I chase at my local grassroots track almost every weekend. Chasing newbie drifters is a lot harder than "pros". But I love getting footage of the newbies because they can learn from the footage. I fly at Apple Valley Speedway in SOCAL.

It’s cool to hear someone else talk about the struggles of chasing drift cars. It’s because of you I didn’t freak out the first time I got caught in a cars wash. You talked about it in a video or podcast or something. Keep these up.

8:7 with GoPro 12 log going forward is a game changer. That's all I run now. I fly at 30 fps at 180 shutter most of the time. 24 just doesn't look the best with chasing the drivers I get to fly behind and the tracks I frequent. I will fly a couple packs in 60 and 120 even just for variety sometimes because I'm capturing a variety of footage for events, not just FPV. I appreciate this breakdown and appreciate the idea for a new video this upcoming drift season.

Thanks for the insight to your process! Really liking these new dissection bits you’re making. Super helpful getting your perspective as a top tier professional FPV pilot.

[VinydFPV]

Sweet vid bro! Creators like you are the reason why I love fpv so much. Build em fly em crash em fix em and repeat!!!

[HarlockG]

Okay. That first dive into the chase was epic AF.

[WhatYouDRONE]

I love your view (share your tips and tricks) the fact is the personality of the pilot shows in the flying we all have something to offer the skills for this are so niche we can only get better

[FPZ]

This kind of flying looks so challenging to all your fpv skills!

[alexc_photos]

So cool, I hope to be living out there in the next 10 years. For now I'm on the east coast and this is my first season flying fpv at the track. I recognize a lot of those guys out there, been doing drifting photography for like 10 years at Club Loose and a season of Formula Drift before getting into drones 2 years ago and I'm totally hooked.
Great clip of Stuke! He's a cool dude and his car is wild, so many kevlar components on that thing.

[InsideoutFPV]

Really sound info man! I agree with everything! especially chasing good drivers, the more you trust them the closer you can get. I’ve had a FPV break..not through choice, I hope to get back to the drifting this year! I need to up my camera tilt..what’s your go to tilt for drifting? No need for sun protection here in 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 🤣🤣

[jessehoffman]

I started FPV 1.5 years ago and you were one of the first pilots i was introduced to online. next weekend i'll be filming my first drift event and couldn't be more excited.

[ZKingFPV]

Hey man I appreciate you putting this out and sharing tips. I've been considering getting my 107 so I can do this kind of stuff without breaking any rules lol. Can't wait to see more!

[American_patriot]

i like that your doing these, its cool to get to know pilots for more then just flying.

[AgroAaronFpv]

Great video man!! Love the talking format, and hearing your take on everything, super informative! Can't wait to see more like this especially your car collection and Mount Everest..
I usually lock all my settings in where nothing is auto and I have under exposed and overexposed some things lol I might try the auto shutter at the next event If there's clouds in the sky. Keep up the good work man!

I did everything backwards.. Started Road-racing in the late 90's.. did that for about 8 years(SCCA, NASA, Hyper-Fest, Honda-Challenge Series) and then had a bad accident which took me out of it due to neck injuries. I was also deep into photography at the time, so I came back with my own motorsports photography business, because I needed to be back at the track around the cars and the drivers.. kinda gets in your blood. Plus, there's nothing like the experience from the driver's seat to really give you the eye for where the car is going and how it's going to behave.. makes for some great shots. Had a car flip in the air one time at Summit Point, rolled twice and then came down on it's roof about 30 ft from me. Everybody was like, Dude! Why didn't you run! Just shrugged.. I was getting the shots, and I knew how far it was gonna go, based on the speed and angle it left the track. This was all before drones were a thing(2003ish-2008ish). If I had known I would get into drones I might have kept the business, but I needed to put my engineering degree to use in order to raise a family. So now, full circle, I'm into this ish and thanks for all your tips and breakdowns. Maybe I'll get back out to the track at some point. I've raced at all the east coast tracks so it would be cool to come back and fly some of them. Been following you since 2014.. keep doing what you do! 👍

[NomadStew]

@Mr Steele what are your opinions on practicing in Liftoff Slipstream mode? I spend hours a day chasing and I feel like I'm getting the basics and lots of chase time but I'm not sure how it will transfer to reality. This video is perfectly timed for me lol

[TankieFPV]

Big thnx for the inside!! Not done chasing driftcars or something like that. Did a bit chasing bmx/MTB on a pumptrack. Going to do some more of that and try to do MX wen the weather gets better here in 🇳🇱. Think the same apply’s to that as chasing driftcars.
Would like to see a video of your cars to. Good to see you back and in this kinda mood. Keep it up!!!

[baggszilla]

Love these videos! Keep it coming! All the ideas you've mentioned we would love to hear about them! Cheers!

[dronefirma]

Cool talk. Another talk about how you handle video when you get home. Storage and sorting what to keep and use

[perplexedintellectual]

Great vid. Love hearing your advice about this stuff it’s good to know. Much love from Oregon!
