@Gianpa like when playing fighting games on a console? You're trying to execute the moves as precisely as possible, but your opponent is just mashing the buttons and beating you :(

Seeing the sticks makes a HUUUUGE difference. Thanks mate!

Best part is when joshua is trippin with orbit, rolling to the left? what am i doing? 😂

"roll to the left, pitch to the left... roll to the right... wait! what am I doing?..." that whole bit is priceless... seems this would be a good time for Joshua from the future to step in again!! :-D

It is confusing. The drone really is rolling to the LEFT and yawing to the RIGHT, but if you look at the sticks, they are yawing to the RIGHT and rolling to the RIGHT. But that's because the drone itself was already put in "left rolled" position, and Joshua's fingers just make tiny adjustments automatically. That's a good example of how we don't use our "thinking" brain when we perform a stunt (or any fast precision movement), we use our muscle memory without realizing what we are doing.

Just getting into FPV and I can't thank you enough for all that you've brought to the community! I'm learning a ton. It's also super fun watching this while working in the Liftoff sim map of your house... feels like a 1x1 training =)

Well said man! I learned so much from this vid I actually tried...and did it many times without crashing. That part is a lie. I crash but didn't break or lose anything! See you in the air

This confirms my feeling: making a perfect orbit seems to be much more complicated than it seems ! :-) Thank U Joshua !!

watched this video many times over the course of my FPV journey, getting back into it and reviewing old (but still relevant) stuff and today for the first time ever noticing your sign on your porch. Love that.

I am an FPV newbie and a recent subscriber. Your videos have gotten me through the binding process, switch configuration, and even getting my transmitter signal strength on my OSD!! Such wonderful resources you have created and shared! I also appreciate that you include your crashes in these tutorials. You are an amazing pilot, but even you sometimes nail the tree or have to bail out of a move. It keeps it real. :) Thanks for what you do!

Awesome tutorial. I love it how each trick builds onto the next. I’d love to see more flying tutorials from Bardwell

I'm one month into this little thing called FPV. The amount of information I've been able to learn from you in so awesome! Thanks so much for all the work you put into this. Also I've mentioned before I have the JB Phreakstyle and its incredible. Sadly broke an arm finally the other day....waiting for replacements

Best tutrorial I've ever seen. Joshua, thanks. I'm gonna try it tomorrow.

A lot of the FPV related videos I've been watching lately have been really focused on the tech and gear. Videos like this remind me of why I love this hobby.

Fantastic, as a none FPV pilot as yet, I can’t get enough of these tutorials bud. Thanks for sharing and please post more. Like an FPV for beginners.

You are the most technical drone pilot I know. Thanks for teaching us something.

After all these years, this is the first time I signed in and subscribed to any Chanel... good luck on full time KZread

This is just perfect for where I'm at;- not yet flown FPV (all my gear is now in the mail!), so I'm doing a couple of hours in the Sims per day trying to get prepared. All this gives me a whole lot more to work on. I just love your enthusiasm for this stuff - it's infectious. All the time you must put into these vids is very much appreciated. Thanks JB!

WOW...I was looking up freestyle tricks, watching older ones from Rotor Riot then all of a sudden JB uploads one! Nice timing and GREAT video!

Omg i was flying through the same arena in lift off today! Good to see it real!

Thank you man for making this fpv community so connected and inspiring.

Great stuff Josh, I would like add that when shooting gaps, the single most important tip is where to focus your eyes. Eye training, where to look when lining up is sooooo important. I have learned that you must look through the gap NOT at it. Pick a spot that is centered in your gap and well beyond the gap itself. It could be a shadow or a fencepost what ever but keep your focus locked on that until you have cleared the gap. Just like riding a bike, the further off into the distance you set your focus, the smoother your lines will be and the less last minute corrections will be required. Also practicing throttle and altitude control is an esential part of nailing gaps, practice flying a foot off the ground and maintaining that altitude while turning using a technique I call a flat drift turn, using yaw with very little roll mixed in to produce a flat drifting type turn.

Haha, orbit was the first move I learned. Great video tough. Gonna write down that list and spend a couple of packs practicing them everytime I go fly.

When I first started I made a list of all the things I wanted to learn over the summer. I just saw it a few days ago and was like “Wow”

Sweet man! You’re tearing it up!:) love that you leave the “confusion” in the video... had a good chuckle over that!

I personally love watching the way you vary speed of your flips/rolls. It makes it feel like slow motion

Excellent tips especially for someone wanting to get back into quads ;-) See you in the Air!

I love watching tutorials without having the things needed in that.

Get a used frsky x7 (I've seen them for sale on Craigslist around 60$) and liftoff for 20$. You can master these tricks before you even break a part. It really does help graduate you to a 5"

Having the sticks on screen is a HUGE help! Thank you!

This video (and your channel in general) is helping me out so much on my FPV journey. Seeing your stick inputs on the screen as you flew really helped my visualizations of what my own fingers need to be doing when flying. Thanks for the great video.

One of my favorites so Far thanks so much, helps a ton to see the stick overlays with explanation instead of the stick cam, it’s hard to watch sticks and video sometimes so it’s great how you explain as your doing it

Thanks JB. I will have to watch this a few (dozen) times. I have been working on my moves, and this has been VERY helpful.

So I learned something.. (even if you told me to dammit). =P Nice one man. My sim life is progressing much faster than I thought it would partly from your lessons... (now if I could just remember to sleep a little). I guess I should be firing up the actual quad soon at this rate. I just wanted to have good control before I go for real, so I can get into using my yard ASAP without having an incident with a neighbor lol.... Speaking of which... Dude... what is the reason you don't have fun obstacles all over that castle and in that field? If that place were mine it would be quad disneyland and the local power station would dip every time I plugged it in haha.

19:00 nooo what happened to the stick overlay? You keep talking about the stick positions, but we can't actually see them anymore. Especially for an instructional video like this seeing the sticks helps a lot in understanding the move and flow. It's back for #10, but somehow not for #9?

All I could think of during the Orbit-section was how the birds in the bird house feel like: "Maaaaa! That stupid noisy bird is here again!" "What is it doing?" "I don't know, it flipped over a thousand times and now it is just circling our house!" "God dammit, we should have stayed in Oakland..."

14:15 dont mind just a reminder where i where at the vid

Roll to the. No wait! Lol Loving seeing the stick positions when you fly. You are an exceptional teacher. Thanks again.

Coerced into sabbatical status for a while after being banned from local fly spot but have a new spot and I found this really helpful coupled with the muscle memory and ok deflection chops I already had. This helped make the transition from theory to physically doing these maneuvers way smoother than it would have been without it and with minimal panic and anxiety. Thanks Joshua, you're da best!

Joshua, it was awesome watching you mess up on some of the stunts. it goes to show that even some of the more skilled pilots, such as yourself, are still learning. Thank you for another great video.

Great help for beginners! Thanks!

Watching, sim training, DJI sale watching, and loving all the vids. Thx !

Thank you so much for doing this for the community JB. We just installed my RX for my Nazgul5 4S a few days ago and on the 2nd day of my flight I was able to try for the first time some rolls, a power loop, and hit some gaps because of this video. God bless and more power to you. Love here from the Philippines.

Fantastic tips, Joshua! Thanks a lot! 😃

Thank you so much for these videos🔥🔥🔥

I just started in the simulator today. Lift off and your video just helped me out a lot just by watching your stick movement on the screen. So thank you for that. Great KZread channel awesome content. Your videos have helped me out a hell of a lot.

You`re flying is amazing! I learned how to do power rolls from a video you had about a year or so ago. Thank you for the great teachings and flight instructions!

Great video, JB! Thanks for the info.

Great stuff brother, just starting out in fpv. This is my 2nd week in and your knowledge has helped me along the way to become a smoother pilot. Sometimes I forget to add throttle after completing a move, well we all know how that ends. Lol keep on keeping on 🍻

your a good teacher and great advocate for the sport.
