This was exactly what I was looking for! No one seems to like to cover the basics which is probably what I need the most. Thank you for this!

@FPVAcademy 8 лет назад

+foxur Great! So glad that I could help :) You should post a video response with you learning to hover, I think that would be sweet!

@foxurgaming 8 лет назад

Haha i'll try! Might be a horrific crash lol. These days I found I'm a much better builder than I am a pilot. Please keep up the awesome work on your channel. The hobby needs more people like you.

@FPVAcademy 8 лет назад

+foxur haha, even if it is a crash, I'd love to see if this helps people! Thanks man, appreciate the comment. Hope to see you active on my videos :)

@SSiXaXiS 6 лет назад

I've watched most of your videos, yesterday at work. I'll just say thank you sir!! I'm new af to this hobby and fly a bwhoop bo6 in my house because it's cold. Yesterday I could fly straight, hit a wall and repeat. Today I'm navigating my house. I can now fly a whole battery through my house and not crash once!!! Truly amazing! Thank you

Just bought a Walkera F210. Did first flights. Going good so far and your vids and VERY, VERY helpfull. Fell in love in racing drones during CeBIT 2016 and finally leveled up a bit to handle F210. .That is a hell of a hobby! Regards from Poland and all the best FVP Academy

@vaughanza 7 лет назад

Thanks Jack for awesome video. Bought myself Autel X-Star and loving. My first quad and loving it. I like to build a small FPV quad but have purchase a transmitter first. Not sure what to get in South Africa. Not really sure I do FPC racing but would like to do some FPV flying etc. Going go through more of your videos, looks like they be good. Thanks

@FPVAcademy 7 лет назад

Great stuff, so glad that I could help you :) Good luck with your flying!

@dannylinton1984 8 лет назад

Hi Jack, talk about perfect timing! I just finished my first build on a ZMR250, installing the FPV gear today EEEK. Iv only ever flown on Auto-level previously with the Phantom however found that it more or less flew itself with the GPS and auto level gear installed. I just got my 9xr Pro setup on my dual booted Mac and installed LiftOff and FPV Freestyle.

@FPVAcademy 8 лет назад

+Danny Linton Hey Danny, that's awesome! Definitely practice on Liftoff as much as you can before you fly in real life. Please post a video of your first flight!

@Jinggy1986 8 лет назад

Awesome vid!

@FPVAcademy 8 лет назад

+Jean Domingo Galang Thank you :)

@TheRoshan89 8 лет назад

going to get my zmr250 tomorrow, will be my first fpv flight...before this i flew a couple toy quads, both of them got lost after 1 week....gonna try to take it really slow and hope i dont lose this expensive drone....watching these vids now...wish me luck!! cant wait til tomorrow :(

@flyingstarz3559 7 лет назад

How are things going with your new quad. I can relate, my first quad I lost as well. It was a toy quad, a latrax alias. I just got another an xk 250 alien. I'm going to master that before I spend the money on a real racer.

@eliotcaber9606 7 лет назад

Hey Stephen, thanks for the support, truly appreciate it. We'll be uploading tons of How-to videos to hopefully help you fly a lot better. If you are serious about progressing, then please check out our Patreon Page at www.patreon.com/fpvacacemy

@lucaprof943 8 лет назад

I can see the amount of effort you put into this. I am going to try my very first fpv next week starting from almost 0, and I will do it following your tutorial. I will post back something to let you know how it goes, thanks a lot!

@FPVAcademy 7 лет назад

Hey Stozza! It's been 4 months. How did your flying go?

@lucaprof943 7 лет назад

Let's say that I am improving :) I don't have a video to post yet, and if I had I would probably not be very proud to show, but I can fly and be in control of the quad. I am not very precise and not able to do any crazy trick. I will try to put something together from the hd cam from my last session and show you :)

@matthewvanolst 6 лет назад

Just got my first FPV quad and these videos are great man. have not even used the FPV goggles yet but soon ill be confident enough to give it a go. You've got a new subscriber :) Matt, Johannesburg South Africa

@ariafpv 6 лет назад

@AdrianDev90 7 лет назад

Great videos FPV. For anyone having bother locating the Tracks dir. You need to go into the editor and save a track and LiftOff will create all the dirs for you

@FPVAcademy 7 лет назад

Thanks for the heads up!

@jakejoyner7419 8 лет назад

Nice job man, you're nailing the videos. Hope to see more in the future :D Also, I was wondering what editing software you use? It looks awesome!

@FPVAcademy 7 лет назад

Hey bro, thanks for the comment. I use Adobe Premiere Pro :)

@haon151 8 лет назад

New favorite youtuber. Can't believe that simulator has progressed you to where you are on your first flight. I'm flying LOS and struggling to hover. I'm gonna pick up the simulator and hopefully improve my skills. I want to buy fpv gear in the future. Any suggestions that doesn't break the bank? Best of luck with your journey!

@FPVAcademy 8 лет назад

+haon15 Hah that means a lot! Thanks man!! Start with a secondhand ZMR kit with Quanum V2's. Best cheap and still fairly good quality kit to start out with on a budget.

@mrbugden7426 7 лет назад

this really helped me with my new drone

@FPVAcademy 7 лет назад

Great! Glad we could help :)

@undefined_account 7 лет назад

Really helpful videos, thank you for your job. Can you tell a few words about start settings for quad in liftoff simulator? Which PIDs should begginers use at start? Should begginer use exponents in simulator or in his RC control?

@Lawzy 7 лет назад

Great tutorial jack. Ok moving to FPV after time using self leveling line of sight. Aside of the flexibility acro gives you over self leveling, why that choice? Thanks.

@Derickandlannyfpv 2 года назад

goed gedaan Mnr

@marcklein38 6 лет назад

Soooo excited to get my controller so that I can try and fly!!

@TheKookieMon-MikeyBrien 7 лет назад

What is that OSD you're using? That's pretty cool

@subha517 8 лет назад

Nice tutorial... :-)

@FPVAcademy 7 лет назад

Thank you!

@TheGalifrey 8 лет назад

Go to flight controller settings and set expo on Roll and Pitch to 3, much easier to learn. Jack, do the same on your TX (whatever you need say 30%) and you will find it easier to hover.

@christopherp.2785 8 лет назад

Nice!

@FPVAcademy 8 лет назад

+Christopher P. (MrToaf) Haha, how did you comment on this before it's even uploaded?

@christopherp.2785 8 лет назад

+Jack FPV it's a secret :) anyways I love what your doing, I'm learning on fpv freerider because my computer can't handle liftoff.

@FPVAcademy 8 лет назад

+Christopher P. (MrToaf) hahaha epic!! Yeah unfortunately you won't be able to practice some of the hovering techniques in this video on FPV Freerider since it's lacking some of the basic physics such as ground effect generated by the quad. I would seriously recommend getting Liftoff and even running it in a window on the lowest settings possible :)

@christopherp.2785 8 лет назад

+Jack FPV what's ground effect?

@FPVAcademy 8 лет назад

+Christopher P. (MrToaf) I'll explain in this video :) Should be live in about 30 minutes from now.

@dseednorwayn47 8 лет назад

great, I am 30 hours in doing the lift off. hehe might post a video on the progress soon hehe, but def be doing a maiden filght after 100 hour myself :) keep cranking em vids mate

@FPVAcademy 8 лет назад

+dseed norway Yes! Please upload some videos, I would love to see your progression :) Thanks man!

@dough1003 7 лет назад

when lifting off my quad keeps going up at the same throttle as video (same quad) I am using a taranis plus. is this something with transmitter settings or in game setting?

@wizmaster8088 8 лет назад

Hi Jack, thank you for the awesome video series I was searching on something like this for quite a bit of time. I do have the Liftoff game but there is nothing in the tutorial section, do you know when the tracks you use will be available in the game? Once again thank you!

@FPVAcademy 7 лет назад

Hey! These tracks aren't working with the latest version of Liftoff anymore. I will be redoing these videos really soon and have the tracks available for download on the Liftoff Steam Workshop. Feel free to add me as a friend on Steam to get notified. Just search for FPV Academy. Cheers!

@alumahomeinspections7009 3 года назад

Hello, can I replace a small drone I lost and continue flying with the same controller and googles? I bought a combo. Do I need to make settings with the new quad? Thanks

@scottfarlam1882 8 лет назад

Cool Video Man!! Judging by your surroundings im guessing you are in the Cape somewhere?

@FPVAcademy 7 лет назад

Hey Scott, I;m in Hermanus, 2 hours away from CT.

@AMDGuy88 6 лет назад

how do you get your fpv drone to fly acro, Any advice just bought a hitec fpv quad but it only goes side to side but stays flat can't make it flip or anything!

@shaggybuffalo9377 7 лет назад

Does the type of transmitter you have effect control in any way? I have a fairly cheap Fly-Sky transmitter and I feel like it maybe if getting a good $100+ transmitter might help me...

@ziggyzbeak 7 лет назад

Thank you I need your videos I want to FPV but its not as easy as it looks.cheers

@FPVAcademy 7 лет назад

Glad I could help!! :)

@nicholashamm2149 7 лет назад

I have a ton of USB to USB mini is that all I need to use a taranis X9d plus on lift off sum?

@JibberFPV 8 лет назад

Great Job as usual! How about a video about race tracks? i´m totally depressed about my flying skills when i see how fast you getting better and better ;)

@FPVAcademy 8 лет назад

+Jibber Haha thanks man! A whole range of videos covering racing techniques and tips are coming up soon :) First Beginner videos, then Freestyle, then Race, then Advanced Moves

@allenclouser2787 7 лет назад

@FPV Academy Are your maps still on the Liftoff Workshop? I can not seem to find any of the FPV Academy maps. I was hoping to use them in game since I am new to FPV quads.

@topgundk 5 лет назад

Anyone know if the track to train hover are still in LiftOff ? I can't seem to find it anywhere.

@Drohnengeek 8 лет назад

Hey Jack, great job! Thank you very much. Which app do you use to show us your stick movements?

@FPVAcademy 7 лет назад

Hey! It's the Blackbox Overlay. Cheers!

@geneyee 7 лет назад

hi Jack... May I know which flight simulator are you using?

@WooD1k 7 лет назад

Hello Jack! For me it feels like pitch oll is happening too fast even if stick is moved just a little bit, at your videos it looks way better\smoother. Do you have any idea why it's happening? Thanks in advance!

@chrisongtj86 8 лет назад

How did you get that blackbox overlay? Yours looks really nice. I'm using Naze R5 and R6 so totally new to this overlay.

@FPVAcademy 7 лет назад

It's just normal Blackbox that I edit a bit :)

@Science3D 8 лет назад

Hi, I love your videos... I am actually learning to fly my drone but I saw that EXPO should be set... I would like to know what is the ideal value to set the EXPO, on my remote control, so that I can learn to fly and race (later) with the same values... another way to ask the question is : what is the EXPO racers usualy race with? (if there is) thanks (from Canada)

@FPVAcademy 7 лет назад

Hey Claude! Great question. Definitely start flying with some expo when you start out. As you get better, you want to to drop it down. Keep me posted on your progress! Cheers

@Marco.0210 8 лет назад

Hi Jack, may I ask what you are using for settings in Liftoff? Which remote control do you use? Thank you very much !!!

@fluttershy77x 8 лет назад

+Marco Gotthardt To my knowledge a FrSky Taranis is used as controller.

@JasperTielen 7 лет назад

How to add the reffrence points you mention at 7:00, i dont see them.

@neilfpv 4 года назад

Was the camera at 5-10 degrees? Thank you.

@Oxizee 4 года назад

Where did he got roll on? Left stick or right stick?

@edsmith4402 8 лет назад

sweet video how do get liftoff and will it work wit a tananis +

@FPVAcademy 8 лет назад

+Ed Smith Hi Ed! To get Liftoff you need to download it from the Steam Store. Here's a link: store.steampowered.com/app/410340/ I also have a video on my channel showing you how to connect your Taranis to the Liftoff FPV Sim :) Let me know if you need any other help. Cheers mate

@zenman8269 8 лет назад

I know these are geered for beginners, very good video though! As you know the physics of Liftoff have changed, do you have recomended settings for advanced acro on the new version?

@FPVAcademy 8 лет назад

+Zenman FPV Thanks Zenman. Advanced videos covering some pretty hectic moves will also be rolling out as soon as these are under the belt. As for the physic in Liftoff, I'm currently running a betatesting version which has different physics from the one that you're currently running. Will see if I can get the settings from a mate that has the current version you guys are running though :)

@zenman8269 8 лет назад

+Jack FPV Very cool Jack! You have a very good teaching technique BTW

@FPVAcademy 8 лет назад

+Zenman FPV Thank you :) Hope it helps some guys get into this amazing hobby!

@StubbsPKS 8 лет назад

How did you get your OSD to show you the info about where your sticks are? I have an artificial horizon on mine :-/

@FPVAcademy 8 лет назад

+StubbsPKS Hey man, it's not an OSD. I add it in post production. It's the Blackbox Data Recorder

@11patdwhite 8 лет назад

i have been able to put your custom tracks in my liftoff and i get the dialog that lets me load the track, but then the only choice i have is to edit or save or to return to the main menu. I cant actually get to the track to fly it. Any suggestions?

@FPVAcademy 7 лет назад

@denis_santos 4 года назад

Hey Jack, thank you for the video! I'm using it as my main guide for fpv! I'm praticing on Liftoff the tutorial map, but i feel the drone very loose. It's difficult to keep in place (i only have 8h os pratice yet) but very few times and very few seconds that i succeed to align the poles Someone said to change the rate, and my question is: is this cheating? I mean, in real life it will make things difficult for me cause i made those changes in the sim? Thank you!

@glenesis 5 лет назад

If you don't slice yourself or anyone else open, this is good, right? Thanks for these exercises. I thought I could fly until I got my Bugs 3. It's like starting all over. Cheers mate!

@devjitpaul1191 7 лет назад

@djbis 8 лет назад

@Jack FPV , how is your line of sight "acro" mode flight? I find that its a lot easier flying acro mode in FPV. Just curious. Line of sight acro is tough!

@fluttershy77x 8 лет назад

+DJ BIS I got a Blade Nano QX for practising LOS acro indoors. It's fun!

@djbis 8 лет назад

+fluttershy77x same here haha! That Lil guy is tough!!!

@FPVAcademy 7 лет назад

LOS is currently non existent. Working on this to hopefully make a series.
