- Hey guys, it's Justine,
and today we have a very exciting unboxing.
I know I say that quite often,
but this is something all new from DJI.
This is their first little baby steps into FPV drone flying.
FPV drones are completely different than most
of the consumer drones that most of us are used to flying.
I've done some FPV flying before, but not really that much.
So I'm very excited to test this out without further ado,
We're gonna unbox, and get to it.
(upbeat music)
Oh my goodness.
Oh, it's heavy.
Heavy boy.
(headset rolling)
Controller.
Let's get everything out.
Gosh, there's so many goodies in here.
This is an authentic smile.
Sometimes I smile and I'm crying inside, but this is real,
there are no tears inside.
Holy crap.
I can't wait to take this out.
Looks like this is the propellers.
So this is the "A" propellers.
(unboxing)
This is the B propeller box.
They're also red tips.
I thought we were gonna get like a different tip color.
So to be able to identify which one is the "A"
and which one is the "B,"
You'll see the inner circle of the "A" is red,
the "B" is black.
(assembling)
Oh shoot.
Look at this, Oh boy.
We've got some more boxes.
(unboxing)
That is a very large power adopter.
What is this?
(gasps)
Oh my gosh I can change his outfit.
Oh.
Oh, wow.
Look at all of this.
(bight upbeat music)
We're all gonna end up
walking around like this one day you know,
hi, I'm Justine nice to meet you,
I'm COVID negative.
So here's everything
that came inside of the fly more combo kit.
Now the cool thing about this is yes, it is an FPV drone
so you can fly a traditional FPV.
So if you do take your hands off the throttles,
the drone is going to drop out of the air.
But they also have the modes
that we're familiar with in previous DJI drones,
so you can fly this normally.
This is really great way to
ease your way into FPV drone flying.
The only thing that I do want to note
is FPV drone flying has been around for a really long time,
and a lot of these pilots have worked so hard
to create their own drones.
Most of them are made basically from scratch.
This is a way to make it more accessible,
but I don't want that to discredit
all of the hard work and effort,
and the time that all of these pilots have put in.
The years of building and perfecting their drones.
I see you, we see you.
We don't forget.
I'm a noob, (laughs), hi.
Time to charge up the batteries, update the firmware,
and I've got a lot to learn.
(calm music)
(bright upbeat music)
I've never been afraid to fly a drone before
but this is something that's entirely different.
I'm not very comfortable flying FPV.
So this is kind of really like my first big leap into it.
Now the good thing about this drone though,
is I can fly it like a normal Mavic,
which I'm incredibly comfortable with,
but you could flip this thing
into sport mode and you can go so fast
but thankfully there's really not a lot of stuff
that I can hit out here.
The real question that I'm asking myself is,
am I going to be brave enough to pop this
into manual for the first time in this video?
I'm not entirely sure.
I'm a little bit nervous.
I feel like I kind of want to work up to it
cause I don't wanna crash the drone.
I have been doing the in-flight tutorials.
There's an app where you can race in different settings.
Kind of like a simulator, but nothing simulates real life.
Okay. Let's just do this.
Let's just do it.
So here she is.
Oh wow.
That is aggressive.
Nothing about this drone is subtle, at all.
All right.
No better time than now.
This is weird.
It's like I'm outside my body.
(drone flying)
(car engine roaring)
(bright upbeat music)
I got so close to his car.
Holy crap.
That was so scary.
You guys, I'm still learning my controls.
Yes, okay. Return to home.
I'm just testing it out.
I normally, for me personally
I never liked to do return to home.
I like to manually land myself.
Surprisingly not feeling much motion sickness,
as I thought that I would have.
When I'm playing the simulator,
I do feel a little bit of motion sickness,
but because maybe like I'm sitting,
stable, not moving my head a lot,
I feel pretty good.
I can't believe how much fun I'm having.
Dude, I almost hit you.
I'd love to take off on one more flight.
The problem is,
these batteries Aren't charging fast enough,
and I only have three.
So this is my third flight,
and this is something that I really wanna test out.
This is the motion controller,
so this is kind of an all new way to control the drone.
It's basically gesture controlled.
Here's your acceleration.
There's a break .
So I'm not gonna try the motion controller out just yet,
I'm still getting my bearings
and I also only have one battery left.
So I wanna get a couple more flights in
before we don't have any batteries left.
I am very excited though,
because I am gonna be meeting up with some of my friends
and we're gonna do an FPV drone course race together.
So I need to practice up and get ready for the big race.
Not confident in my skills yet
but we'll see what happens.
She's going in.
(drone flying)
I am preparing for the tournament tomorrow.
There's a big race that's happening
with Jesse and some fellow pilots.
I'm so dusty.
Going in.
- Left, towards Jenna,
towards me,
Up, up.
- So that's the problem
(drone flying)
Whoa
(bright upbeat music)
So we're in Oxnard right now,
and there is a drone competition
that is about to take place behind me.
They have this course all set up.
There are small little gates.
It's very close quarters.
And this type of flying is something that I don't ever do.
I'm so used to flying just my Mavic drone,
getting cool cinematic shots.
This is completely different.
- When you're in the FPV it's so much faster.
The other thing that I've never experienced
in FPV is the proximity sensing there.
So the jerk that I am, I tried to thread the needle
going down these orange roads,
and it slowed it down, like a really consistent slowdown.
Then was like,
"Hey bro, it's kind of a lot of (beep) right now."
And like, it kept me from being reckless.
Is the pinch technique something I should know about?
- It is
- That's what I use - Really?
- But I wouldn't.
- I go gamer techniques.
I go like call of duty (indistinct)
- I do too.
But you can't do that.
- You get more precise this way.
- Yeah.
(drone flying)
(all cheering)
- I guess I'm up first.
(bright upbeat music)
(drone flying) (all cheering)
(indistinct chattering) - You went through it.
- Oh my God.
- Yeah - That was awesome
- My natural reaction was like, I'd rather go up.
- When you went around these two gates, we were zipping,
we're like, Oh wow.
(bright upbeat music)
- This is so cool.
This is such a fun course.
If you guys want to check out the full video that Jesse did
I'll put a link in the description,
and is my forehead dented?
Yep, that is.
(car drifting)
- Well thank you guys so much for watching.
I had so much fun testing out this drone.
I love flying FPV.
The thing that I do need to do is practice
a little bit more,
but this kind of really opened up my eyes
to what's possible.
And the fact that DJI is making this easier and accessible
for more people just start flying.
It's really cool,
and I'm so excited to see
what the future of this all looks like.
- I have no idea where it is.
- It's coming up for us.
Like, quick.
