Startups tips...

Download the drl.io/videogame and set up your profile. Then connect a game controller to your pc.

Setup a game controller as a ps4 and change the invert pitch and invert throttle. Turn off mid throttle and turn on raw input too. Save it and use that. You will get way better control . Still tough but better by far than what I started with.

I managed to complete the third level of training. Only got a 1 of 5 prop reward on that level where I got 5 of 5 on levels 1 and 2, but I finished all 5 challenges of level 3.

I can now go refine my flight on the training and earn more reward props.

I still think it is all in refining the controller setup in order to achieve better stability. But I feel I am starting to get the hang of it, sloooowly!

All in all its pretty fun as you learn to fly it.

Pretty heavy skill learning curve but in the long run it is worth the effort to gain the abilities.

Freestyle single play is a great way to continue to hone your skills after training is done. Then find a friend and try a multiplayer race!

Give it a try, it's remarkably accurate to real drone flight. You can even use real rc controllers and vr headsets!

More information on how the settings work.

I'm really starting to get much better at long term flight. I still need lots of work on my fine control like in close quarters areas and going from high gates to low gates, but in just an hour I'd say I improved to 10 times better control and agility.

There is a local drone racing group. I think they race on S. MacArthur but not sure about that.
