JohnnyFPV has taken out his mini quad and is getting all the angles at a Formula Drift event in Orlando, Florida, USA. His proximity flying in this piece is no joke; at certain points in the flight, the professional drone pilot gets so close to the windows of the cars you think he’s going to either break the window or crash his quad and watch it shatter in a spectacular fashion. Leave it to Johnny to get just that much tighter and make drift chasing that much more dramatic. 

JohnnyFPV does it again! With promises of a good ol' fashioned face-melting, he kicks things off with some slow-mo action of his nimble quad flying through that thick tire smoke on the track below.  Keeping his racing drone in close proximity to the speeding drift cars, he shows absolutely no fear and has his expert-level flight skills on full display. Get right into the action in this wicked drone chase with the very talented and world renowned drone pilot JohnnyFPV.

DRL racing pilot JohnnyFPV went to South Korea and happened upon this massive building complex bando.  As seen in this freestyle footage, there are *quite a few* vacancies in this spot.  He glides smoothly from floor to floor, and building to building in his classically juicy style full of perfectly executed flips, dives, and rolls...classic JohnnyFPV.  For obvious reasons, this video was voted to a win in the AirVuz Drone Video Award in the Freestyle category in 2017.

Kiteboarding is the action sport that combines aspects of snowboarding, windsurfing, paragliding, skateboarding, wake boarding, and sailing all into one very extreme sport.

JohnyyFPV captured two kiteboarders making their way across the water, then sauces it up with some fancy, tight tree proximity flying and skyscraper diving in this aptly-titled flight. 

The video title say it all - racing drones *ARE* indeed insanely dynamic.  AirVūz FPV Pilot and FPV Drone Video of the Year winner JohnnyFPV takes his customized racing quad out for a spin around a luxury Mercedes Benz sports car and behind a professional biker as he navigates - in complete control - off course. He'll then wind thing down with a little tree-proximity flying near Miami, Florida in yet another incredible cinematic FPV video from this talented pilot.
