Massive respect for actually going through the whole process Bardwell, it's important for people to find their own comfortable way of doing it!

Ending camera angle is pure genius. Well done and good video concept!

the way he was talking to the quad in the tree was funny af

Goodness this move is hard! I probably have less than 30 attempts at it and I pulled it off with ease in the sim which really didn't do anything in helping me improve in real life. Thanks for this Joshua, you reminded me that we are all human and if we wish to get better at something we need to keep working on it. 💪

Excellent video - I definitely want to see more of this irresponsible droning!

REALLY enjoyed watching someone with your ability struggle a little. Gives me hope. Also, best wrap up video angle ever done.

I really appreciate you posting videos of you learning/struggling with something. As a new pilot I often get discouraged. This shows me the best even go through a learning process. Please keep doing what you do.

So glad you shared all of the effort that it takes to make a little progress on new things in the hobby!

You picked the one trick I haven't even attempted but would love to learn. The beginning of this is what I anticipated. This is greatly appreciated JB.

Great video, nice concept and execution.

Kudos! Well done, Joshua! :) It's a very hard challenge because of the other tree's close proximity and being quite close to the ground, but you did it! Now I am awaiting your challenge in return! :) Whatever it may be, might take me a while because I usually don't fly in Winter, but whatever it will be, challenge accepted, JB! :D

Awesome flying, Joshua! 😃 Thanks a lot for all the tips!!! Happy new year! And stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊

Great video sir!

Thanks , another GREAT Video. Im Learning alot from this CHANNEL

JB, keeping it real from the start, Happy Holidays

Hell yeah JB! 🤘🏼😤🤘🏼 This is my favorite part of FPV - the journey to the trick. The wins are always the best after a gnarly struggle. ❤️‍🔥

Great video JB thank u.

Great video. As someone just learning about FPV and considering buying their first drone, getting a sense of this process got me really excited. This looked like a blast.

Hahahah... that is so awesome... giving me hope JB!

This is great! I am about at this stage too, trying to wrap my head around the coordination of thrust, pitch, roll and yaw both in theory and getting a feel for it.

O really like this kind of video, help a lot to see the process from the start and how with every try you improve the moves.

"It didn't hit you, it landed on you." 😂

Nice! Definitely best to practice this in sim before real life, not an easy trick. Super in-depth showing the process, cool to see your progress. I always have to practice a few to get them clean as I change my tilt all the time depending on how Im flying. Getting them, just keep that roll and throttle pinned 🙌🤙props for doing them so low!!

That ending camera angle! 🔥

Joshua, your like my mentor from another world! I did my first backflip and almost wet my pants with joy the other day, hehe! Seriously, thanks your a diamond geezer and i learn so much! vertical and spin round a tree, insane!

I absolutely loved the way you ended the video 😂.

Nice Josh! I haven't completely conquered it where I can work it into my lines yet but the SIM has helped me astronomically! (I must admit my love for UnCrashed :)

Really enjoyed watching this video. Always wondered how this trick was done.

NGL, this is a great video. I'm happy you figured it out. But, it's good to show this process so that we all know that this is normal when learning. It's going to giver more people motivation to see this and make them want to learn a new trick or something like that.

Love this, it could be a series. Maybe guest pilots with their signature tricks also would be really cool

Awesome job! Glad to see I'm not the only one who shoots past, and leans back to enter the spin. Almost everyone else I saw in IGOW, would yaw spin into it, like you tried at the beginning

its always about getting the picture in your goggles when i was learning them i strugled with getting the power on right once you get it its a great trick your almost there there is also no wrong or right way its what feels right for you the last one was bang on great video

that last bit about setting a challenge to achieve is a life lesson

That was a fun video. A trick I’ve been thinking about myself. And it was reminiscent of just being out in the field and flying with friends

I have my angle at 15/20 degree so i can trippy, matty and backwards flying. Backwards flying is hard ifur angle is too high. U can also powerloop into a trippy. Throttle needs to be alittle higher for low camera angles which make it seem harder.

Love this video! 2 tricks that I struggle with is the Trippy spin & Matty flip! I usually stop because the quad takes a beating especially the TBS immortal antenna!

+1 for showing it takes a hundred tries to matter a new trick even to you +1 virtual kudos for using the tree landing for your outro

Great trick👍

Atta boy Joshua. This is definitely one trick I haven’t completely mastered. I can do it one time and not the next. I guess I’ll get there eventually lol.

The fun though practicing!!!

(gonna try not make one of my idols of fpv mad this time 😆) Great video, love seeing you challenge yourself, it inspires and im sure other to do the same keep up the good work you are doing wonders for the fpv community ❤️

thanks, JB

you inspired me to pick and learn another freestyle maneuver , not the trippy spin ,not there yet lol , thanks for another great video

This was great I can literally feel and relate to the exact frustration in this video. This was amazing to watch. #NeverSurrender!

"Great video idea, Bardwell. Watch you crash a thousand times." You're goddamned right. This is the material we need.

that ending HAHAHAHA it will be very philosophical if you end every video like this. 10/10

this is super cool :D

If only I could subscribe again. That outro was too funny.

6:50 sure we get to watch you crash 1000 times, but I appreciate this video. As a guy just starting out and still not entirely feeling in control, even with the basics, I appreciate seeing this type of content because it shows that I’m not the only one struggling to learn something new.

Hell yeah you got it

Camera uptilt and horizontal FOV is what makes it easier. Do a cradle around the tree to lock in and the push the sticks either away from each other (anticlockwise) or towards each other (clockwise). It's really just flying around the tree backwards in a circle, but at a high angle, so you are going quite fast and need a lot of throttle

I like the shoulder roll entry. I also fly with 15 degrees up-tilt like a masochist, it requires so much throttle at that camera angle!

6:50 You jest, but I don't fly with anybody, so this extremely helpful to see your thought process as you learn a trick!

bubby got us out here raising the bar

Great episode. Would be good to see your stick movements. But maybe next time. 😊🍻

We don’t have many bandos in SoCal but we do have lots of palm trees, which has to be the easiest thing to trippy spin!

(I)Responsible droning sounds like a great Tshirt idea

Thanks for sharing your suffering learning the trippy spin, I'm suffering just like you hahaha, many prop packs are dying for the trick!

Next matty flip 🔥

I can do it in the Sim and it's weird to transition into it but you remember how you said you can turn a corner with pitch only if the quads 9n is side and at an angle? Use that to center you object to orbit and use that to slowly invert. It hurts the brain less to grasp. I've done it at 20⁰ and 50⁰ uptilt and both ways results the same stick input. My throttle is 80 to 100% with a smidge of yaw to the right if I'm orbiting left(counterclockwise) my pitch and roll stick is 55% pitched up and roughly 60% rolled right for a counterclockwise orbit. Slowly play in that area and if clockwiseorbit it's mirrored to the left. To gain hight and to get closer to the object pitch up a little and slight lower it under 50% to drop down some and slightly back off the orbit. This is what works for me and it's the way to you orbit the quad with pitch instead of roll is what works to transition into invert. Master this and then do a rewind into an 8nverted orbit

Try entering with a woop de doo look back. Thats the easiest way I found to get into it. Good stuff man.

I like the new tripod.

How you approach is unique to each pilot. Ive been approaching from the right and orbiting counter clockwise. Idk. Im still learning. My prob is gaining altitude to fast.

Cool trick. Id like to learn this but im not gonna put myself through this till next summer lol

Deep respect to you and those who can do these tricks! Could you maybe set up a gopro or any camera pointing to the general area of the tree that you do trippy spin at? Just to get an idea how the quad should actually orbit around it. It's a bit too much to ask i know😅😅 thank you Joshua～～

I think watching you suffer gave me the motivation to learn something today. Thanks for all the great videos... now where is that soldering one I came here to watch so I can fix my quad. Cheers XD

i finally did it myself i did the 97 attempts in sim tho and it took me like 5 trys to do it for real after the hard part is to get into it im now trying to do it the otherway round ^^ i think the spot makes a really big difference you want a very high tree with like 10m space around it finding that is hard tho pine trees are best cause they dont have much scraggle on the lower parts

Your birdhouse would be great for practicing trippy spins. Also, I use throttle to maintain height (and not angle). And yes, you do have to throttle up a bit to maintain height.

Respect

The trees around your house must look like christmas...

So easy to triply spin in liftoff and other sims lol...Ill take this video as my Q to try it with my skyeliner HD..I want to buy a smaller quad to beat on...with turtle mode of course... Also and just a running joke here i picked up on reading comments over the last 2 years...Bardwell if you would leave your yard there might be a single pole or tree that is better to practice that trippy spin lol....." I just wish that tree wasnt there"...next video the tree that was in the way will be cut down instead of Bardwell just going to another location hahaha lol...Awesome video Joshua! 😉🤓

Disappointed that we didn’t saw the drone rescue in action 😁

I dunno, I spent a few packs trying... using a light in parking lot... I could get maybe half... I figure i'm missing something obvious. although... I'm not really that big a fan of them. will try again now after watching you go through this.

Nice! You’ve motivated me to practise this trick, would be nice to have the stick cam on this one

Awesome

37.5° cam, going in with only yaw is the way i consistently do it in the sim. i have a nice new Rekon 4 FR i will eventually try it with but thats gonna be a long way away heh

08:17,,,🤣🤣,,,more jokes it is cheers up my office days,,tq mr hosua

Shoutout to the accidental trippy knife edge gap beetween the branches

currently trying this with a tinywhoop, with some tape stuck from the ceiling to the floor as the obstacle, that way if i crash in to it nothing breaks

This is awesome Bardwell 👌. Great job! Hey. I've tried trippy spins in the liftoff sim quite a few times. How does the sim compare to real life?

"I wish that tree wasnt there" grabs a chain saw..

Im coming from 3D RC Helicopters, and can only laugh at this

Nice improvement! Send me this 3"quad to tray the same! 😉

Well lookie there you can teach an old dog new tricks! Lol it’s a lot cheaper to learn them in the sim first. Well done sir!

You've might have managed the trippy spin, a feat in itself, but can you do the George Foreman Grill? A matty-trippy combo devised by the trippy spin master himself, Jacuzzi Jay.

Looks like u put that quad through its paces.. AND it did survive.. To give it a “TONKA” standing, send it to Ciotti.. if I lives through him.. I will EASILY buy one!!!😂😂

LMFAO @ 8:13 - that shirt....some kind of gang tag....😂 Awesome work on the trippy spin. Would practicing on Liftoff have helped at all?

Everytime I have a question in my mind, it is as if bardwell can read my mind and make the video the day after…

I find it much easier to yaw 180° to enter into it so you're facing at the same pitch as flying forward but just backwards

Dear goat, Could you make more tuts like this =) pls kind regards

There are many famous trees and this is one of them.

💛💛💛💛💛

Joshua, are your goggles v1 or v2? I'm curious because I know they use their antennas differently. I got the v2s, where should I put the patch antennas? Top ? bottom?

erods way is the best entry for learning trippy spins

Or my thinking orbit an krain arm and i must fly to the tip like an sideways loop but around an obiekt

Hi Joshua , is there any chance to get your microphone module you are using for this vlog .

All vehicles on Bardwell’s property are subject to sudden drone landings

Hi Joshua! You don't have winter? Or it was filmed in autumn?

I keep seeing that Speedybee adapter. Am I the only one using just a wire from my phone to the FC USB port? I find it easier than needing to connect to a wifi signal every time just to make some changes.

Fly in sim to lern - fly in real to enjoy 😊😉
