Waterfall FPV

Taking us out to Iceland to enjoy all that the island country has to offer is the talented AirVuz contributor and first person view (FPV) piloting crew teammistral. The team is specifically focusing on the waterfalls that the country is known for. Gushing over the rocks, the team will dive down the falls, behind the water, and over the entire area that surround the falls in this video. For their efforts, this vide earned them a spot on the AirVuz FPV Pilots to Watch list in October of 2019. 

Time to get up close and personal with Multnomah Falls, in Oregon's Columbia River Valley gorge, courtesy of FPV drone pilot mrgeeseeks.  Watch as he climbs hundreds of feet up, skimming against the picturesque waterfall, readying for his jaw-dropping dive.  After plunging down the initial drop, he  then continues on to the next stretch of the fast flowing river.  These dives showcase both precision and nerves of skill, making mrgeeseeks an easy pick for our FPV Pilots to Watch list in January 2020.

Are you ready for this heartstopping dive down the Dangar Falls in New South Wales Australia?  Talented drone pilot Croble FPV isn't holding back as he glides down the rushing waters of this waterfall.  As the recent rains had been plentiful, the footage reflects the magnificent, charging display of free flowing water. However, the falls have been known to go 'bone dry' when the precipation hasn't been as favorable.  Capturing this natural glory in its full on glory, he earned a spot on our FPV Pilots to Watch list in January of 2020. 

Have you ever seen a drone video from the inside of a waterfall? Pretty sure you haven't... At least, not until now! Top AirVuz contributor and first person view (FPV) pilot airblastr had this crazy idea to fly through the icy curtain of a waterfall.  Instead of just waiting for the urge to pass he actually did it, and the quad survived to tell the tale.  We are told that no quads were harmed in the filming of this video, which was a Finalist at the second annual Drone Video Awards' in the FPV Freestyle Cinematic nominated video.

Top AirVuz contributor and first person view (FPV) pilot VerJan FPV says the winds and rain were so intense that with each dive he thought he may not get his drone back again. But he did and was able to create this remarkable waterfall diving video. He was in Gudvangen, a village in Norway that is a popular tourist destination. It is located at the end of the Nærøyfjord where the Nærøydalselvi river empties into the fjord, creating the exceptionally beautiful waterfalls you see here from the perspective of a racing quad.

Check out the incredible scenery around Arakli, Turkey in this epic first person view (FPV) waterfall dive. Clocking in at under 15-seconds, the talented AirVuz contributor and FPV drone pilot tamtantrik is diving a gushing waterfall outside of the town, which lies in the Black Sea region of Turkey. The specific fall in this film is called Asmasu Waterfall. A local treasure, some have called it a top waterfall to see in Turkey. You can see more videos like this in our Waterfall FPV collection. 

This 4K drone video shot on a GoPro Hero 7 on a custom mini-quad is so much more than your average mountain surfing piece. Pilot bjarnerimi fpv takes his rig out across the snow-covered mountain to find a hidden waterfall, gushing the melting snow down a ravine to the lake below. His technical skill is shown off while he navigates the narrow terrain. That, mixed with the location and perfect flow make this an awe-inspring video to remember.

Catch this simple yet beautiful first person view (FPV) drone video dive over a waterfall, courtesy of Colorado-based AirVuz contributor and FPV pilot Flylifeco. He’s taken his mini quad out to Shoal Creek for a morning flight around the massive falls and the dam that surrounds them. The easy flying, matched with the visually-interesting location and technical abilities of Flylifeco (read: epic FPV diving skills!), put this video on our AirVuz FPV Pilots to Watch list for November of 2019. 

He’s been creating long range, flowing first person view (FPV) shots for years, well before many of our current long range pilots even picked up a quad. Top AirVuz contributor and FPV pilot Gab707 is a legend in the industry, creating this compilation of flights back in June of 2016. The 11 day road trip was made even more exciting because the pilot only had 9 lipos and no charger with him. Seventeen flights in 14 locations have made for one fantastic video flying over Iceland’s rough, rocky, water-filled terrain. 

Team AirVūz pilot and world-reknowned first person view (FPV) drone flier nurkfpv ventured through the Icelandic landscape with his trusty racing quad in this long range flight and happened upon an epic waterfall. Whilst diving and cruising in - and - around the rushing water, he has an unwelcome encounter of the drone fail variety.  Wondering how this gear fares in this challenging turn-of-events?  Check out his profile and watch his follow-up vids for yourself! Leave it Nurk to create a full fledged FPV adventure...

The charming sounds and landscape of the Krka National Park, near Split, in Croatia, stood in as the setting for several of the scenes throughout Season 5 in HBO's series Game of Thrones, as the waterfalls, streams, and wooded areas gave just the perfect feel for the fictional continent of Westeros.  Here, top AirVuz contributor and first person view (FPV) drone pilot Livyu FPV got a unique look at the nature preserve with some acrobatic freestyle FPV flying, including some epic dives over the famous falls.

In the last couple of years, the great waterfalls of the world have caught the attention of first person view (FPV) drone pilots.  As piloting skills and long-range control technology have improved, FPV waterfall diving is now officially a "thing".  Exhibit A is this amazing video of Europe's tallest waterfall.  FPV pilot suicide quad donned his video goggles to tackle the mighty Vinnufossen falls in western Norway, the sixth tallest waterfall in the world.  Its four drops total 860 meters (about 2.8k ft.) in height! 

Sit back and take it all in with this 4K, cinematic, crazy-fast waterfall dive by drone pilot bjarnerimi fpv.  The flying skills are definitely a touch above most and the location is enticing and exciting with plenty of room for epic, quad-busting crashes, but our favorite part is the air-to-air action. Not just one pilot conquered the terrain, two did. From the base of the falls to the top and back down, it’s one entertaining flight.

The open of this cinematic flight will get you all kinds of excited to see what’s in store from our favorite Canadian first person view (FPV) freestyle pilot, the legendary MATTYSTUNTZ. Flying over the weekend, we assume the Vancouver-based pilot was flying through the North Shore Mountains - Grouse, Cypress, and Seymour Mountain. Regardless of where he flew, the rush of flying up these cliffs and down the gushing falls is invigorating and exciting, leaving you feeling inspired to try waterfall diving for yourself.

JrisYangFPV created this amazing first person view (FPV) video of one of the world's highest waterfalls.  It's the Jiao Lung Waterfall, and it runs down a cliff near the town of Alishan in Chiayi County, which is in the western part of the island.  It's a plunge-type waterfall with a drop of about 600 meters, or around 2k ft.  The waterfall is seasonal, and (as you might expect) flows heaviest during the monsoon season.  It's not easy to reach, so one can imagine the skill it takes to take it on with a racing drone!
