FPV Pilots to Watch - April 30, 2021

Prepare to be blown away by this magnificent one-shot FPV video from the USA's largest enclosed shopping mall, compliments of the legendary Jay Christensen.  Shot with a "cinewhoop" style FPV drone, the video plays off of the 1994 movie "Mighty Ducks: D2", which was shot at the giant mall in the Minneapolis suburb of Bloomington.  In a continuous shot, he flies through the giant structure, catches up with a roller-hockey "team" cruising through the mall, and heads into the Nickelodeon Universe amusement park in the center of the mall.   

Top content creator and first person view (FPV) pilot Drone My Life made great use of 72 hours in the French Alps to create this fantastic mountain surfing piece from the heart of one of the world's most beautiful alpine regions.  Opening with a shot skimming over the crystal-clear waters of a mountain lake, he heads into the mountains for some great action skimming along some fearsome-looking rock ridges.  This video was tapped for the AirVuz FPV Pilots to Watch list in late April of 2021.  

Talented content creator and first person view (FPV) pilot Ivan Merino earned himself another spot on the AirVuz FPV Pilots to Watch list with this fantastic "cinewhoop" style piece filmed at a luxury resort in Mexico.  The video was shot in the Presidential Suite at the Hotel Beló Isla Mujeres.  The hotel features 70 rooms in a beachfront property on Isla Mujeres, a small island off the Yucatán Peninsula near the storied beach city of Cancun.  The island is about five km (around seven mi.) long but only 2k ft. (around 600 meters) wide. 

Get a unique perspective of the great city of Venice, Italy in this fantastic first person view (FPV) piece by top AirVuz contributor Alberto Ardit.  The video opens with footage of the Santa Maria della Salute on the Punta della Dogana.  Then, in a single shot, you'll fly across the Grand Canal to the St Mark's Campanile and the adjacent Basilica and the Doge Palace, before heading back across the canal.  This video was picked for the AirVuz FPV Pilots to Watch list in April of  2021.  

Each and every week brings a new wave of fantastic FPV videos to AirVuz, and we have the fun job of watching it all to share the best of the best with our enthusiastic AirVuz community.  We take our sweet time to then pick a shortlist of FPV pilots to feature each week, and we pack them into this cool reel because those we select are no doubt committed, talented, and they share their wares here on AirVuz (this is where the best FPV footy lives, after all).  So be a sport and *show your support* with a Like, Comment, and a Follow! 

In this fantastic first person view (FPV) drone video, shamkhal_fpv will give you a unique perspective of a famous spot in the Ukraine: the abandoned town of Pripyat.   This once-closed town was the home of the Chernobyl nuclear power plant, whose No. 4 reactor exploded in April, 1986.  Still considered the worst nuclear power accident in history, the explosion sent radioactive contamination across Europe.  The town, which was once home to 50,000, is completely abandoned.  This video made the FPV Pilots to Watch list in April, 2021.
