First person view (FPV) pilot Angelo Re brings us this unique aerial tour of his home city of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.  The video was shot while the city was virtually deserted during the Covid-19 pandemic in the Spring of 2020.  This enabled him to safely garner some unique views of the Steel City's iconic riverfront downtown.  Check out some of Pittsburgh's most well-known sights by FPV, including the Fort Pitt Bridge, Fifth Avenue Place, the Renaissance Hotel, the H. J. Heinz Company complex, and more.

The Store is a rocky hill on the Trotternish peninsula of the Isla of Sky in Scotland. Likely the most famous walk on the island, the “Old Man” is a large pinnacle that stands high and can be seen from miles around. It’s one of the most photographed landscapes in the world. You can see why in this quick FPV video by louishouiller. He’ll ride a line across the rock face, taking in the phenomenal views from an incredible and impressive angle.  This was picked for the FPV Pilots to Watch list in August, 2019.

While Norway is likely one of the most-droned countries, the vast majority of the aerial footage captured here is on gimbal-stabilized aerial videography platforms like the DJI Mavic series.  Far less common is a very different type of aerial footage: that from first person view (FPV) mini-drones.  Case in point is this FPV piece from OMJ FPV, whose highly cinematic footage from the area around Lake Lovatnet in Vestland County in Western Norway earned him a spot on the FPV Pilots to Watch list in August, 2020.  

Volcano Island in Japan

Volcano Island | South of Japan | Cinematic Drone Footage

PRINT LAB ...

Japan's Volcano Island is foreboding for most visitors - considering the oppressive heat, humidity, and volcanic ashes - but this remote spot called out to drone pilot Print FPV for some freestyle action. The island is in stark contrast to the Tokyo metro, to which it is approximately 750 miles south. Aside from a few empty roads, there are few signs of life of the 650 odd residents, making it a perfect playground for FPV and creating a video that would place this talented pilot on our FPV Pilots to Watch list in January 2020.

While there's no universally agreed-upon definition of "Cinematic FPV", we know it when we see it.  And we definitely see it in this stunning coastal cruising piece by top AirVuz contributor PimpmyKwad.  Filmed at sunset, this is FPV flight optimized for the viewing experience, which is the essence of cinematic FPV.  His silky-smooth flight takes him way out over the water to a number of mini-islands, approaching each one for maximum cinematic effect.  The flight demonstrates precise control but at the same time is almost hypnotic.

Like a number of talented aerial videographers, top contributor chrisnorway has expanded his filming repertoire by mastering first person view (FPV) dones, which requires a much higher level of piloting skills.  In this beautiful video, you will ride along with him in his DJI FPV drone to explore the landscapes of Western Norway.  The video was shot in and around Rogalund County, which covers a section of the southwest Norwegian coast and extends some ways inland.  This video was picked for the FPV Pilots to Watch list in June of 2022.
