FPV Freestyle Reels

It’s that time of year again, when talented pilots put together the best of the best from the year in, what they hope to be, an impressive aerial reel. In the case of FPV pilot and cinematographer nurkfpv, it is certainly incredible and this is only his cinewhoop reel. Stand out shots include his “Envelopment” location at :15, a flight through a moving Ferris Wheel at :30, and floating through a massive tree at 1:13. 

This showreel rips! Including high-speed shots along the coast, tracking shots of BMX bikers, technical manuevers around windmills and cranes, scenic flights along the cliffs and through the fields, powerloops under picnic tables, and more it's quite the compilation by EngineerFpv.

FPV pilot Svinik007 brings the extraordinary into the ordinary with this super fun FPV reel!  What he refers to as "Everyday drone usage" seems to be anything but as he and his friends take flight around drift cars in the middle of the city, blizzard swept skyscrapers, and through all kinds of winter fun shenanigans in Russia.

It’s that time of year again when pilots put together their best-of shots from the year before. This FPV reel by pilot Steven_Fpv is certainly dynamite. Some of our favorite shots include the power loop he does through a tiny gap between concrete and the water at :30 and a dive down a massive tower shortly after, plus a few barrel rolling dives down the cliffside. This reel put Steven_Fpv on our FPV Pilots to Watch list in December of 2019. 

This FPV Dives compilation from pilot bajai elevates diving to a whole new level.  Flying from skyscraper to skyscraper, in the Kuala Lumpur skyline, he manages to surf an endless number of floors.  Take an air diving adventure with bajai and these high-rise super structures!

Who doesn’t love a great travel FPV reel? We know we do, that’s exactly what this piece by bjarnerimi fpv is. He’s got scenic water shots, including a rusted-out, capsized ship laying in the sea. There are tracking shots along the highway and out in the water, freestyle sessions along the tree lines and up waterfalls, plus plenty of scenic twists and turns along the way. See more videos like this in our Travel FPV collection. 

We love us a good Acro Mode FPV reel! Skyscraper dives? Check.  Car tracking? Check. Speed and agility? Check and check. Power looping bridges, barrel-rolling through the city, proximity flights through the forest and pushing the quads limits to fly through the clouds; this one, by Aerial RC, is a keeper. 

After watching this best of compilation, one thing is for sure MaxxxFPV had some great flights in 2018. From powerlooping cranes, to diving glass-covered skyrises and shredding bandos, to provo-ing buildings and ripping through some pretty tight gaps, this FPV reel is definitely worth a watch!

Enjoy this end-of-the-year, best-of showreel by pilot Drone Space Salento. The FPV pilot calls Salento, Italy home, which is why so many of his shots include the gorgeous landscapes the area is known for. The “heel” of the Italian “boot” is said to be home to some of the loveliest towns and cities that dot the sea in Italy. He’ll feature plenty of coastal flights, fireworks, raging fires, shots through the forests, and more in this jam-packed piece. 

FPV pilot and contributor Red—fpv continually amazed us in 2017 with his epic rip sessions.  One location after another, from a waterpark, to a grocery store, to an amusement park, and to a bowling alley...they all had an element of surprise. See them all in this sick edit!

This homage to 2017, from contributor CTJ87, combines a little camera with a little FPV freestyle to remember all the amazing aerial views from the year.  This reel contains flights from across the seasons and in a variety of landscapes with a nice landing at the end.

Filled with plenty of air-to-air action, tight gaps, and editing tricks, the 2018 demo reel by IronicGti is a must watch. The speed matched with his proximity flying is just the start of this one. Keep watching for bando dives, buttery smooth glides along glass buildings, and some long-range mountian surfing. We say touché, IronicGti, touché. This FPV video earned the pilot an AirVuz FPV Pilots to Watch nod in January of 2019.

Year after year, this FPV pro pushes her limits.  FPV pilot MaiOnHigh puts in all the hard work needed to hone her flight skills and her reel of 2017 contains all the best examples of it.  Watch MaiOnHigh as she dominates both on the racetrack and the freestyle zone.

From mountain surfing to bando ripping, windmill diving to total freestyle flow this 2018 FPV reel by pilot Davide FPV is one to watch. He's got the touch throughout the flight and shows off his technical manuevers mixed in with his editing style in the roughly four-minute piece. 

Ships, cars, and cannons... oh my!  Finnish FPV pilot Gespar really brings the action in this reel of his best flights in 2017.  Catch his intense speed and proximity as he flies around a massive sailing ship, race cars, motocross bikes, and some crazy stunts.

BauerOutage took us on a little tour of his down time during spring training in Arizona, USA.  Exhibiting his freestyling skills through the deserts, red rocks, and cacti this reel shows he wasn't just playing around!

Who doesn't love a good FPV reel? January is always one of our favorite times of year because pilots release their "best of" moments from the year before. This one by Team Mistral FPV's David Aspen is definitely one of those epic videos we're talking about. Whether powerlooping through bandos, diving smokestacks, gliding along the coast, or ripping over the mountains his flights are always spot on. This flight earned teammistral a Pilot to Watch nod in January of 2019.

For the ultimate footage of long range FPV flights, there's no need to look any further!  FPV pilot, KerniFPV, pulled together this compilation of some of his favorite long range sessions from 2018.  Throughout the year, he cruised mountain ridges far and wide — each with their own distinct attributes from rushing rivers, to crater lakes, and to snow-covered peaks. KerniFPV was named an AirVuz Pilot to Watch in December of 2018 for this video. 

Wondering what FPV is? AirVuz put together a collection of videos explain what FPV flying and FPV drones are all about. Professional First-Person-View drone pilots are capable of creating epic videos with their racing drones that are can reach speeds up to 90 mph. These quadcopters can fly in tight spaces and upside down while recording HD footage. Like hobby drones, FPV drones are controlled with a remote and goggles that feed the view of the plane to the pilot. Flying FPV is a skill that takes a lot of practice.

Opening with some tight, mountain surfing shots and dives then roaring out onto the water, check out this amazing FPV video by pilot Upsidedown FPV. The Drone Racing League pilot is capturing incredible shots of wind surfers as they compete in the Engadinwind. His compilation of highlights from the event include shots of rows of wind surfers racing and performing incredible tricks, flipping with their surfboards over the waves. 

Taking the time to create a compilation reel from two years worth of FPV flights is a daunting task; luck for us, pilot ChileVuela was up to it. This dynamite reel features plenty of long-range footage through the snow-capped mountains as well as mountain covered in autumn trees. He’ll also take us for a coastal cruise along the shoreline at golden hour, then dive down plenty of cliffs. The locations in this reel certainly make it worth the watch. This was an AirVuz FPV Pilots to Watch video in December 2019.
