Great attempt young grasshopper. Many batteries left before the student becomes the master. *bows in honor*

i use a self centering stick for 3D just to make it easier on my brain.

What do you guys think about flying 3D? Have you tried it? Was it harder or easier than you expected?

I started on 3d heli and would love to try 3d FPV. Thanks for the raw share of your experience.

That is FUN watching Nurk on the learning curve!

I recognize that howling sound! Same as when one of my props was mounted wrong side up.

Damn bro - That was an amazing run in 3D. Looks like you're genuinely having a good time 😷👍

Excellent!!! I got very excited watching you go through the gap between trees. Very happy to see the pros are entering 3D world. Can't wait next episode.

I can definitely see how you’re a professional, you picked that up so quickly!!

Now i'm glad i started with 6Ch Heli , and Eleven years after that , i saw Some of Your Video . Now here i'm ... On The Drone. xd

Awesome fun video. Very smooth transitions and upside down flights, especially for first timer. Thanks for all the fun videos. Shows me what's possible. I'm still working on normal flips and rolls. Happy flying 💖🤓

This was really fun. I love watching people try 3D for the first time.

If you don’t have any 3d props. You can turn the props upside down on motor 1&4 , It will help with thrust when inverted. Awesome video Paul 🤟🏽

Dude you actually did really good at your first attempt at 3D , i know when i tried it it was disastrous and i never tried again lol , awesome bro 👍👍

I'm torn. I'm a commercial Heli/private fixed wing pilot, currently grounded, and just beginning my FPV journey. I'm hoping to have my first quad soon. Having watched the few 3d videos (yours, Zoe's, Rotor Riot's), I'm 90% sure that the secret I learned to inverted flying will translate to flying quads. However I don't want to give it away before I'm 100% sure and I am hoping to focus on 3d flying, so who knows, it might be my claim to fame in the FPV world :P. I'll try to get a 3d capable quad as soon as I can so that I can share with the world if the physics line up.

So sick! I not gonna lie, i scrolled down in search of Zoe Fpv comment.. 😅😁

LMAO! That intro was great! I have found the best way to start is line of site to recognize throttle points and then go in the goggles. After that, we only stay inverted for .5 to 2 seconds then get upright. Do that untill you are a pro, then try other things like hovering inverted, forward and backwards flight. Then you will be flying 3D DamFast!

I really want to see 3d used more cinematically, I think the potential to hardstop certain movements will look really cool and provide unique shots

3D is amazing! Must have!

Woah! You are a quick learner! Keep pushing the 3D! 3D forever!! This niche hobby needs to grow!

Was fun to watch you give it a shot. Good job too. Especially w those props lol.

Zoe just posted about flipping two props upside down (on opposite corners) so you get equal positive and negative thrust with non-3d props. Might be worth trying.

So fun to watch..I have a couple sets of the Zoe 3d props but figure I'll do the sim thing first in Liftoff ..cheaper and less repair time trying to get used to flying upside down using throttle like a collective pitch heli...😷

That!!! Scream!!! When you flip over is crazy insane

this is what Ive been waiting for ! awesome video , great flight

do your batteries get killed faster on that setup since the props arent as efficient upside down?

Looked like a good time. I've often wondered if I would like 3D due to loving to fly 3D helis back in the day, hum? Enjoy the Breeze...👍🏻🍻👊🏻

I'd imagine somewhere on the way to Nurk's house right now, there is a postal truck toting some Zoe Zurple Gemfan 3D Props. When they seen the name Nurkkala on the order, they went into their secret stash and got out some of the props with the extra Unicorn dust in them that adds +100 magic GoPro crash protection. Looking forward to more 3D vids!

Nice

Perfect Video for me! Legit just got my Zurple 3D Props in the mail yesterday, gonna set it up today and fly it tomorrow. Ordered 4 sets, because I'm sure I'll have plenty of crashes in my future.

Nice sticker on the TX!

Supper nice.

Good on you for having the courage to learn new things even if it's super difficult! Your workbench stresses me out though DX

Thanks for making cool content dude.

Try flipping two props upside down and leave the other two right side up. Equal thrust booth directions. No 3D props needed. Boom!

Craaack 🙌🏻🙌🏻

the reverse throttle sounded like a choo choo train

Sykk vid kidd👊🏾

There is no way I'd have the co-ordination to do that, it's hard enough not crashing in "normal" mode !

You are nuts flying so close to you. I'll probably be hiding in a baseball dugout whenever I try 3d. Lol! Great job man!

After watching this Video, it's inspired me to try 3D Flying. The throttle is the thing I bet gets everyone confused when starting, but great video Nurk!

I get like I've been building 3-D helicopters all my life I fly drones now I have not known that drones had the ability to fly inverted I now need a 3-D drone thanks for this

Where are all the people??? How is it possible that such huge green field is empty of any person? In my place, even in the desert you don't have a privacy))) Very nice video!!

You`ll make it, you´re the best XD

3D is my fave. A whole nother dimension to twist your brain cells :)

Really nice for a first try. Just need them props and your set. Should of tried the 2 upside down props like Zoe did. But still can't tell if it was actually an April fool's or not lol

3D is something Ive thought about and think that it could be the most complete freedom of flying a drone but I just don't want to feel like a noob again and I haven't even achieved what I want to flying normal.

Great start Nurk. I'm guessing by the sound you used standard props for that first flight as when inverted it was screaming with such a loud screech. If you really want to get more practice while inside get yourself something like a Flourien H101, they are well cheap and toy grade but it will give you a better way to get used to the controls, or you can use Liftoff and fly inverted without a real life drone.

So cool. Gotta build me a 3D rig now!

I loved watching this! I guess, I will need to convert one of mine also! thanks for this inspirational video

i'm learning 3d too. QUICK TIP - set your throttle using a pot. I turn mine down to 70% and make good progress.

Great job,,throttle management will be easier especially inverted with 3D props. When doing freestyle I sometimes get so disoriented all I see is blue sky so I set up a bailout switch which basicaly goes to angle mode with added throttle programmed for a mild to moderate climb till I get my orientation back. I practice Line of Sight too which is useful.

Screw around with it in Liftoff first, 3D props are not hard FPV (wouldn't do it myself LOS) and no sacrificing real life parts to build up the skillz. Spring load your throttle back to center, that's probably my biggest problem because I'm too lazy to do it. When you want to kill all throttle your motor memory has you slamming the stick all the way down, which is of course all the way in reverse, so you need that spring back to center on throttle. Changing your motor memory that throttle center is zero throttle is probably the hardest barrier to get around. 3D is fun but not as useful as one would think it would be (yet! anyway), mostly because of camera angle. If I had multiple cameras and camera angles, it would be way more flyable. With only one camera stuck at an angle of 45, I end up going back to Acro mode for relaxing cruising with more throttle travel and therefore throttle resolution under and around tree trunks. Add more front facing cameras to a 3D quad, esp. a beast class, and you have one aerobatic monster. Try setting your cam angle at 0 for 3D aerobatics, see if that helps. Otherwise like with my favorite 45 cam angle, reverse actually has you going down AND backwards (visually in the view finder). Really for 3D flying what we need, is a video feed like the old skool full page displays, with the 0 angle centerline splitting the middle of the screen. That way to fly fast with tilt forward, your eyes can move to the top of the screen... to fly fast backwards at tile, your eyes visually can move down to the bottom of the screen. I'm theorizing but I think it might work. So I'd be trying to build some wild custom ground station to fly 3D out of a flatpanel computer display turned 90 degrees and sunshade: www.google.com/search?tbm=isch&source=hp&biw=1536&bih=707&ei=a8uLXvfuHOPr_Qa-7byYCA&q=full+page+display&oq=full+page+display cg.air-war.org

That should be soooooo weird at the first lipos 😂

I just started 3d too! Crazy awesome!

Great video thanks for the inspiration and knowledge... waiting to get my first fpv drone, just got the mavic mini a few months ago

That looks really challenging!!

Seriously... zoe did this and it works. Flip any 2 diagonally opposite prop upside down. It will fly so much better with non 3d props.

I thought it was pretty interesting that another KZfaq channel released a 12s quad video 1 day before Nurk did

Great video... thank you! There is so much potential with 3D to make mind blowing videos... when are we going to be seeing 3D bandos on a regular base?

Nice flying for first 2 batteries. Watch out Zoe Fpv 😮

Before trying to thread between things try turning upside down and doing orbits since theoretically your turn ing is reversed as well

Quick question. Would neutral throttle be in the middle position now instead of the bottom? Thank you. Food for thought; This could be a new challenge in certain legs of a drone race.

i feel like the software correcting stick orientation when you are upside down would help so much !!!

Nice. Now push the industries to focus more on 3D. :D Need to start flying my 3" inn 3D. :D

Maybe I'm crazy but wouldn't centering springs be a good idea for 3d tx's

Sounds like a screaming Banshee 😂

Two questions: Is 3D legal in racing and would using it for turns improve lap times due to not having to 'flip over'? For example doing "S" turns without having to roll to the other side... or not having to flip over to complete a Split S...Hmm....

Old Bullnose Probs also work fine in 3D

So like, for altitude management.......when you switch to 3d and set a throttle expo, does it apply it to both throttle ranges? or do you get a seperate one for each? or do you have just a big squiggly line in the throttle expo graph????????

A dive upside down then stalling at the bottom and reversing back up through something would be sick af

🤯

Is it a thing where you can put it on a switch for normal thrust/3d to maintain throttle throw/resolution? Instead of the half and half. That would be cool.

I'd need a different control scheme if I ever really get into 3d. My best experience with it so far is on the sim using a steam controller. Gyro tilt assigned to pitch/roll, left thumbpad yaw, then left trigger for positive thrust and right for negative.. I've yet to find a way to use a steam controller on a physical copter

I'll go change the setting of my FC firmware and ESC's and try ^^

WOW, IF >>YOU

What's next Paul 3D pitch heli 👌

Would flying 3D possibly affect your normal racing ? Muscle memory get thrown off maybe ?

Also people should go check out Erodyo.

I have run regular props a fair bit for when I want more regular upright flying for effcient flying and sparingly use 3D mode. I do have 3D props as well and while it makes for pretty equal flying both upright and inverted it really kills my upright flying time versus normal props. I have had good luck with DAL 5249 Cyclones and Azure 6040 props for 3D use, at extreme throttles in reverse they are pretty unhappy but they can work better than any of the HQV1S props I have tried. That cavitating you hear on reverse punch outa is a sign of being super unhappy. Worst cavitating I have ever heard was trying DAL 6040 Cyclones. GOD AWFUL HORRIBLE.

My God, I finally got OK at flying prop side up now I have to figure out how to do it backwards and upside down? ????? LOL

Can I ask a question you know vr with the 360 camera could there not be a vr drone so when you fly you can look up down left right as if you sitting ir riding the drone would that not make it crazy real just wondering because you could upload and other people could ride along and while you did the flying I could put on vr look up down left etc that wot I would call realD flying

I just wish there was a possibility to set a 3D mode on the AUX switch, just like we can set angle mode.

3d so much fun than freestyle

I think it would be easiest to have the throttle stick be spring loaded and self center, how many radios come by default.

I really need to try 3d. I'm such a chicken

Are you CODING? or just taking notes to keep track of what you did/changed?

You probably have lots of GoPro :-) interesting! Not sure it adds much to the flying, shooting upside down is rarely better.

I would like advice on which new radio to buy today. i have a tinyhack, but later i will buy a digital system (vr dji and whoop hd). I'm undecided whether to be on the safe side and therefore a frsky x9d pro or on a radiomaster tx16s or jumper t16 pro. the radiomaster looks tempting for the price, but I don't know if to trust it. also because around there are videos showing the radiomaster tx tsg8 model which is poorly assembled and lacks components compared to the t8sg jumper. others say that frsky is an obsolete radio, so it has been announced that updates will no longer be released about 3 months ago. so what to buy?

Oh my

So cool nurk try me 3d fpv again!!

I am shaking and I not doing anything 🙂 Also the camera angle 🤔 What you supposed to do with it? I guess 0 degrees?

Do you see people racing with this in the future?

Is the pitch and roll the same when flying upside down or are they reversed too?

I want that dog sticker on your radio. Where can I get it?!

I feel the ultimate cheater that will do away with the need for a 3D rig will come from the Insta 360 One R. The instant I saw what they did with it on a DJI mavic making for a completely invisible drone I knew what is coming. StanFPV's cinebird is an amazing piece of work because he was able to put it all together with an existing 360cam and hide a drone in the blind spot. Freestyle rigs with the aerial edition 360 One R will completely change how we can manipulate shots. 3D easy mode in post along with easy backwards shots along with offering some other things I dont think we have seen yet.

What happened with the second part? 🙂 Did I just miss it, or are we still waiting?

after this....you gotta challenge the whole crue to a total inverted race!!! put a coupple gates in the mix that gotta be hit upside right!!! lol!!! and then every one has ta suk a 6 pack for round 2!!! lol!!! tall boys not no 10 oz beers!!!!

My motors just seemed to shut down. Any clues where I set up wrong. Admittedly I didn't change any deadband in motors tab or reciever bc idk. Betaflight 4.3.2

🤟🏾
