While on a trip down to Florida, Josh and Alex had a chance to meet Charpu, a race quad pilot sponsored by Lumenier. Charpu shared some details about his quad setup and some of his flying techniques.
If you haven't heard of Charpu, check out his YouTube channel for some fast paced Quad flying. He has impressed us quite a bit with his skill as a pilot.
Charpu brought his QAV250 Quad along, showing off some of the custom parts he made himself and even his unique GoPro positioning.
Everything is moving so fast it feels like a video game! Charpu explains how he bumps the throttle for flips and rolls.
We've all had that moment, an on coming tree with no way out.
Luckily only the props were damaged and was a quick fix to get it back into the air.
Doing a few more laps, a squirrel is spotted running for cover!
It may seem like just a blur, but while demonstrating a backflip, Charpu bumps the throttle just a touch going into the flip to keep more altitude.
After a good run, it's easy to see why Charpu is starting to get noticed. He's a great pilot and an even better friend. To see more on Charpu, head over to his channel: here.
If you enjoyed watching Charpu and want to see other talented pilots, leave us a comment and we would love to fly with them. We wouldn't be where we are today without your support and we sincerely appreciate it! Until next time, see ya later!

More Mulitrotor racing!.. 250s, tri, quads, everything!
I think it would be awesome if you guys did an episode where you all raced eachother. I know its a totally different type of flying, but that would be awesome. Set up a course and go for it!
Loved this episode! Charpu in the man!
