FPV Reels

JohnnyFPV is at the pinnacle of the FPV world.  He is a competitive racer, having competed on multiple DRL seasons and enjoying lots of airtime on ESPN.  Where he stands apart though is with his highly cinematic freestyle content.  He has traveled the four corners of the world, making epic videos and helping to create content for TV commercials and even feature movies.  Watch this epic reel and you will understand why he has by far the largest social media following of any FPV pilot.

The Dutch Drone Gods is a group of three very talented first person view pilots from the Netherlands: Ralph Hogenbirk (aka ShaggyFPV),  Vince Irie (Jedeye_FPV) and  Thomas de Koster (ThomasFPV).  In this reel put together by ShaggyFPV, you'll be treated to some epic highlights from their collective portfolio.  The reel features an impressive blend of dynamic, cinematic, and just flat-out cool FPV flight footage.   It was an easy decision for us to place this one on our FPV Pilots to Watch list in February 2020. 

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 and former Drone Video Award winner 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 was an easy pick for the FPV Pilots to Watch list in December, 2019. 

A first person view (FPV) drone reel of epic proportions, this compilation by top AirVuz contributor and FPV pilot Red-fpv was chosen as a Finalist for the FPV Freestyle Cinematic category at the second annual Drone Video Awards.  The epic piece has a little bit of everything - proximity flying, action filming, cinematic nature and landscape shots, plus a few editing tricks sprinkled in throughout-- making it the quintessentially well-balanced FPV reel. You're going to want to give this masterpiece a watch.

FPV pilot LouisHouiller treats us all to 90 seconds of the best in FPV freestyle in this epic video.  He packaged up his prized flights from 2019 from some spectacular destinations all over the world, and the proof is in the reel.  He chases mountain and road bikers and freestyle skiers in France, shows off his dives in an abandoned power plant, surfs along plenty of scenic ridges in Scotland, and chases down hills and dirt roads in the Dolomites; for all of this, we added him to our FPV Pilots to Watch list in April, 2020.

Instagram and YouTube star Stéphane Couchoud keeps it real about his first 6 months of FPV in this great edit. Starting out near Saint. Étienne, France, we witness his crashes and frustration, but quickly, we're treated to an epic reel full of cliff dives, cruising by a beach resort, tree dancing, mountain surfing, diving *through* a dam, and more.  We even like his ending message: "Don't try to be the best. Be authentic."  It's easy to see why we put this guy on our FPV Pilots to Watch List on April 2020.

Every drone pilot knows that making a great reel requires a lot of great footage.  And for every clip that makes the cut, there are countless clips and tough decisions that are considered. Knowing that, check out this masterpiece from carrerasdedrones: they've packed in fantastic footage of freestyle action over open water, cascading waterfuls, motorcycles and cars, and even some horseback riding.  There's plenty of FPV technique to take in and we were plenty impressed, so we put him back on our FPV Pilots to Watch list in March 2020.   

Apparently first time's the charm for this group of talented drone pilots from Italy. so watch their inaugural showreel and prepare to be impressed. Using backdrops from around their native Rome, they add an extra layer of excitement to the mix with their no holds barred flying around ruins, landmarks, motorcross bikes, jetskis, and so much more.  It's a lot to be proud of in a first reel and a blast to watch, so it's clear why Dirty Seagulls were picked for our FPV Pilots to Watch list in February 2020.

Don't miss the masterpiece by the highly skilled WestPsydeFPV, which our own phluxyfpv stated is one of the "most well-edited" FPV videos he's seen lately. This recap reel shows WestPsyde's favorite footage from 2019, showing epic freestyling moments in Moab, Telluride, and other scenic spots in Colorado; after watching it, we knew we had to name him as an FPV Pilot to Watch on AirVuz in January 2020.  Check out his AirVuz profile to discover all of the original videos for yourself!

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. 

We can all see pretty clearly that drone pilot RUFWORKS has been pretty successful at making *the absolute most* of his first three months of flying FPV drones.  Using his fantastically scenic backyard of Maizières-lès-Metz, France, and his desire for a new challenge in life, he clearly made his time on the sticks count.  Watch as his '3 months of crashes, labor, happiness, pain' have led to this FPV masterpiece...and that's why he was added to our FPV Pilots to Watch list in April 2020!

The very versatile ShaggyFPV seems to do it all...from professional racing with the Drone Racing League to putting his skills to the test with fellow pilots Jedey_FPV and ThomasFPV as part of the Dutch Drone Gods.

From mountain surfing to bando ripping, windmill diving to total freestyle flow this 2018 first person view (FPV) highlight reel by AirVuz contributor and FPV 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, very well-edited compilation piece.  For his efforts, this talented content creator was awarded a spot on the AirVuz FPV Pilots to Watch list in January of 2019.

Filled with plenty of air-to-air action, tight gaps, and editing tricks, the 2018 demo reel by top AirVuz contributor and first person view (FPV) pilot 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.

AirVuz contributor and first person view (FPV) pilot SteveK put together this stunning reel of two years' worth of his best footage.  The reel features an unusually wide range of epic FPV shots, showing the breadth of flying skills of this very talented pilot.

This reel put Steven_Fpv on our FPV Pilots to Watch list in December of 2019. 

Happy International Drone Day, indeed.  That's the message that goes with this phenomenal first person view (FPV) reel by top AirVuz contributor and FPV pilot elbuofpv.  The reel features a mix of cinematic, dynamic, and freestyle shots, mostly from around New York City.  Drift car chasing, crane and skyscraper diving, even buzzing the scoreboard at Citi Field - there's something for everyone in this fantastic compilation.  That's why it was chosen for the FPV Pilots to Watch list in May, 2020.  

AirVuz contributor and first person view (FPV) pilto François AVINENT brings us this fabulous FPV reel, one of the best we've seen.  The phenomenally well-edited piece features very clever transitions, but what's even more impressive is its mix of types of epic FPV footage.  It's all here - cinematic, tree proximity, coastal cruising, dives, formation flying, and all manner of technical tricks.  There's definitely something for everyone in this piece, which was picked for the FPV Pilots to Watch list in April, 2019.

Get ready for a pretty sweet aerial tour of Boston and a few other great spots in Massachusetts, courtesy of FPV drone pilot TRONCAT_fpv.  He shows off his freestyle prowess with some epic urban dives around some familiar landmarks, some rolls around some beautiful homes, and even a chase along the traintracks.  Putting the GoPro to work, his captures all of the angles, and even the sunbeams are perfectly behaved.  It all orchestrated into such a great flight we just had to show him off on our FPV Pilots to Watch list in April 2020.

Crispy clear footage of the all-out action is one way to describe this showreel from drone pilot MengaFPV...and yet another would be simply "epic".  From chasing through both the sprayed powder of legendary Olympian Martin Fourcade and the smoke of car drifting, cruising around the lines from snowboarders and skiers alike, and meeting up with a parachute skier (ahem) mid-air, MengaFPV is there for it all. We watched this vid on a loop and, for obvious reasons, went directly to adding him to our February 7, 2020 FPV Pilots to Watch list.

Banner_Drones clearly had a banner year in 2019, and they now have this 'fun-in-the-sun' gem from Miami as a sweet FPV souvenir.  Since nothing beats the view of that skyline, we're treated to plenty of dope cinematic shots of hangin' out on yachts, plunging into the ocean on water slides, and friends carrying friends while flyboarding.  But the real star is Banner_Drones flying around it all, and for that, he's been added to our Pilots to Watch list for January 2020. Check out all of his content on his AirVuz profile!

Summertime truly is when all the best FPV footage is taken. The ability to travel mixed with the wider variety of interesting locations makes it the perfect time to fly.

Then we’ll head out to check out some sailboats, a jet boarder, motocross riders, drift car racers, plus more in this fun show reel, which was an FPV Pilots to Watch pick in October, 2019.

This fantastic first person view (FPV) reel by top AirVuz contributor Flylifeco is all about chasing moving targets with racing quads.  Otherwise known as Dynamic FPV, it requires some very skillful piloting just to keep up with the subject, let alone to make entertaining video content out of it.  His reel features a broad range of "targets", ranging from mountain paragliders to skiers performing insane tricks, drift cars, MTB riders, and more.  This reel earned Flylifeco a spot on the AirVuz FPV Pilots to Watch list in January, 2020.  

Check out this first person view (FPV) freestyle compilation by AirVuz contributor and pilot eVolvE FPV. He’s got a little bit of everything in this AirVuz FPV Pilots to Watch pick. He’ll dive down ski jumps in summer, float around impressive architectural buildings, rip around empty gardens in fall, and use his technical skills to fly through abandoned work sites. One standout location can be seen at the 2:00 minute mark, where he’ll fly through the trees and an old landmark all covered in fresh snow. 

The Shendrone "Squirt" first person view (FPV) drone has become one of the go-to drones for "cinewhoop" enthusiasts, who seek to create high-quality HD video with drones that are suitable for flying in tight spaces including indoors.  In this piece by AirVuz contributor and FPV pilot Nick Lang, you'll be treated to some of his favorite "fly-throughs", in which he shows off the tremendous versatility and video quality of the Squirt v2.  This video earned Nick a Pilots to Watch nod in October of 2019.

Check out this high energy reel showing off drone pilot Spoon J's favorite FPV shots from 2019. His goal for the year was pretty straightforward: Capture the action and have fun doing it," and we all agree that he *nailed it.*  Watch the footage from his racing quad chasing after Monster trucks, dirt bikes, jet skis, BASE jumping, and more, and you'll see why this drone pilot has plenty of talent, heart, and adrenaline, making him a perfect addition to our FPV Pilots to Watch list in March 2020.

Check out this first person view (FPV) highlight reel by AirVuz contributor and FPV pilot Nubb FPV.  Shot over the course of about 15 months, the video features dynamic FPV footage from two settings: chasing drift cars and tracking freestyle motocross (FMX) riders.  Both of these activities are notoriously difficult to film with gimbal-stabilized drone-mounted cameras; they simply move to fast and don't allow for close-up shots.  For his efforts, Nubb FPV was awarded with a spot on the FPV Pilots to Watch list in August, 2020.  

Based on the spectacular footage packed into this reel, 2019 was a very good year indeed for drone pilot George FPV.  With just 2 years of flying quadcopters, he shows us how formidable of a pilot he's come with chase footage of drift racing, motocross, street cars, boats, and four wheelers.  You'll also see epic shots from the Port of Venice and the open water, showcasing his technical moves and amazing flow.

Top AirVuz contributor and first person view (FPV) pilot nikofilmz is one of the world's best when it comes to using mini quads to chase fast-moving targets.  Not surprisingly, this compilation he put together of some of his best footage following drift cars is a highly entertaining watch.  In most FPV drifting videos, the quad stays at a "respectable" distance from the target.  Not this pilot; see how he gets up-close and personal with these sliding vehicles.  This video made the FPV Pilots to Watch list in July of 2020.  

"Cinewhoop" style first person view (FPV) drones come in numerous shapes and sizes.  While some are configured to fly and capture HD video out of the box, one of the most popular configurations requires some homemade modifications.  Specifically, it involves taking a BetaFPV 95x micro-drone and mounting to it a "naked" GoPro, which is essentially the "guts" of the popular GoPro Hero series action camera.  See what these cinewhoops can do in this reel by Lougedo, which was picked for the FPV Pilots to Watch list in August, 2020.
