Title: Do you move around when standing up to FPV ?
Post by: CurryKitten on April 19, 2015, 05:14:10 PM
I didn't think I did, but I'd just wanted an external shot of my 250 quad taking off for a video, and when I watched it back - well, full on Stevie Wonder in the head movements + lots of weird leaning.  I found it quite funny to watch, so I made this short video.

Heheheh :)

I move my head, well more my neck goes with what angle I bank to and then never returns to level so I sit slouched :)

Most weird movements I do when landing, it's like I'm in it too trying to balance multi with my bodyweight.

I nearly fell over once whilst FPVing standing up... even now when I'm sitting down I end up in a sort of fetal position

Most FPVers I've seen look like they've had a stroke while flying.

I much prefer sitting down, I feel a bit unsteady on my feet if I'm standing up while wearing goggles.

Likewise, sitting comfy.

When I first started I could only fly sitting down,  especially when flying low and fast.  But now I've mastered standing up

Always stood up.

With leans and all.

Was hoping I'd do a backflip while doing a loop but nope.

;D

I nearly fell over today while trying to land the 250 in a side wind.  :o

I generally stand and never had an issue until I tried to follow someone flying LOS a week or so back, and nearly fell straight on my face.

I learned FPV while standing up, found if I sat down after a few flights I would feel almost sea sick but now either is good for me. If I sit down I tend to head steer the quad if doing close proximity, if I'm standing then I get the full body lean but never fallen over...good thing too as I tend to stand in quite dangerous spots to get the best signal footprint from my Tx.

Bottom left of the screen shows how much I move during close proximity while I sit down...
