wait for more. I'm getting into fpv because of you
You're my dude! Thanks again Steele
Thanks for sharing Mr Steele, Love this series , Good info for the beginner like me.I hope to see a little more about LOS.
"There's kinda something I came up with"...
Now in the same breath, "I didn't necessarily come up with it"...
Steele logic.
I'm just starting in this hobby from a country where the stuff is really hard to get but your videos are like liquid gold right now man.
Keep em coming!!
Thanks for this series. New to the hobby, no known activity in my area, so youtube is my only real source of info.Thanks again,will be following closely.
I really like the analogy of the owl.
That really does make sense.
Anyways, I have been recommending my beginner buddies. This is great stuff to listen to whilst doing homework.
Turning the quad is freaking hard!
Thanks for that vlog Steele!! It made understand a Lil better abt throttle management!! Happy Holidays & keep ripping packs!!👌👊✌😝❄⛄🎅🍷🎄
Thanks for sharing your process. I'm really looking forward to starting with Velocidrone. Perfect interactive, low cost starting point.
nice work ! I wouldn't be able to fly without your videos, thanks
I've been known to hit the pilot in Liftoff i'm so bad...
getting better, though. Great walkthrough
Mate thanks for your awesome content. Just been flying acro for about 2 weeks and getting much better thanks to you
"I'm not a racer.." does a 14.1 sec lap first time! :O
Dude thanks for this series, a little late to the game here, i watched some of your stuff a while back and i purchased a flew a Wizard x220 with the flysky I6 and bought some decent goggles, gutted i sold them off (because of one componant i couldn't replace for the video transmitted, i end up buying over a dozen different ones, even replacing the original machine, so the whole lot for 220, lost about 150-200. But now after some time, i've bought (cheap, probably too cheap -Eachine EX2mini set, with goggles/screen, basic controller, basic fpv camera) i've already got a sim i'm practising with, but watching you have re-light a burning passion, that i will indeed take up this hobby again! Wife free this time though.. :)
Do you have a soldering iron? You might think about building your next one. Stay off Banggood lol they hook you in with the price and kill you with the wait time. Good luck and stay in the air
my first FPV flight i was so bad at spatial awareness that i had to land in the firs 30 second because i was scared i would either crash into myself or loose the drone , the spot choice was a bit bad for a first flight, no contrast, windy and in a small valley pinned by mountains on 3 sides, second run i had to take a flourescent vest and drop it at the point where i should land and made it much better to see where i am from the drone video and not get lost.i probably made it worst because i used cheap camera and VTX for my first build too.now i can get to any new place and when i get in the air i don't feel so lost anymore, i guess the contrast for me was getting from the crisp clear image of velocidrone into the crappy image from the real drone so maybe newcomers should also try the signal loss simulation effect and the quality loss too, might hurt the eyes a bit but it will help when moving to real drone, that unless you move directly to HD tech
thank you so much bro, this really takes away the fear of getting started, thanks!
Great vids for new people! I started a couple of months ago and still struggle with some things also because I can’t get consistant stick time in but these tips help me big time 🤛🏻
Nice vid! I agree spacial awareness including visualizing the quads angle or position helps a lot to grasp what's happening in flight. I recommend pilots practice both freestyle and Racing. Racing disciplines more Pitch/Roll for altitude control as the throttle tends to be more restricted to the top end to get the most forward thrust
Thanks for the great tips for us noobies. I accidentally flew my 5 inch quad into my sisters expensive window luckily it didn’t break but only scratched the coating lol Gonna start using the simulator more now to practice as I’m always Willy nilly on the sticks 🥴
Awesome, I've been watching your vids and transmitter turned up today. Spent 30 minutes in the sim absolutely hopeless! I now have something to focus on when in the sim 😁
This will definitely help people get into the hobby
You are awesome man. I love watching your tutorials and freestyle. I ordered qx7 radio you recommended in tutorial part one. I can’t wait to have on my hand to ready play simulator in one to two week practices. I’m forward to see that more videos upcoming. Again, ur awesome man
Thanks Steele👍🏼 Good info for the beginner and not so beginner like me. Keep em comin
I’ve been doing it for a year and a 1/4 but I don’t consider myself anywhere close to a master. I’m getting good but there is so much more to learn. So thanks Steele🤙🏼
Great video for new ppl ! Keeping it for all levels Steele !
Ps I hope the drone drop has the mr Steele motors !!
Thanks man 👍 look forward to ep4
well done....I like the way you explain things for noobs
Thank you for this vids. I appreciate very much to get deep space insights from them of how to get iside fpv.
Very very very usefull vids !
Thanks a lot Mr Steele ;-)
😂👍 yup 1 inch above grass tops and full throttle 💥
Depth perception is a problem for me due to my eyesight. I am working on ways to work around it but it will take time. Maybe I will make myself a pair of cardboard goggles with just a cutout to the real world and wear them around the house and see if that helps. Thanks dude for the helpful insight to FPV.
Always a pleasure to watch your vids, i cant wait to see the next part...until then i practice throttle management 😋
Great informative video, I am flying cheap drones, and because of your videos I have been practicing power flipping my $20 X01 micro non FPV drone.. but it has no guard for blades so I'm making one for it out of dollar store foam board..
Grip the same way, thumb ontop index infront...used to pinch but evolved into this lol. Thumbin seems not as precise
It was so hard when I went from my plane and helicopters to a dji mavic mini which was my first drone about two years ish ago haha im used to inverted sticks and the dji controller wouldn't let me setup inverted throttle and it was tough for me to retrain my brain to push up or forward to throttle upwards haha I finally got it but I still prefer inverted I just fly my dji quads slower since I can't invert throttle
Thanks for this series!! Planning on getting set up after Christmas
Like your series, not so keen on your rates though. I'm nearer Dribs rates for a much cleaner smoother flow.
Very helpful series I actually already purchased a few things being impulsive as I am a diy drone tyro129 and a qx7
Absolutely sound adviced!.
THANKS FOR SHARING YOUR SKILLS
Dude thanks so much for making these videos on getting into fpv
Just getting into this hobby and really loving your videos - especially this series. Great work!
Wanted to let you know that you’re getting some heavy static on your audio. The mic quality and levels are great but something is interfering with your signal. Might want to look into that.
There was a heater fan on in the room :(. It’s cold up in these hills
I've been thinking for quite a while that it would be cool if you could use two camera's for FPV. one for each eye.
I have the same lamp in the background! It is a good lamp it is nice and heavy
Extremely well presented!
Liking this series, cheers
Thanks for doing this series bro.
199K subs! 200k any day now! Then the Mr Steele Special totally new frame comes out! ;-)
for new pilots a buzzer with tiny lipo on it is a must have.....6€ on ebay !!!
"monocular depth cues"
parallaxing, shadows, etc are how the brain assesses depth without "stereo vision". Up to 10% of the population is stereoblind so I've thought for a while that they may naturally be better at flying quads however I haven't been able to prove this. :(
All great info Steele.
I suck balls at los but I feel I need to practice more & it will help me in fpv. I feel if I know what the drone is doing physically while flying fpv it will make me better. I could be wrong lol.
Low to the ground! You hear! Great video. Loking forward to more. I got some freezing stick time in today, LOS acro, not so low to the ground though :-)
Great series!
