So this is a topic that comes up fairly often, and I’m finally glad to be able to post some of the thoughts and processes and how to get started making a living with FPV. While I certainly don’t have all the answers, I wanted to pull together some content talking about at least what’s worked for me.

WHAT IS THE BEST CAMRA TO START A UTUBE CHANEL
Nice, nice, NICE!!! 😀
That first year… How many hours did you put in before your first race? Intrigued by your successes bro, its motivating!
Hi Nurk!You said that at the beginning during the youtube university,you saw some fpv videos that inspired you….
Now,your videos are inspiring for all the fpv community…
Fpv madness…
Keep it up Nurk!
Would you be my friend? I’d love to hangout and fly with you! You are a amazing person and I could learn a ton from you! ?❤️???
Great vid! I’m going to go the www of the drone festival and purchase the course and watch all of the videos in a loop! Thanks Nurk!!??
Great video thank u
that autofocus tho
tq bro sharing tips
Trying to find your Masterclass…
I’ll stick to my daytime job, I like eating, hahaha. besides, it’s illegal for me without lots of permits and mandatory training, log books and flight plans.
Thanks so much for this. Filming is my goal, even in my mid 40’s. ?
Great video, Paul! ?
Thanks for sharing!
Stay safe there with your family! ??
I purchased the discounted ticket and did all the sign ups and registrations but the NYCDFF is not long up on the Filmocracy website. I’d like to watch the master classes. Can you help?
“I know $60 is alot of money” yea I definitely agree but compared to how much we spend on parts, thats nothing lol
Which feature film did you worked on?
you have plenty of hair…dont buzz it. cut the sides short and grow some length on top. if you care for my opinion or advice email me at dkspaceguitar@gmail.com. my wife and I own and operate a salon. i would be more than happy to give you free advice and info. seriously.
I just do it for the lulz
Thank you for sharing with us. I appreciate it. It’s difficult to come up with “the next step” in professional drones.
I have drones and equipment for building and maintaining drones now, but it can be difficult to try and apply these things productively, at least that’s been my experience out here in Pennsylvania.
My next step would probably be to create some free content to display my abilities. I know I’m a good pilot, but uploading a flight video to YouTube is only going to get me pats on the back. I need to create some content that begs the question “how did you get that shot?”
Im so pumped to find out that NYDFF is a thing!
Thanks for this Nurk! Flying and filming for a living is my dream.. ty for the info ??
How to make money from fpv?
-Make a lesson video about how to make money from FPV and get it on New York drone festival website 😀
Hey Nurk, how long is your discount code going to be good for? Definitely want to pick this up in the next week!
I would pay good money to become JohnnyFPV apprentice
Awesome, just bought it and I’m looking forward to watching them all. I’m just a hobbyist but have recently had requests from Real Estate colleagues so I’m trying to improve my skill set.

After speaking with Jenny from Airvue we found the issue for not being able to access the masterclass.
Filmocracy.com is the one hosting the masterclass.
If you didn’t receive an email from them after purchasing your ticket from elevent just head over to Filmocracy.com and register there using the same email address you used to purchase the ticket and you should be all set. I’ve only been able to watch a tiny amount of the classes available and tbh I’ve already learned a couple things. If you are trying to improve your skill set I would recommend getting it.

I’m surprised by your “Government” type of contracts – I really thought they would use their own people for that kind of work (military personnel).
You have an amazing resume/journey Nurk. Most fascinating is that you got your first quad as a gift from your in-laws. God bless the people who walked into a store, saw a “toy drone” and thought – “Nurk would LOVE this!” That is SO cosmic on so many levels bro!!! (LOL I know they probably thought of you as you Paul ?)
