Waterfall FPV

Have you ever seen a drone video from the inside of a waterfall? Pretty sure you haven't... Not until now! FPV pilot airblastr had this crazy idea to fly through the icy curtain of a waterfall and he actually did it. No quads were harmed in the filming of this Drone Video Awards' FPV Freestyle Cinematic nominated video.

FPV pilot mrgeeseeks hikes all the way to the top of a mountain to send his quadcopter diving off the edge with a giant waterfall in this wild flight. The flow of water he chases runs such a long distance that the waterfall seems to nearly dissipate before it reaches the ground below.

Team AirVūz pilot 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, FPV pilot Livyu FPV got a unique look at the nature preserve with some acrobatic freestyle FPV flying.

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 Squad 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! 

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.

He’s been creating long range, flowing shots for years, well before many of our current long range pilots even picked up a quad. 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. 

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 freestyle pilot, 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.
