When I started flying FPV, I had a clear idea in mind.

I wanted to learn it step by step.

First the simulator.

Then a small drone.

Then move up to something bigger.

---

That’s how it started

Back in October 2024, I began with the simulator.

LiftOff.

I learned the basics there.

---

Then I moved to the DJI Neo

At first inside an old factory near our home.

Then outside in the park.

---

The plan was simple

Practice.

Get better.

Then move on to the Avata 2.

---

I got the Avata 2 in February 2025

But I didn’t really use it.

Not much confidence yet.

The spaces I was flying in felt too small.

---

So I kept flying the Neo

Battery after battery.

Getting used to it.

---

Then something changed

The repair service for the Neo ran out.

I didn’t have that safety anymore and I didn’t want to buy a new Neo.

---

So I had no choice

I started flying the Avata 2.

---

That pushed me out

Out of the small park.

Into bigger areas.

---

And that’s where things shifted

The flights became longer.

More open.

Less about control.

More about movement.

---

At some point I stopped thinking about progression

I wasn’t trying to improve step by step anymore.

---

I was just flying

Exploring places.

Seeing what was there.

---

And without noticing

That became the focus

---

Not FPV

Not the drone

---

But the places

The mountains

The rivers

The space

---

I didn’t plan that

I thought I would focus on getting better at flying

---

But it became something else

---

Looking back now

I didn’t end up where I thought

---

But I kept going

And this is where it led me
