My freestyle quad has never felt this good
Well we win or we learn, and this time we learned... The 2018 European masters championship has come to an end, and after a long two days of competition I finished in third place, not my best result this year, but for sure some of my best flying happened at this event! The track was very challenging yet fast and fun to fly, and the race was run very efficiently. At the end of the day, I flew my best, my very best, and as I usually say, racing is 70 percent skill and 30 percent luck of the day. Unfortunately the luck wasn't in my favor at this race. I think minchan and sung ju flew an amazing race, they both flew smooth and consistent yet fast lines, and I have so much respect for these guys and all of the rest of the competition at this event! Congrats to @minchan_fpv for taking 1st and @park_sung_ju_fpv for taking 2nd as well as @banniukfpv for finishing 4th. The next step for me is to get ready for the 2018 Multigp National Championship this February where I will give it my all to defend my title! #xhover #flightone #thunderpowerrc #hqprops #runcam #hypetrain #rotorriot #droneracingparts #brain3d #spektrumrc
Flew my @xhoverllc stingy v2 frame for the first time today and I have to say this is the smoothest and most locked in freestyle build I have ever flown! Can't wait to fly it more soon :) ๐Ÿ”ฅ#xhover #xhoverstingyv2 #flightone #thunderpowerrc #hqprops #runcam #rotorriot #brain3d #spektrumrc #droneracingparts #dronefreestyle #envyastro
Been practicing hard almost every day while I'm here in South Korea! Some days go well and others go poorly , but today was a good day :) #MCKvsVANOVER #xhover #flightone #thunderpowerrc #hqprops #rotorriot #hypetrain #droneracingparts #brain3d #spektrumrc #runcam #drone #droneracing
Well it was another great weekend of racing, this time in Hong Kong! I ended up taking 2nd place in the 5 round final with a finishing score of 14 points to minchans 15! This was a big accomplishment for me because I finally feel like I've finally overcome the stress I get when flying against such great talent in an all important race like the finals. It's important to remember that there are always lessons to be learned in fpv drone racing and in my case the lesson of staying focused under pressure and flying your own race is one I could have only learned through what is probably one of the greatest rivalries this growing sport has ever had! I also want to congratulate @milkfpv for kicking our butts in the international open taking 1st place with @park_sung_ju_fpv in 2nd. Yo @minchan_fpv maybe we shouldn't take each other out in the first three rounds of racing ๐Ÿ˜‚. Another special shoutout to @andreferreirafpv and @steph_fpv for running pit crew for me throughout the entire race! I couldn't have done it without you guys changing my props and keeping my batteries charged! In the end this was a really fun race and a big learning experience for me. Just one more big race left of 2018 and my last chance to beat minchan this year is in Birmingham U.K December 1-2! Let the quest to be the best continue... #mckvsvanover #xhover #flightone #thunderpowerrc #hqprops #runcam #brain3d #spektrumrc #hypetrain #rotorriot #droneracingparts #dr1racing
About to wrap up practice day here at the 2018 Hong Kong drone racing challenge and boy is it a challenge! FYI some of the gates are only three and a half feet in width and height!! Anyhow here is my third practice round on the track, wish me luck as the SINGLE ELIMINATION rounds begin tomorrow, oh and turtle mode isn't allowed ๐Ÿ˜ฌ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜ญ #xhover #flightone #thunderpowerrc #hqprops #runcam #brain3d #droneracingparts #rotorriot #hypetrain #dr1 #spektrumrc #2018hongkongdronerace #guccimink
These last few weeks here In South Korea I've been training incredibly hard flying my racing drones to the limits and pushing myself to new heights! I'm so incredibly thankful for those who have supported me and continue to support me in my quest to be the fastest drone racer in the world! To my family, my friends , and of course my sponsors, I'm truly grateful for each and every one of you! I'm going to make you all proud! #xhover #flightone #thunderpowerrc #hqprops #rotorriot #hypetrain #droneracingparts #brain3d #spektrumrc #runcam #drone #droneracing #guccimink #allthebelts
Well...my win in Korea is bittersweet. While I had the opportunity to fly against two talented Korean pilots, quad issues kept @minchan_fpv out of the finals. When you donโ€™t get to fly against the best it doesnโ€™t feel like a real win. MinChan, I share this win with you! My battle to beat the best is to be continued! Either way I'm super happy to have won the 2018 FAI Gwacheon World Cup drone race here in South Korea and I want to take this moment to thank all of the people who have supported me. First off a huge thanks to Zachry Thayer @a_nubfpv for the amazing spotting throughout the elimination rounds and for keeping me calm when facing some of the insane competition! Secondly I want to thank all of my amazing sponsors for helping me continue to pursue my dream of being the best drone racer in the world. I couldn't have done this without you guys! I also want to thank SungJu Park @park_sung_ju_fpv and his wonderful parents for the amazing hospitality this last week ! I stayed with them in their home for the last few days up to the race training and preparing and they treated my like family! And finally thanks to all of the pilots who came together to make this event a great one. The best part about drone racing truly isn't the actual flying or the competition , but the friendships made behind the scenes. #xhover #flightone #thunderpowerrc #hqprops #spektrumrc #brain3d #rotorriot #hypetrain #runcam #droneracingparts #dr1 #dr1racing #drone #droneracing
Well the first week of my stay in Korea is almost over, and in the past 4 days alone I've flown over 200 packs getting up at 8am and flying till sunset each day! My @xhoverllc Vanover frames have held up great to the abuse of metal gates and the constant midairs with @park_sung_ju_fpv ! DVR will come soon of my practice but for now I gotta charge batteries and get packed up and ready for my first race of my stay here in Korea! #xhover #xhovervanover #flightone #thunderpowerrc #hqprops #droneracingparts #rotorriot #runcam #spektrumrc #dr1 #kdra #brain3d #drone #droneracing
Super happy to have taken 1st place in the @multigp south central regional finals here in Dallas this weekend! Even though it was pouring down liquid sunshine during and in between heats, and winds gusting over 30+mph towards the end, it still felt good to be racing at home and to be flying such an amazing track like the regional finals track. Congratulations to @mcgap_ for pushing me the whole day and taking a close 2nd place and for @itwillbefun.fpv for taking a well earned 3rd place! Also a special shoutout to everyone who helped out to make sure that this event happened, with all the rain it wasn't looking good for the race but thanks to the help of local chapter organizers @mckibben_fpv @old_man_fpv and many others like my wonderful mother @dronemomfpv and @rodeoannouncer we got it done! As always thanks to my amazing sponsors for their support! #xhover #flightone #thunderpowerrc #hqprops #foxeer #droneracingparts #rotorriot #hypetrain #dr1racing #spektrumrc #brain3d #adma20

Rotorriot Rampage 2018 was one of my favorite fpv events I have ever been apart of and for sure the most fun one I have attended this year! Can't wait for rampage 2k19! #rotorriot #rampage #flightone #foxeer #xhover #thunderpowerrc #gemfan #hqprops #brain3d #spektrum #quaddiction #droneracingparts
