Some great flying skills right there. I'm not a big fan of FPV but on this occasion I will tip my hat to you sir. Well done.
You are tempting me I had plans to master M mode, but also I like filming, so always sacrifise experiments in order to film the place. But might be some day I'll realy dive in to this as I fell the need!Depends on how much effort you're prepared to put into the flying skills alone...
I started to fly quads (that lacks GPS & height hold support, & without prop guards) in full manual 2020... put all photography & videoing on hold & focused on the flying only. One year in, I was a confident flyer with enough skills to adapt speed & react out from muscle memory on the sticks in order to manage close proximity flying in unknown terrain... but still a bit too afraid of crashing, always flew better in the simulator than in reality.
Today a route like in your vid isn't impossible... will of course require some pre-planning, walking the track & noting off all kinds of "ghost" branches & such, taking several laps slowly picking up the speed and having a couple sets of spare props at hand... then just send it
If I could learn, I'm sure you can also... try to just focus on the flying skills (manual) each second battery... or outing & see if thing's improve over time, the flow through your videos would be so much better in manual.
I wouldn't relli on her , few years ago when my mavic fell due to defective battery, I ceared her by hand walking thru bushes to retrive itTop flight Alex.
I know why you bring doggo and younger people. It's in case you have to send someone in to retrieve the Avata out of the blackberries. Good forward planning
