FPV Pilots to Watch - February 14, 2020

Drone pilot JZFPV has got us feeling like a bird indeed, and most likely the happiest of them all as he cruises around the otherworldy views of Sedona, Arizona. The gorgeous rock formations pushing up from the grounds of the Arizona desert give this pilot plenty of obstacles to artistically cruise around. Watch as he surfs along the ridges, dives down the cliffs, and rolls around in the gaps between proving that amongst everything else cool about this geographic gem, the best place to be is in the air. 

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 very best freestyle and cinematic vids with our enthusiastic AirVuz community.  We pick a short list of FPV pilots to feature each week, and then 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 the best example yet of keeping things simple, drone pilot b1z1o_fpv gives us a quick and smooth tour of the town of Trento in Italy.  Instead of adding a musical audio track, he sticks with more of an ambient choice, really giving us the full experience of a quiet flight to close out a peaceful day.  He adeptly skims the rooftops, through balconies, and over the trees to show us a charming neighborhood in this university town, and for that, we placed him on the FPV Pilots to Watch list in February 2020.

The famed Jeju Island in the South Korean province of the same name has proven to be a first person view (FPV) drone video paradise for AirVuz contributor and FPV pilot Jay FPV. He makes use of every geographic feature to show off his extreme flying skills.  Watch as he cruises along the jagged shoreline, dives down the craggy cliffs, and chases along the walking trails to give us all a cinematic experience worthy of giving him his first placement on our FPV Pilots to Watch list, in February 2020.  

When the content creation company TacGas checked in with AirVuz pilot Nurkfpv about collaborating on a film for the tactical and firearms industries, of course - without question - he went for it. While taking cues from their unique, action packed filming style, he brought the element of FPV Freestyle to the equation and the final product was pretty intense.  Watch as he clears each scene, carefully manueving around it all and proving yet again that he's an FPV legend and a Pilot to Watch on AirVuz.

To see how the worlds of aerial cinematography and FPV drone flight are coming together, check out this amazing piece from Iceland by contributor and FPV pilot louishouiller.  He combined footage from a DJI Mavic Pro 2 with that from an FPV racing quad to provide an amazing perspective on some of the world's most beautiful scenery.  Watch how he "sets up" the FPV shots with stabilized footage from the DJI drone to capture some of southern Iceland's iconic sights like its black sand beaches, glacial lagoons, and the famous DC-3 wreck.  

Chicago area FPV pilot Ilya_fpv was given the rare chance to fly his tiny whoop through the Chicago Auto Show in early February 2020.  Known as the largest of it's kind, this Auto Show was first staged in 1901 and now covers over 1 million square feet of exhibit hall, all of which was the perfect back drop for Ilya to show his supreme flying skills around the courses, over the cars, and through the gaps on the exhibit floor.  We loved the tour and had to add him to the FPV Pilots to Watch list in February 2020.

Most often, we see the views of Turkey’s famed Cappadocia landscape in warmer weather, but in this fun video, FPV drone pilot havadankayseri shows us this hot air ballooning paradise covered with a fresh coat of snow.  Watch as he proficiently navigates his freestyle moves over the landscape of chimney towers, and above, around, and in between the colorful balloons to give us a very full view of the beautiful panorama.  This great edit put havadankayseri’s on our FPV Pilots to Watch list in February 2020. Bravo Havadan!

The towncenter of Kremnica, Slovakia transformed into a big action arena ready for the likes of some pretty trick snowboarders and freestyle skiers.  This popular event in early February 2020 was the perfect space for AirVuz contributor and first person view (FPV) drone pilot snail.fpv to capture some epic shots. Watch as he mixes cruises down the ski jump with the athletes and shows off his maneuverability and control, giving us plenty of reason to name him as an FPV Pilots to Watch in February 2020.

If you're not skiing the slopes in the beautiful Swiss Alps, the next best way to enjoy them is to cruise over them via a first person view (FPV) racing drone flown by someone like AirVuz contributor and pilot Doclate's.  Watch his sweeping lines follow those of skiers from earlier in the day, as well as his long range mountain surfing over those alpine scenes. With a storm apparently on the horizon, he made every minute count to sneak this breathtaking flight in, and for that, we put him on the FPV Pilots to Watch list in February 2020.

Located in Weston, Florida, the GeckoParx is the ultimate spots for kids and those young at heart to jump, play, eat, and celebrate...and also fly a tiny first person view (FPV) drone around to capture the action  on video.  In this fun piece, AirVuz contributor and FPV pilot ThatFlyinRyan cruises around the arcade and trampoline park, winding around the games and sneaking through the gaps to give us a charming tour of this fun natured destination, and for that, we placed him on our FPV Pilots to Watch list in February, 2020.
