EPIC! Do or Die Long Range FPV
Vložit
- čas přidán 5. 07. 2024
- This was the most intense long range FPV flight of my life. My mind was set on flying through an ice arch just a few feet from a glacier. The fact that it seemed really sketchy and difficult didn't put me off, but maybe it should have. AND that's only half the story! Join me for this once in a lifetime FPV flight as we freak out, laugh and almost cry. All caught on camera by the commentary I recorded during the flight. Also includes DVR.
I used a RAD Li-ion build for this flight - - bit.ly/3MFoCdg

Powerloop pleas for the next time😜
GREAT FLIGHT and glad to be there in person to fly with you!! you are very inspiring
Thanks for being there buddy!
This is so wholesome. What a great advertisement for the hobby.
The Madonna Goggles pull through. That was amazing (and lucky) :-)
Aw man…. I know the feeling! I’m in Hawaii right now skimming the ocean and lava rocks! I’m so happy you’re sharing these videos as few know the agony of defeat and the rush of success! This is my favorite YT channel by far!
thanks so much for the comment!
It's amazing how pumped you can get from long range, I only go half the distance and still have the same reaction, especially in a new spot. I find it just as exciting as hitting a small gap close when attempting to freestyle or power looping through some trees . Loved the ice cave by the way, go for it or go home!
Well said! Thank for the comment.
I love that you pulled off the ice bridge flying blind! Epic!
I also love that you respected the mountain goats and didn't want to bother them. You're a great ambassador for the hobby.
Epic flight man! It's great to see you pushing like this
Oh man this is amazing! You are brave!
Beautiful scenery 👍👍👍
That was awesome! The definition of full commitment!

Crazy flight!!!
This is the best of the best of the best😂 I just cannot imagine what was going through you during those micro seconds. Blue skies my friend 🎉
I feel like these long flights should include a buddy rescue quad just in case 😂
Great flight old friend!
Wow!! Epic flight for sure. Love the goat sound FX too
Great video feed waaay up there! Cept that one spot😬 nice save!
You are maddddd!! Hats off!
Truly an epic flight! I've almost wet my pants watching you flying through that ice bridge. Sweet that you could see the mountain goats and still kept your distance. Thanks for sharing this amazing video! 🔥🙌🔥
Absolutely sick flight. Long range stuff has been something I have wanted to do for a while and seeing stuff like this makes me so much more pumped to go out this summer and do some flying
Glad to hear it.
That is such a great spot..a perfect straight up line of sight.
Bravo man! Inspires the hell out of me. Gotta love seeing those mountain goats.
Thanks for the comment!
Impressive flight!
Not bad, great videos, keep em coming 👍👍
Thanks 👍
Awww MAN!!! Your long range videos are AMAZING! The size of your nuts to push that far must hurt when you walk! Cheers buddy!
Loved this video, would kill to fly this location.
Outstanding!
Just awesome 👌👌👌👌
Yes, love it. I would have done the same. Glad you didn't lose that quad. We would have not been able to see this great flight. Thanks for sharing.
That flight was the goat!
Beautiful smooth flight my friend! Awesome!
Thanks a lot!
Wow.. awesome bro..👍 like it! 😍🔥🔥🔥
Breathtaking 🤩👏👏. I kept my fingers crossed for you at the ice bridge 😮💨✊✊. Epic flight 🥇🏆🥇!
Thanks so much for the comment! 👍
Loved it! Know the feelings well. Been a while since I've had the quads and long range wing out - too much other aviating in the mean time :-)
nice flight man !!
what you are doing is inspiring. In part, your long-distance flights pushed me to take up long-distance flights. So far, my longest flight is 1.5-2 km, but I want to go even further.
this is crazy ! heart stopped when you lost video ! what a save !
Thanks!
Great video! Loved the goats :)
This was INCREDIBLE
Wow well done that was so cool😂super my friend
You are the best!
@FalconRad, fantastic! I was at the edge of my seat through the ice bridge!
Thanks so much!
Great Video.
That was epic!
This was an awesome video! I'm really enjoying your videos and becoming inspired to keep flying and trying different things. I just recently built and AOS UL7 and am working on understanding it's limitations. I've got a couple upgrade energy Li-ion batteries on the way now. What a great shot through the ice bridge! I was internally saying, "come on man, throttle up!". Great flying and excellent viewing!
Thanks so much for the comment!
Pushing it a wee bit there. Awesome flight
Thanks so much!
what a epic LR flight! 🤘
Great flying bro
Thanks ✌
Great video👍
Thanks 👍
Absolutely stunning scenery and amazing flying bud! I was on the edge of my seat in that ice bridge. Just got into drones. Now I'm definitely getting a long range fpv! Cheers from a neighbor to your west!
Dude you made it on the JB and Blunty news!! well done your flying and drone build are amazing!
Oh ya, just saw that! Thanks for the comment.
Sick Spot!
Incredible seeing mountain goats! Not sure where you are but they’re amazing creatures. And BIG props to you for hanging out just long enough to get a good shot and then leaving them be. Love it!!
As an addition, the scene coming out of almost losing your drone was amazing! I know it was intense and hectic but wow I could have looked at that a while
What an epic flight that was! Holy crap i thought you were losing that quad under that ice bridge!!! Great save and another amazing flight man! Absolutely stunning!!!
Thanks 👍
Awesome mountain climbing flight. As I can watch this video I know u will be okie. I subscribed. Pls do more long range. Thank you.
Thanks, will do!
nice flyin' FalconRad
A real adventure!
wow, that was an epic adventure, the falls were just wonderful, the mountain goats were pure hollywood, and the ice bridge......lets face it they were a sanitation hazard hehehe. brilliant stuff, you got the shots under severe pressure.
Thanks so much for the comment!
Was worth watching the whole 12mins to seee your face at the end! For sure a epic flight! :)
Thanks so much for the comment.
Fantastic, I just wanted to fly half as far. I don't even have any lion yet. That's a great looking mountain to fly. I have been wanting to fly, Mont Lassen, Mtn Shasta in CA. Great FRAKEN dive. Thanks for the video.
I love this! 🙌🤮 mate i literally jumped up out my seat when you went under the ice bridge at the top 😱 gotta love analogue though how its so predictable like you knew the feed was gunna go :) top work man 👌👌🤙
Thanks very much for the comment!
you are the best!
Great video! Seeing your footage here and I would like to buy my own cinematic fpv drone!
That was super cool how the bigger goat was trying to shield the smaller one from view.
Also want to mention again that your spot is absolutely breathtaking and your flights highlight how beautiful it is. They should use your shots in tourism videos.
Thanks so much for the comment!
WOW, that was seat clenching... I think I ripped the seat from gripping it so hard! Crazy flying there 🐐🐐🐐
Thank so much Brandon!
This channel is the most inspirational FPV channel out there, for me. I'm in BC too but haven't set aside the time and effort to do such adventures. But you give me hope! So whaddya think of going to Walksnail for such distances and proximity?
I'm wary of the video reset time when the signal is lost. It takes a while.
amazing
Hahaha that got my palms almost as sweaty as if I were flying it myself. Nice job :)
Thanks so much buddy!
Grady brought me here, you are a bosssssss!
Such a beautiful spot!
awesome location and flight dude xD you should also get a wing - this is the perfect spot :)
I've been thinking about getting a wing...
Verry nice video!!! 🤩🤩🤩🤩
Thank you!
I just subscribed I am from India and really like these long range fpv drone videos of yours and also when you keep talking and explaining while flying drone meanwhile.
Thanks for the sub, and the input. I do plan on making more videos like that.
Wow!
