Mr Steele is one of my favourites - not sure it's all entirely legal!

Love watching Mr Steele's vids!

Johnny FPV very good is well - bit more focus on cinematics -



He does some really good stuff with drifting that's on his channel too. Incredible the shots they get.

Been flying a DJI drone for a while now been thinking too long about making some proper cinematic landscape videos, this is my first effort -



Let me know what you reckon.

Only really intersted in cinematic FPV footage, Mr Steele makes me feel motion sick although clearly very skilled

Horizons are a bit slopey!

Footage is fine but the thing that would make me watch more would be some spoken commentary. I can't imagine that if you were there in person watching the video with some friends or family you wouldn't say anything.

Cheers for the feedback! Yeah that first shot in particular has quite a slopey horizon which is odd because the drone is normally pretty good at being level. Think I was too focussed on colour grading to attend to this - need to keep an eye on that and fix in post.

I get what you're saying about commentary/human element but for this I wanted it to be a meditative video. Talking would just break that up, unless it was a poem or something. Not against trying to get a bit more story into new videos though.

Just my personal opinion but that’s rubbish. It’s like the first time the guy took it out of the box and gave it a go. You could probably edit that down to 10 secs of cool stuff.

That’s more like it.

JohnnyFPV is only good if you don’t get motion sickness.

If you’re not sure if you do, his videos will soon tell you hehe

Yeah I didn't realise how motion sickness could affect people until I was showing a mate that Sky's the Limit Johnny FPV video. He was quite impressed initially then quickly looked a bit peaky and asked me to turn it off!

The FPV stuff can definitely be a bit hard to watch when they start doing the acrobatic moves. Sometimes it's just plain boring/weird to watch. A good one of Mr Steele's is his house virtual tour. Considering he did this on a 5" race drone it's bloody impressive. Likes his cars as well which is cool.
