That's why I am playing with them now. LOL. I got my actual pilots license when I was in my teens. Now I am in my 40s and this is way more economical, lol. I am looking at it like my mid-life crisis, lol, without the sports cars and motorcycles, lol. At least with a drone, if I crash at 120 mph, I am safe, and my best friend owns a drone parts store, lol. The FPV crew I hang with are all a bunch of old grown up skaters and metal heads, lol.

Sort:  

Skaters and metalheads. No big surprise there. Was never coordinated enough to be a skater, but metalhead was something I was good at!

May have to get into the drone thing in the next year or so. Seems like so much fun!

Ah man it's a blast! I definitely recommend starting in the simulators for a while. If you want to go the FPV route, I would suggest getting a controller first. Most controllers will plug into your computer and connect to the simulators. I suggest Liftoff ($20 on Steam) for the sim. It is the best as far as realistic flying. Plus you can customize your drones to match the same spec, or close, to your actual drone. So like I use the same size frame and style, same motor size, etc, so that it feels as close to the real thing as possible.

Thanks! Yet another thing I don't really have time for, but will pursue anyways. 😀
