Hey guys! Welcome to this video in my How to fly FPV quads series. In this video I'll be going over the basics of turning your quad so that you can start flying around, along with some common errors and how you can fix them. We'll then go into the Liftoff FPV Simulator and see how we can practice your turns on there before we go out and try it in real life.
Enjoy!

Hey I agree with Derek, can you please upload your practice tracks to steam. It would been greatly helpful if the liftoff team had placed some drawing board learning maps in the game. By the way....Great work on the How-to Fly FPV series!!!!
Jack, you are very cool. You have done a very nice job on these videos. I an waiting on my first FPV, Eanchine 250 FPV, I ordered it for my birthday the May 13th. looking forward to practicing your drills. Thanks!

That link to installing a custom track leads only to the generic liftoff community page. To install track in Windows: 1- launch steam 2- right click on game then properties 3- local files tab 4- browse local files then get into liftoff_data 5- look for file called "tracks", if there isn't one create it with that name 6- place downloaded track into the "tracks" folder The track linked by Jack here is based off "Autumn Fields" map. To play the track go to "Free Flight" then "Autumn Fields" then you should see the Day 3 track in that list. Took me a while to find this info so I thought I'd share it here, I hope thats okay.

The best way to advance brake is full lock turn then let go as soon as it hits level facing the other side then pull up. This is how I learned how to do it over trees. What I need to practice next is doing it going backwards. The power loop.

Is it pretty common for a newbie to feel like I am sliding around on ice when trying to do those Yaw turns?
Thanks
Jack thanks for this tutorial! You have made a very good job. I have only one question: which setting are You use? I mean, are You fly on rate/acro or horizon/rattitude? It seems to be this second option but I am not sure...
I just bought a real flight 7 Sim kit as it is an older model I paid about $50 shipped I hope multi-rotor practice is on there.
what a star, thanks jack :)

Thanks for your video! Btw, is there any way to change starting point of the quad in LiftOff? It takes some time for me to get into the field :(
Where do you get your noodles, gates, and markers from? I'd like to setup a "make-shift" fpv race area in an abondanded field nearby, and really like the noodles and little markers you have on the ground. I think my piloting skills would increase greatly if I invested in some of these. Thanks, huge fan and sub'r here :)

Best you can probably do is put a 3S battery on your quad :)
I don't have a drone yet but on the sim, no matter how slow I am going, yaw wont turn unless i add a little roll. What is set wrong? Thanks for the video(s)
what rates for pid's are you using in the sim. also what are your rates for speed on pitch and roll?
Howzit! I know this is years later, but is your footage from a separate camera, or DVR'd straight off your goggles?
Nice video! How do record the angle and stick movements of the quad?

Great flying instruction dude, Im hooked. Question for you, I always curious how much, if any, expo on pitch/roll/yaw to use in my Taranis and how this is different from RC Expo and RC Yaw Expo in the Cleanflight Receiver Tab settings. Currently I don't have any expo entered in my Taranis for pitch/roll/yaw but in the CleanFlight Receiver Tab I have the RC Rate = 1.25 RC Expo = 0.75 RC Yaw Expo = 18 . The next chance I can get out with my Racer I'm going to try tuning it from scratch again and then see if I notice anything different with 5 - 10% Expo in my Taranis for pitch/roll/yaw and see how it goes.

Josh has helped me a lot too, he really knows his stuff. I have since played around with setting 10%-15% expo on Roll/Pitch/Yaw in my Taranis also raised D and lowered P while keeping rates the same. I beginning to think RC Expo in Cleanflight and the Expo that can be set in the Taranis on each channel do much different things.

Would be cool if you could share a video with your quickest laptime round each course. Just got a laptime of 21.68 on the first field map and feeling pretty chuffed, I have beaten 20 before but not while recording on my macbook air since it bumps the latency up so much. Would be nice to know what the more skilled pilots are getting

I've got to get a Taranis or something. I find keeping the throttle low enough in LiftOff really hard. I can do big, sweeping movements well, but small, precise ones are so tough.

Yes a Taranis changes everything. Controllers work nice and are a quick fix, but if you're serious about flying FPV you should definitely invest in a Taranis.

are you using thumbs? that's the noob way. you need to watch a video on thumbs vs pinching. only using thumbs gives you less precision and less dexterity. watch the video and find an easy way to pinch because I know some people don't like it because it's cumbersome but there are a lot of different ways. there is a pinch/thumb hybrid way.

Hi what folder is it that I put these maps in?
Wow interesting exercises! Very helpful for me and my friends. I've sent you question via youtube form (or google+ form) about translation of your videos. And now got another question, maybe it can be strange. Are there any problems with the law of South Africa regarding the drones? I'll be in Cape Town on March 4th. I'm Antarctic researcher and go on expedition. I want to take DJI Phantom and racing drone too. I want to know are there any problems at customs with drones? Can I somewhere read about it? Thanks a lot!

Hi, I'm having some minor issues I believe with my turns in Liftoff. I'm quite new to the quad scene and understand the mechanics involved theoretically. I have a Spektrum DX6 that I'm using and when I try just a slow flight and using just the yaw to turn the quad seems to lift and roll in the opposite direction from where I am trying to go. Example, I would want to turn right. so I would yaw to the right and the quad would begin to turn and face right but I would continue on my current projector until I pitch forward or counter with a roll. Is that normal? or have I messed up with something with my settings in the game or on the remote it self? I only ask cause I'm spending so much time in the simulator getting the muscle memory down before I go and crash my quads in r/l Thanks.

This is almost word for word la drib video
its not as easy as just putting yaw in. he never once showed what happens when the plane is a 45 and you yaw because in a head set it looks like it turns the wrong way as it rolls only on the y axis not x and y at the same time. it like having two flight modes where y becomes useless at any angle. i'm going to see if i can dual rate the sticks depending on what angle the quad sense just on y axis to see if you can simply yaw and it rolls at x. if i wanted to fly something so annoying i would have bought a two blade copter
