I'm new to whoops/fpv quads. Let me know some drills and things you did to improve that I might try. I have liftoff that I use for learning new things first before trying them IRL.

Also, what's your main motivation/desire to move into wings? I have only flown wings fpv, and was considering getting a small fpv drone (I have a DJI mini, but that's not the same at all).

I made a great FPV trainer for fixed wing flying. Super easy to fly, pretty durable and very cheap!

Hi everybody. Really want to find a small fpv quad I can fly near where I live without annoying people too much. I mostly fly fixed wing besides my dji mavic mini (yeah, first gen...can't believe it still flies). I'm looking for a micro drone/whoop that is fun to fly, walksnail (because that's what I have), and can be relatively quiet if you aren't absolutely ripping it. I was thinking of something like the Firefly 2S Nano Baby 20, but no idea how loud they are. Looking for suggestions or input from others on what I should do.
Longer explanation for context:
I like fixed wing mostly because they are so quiet (or can be) in comparison to most quads so I can fly them at local area parks without people noticing too much if I stay > 100 ft, besides when I come in to land. It's not a safety thing (when is it actually, ever?), as I'm careful, don't fly if crowded, and I've never hit anyone or come close, but people unfortunately have a much more negative reaction to quads/drones than something that looks plane-like in my experience, even if it's nowhere near them. I live in a neighborhood near a major metro where they have not yet banned drones in parks, but have everywhere around me, so I'm hoping never to give people a reason to push a ban. People come up and ask me/talk to me about my planes (especially funny looking obviously diy ones) in a friendly manner, but I don't want this to change if start bringing out a quad sometimes.

More power than you would expect!
I put 2 of these on a twin version of an FT Slow Stick style plane I made, with emax scimitar 3.5 inch x 3 props, and even at 300 grams of weight, had tons of power on 3s. Would have been more than fine on 2s. On 3s, I bet it would have been flyable with just 1 motor. I plan to use these on small twin motor FPV planes I scratch build in the future, and based on initial tests, will be perfectly capable.

Hey everybody, just introducing myself to the community. I'm pretty new to FPV. Been flying RC planes line of sight for 2 years, have an old DJI mavic mini that I mostly use for sunrise/sunset or other scenic stuff, and just got walksnail L goggles and the moonlight kit a few months ago. Only have a about a dozen flights with it so far. It's winter/rainy where I live (Seattle area) right now, but I've still managed to get out and fly some wings.
I'm interested in flying with people in my area so message me if you are too.
My most recent hijinx:

I think the .3 expo and throttle idle point adjustment and throttle expo helped me today when I did a quick flight, but I don't really like how much harder I have to punch the throttle after coming out of a dive or maneuver now, but the other effects have been pretty positive, so perhaps I just have to get used to using more throttle now.
