Loving these. Keep it up guys. I think having a student do these really helps with the lesson as it shows us what we all typically do and how to correct for common mistakes. You guys already have the technique and muscle memory, seeing what newer pilots do wrong and how to correct is as valuable as the lesson itself.
Best lesson format yet!!! Powerlops from the Master Stinger Swarm. You guys need to get +Le Drib in to show the reverse / backwards out of a power loop through an obstacle.
Agreed! I'm sending my contact info - gladly signing up to be the student! :-) All joking (a little) aside - I totally agree, this "student" format is great! ...though I understand some maneuvers may not be as easily picked up in one lesson so, may be a frustrating exercise for a short video / for your viewers. May be best to keep the "expert" on those maneuvers so we can see how it's supposed to be done.
I really like how you guys explain these guys to new / semi-experienced fliers instead of just having a pro explaining everything to us while they fly. This is so amazing because it gives a glimpse as if we were there asking the questions with you and the tips that you give him when he does things wrong are really great and will help us in our own situations. Thank you for such an amazingly well put together video.
Stinger amazing job explaining everything, I can really tell you love teaching people. That's so cool. And what an honor it would be to fly ummagawds butter kwad!
These are some of the best videos you guys have done. Bringing in a student was a great idea. When he gives his perspective on the challenges and what to remember I think it is a very valuable tool for others. Great job guys! And Kev, you are a great teacher.
This instruction video with a real student is awesome and really helpful. That's the best flying tutorial I've ever found so far! It's incredibly easy to identify with the student through his attempts, crashes and successes, we get to see what has to be done, along with the tricks/tips and the errors to avoid. I'm in my bed but I actually feel like I've been flying, practicing and learning. Please do more like that, that's invaluable for the beginners like me in FPV.
Seriously, Kevin... the way you explained this was great. Especially how you started by showing how the direction of thrust compares to direction of sight, and also your explanation visual reference points. Well done.
Okay, big points to Tommy for loaning his baby. Speaks volumes for the TEAM. I've flown quads 6 months now, maybe 200 Pax. Power loops (inside loops) are what I'm working on. I do start out way to high and twice became a lawn dart. *The only tall building we have near buy is the local jail*. I hate to get so close to it but I can see the benefits of having a positive reference point. Thanks a bunch for the video guys. Wish me luck.
Thank you for all you content! I like the addition of a student to these trick episodes (like the pid episode). Also, seeing the crashes make me feel more comfortable knowing we all biff it, especially when pushing limits.
i like this format better, simply because i feel like when you are explaining it to someone who is learning, they are teaching you at the same time. They are teaching what mistakes people are making when they try to do the tricks, and you are able to address the mistakes on the spot. When you are just explaining the trick into the camera, you don't know if the instruction is making sense. It's good for people to see mistakes, as well as proper execution. You guys are killing it, keep it up!
It's very cool to watch you teach someone who doesn't fly as good as you, because in regular tutorials usually it's just steps to complete the trick, but here we get also the problems that could appear and ways to solve them. Love these kinds of videos!
great job with instructions and awesome idea having other Kevin performing the actual tricks I front of the camera. and way to go Tommy for stepping up and letting Kevin use the Butta quad
@Rotor Riot Guys thanks very much for these! As a newbie coming in I really enjoyed watching Kevin teach Kevin, it was extremly informative. It was good to see Kevin [student] make mistakes, and common mistakes that I would make, then Kevin [teacher] explain why that is happening and how to remedy it. So thanks again, and I would love to see more of these in the future. Cheers!
I’m so glad I seen this. I just started fpv 3 weeks ago and I’ve seen a bunch of faces on your channel. Dribs a sexy beast, bardwell is a technical nerd, and StingersSwarm I now see is simply a flight nerd! I can sense his knowledge and passion for flight and it’s awesome 👏🏻👏🏻
Awesome tutorial video on the power loop, best one yet! I liked seeing the student being taught to do the trick instead of just being shown how to do it. I can relate to the student much better. Please do more of these this way! Now I have to go charge some batteries to practice my power loops......
To me personally, b4 I die, instructors are everywhere and takes the fun out of life.... #pride (and don't get me wrong, I have mad respect for you StingerSwarm...)
I've been curious for a long time as to how you guys pull off these amazing power loops. Very awesome to see how it's done and to see a pilot who never has done it have success. Look forward to trying this someday myself. Thanks for putting this together guys. Excellent tutorial. ☺
This was awesome! Thanks especially for giving the video a quad to make sure people can learn these things! This is a genuine public service to fellow pilots that are still learning!
NOW THIS IS WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT !!!!! Love this series of vids you guys are doing, and where in the world has Kevin been keeping his on camera presence .... Stinger Swarm ! Bro, glad to see you in front of the camera for a change. Anyways love all the youtube content you guys have put out.... and Steele, bud you may have missed your calling as a cameraman. Great stuff all around fellas.
Great teaching Stinger Swarm. Really appreciate you keeping in the crash footage. You could've deleted it and just showed the successful attempts. Really helpful to keep it in to show us how mistakes are made, but don't have to keep you from trying again.
Awesome job there Kevin and Kevin. I'm sure I'm not the only one who flinched when you put butter kwad through the tree! Some great tips there that I will use myself!
You have no idea how nervous I was flying the Duga Dive Butter Kwad! What you didn't see in the video is that there was a huge family with a photographer standing to the side to take sunset pictures at the tower and waiting for us to finish. Kevin leans over and says "you have one, maybe two shots at this, man. No pressure."
Wow this lesson was awesome, and I keep rewatching the part from 10:32 to 10:46. A perfect sequence of selected moves, with the added bonus of perfect timing with the train blowing it's horn in the background and all that good stuff haha. Perfect moment in life caught on tape. I'm coming from a DJI Spark, but I just got my first racing kwad a few weeks ago. I'm very excited about that.
Now that's how to produce a trick lesson right there. I did like the other 2 you have released but this one is next level of educational value. Good on you guys.
Adding a student really helped with seeing that nothing you guys do on camera is easy, without practice, but with understanding and humility can be accomplished. Please keep these coming guys. GG
That was a great way to demonstrate the techniques behind power loops. Awesome idea to teach someone right there with you. It would have been neat to see that through all 3 of the trick series!
Keep them coming! I love this format and subject matter! All of you guys are inspiring so many of us to get into the hobby! My 9 year old even wants a racing quad for Christmas!
This is just great guys! You can see and hear on everything that Kevin does, that he is a pro instructor. More of these videos with pilots that have skill, but don't are pro's :)
Who else than StingerPowerLoopMasterSwarm should teach how to do powerloop :) and he did it perfectly. I think for newbies these videos are perfect for learning. Tommy must be very nervous when Kevin flight with his quad. Nice work keep it up
Great video guys, Excellent job Kevin would be super cool if you did some more of these since you have a amazing way of explaining whats going on with your previous instructor background
All the trick lessons to date have been great but this was awesome Kevin! Great teaching buddy, got a lot out of this video. Cheers buddy! 🙂 and thanks RR loving these lessons!
On those early tree and tower loops that they did - anyone else thumbs twitch to instinctively pullup ? GREAT video - i loved that you had a trainee making mistakes. I am a "teacher of teachers" in a primary school, I spend a lot of time and effort explaining to other teachers that they often need to stop and slow down to explain things they automatically do without thinking. If you just have an expert explaining - they will often miss the points that they themselves now automatically do - yet struggled with when they were learning. Using this coaching senario makes for a WAY better video - because it allows kevin to remember all the things he now instinctually does and explain them
Loving these. Keep it up guys. I think having a student do these really helps with the lesson as it shows us what we all typically do and how to correct for common mistakes. You guys already have the technique and muscle memory, seeing what newer pilots do wrong and how to correct is as valuable as the lesson itself.
Theibault Exactly.

So true, good job

Kevin is an awesome teacher. More please
+SpikeJonesTheCr0oked yes sir!
I really like how you guys explain these guys to new / semi-experienced fliers instead of just having a pro explaining everything to us while they fly.

Thank you for such an amazingly well put together video.
Very smart having a student!! It is much more helpful for learning to hear correction to real mistakes then just seeing Kevin rip perfect loops.
Robertlavigne1 exactly. We all learn from our mistakes.
It works! Been flying for over two years just did my first power loop and then another one and another one and another one. So much fun!
Stinger amazing job explaining everything, I can really tell you love teaching people. That's so cool. And what an honor it would be to fly ummagawds butter kwad!
James Smith if you watch rotor riot you would know one of the pilots is ummagawd, and a butter kwad is a really locked in kwad.
James Smith no problem
These are some of the best videos you guys have done. Bringing in a student was a great idea. When he gives his perspective on the challenges and what to remember I think it is a very valuable tool for others. Great job guys! And Kev, you are a great teacher.
Really cool to see someone with a very different (and more liable, thorough) knowledge path learning something new
This instruction video with a real student is awesome and really helpful. That's the best flying tutorial I've ever found so far! It's incredibly easy to identify with the student through his attempts, crashes and successes, we get to see what has to be done, along with the tricks/tips and the errors to avoid. I'm in my bed but I actually feel like I've been flying, practicing and learning. Please do more like that, that's invaluable for the beginners like me in FPV.
@ 7:55 "yeah... yeah, I'm not gonna try that"
I hear You!
Looks like Rotor Riots just found their new Flight Instructor! Nice work Kevin
Seriously, Kevin... the way you explained this was great. Especially how you started by showing how the direction of thrust compares to direction of sight, and also your explanation visual reference points. Well done.
Okay, big points to Tommy for loaning his baby. Speaks volumes for the TEAM. I've flown quads 6 months now, maybe 200 Pax. Power loops (inside loops) are what I'm working on.

I hate to get so close to it but I can see the benefits of having a positive reference point. Thanks a bunch for the video guys. Wish me luck.
Pilot Church make sure you can get over the fence incase you need to recover it.
Not to bash on any of the other guys but this is the best lesson yet of Rotor Riot. :)
Tommy you are a trip , petting the butter quad as it survived
Stingy is best teacher hands down. I have had such a hard time getting my loops smooth and round. It makes much more sense now. Thank you soooo much.
Thank you for all you content! I like the addition of a student to these trick episodes (like the pid episode). Also, seeing the crashes make me feel more comfortable knowing we all biff it, especially when pushing limits.
Best flight lesson I have ever seen. You are a natural teacher.
i like this format better, simply because i feel like when you are explaining it to someone who is learning, they are teaching you at the same time. They are teaching what mistakes people are making when they try to do the tricks, and you are able to address the mistakes on the spot. When you are just explaining the trick into the camera, you don't know if the instruction is making sense. It's good for people to see mistakes, as well as proper execution. You guys are killing it, keep it up!
agreed! will try to find "Students" for the trick series moving forward
I've been known to exhibit student like qualities on occasion.
It's very cool to watch you teach someone who doesn't fly as good as you, because in regular tutorials usually it's just steps to complete the trick, but here we get also the problems that could appear and ways to solve them. Love these kinds of videos!

Man, Professor Stingy got in depth! I wasn't expecting him to bust out vectors lol.
Awesome vid, now I'm going to practice some powerloops
Awesome tutorial video on the power loop, best one yet! I liked seeing the student being taught to do the trick instead of just being shown how to do it. I can relate to the student much better. Please do more of these this way! Now I have to go charge some batteries to practice my power loops......

I love your trick series! Thanks Mr Steele, Skitzo and Stingerswarm for their great explanations! Can't wait to see the next one!!!
Super useful video! I've been trying to do power loops recently so this had the perfect timing. Kevin is a good instructor!
StingersSwarm, best RR tut video so far. Thanks.
This was awesome!
Thanks especially for giving the video a quad to make sure people can learn these things! This is a genuine public service to fellow pilots that are still learning!
this is what i need!! Thanks, Kevin!
NOW THIS IS WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT !!!!! Love this series of vids you guys are doing, and where in the world has Kevin been keeping his on camera presence .... Stinger Swarm !

This is a great format for tutorials. Kevin is a great instructor. More of these!
agreed! will try to maintain this format moving forward
This was awesome! Kevin has really won my respect here. And Tommy is the best, offering his kwad! Dammmmm!
Great teaching Stinger Swarm. Really appreciate you keeping in the crash footage. You could've deleted it and just showed the successful attempts. Really helpful to keep it in to show us how mistakes are made, but don't have to keep you from trying again.
Nice work student!!! that was huge progress in a short time.
Jealous of the teachers you've got!! and thanks Stinger+ Tommy.
Perfect timing. Just getting into rolls and flips. Power loops here I come!
Exactly what was needed to get it right.
Thank you SS and RR.
Awesome job there Kevin and Kevin. I'm sure I'm not the only one who flinched when you put butter kwad through the tree!
Some great tips there that I will use myself!
You have no idea how nervous I was flying the Duga Dive Butter Kwad! What you didn't see in the video is that there was a huge family with a photographer standing to the side to take sunset pictures at the tower and waiting for us to finish. Kevin leans over and says "you have one, maybe two shots at this, man. No pressure."
Kevin Hall you did an awesome job man, I would have been too nervous to even get Tommy's quad off the ground!
Best power loop instructional video I've seen, You're a good instructor. Hope you make some more of these videos
Wow this lesson was awesome, and I keep rewatching the part from 10:32 to 10:46. A perfect sequence of selected moves, with the added bonus of perfect timing with the train blowing it's horn in the background and all that good stuff haha. Perfect moment in life caught on tape. I'm coming from a DJI Spark, but I just got my first racing kwad a few weeks ago. I'm very excited about that.
Great job on this video. One of my fave from Rotor Riot so far. Keep it up guys.
Yeah this series is really good guys! keep it up. You can tell Kevin's instructor experience shows
Amazing! The little blip at the top of the loop seems like the key.
Another great video by the RR group filled with the best of the best! Thanks for sharing guys!
this is the best lesson I seen in the two years of watching quad vids..awesome vid guys! good job other kevin..
nice to see Kevin in action
Now that's how to produce a trick lesson right there. I did like the other 2 you have released but this one is next level of educational value. Good on you guys.
Loving the trick series, more please! I like the variety of presenters too - keeps it interesting.
This content is what ive needed 4 years! thnx guys
Adding a student really helped with seeing that nothing you guys do on camera is easy, without practice, but with understanding and humility can be accomplished. Please keep these coming guys. GG
I've struggled with the power loop. can't wait till spring to put this lesson in practice. Thanks stinger.
That was a great way to demonstrate the techniques behind power loops. Awesome idea to teach someone right there with you. It would have been neat to see that through all 3 of the trick series!
Great job guys! Having someone that you are teaching in the video is really helpful actually! Stingy, great job dude!
This was excellent. Thank you again, for all you do to improve the community.
This is a great idea keep the series going, stingersswarm is a good teacher
That was exactly the tuto I was waiting for!! Thank you StingersSwarm!!
Keep them coming! I love this format and subject matter! All of you guys are inspiring so many of us to get into the hobby! My 9 year old even wants a racing quad for Christmas!
Best format so far! Well done guys
Love these, so far really liking Kevin's instruction the best. Keep it up!
Love the practical lesson/tricks format!
Nice video. Thanks! Kevin is great at explaining. Love it.
This is just great guys! You can see and hear on everything that Kevin does, that he is a pro instructor. More of these videos with pilots that have skill, but don't are pro's :)
More Stingy lessons!! That was awesome.
Tis the season. RR just keeps on giving!
enjoying the trick series guys. gonna apply these :)
now that's a superb lesson! Good job.
Excellent instructions - thanks for making it simple and clear!
this was the best power loop lesson vid I've watched, thanks guys.
Kevin!!! great lesson! I think his coolness explaining and patience is a good teaching method! lol
Cheers!
Ed
Again a super video of you, Kevin is really sympathetic and flies very well. Greetings from Bayern Germany
Dope. Cheers Kevin, thanks RR
Excellent tutorial. Probably the best RR video since sniper Finn.
Definitely like the teacher to student method. Lesson videos every week would be awesome! Keep up the great work and keep the videos coming!
Who else than StingerPowerLoopMasterSwarm should teach how to do powerloop :) and he did it perfectly. I think for newbies these videos are perfect for learning. Tommy must be very nervous when Kevin flight with his quad. Nice work keep it up
awesome series, keep it up guys, you helping us save millions of quads :P
lol
Great video guys, Excellent job Kevin would be super cool if you did some more of these since you have a amazing way of explaining whats going on with your previous instructor background
Really good stuff. Thanks for putting these together guys!
I really prefer these lessons shown like this can't wait to see more.
I think it's rad that you guys are doing instructionals. stuff like this helps out the noobs like myself.
Loving it. Very good idea to have a student and a instructor,. Thumbs up 👍🏻
This is a situation where learning it in the sim first would be the best case scenario. Was a great video, thanks.
Love the format. And really appreciate the lessons!
Great idea with bringing in the student.
he was a great student
Man, Stinger is a great teacher!!
Great video!!! I'm loving these tutorials! So useful!!
This is what rotor riot is about I'm loving it good job guys
thanks
Yes! More instruction !!! I loved it.
Best intro of the year, hands down
Here in 2019. Wondering how much of this guys flying has improved now. 🤔 awesome video guys!
Devin C 2020 now!?! Still wondering?
2021 and still wondering
2022 and still wondering
The tunes we had to work with back then lol! Oscillation city
Haha! Tommy! "Your ok, your ok..." I was thinking the same thing!
All the trick lessons to date have been great but this was awesome Kevin! Great teaching buddy, got a lot out of this video. Cheers buddy! 🙂 and thanks RR loving these lessons!
5:44 in, great lesson so far... Can't wait to try, try again.
man, got to give it up for Tommy ! cracking up at the petting! nice video and great instruction stingy!
Thank you kevin.. many an unasked question answered. Also New Zealands really nice...
Very Nice! Can't wait for the rain to stop so I can do the StingersSwarm Power Loop training "method" You teach like an Aviator should!
Loving this series of vids! now if i can just man up and try these! Keep up the great work guys!
On those early tree and tower loops that they did - anyone else thumbs twitch to instinctively pullup ? GREAT video - i loved that you had a trainee making mistakes.
