I decided at NAB that I wanted to learn FPV. Five weeks later, as an absolute fpv beginner I've crashed in a simulator more times than I can count, lost a $700 drone on a mountainside, forgot to put an SD card in my goggles, and accidentally hit slo-mo on my camera during the one moment that would have made great content.
This was supposed to be several videos. It became one.
This is my full unfiltered journey of how to start fpv from absolute zero — from the first terrifying seconds in the simulator to finally flying smooth at sunset without losing the drone. The goal: get good enough to fly with the GoPro Mission ILS by the time it drops in Q3.
Gear used:
iFlight Nazgul Evoque F5 V3 (DJI O4 Pro, GPS, 6S)
RadioMaster Zorro controller
DJI Goggles
Uncrashed Simulator
Lessons learned the hard way:
Always have an SD card in your goggles
Start in acro mode if that's what you trained in
Angle your camera DOWN so you can see where you're going
Fly in a giant open field, not near mountains
GPS return-to-home will save your life
