GoPro Awards: Epic Drone Race at Night

48 Comments

1. Imagine doing this with the wireless VR goggles while being in a wind tunnel with a suit that relays your body movements over to the drone so you can control it with your body. . .

2. I need to upgrade to a gopro! Check out my stuff if you can 🙂 https://youtu.be/QoYDvCxKTcI

3. We need a tv Channel for that in Germany.

4. funny how slow they were

5. Haha, just like playing Wipeout antigravity racing games on PlayStation… so cool!!

6. This would have been way better without all the extra bullshit "points" and HUD added in post.

7. Am I in the future?

8. they need to look like podracers 😛

9. Amazing!

10. 666 like plz

11. just curious ，which software are used editing this subtitles ，looks very nice！

12. this is the best I've seen, you are a crack, congratulations

13. I just got triggered when I saw the speed boost!

14. Have you lot not played WIPEOUT 2097 ? Great video. Its what we dreamed of back in the day.

15. looks like fun

16. It's awesome but the huge hud kills the experience ro me.

17. Fun race footage, but I feel like the post production HUD and video-game like "score" really take away from the true FPV experience.

18. Crazy, remindes me of the old Playstation game Wipeout

19. Love the overlays. Some day….

20. this is possible and multiplayer but only need a course ,can't wait

21. dude this is super cool

22. This is stupid. This is the worst drp

23. When you see GoPro you expect it to be a great video, but then you see the hud and it all goes to shit. Good flight though

24. Ho Lee Fuk! Wi Tu Lo!

25. The HUD/OSD ruins it

26. Hahaha, I see what you did there, yes, it is a bit Wip3out IRL isn't it?

27. woow,, is amazing gguyss!!! game in real life

28. I was looking forward to a drone racing video by gopro (most drone racers carry a gopro session on their quads when they want to capture great looking HD footage) but this heavily dissappointed me. I mean I get that drone racing isn't for the mass market yet, but the HUD and especially the "power ups" (i mean, "turbo boost", really?) ruin all the true drone racing experience that this video could convey. The extremely dark track may look cool, but a nicely lit track outside in the woods or inside with some spectacular obstacles look much better in video.
    Drone racing is looking much more impressive, when the viewers get some perspective of the speed of the quads and size of the obstacles. In this video you can't really see if the obstacles are 50 cm or 5 m in size. You can do better than that, gopro!

    PS: I'm also sure that this wasn't a great lap from the pilot, as I'm sure he's a lot more capable than this. Probably because he didn't want to spend precious training time to fly with a gopro (that alters the way his ultra-light machine flies). A good pilot on a track that he got time to get used to can make the speed seem more unrealistic than this HUD. 😉

29. Race so slow you fall asleep

30. Cool man

31. That was turtle slow

32. A totally false impression of FPV.

33. Can someone explain to me what this is and where to go for more info and how expensive this is? Why in the world aren't the large formats of racing using this is my biggest question?????? This is way more accurate and engaging than just flying around way off course and it actually keeps people honest which is a huge deal IMO!!!

34. i thought i was very good at flying drones xD

35. im sorry but this guy isnt even that good.

36. the crap they added in post ruined an other wise great video.

37. Whipout.

38. Drone racing video game (simulator) !!! With real physics… 😉

39. this was AWESOME

40. whytf did you put so much bullshit on the screen

41. Holy shit, the future has arrived!!!

42. Pro This Is SO CooL AND Epic

43. I love the future!

44. noob

45. What the heck? I've never even heard of this. Can someone tell me more about it?

46. Is the HUD what pilot sees or it's just added there for the spectators?

47. wow. that is some skill.

48. Do a barrel roll!
