The Falcon
AIRVŪZ STAFF NOTE :
If you’ve ever had dreams of flying near a Star Wars ship, then take a look. Accomplished pilot nurkfpv had the opportunity to work with the team at FliteTest where he checked out and tracked their new, mini Millennium Falcom. The starship from the Star Wars franchise has a long history, but is mostly known as the home of Han Solo and his faithful Wookie first mate, Chewbacca. Nurkfpv uses his tracking skills to follow the mini Falcon through a park, earning him a spot on the FPV Pilots to Watch list in December, 2019.

Last week, I had the opportunity to partner with @FliteTest on their Flying Millennium Falcon video. I was brought in to chase the Falcon for their video. This 3 minute flight was one of our favorites for the shoot, especially when it comes to the backwards flying. They were super excited for the release of Star Wars: Rise of Skywalker, so they built a flying Millennium Falcon!
