The explanation on connecting the initiation to the sustained climb segment is really good! Practically there's a bridge point where it's quicker to just 'back into' the first gate after a bit of preturn, use the throttle and keep the side of the ladder you're trying to orbit around a third of the way in from the edge, then it becomes about throttle/pitch management once there's a consistent feel for what the turn radius is. I think that would be the next follow-on, and where the SIM is much more forgiving than trying to learn in the air
Hello and thank you! It was a brief meeting but ot was a lot of fun! If you have any questions - be sure to message me either via email or socials. I'd love to help! 💜
Great video. Only thing I would add is that the setup is everything to get them tight. Good preturn as you enter makes it alot easier to hold speed through the ladder
5:15 when you're doing it in like 1 continuous move you have your camera like 45 degrees tilted on roll, interesting. If you've just overshooting, you normally hold the horizon. Just some observations...
@@MaiOnHigh Yeah so if you overshoot, you normally try to straighten the horizon, before you throttle towards another gate. So to me it would be some kind of an indicator that I'm doing that single move properly - if I keep that angle and not straighten the horizon. Same for powerloops-corkscrew when you go sideways spiral
Also how is that move called when you have like 3 gates in line on the ground, and you go through all of them in a single corkscrew move but it's like 3 angled powerloops... might be cool to see a tutorial on that one.
Nice, another torture track... I mean TRAINING track :) what's the difference in playing in nemesis mode vs solo mode, I can see my times and other people times as well, and single mode doesn't makes me have all ghosts flying around
Oh you will start hating "the green guy" soon 😂 Yeah nemesis mode is so much fun and makes you push further and harder! I'm happy to make more torture tracks 😉
@@MaiOnHigh For now it's more distracting than helping to have faster ghost times around, mostly because my laps are not consistent so I can't follow somebody else's line, and if I try to pick up speed I immediately shoot out of the track. the problem for me is still to get in the zone and stay focused
I can build tracks 😂 and I am used to it more. I think liftoff is cool for freestyle, but for racing I do always use velocidrone. Plus a lot of online races are made there so it's my go-to sim
She goes fast. It's really counterintuitive, but lower rates mean you can be more precise with stick movements, and for going fast, it's actually preferable.
@@tehllama42 I get that but she freestyles on those rates. my rates are fairly low and I fly 750 DPS for both freestyle and racing. even my drl sim world record run was done at 750 DPS
Hi Lexi, pleasant tutorial. Was thinking ladder? 🤔 Ahh those gates stacked on each other like towers 🤣🤣🤣 👍 🤦🏻♂️ After I went through some of Mihn Chan vids, I thought, I‘m too old for these & after a few rounds it got dizzy & boring 🤦🏻♂️ I need something like a parcour track 🤔 I became a weird problem the other day, the image on my goggles are mirrored 🤦🏻♂️ from left to right, with a smaller cam up to down. I don’t even know how it happened, going crazy how to solve it 🤦🏻♂️ I‘ve tried the inverter in the OSD menu but didn’t do anything 🤦🏻♂️ 🤷🏻♂️ If you have any clues or ideas, is much appreciated. Many thnx & take care 🤓😉😘
I think I had it once with a runcam that had a setting to be mirrored. Up to down you can just rotate the cam on drone but left to right is usually a cam setting 🤔
@@MaiOnHigh hi yeh I‘m using the RunCam nano racer 2. & yes in the OSD Menü for mirror/invert, that just makes the writing bold 🤦🏻♂️. Was thinking a CLI command? 🤔 If there was a way to adjust the image there? Thnx4Answering, have fun, fly safe & take care 🤓😉😘
@@MaiOnHigh hi actually one way is to use the controller for the camera, the newer versions should be able to do this but 2 props, I don’t have such a controller & 2nd I destroyed the connection part on the camera 🤦🏻♂️ Will do, write to RunCam, try & give them a small depression 🤦🏻♂️ You don’t really love to fly 🤷🏻♂️ Not like I do 😉 Thnx for the replies, have fun & take care 🤓😉😘
Could you make a tutorial on drop gates or any horizontal gates? I find your explanations very helpful in understanding the essence of the move you're performing. Thanks for the great content!
Your such a wee cutie Mai,yor also a dam good pilot. I so wish my partner liked to fly quads,but she rides horses instead.good part is it gives me some cool action to film with my drones as her two horses are no longer shy of the drones. remember....Flying is living
I guess everyone has their own hobby and on her defence - Looking at drones from the outside is no fun at all. Even when you love them. Have you tried to put goggles on her face? Maybe a tinywhoop? :)
Very nice! I need to get on velocidrone and start some training. Been lazy af lately lol. Too cold and wet to fly outside this winter here in Louisiana. We usually have a lot of rain in the winter but this year has been redamndiculous, and going from 60 deg weather to 16 in 24 hours was kinda drastic last week lol. I love training ladders. I still suck at them but get better a little each time. Way better with them on my 3” racers than I am my 5”. Not sure why but it happens.
@@MaiOnHigh oh I know how that is. But we haven’t been locked down totally since July where I’m at. But I did get burnt out on velocidrone last year lol. I must have been on it 10 hours a day for 3 or 4 months straight. Hah. But I am about to get back at it. 👍
Thanks for the video, Lexie! I want to ask about your settings. Do you tweak any of the sliders? Prop size, weight, etc.. I switched from velocidrone to liftoff because velocidrone has a strange “moon” gravity issue - the drone just hangs in the air on 0 throttle like a feather. I don’t see this problem with whoops mod, but 5”es are really crappy. I haven’t tried all off them, but really couldn’t find the one that flies like a normal drone. Liftoff feels much more realistic to me.
hmmm... I am thinking on how to share my settings and stuff in a nice and easily accessible way. Maybe a separate video that would just be posted in between normal video time? I do have a lot of settings touched indeed
@@MaiOnHigh Thank you! I’ve never tried this quad. Will give it a shot tonight with your settings. Still experimenting with rates. I have kind of similar to yours for racing, but for freestyle I like to add a bit of expo for smoothness.

That's totally true!
Sim is much more forgiving. Plus damn. Great explanation on your side 😱 love it
Miło oglądać :-D
Dziekuje!
The Ladder...... My worst enemy......
Use the track and maybe not anymore!
Great to meet you at Ash channel today. Im flying gps/camera drones and want to learn to fly fpv, you got a new subscriber from Norway
Hello and thank you! It was a brief meeting but ot was a lot of fun! If you have any questions - be sure to message me either via email or socials. I'd love to help! 💜
@@MaiOnHigh thanks for that, im pretty sure I need some help👍
nice video , what stick ends are they look really comfy ?
Those are the sticks they give with radio. Indeed comfy ☺️
Great video. Only thing I would add is that the setup is everything to get them tight. Good preturn as you enter makes it alot easier to hold speed through the ladder
Yes indeed. I thought people will remember from last lesson but I should repeat myself on that
5:15 when you're doing it in like 1 continuous move you have your camera like 45 degrees tilted on roll, interesting. If you've just overshooting, you normally hold the horizon. Just some observations...
Oh really? 🤔
@@MaiOnHigh Yeah so if you overshoot, you normally try to straighten the horizon, before you throttle towards another gate. So to me it would be some kind of an indicator that I'm doing that single move properly - if I keep that angle and not straighten the horizon.

@@AntonKoba I have never thought of it this way 😱
Also how is that move called when you have like 3 gates in line on the ground, and you go through all of them in a single corkscrew move but it's like 3 angled powerloops... might be cool to see a tutorial on that one.
In Europe we call it powerloops 🤔 as corkscrew js the gate and flag thingy I made a video about.
I will be making powerloops video ☺️
I am a new fan.
Thanks!

@@olekdh maybe some music helps? I have a couple of songs that get me into the mood right away and help me stay focused
Nice video :D
Thanks!
Great video! Quick q - why do you prefer velocidrone to LiftOff?
I can build tracks 😂 and I am used to it more.
I think liftoff is cool for freestyle, but for racing I do always use velocidrone. Plus a lot of online races are made there so it's my go-to sim
join igow next session, mybe u can make contents with it, :D
I need more input XD
holy crap your rates are so low. how do you fly like that?
Normal 😂 why is it bad? 😂
She goes fast. It's really counterintuitive, but lower rates mean you can be more precise with stick movements, and for going fast, it's actually preferable.

Aaaand where is that beautiful outro??? =)))
I made some fun ones for next videos. I'm slowly running out of ideas on outros XD
@@MaiOnHigh haha nice!
