I've chased the go-karts at San Antonio Karting Complex, just east of town before. It was a blast, but I used my DJI FPV Potato drone to chase them. The Avata (original) couldn't keep up. The owner has invited me back anytime I want to go, plus he's offering to let us set up a FPV Competition using his facility at some point.
Hey Ken. In my personal opinion, infeel that I really could do this. The key is knowing your own skill sets and having fun while doing it. I swear, man, if i lived in your neck of the woods, I'd be a much better FPV pilot, cause I'd be hanging out with you rippin. Glad to see another one of your fun epps (episodes)! You rock Ken!
trying to control something visually actually disconnects you from your inner ear vestibular system. this is the reason why people with inner ear issues can help their dizzyness with glasses with some fluid to keep a reference of actual motion
It seems like other than the G forces it would be like trying to follow an enemy plane in a video game. But I’m sure it’s not that easy if Ken was challenged.
Hey, Ken! My son told me they’re planning to reopen the drag strip across from DKC. He’s the track supervisor at DKC but was off that day. Maybe next time y’all can drag race drones or something 😂
Love DKC! We have a few cool videos downtown if you want some new ideas. Let us know next time you roll through DFW, wed love to show you a couple of our favorite places!
Dallas karting complex? Yeah in Caddo Mills in Hunt Country, almost 30 miles east of Rockwall. At least the go carts get enough business. But somehow the area complains about noise from the drag strip right next to the highway and it doesn’t generate enough money to stay going, and then we wonder why street racing happens when all the race tracks get closed..
It's harder than it looks it really is. I tried flying my Avata in front of me while walking on the railroad tracks. It just wasn't happening i was tripping over everything 😂
flying wile riding is hard af and can make you "seasick" but I followed my dads side x side while "riding and flying" and didn't crash lol super weird feeling though
No way could I ride and fly. It took months in the sim to eventually get over the horrible motion sickness I've had all my life. To this day I can't even mess with my phone in a moving car or play a VR game 😅. Boggles my mind that I'm able to fpv at all
Hey Ron! Those spiral parking garages are actually pretty rare anymore. Turns out, they are a very inefficient use of space and are no longer being built. It was totally fun flying it though!
you should try to get on joe rogan to just spread the word about whats happening to our hobby like the RID and the dji ban and everything else some one needs to show him what we do and how important this tech is

Always good to see old friends.
I said vertigo before you said vertigo. Man you squeezed in a lot. Always good!! Great content.
Lol! Good video! I was standing behind you guys when you flew the drone into the fence.
It made a hell of a sound, didn't it? I thought for sure it would be in a thousand pieces. 🤣

Man that's bad ass I would love to chase a go cart good stuff Ken 👍👍👍
It's really fun You should try!
No way I get messed up just by hearing things near me I can’t imagine riding and flying.
So cool Ken and the video was a great job as always.
Glad you enjoyed it!!
Oh cool. You were in my neck of the woods. Funny how DKC isn't even in Dallas county, much less the city. Way the Hell out in Caddo Mills.
That amount of land would cost them 10x as much on the other side of the lake 😂

5:40 The Tower of the Friendly Mercantile
Thanks!
That's Badass! I started youtube with gokarts! Great Video @Ken !
Oh wow that's really cool!
So glad you enjoyed the video.
Great job Ken
This place is a ton of fun!
Not quite the Red Bull F1 drone guys where they can overtake the F1 cars on the track. 🤠👍 Great footage there Ken!
Thanks Chris!

Oh heck yeah that would be awesome! Please email me and we can set something up for my next visit down there to Texas. Thanks!

Nice Ken. Another great vid. Love your content.
I appreciate that!
Yesss. Looking forward to this one 🎉🎉😊
Nice flying around the track, Ken!
Thanks! It was super hot but very very fun.
Love DKC! We have a few cool videos downtown if you want some new ideas. Let us know next time you roll through DFW, wed love to show you a couple of our favorite places!
Hey that would be amazing! I would have loved to met up with some local FPV people. Send me a message: kenheron@gmail.com

I don’t know what it’s called now, but the “clock building” originally was the Mercantile Bank building.
Thanks for the info!
I love this place!!!
Iv been there and raced! I usually got to downtown Dallas a lot to do photography of the skyline
It's a beautiful city!
DAMN KEN another banging video!!!! KEN's on fire!! So good! "I josselled it" Hahahahhaha❤❤❤ you so funny....😅😅😅
So glad you enjoyed the video! It was a really fun day down there in Dallas. 😎🤘
It's harder than it looks it really is. I tried flying my Avata in front of me while walking on the railroad tracks. It just wasn't happening i was tripping over everything 😂
Can confirm, almost impossible offroad😂
Building dives. Ahhhhh yeah! 👍

Bumble Bee tuna!
I park here on a regular basis and I purposely go to the very top, so I can go down the spiral. I have a Smart Car, so it's more fun. lol.
Oh cool!
I bet you could really get going down that thing. 🤓👍
Why does he have to tell you when he is going to turn?
Your following him and can see the turns as they come up.
Hey DKC, hurry and take my money before I smarten up and get second thoughts. Those things cook
You’re making me sick just watching it. How the heck did you do that?😂😂😂😂
That’s the friendly Mercantile
I’ve been there as well. But couldn’t make it all the way to the top. How did y’all get there?
There's a stairwell
@@KenHeron I should have thought about that.
No way could I ride and fly. It took months in the sim to eventually get over the horrible motion sickness I've had all my life. To this day I can't even mess with my phone in a moving car or play a VR game 😅. Boggles my mind that I'm able to fpv at all
Nah man depends on how much you weigh but you'll never get over 40 mph on the entry lvl karts and that's 60&$ for 10 mins
I’d like to fly with you one day. Watch all your videos. I’m 2 hr south of Nashville in Savannah.
Heck yeah! Email me: kenheron@gmail.com
I couldn’t do this still trying to master FPV.
Keep going, you'll get it!!🤘
That’s looks like fun
Totally fun! 😎🤘
Ha, live very near there.
... and now you sell the footage to the company for their next tv commercial / streaming ad, riiiiight?
That would be awesome
Fun stuff✊
It was!
The Go-kart track was cool, but I really liked that parking garage in Dallas. Great flying Ken, and thanks for sharing.
Hey Ron! Those spiral parking garages are actually pretty rare anymore. Turns out, they are a very inefficient use of space and are no longer being built.
It was totally fun flying it though!
I would expect to puke after a couple of turns...
I'm not at all surprised that you crashed while riding in the go-kart. Good try though!
I would be puking
🤓👍🤮
Cool!
Thank you sir
😎🤝
Mario !!!!!!!
Purdy cool #Like100
You still in Texas?
Back in Tennessee
you should try to get on joe rogan to just spread the word about whats happening to our hobby like the RID and the dji ban and everything else some one needs to show him what we do and how important this tech is
More Ken Gold ‼️
Very much appreciated!!
my mini 3 pro could do it. but that would be cheating because i would use active track
I don't think active track would work in this situation. I just don't trust automatic flying settings though.
@@KenHeron I cannot tell a lie. I want a good FPV drone cuz I want to start diving buildings and doing stuff just like was in this video
