It doesn't quite fit in the bag, but it's a good tool to carry, just in case.

Thanks a lot! It was fun to shoot, and I'm glad you enjoyed seeing it!

Yes. We had some great tacos a few weeks ago in Boqiillas del Carmen. Highly recommend crossing the border, if you're in Big Bend 🙂

Indeed :-) Thankfully, no damage was sustained.

I realized after the fact that I should have, but I sold that house about 5 years ago

Haha thanks!

No kidding! We were set up around where the arrow is pointing last weekend, and the water was about 50 feet from us, so it has come up quite a bit. Today it's about the same as yesterday, but we expect it to go down from here.

Thank you! Glad you like it, and I hope it was helpful.

Haha I hear you. That's what I get for deciding to record a walkthrough on a whim and not scripting it at all.

Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it!

Thank you! Yeah, it survived without a scratch!

@@FPVenius 👍👍👍👍

I agree; it's hard to believe this place exists until you see it with your own eyes.

Haha well put! Thanks!

Thanks!

Thank you! It takes a lot of practice, but it's a lot of fun.

Thank you! Yeah I realized that after I posted 🙂 I'll update the title since it doesn't apply. And I'll check out your channel! Thanks again!

Shockingly, there was no damage, just an unplugged battery. This frame is a monster; I've crashed it many many times and it keeps coming back for more.

Ah, I was wondering if anyone would notice 🙂 It was my Caddx Peanut acton camera. I was debating whether to draw attention to it or leave it as an easter egg. Thanks for watching! (And paying attention 🙂)

Thanks! I was wondering if anyone would notice

Thanks! I'm glad I have it in my toolkit now

Yeah, I've seen that before, but I don't think it would have worked due to how the drone was stuck in a perfect storm of the branches. I was throwing the wrench to get the rope over the quad so I could pull it down.

Thank you! It was a rollercoaster of a week

No kidding... The reason I went out to fly was to blow off some steam. It ended up being way more stress.

Thank you! Glad you enjoy it; I would highly recommend getting started. And you can step your way into it by getting a transmitter and simulator first, so you get your first few hundred crashes out of the way without having to do repairs 🙂

Oh, sorry if it was misleading, but in the description I pointed out that it was my kid who did it 🙂

Thank you! It was a great spot to get out.

Glad to hear you like it! I would definitely recommend starting with a radio that you can use with a simulator (RadioMaster Zorro, Jumper T-Lite, etc.) I use a RadioMaster TX16S, but that may be a larget investment than you want to make if you're just starting out. Once you have put in a number of hours (10 at least, I'd say) in a simulator, then something small and nimble is a good thing to move into. I love my TinyHawk II Freestyle, as it performs more like a 5" than a whoop, but it's small and light enough that when it crashes, nothing usually breaks. This assumes that you want to use analog goggles, as the THII has an analog video transmitter. I'm not aware of any small, prebuilt, quads that come with digital (in case you wanted to go with either DJI or HDZero; analog is cheaper in basically every way, but it has poorer image quality and generally better/more consistent latency.) This question is a lot to answer in a KZfaq comment thread, but I hope this helps. Joshua Bardwell has a TON of info regarding goggles, transmitters, etc. that can help you get moving too. Let me know if you have any specific questions, and thanks again for watching!

It definitely happens; I planted this drone at the top of a palm tree a few weeks ago. It took five days to get it down.

@@FPVenius Jeez, I see its pretty hard to keep it from falling in difficult places?

@@Knappy414 It sort of depends. With experience, there isn't really much risk of crashing in an open space like this. The palm tree situation was while I was doing a blind backflip between trees and miscalculated the gap.

By the way, here's the full video, in case you're interested: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/j5d5qdBzlsW3lJs.html

Exactly; this was a freestyle drone with an Insta360 Go 2 camera. Thanks for checking it out!

No kidding! This place is amazing. I can't wait to go back

Thanks!

You got that right. It was coming up through the roof vent and raining down off the awning when I got back.

Yea, talk about a real party pooper. Now you can't blame it on the dogs!

Sorry that it was unclear. When the flight ended, it was because the quad hit the water and stopped transmitting. The video you saw was the DVR footage from my goggles because the quad and attached camera were lost. Thanks for watching!

@@FPVenius ohh I’m sorry about your lost.

@@FPVenius what battery did you used?

@@emiliorh thank you; it was a 4s 21700 pack that I 3d printed a case for. The battery wasn't the issue though; because the water was so smooth, I misjudged how high I was off the surface of it.

@@FPVenius 😮 was too big and heavier for chimera 4, You should have used 18650 battery.

Ah, thank you. I must have misspoke.

Thank you! It's so much fun
