[dadde87]

Awesome video dude!

I've been thinking of visiting Iceland to fly some FPV with my Tricopter. What's the best time of year to visit? Would you like to meet and fly? :D

[Kickahobo]

@dadde87 Hi David! I am glad you like my video!

I think it would be best to visit in the summer in May, June or July.

I live in Vestmannaeyjar though which is an island by the south coast of Iceland.

I am kind of still an FPV noob but I would love to fly with you :)

@cisco761 HE USES A TELESCOPE TO FLY IT LOL

@fordmustangeleanor Ég er með video sendi á vélinni og er með gleraugu með skjá á hausnum

[yittymitty11]

[ScooterEngan1]

[greeby62]

[bedarda10]

Awesome Flying!! My Hero2 ( HumbleOutdoors $270 w/free SD card) stays close to me. Your video has opened a new world of RC flying to me.

@Kickahobo

What did you say?!! "I am kind of still an FPV noob..."

No dude. Your are no FPV noob. That kind of proximity flying while wearing goggles at about a mile away is NOT a noob thing.

Great job!! Truly enjoyed it. Plus it was nice to see what I never see in Florida....snow and mountains.

[icanthackit11]

Amazing man, You are fearless! some pretty close passes there! You live in a beautiful place, love the look of Vestmannaeyjar!

[Glenstrom]
