    A training tool that helped me a ton was scaling my power down in betaflight to 60-70%. These quads have so much power you end up spending more time trying to manage your throttle instead of flying smooth and conserving momentum. It also give you more throttle resolution and added flight time to get more laps in.

    The parts where Evan just stops before the gate or reverses and goes around to do it again as he's explaining is what really demonstrated just how much control he has over the quad. It's super impressive.

    I had a similar experience.
    Spent 3 days on track at Portimao on my motorbike.
    I spent time on track and sat next to Dean Ellison (racer and coach). I became, smoother, faster and later on the brakes just by taking some techniques.
    These sort of opportunities are invaluable.

    I’ve been in a huge crossroad on what to do now in fpv. I like to freestyle but I have been more and more wanting to build up a race rig and see what happens with that after some race training. However I just went digital and don’t have my analog stuff anymore….( I know stupid to get rid of it but unfortunately financially it wasn’t really possible at the moment. Don’t know if I should still build a race rig on DJI/ just get a analog adapter/ or save up and get a analog goggle set

    • @Infernokron
      @Infernokron Před 2 lety

      You can start with an analog adapter for the DJI goggles. The most important thing to do for your first race, is to just go, don't worry too much about showing up with the "right" gear. Get out to a race, talk to the people there, check out what gear other people in the area are running. Half the fun of racing is hanging out with a group of people interested in the same hobby as you. You'll also have a much better idea after your first race of what direction you want to go, both with gear, and FPV in general.
