What is FPV?

​​

​

​FPV (First Person View) is a way of flying drones using a live video feed from the drone’s camera, making it feel like you're on board. This allows for smooth, dynamic, and immersive shots—perfect for capturing cinematic footage and showcasing spaces in a unique way.

Why is FPV unique?

 

​FPV is unique because it offers fast, agile, and low-altitude flight paths that traditional drones or cameras can't achieve. It creates immersive, cinematic shots that feel like you're flying through the space—ideal for dramatic reveals, tight indoor turns, and dynamic movement that grabs attention.

Why haven't I heard of FPV?

 

​You might not have heard of FPV before because it's a niche part of the drone world that's only recently started gaining mainstream attention. It’s been big in racing and hobbyist circles, but using FPV for cinematic filming is a newer trend—especially for real estate, marketing, and creative content. Now that gear is more accessible and the footage stands out so much, it’s starting to pop up more in commercials, social media, and promos.

So can anyone fly an FPV drone?

 

Not quite—FPV flying takes skill and practice. Unlike standard camera drones that hover and self-stabilize, FPV drones are fully manual and require complete control from the pilot. It’s like the difference between driving a car and racing one. It takes days to learn the basics and years to master—especially to the level where you can fly smoothly through tight indoor spaces for cinematic house tours.
