FPV drones are remotely piloted aircraft equipped with cameras that provide a real-time video feed to the pilot through goggles or a monitor, giving them a first-person perspective of the flight.FPV reels often showcase dynamic and immersive aerial footage, typically featuring fast-paced flights, acrobatic maneuvers, and close proximity to objects or terrain. These reels are popular among drone enthusiasts, filmmakers, and videographers for their ability to capture unique and exhilarating perspectives.

The footage is typically captured using traditional cameras such as DSLRs, camcorders, or other professional video equipment. It is usually obtained from a third-person perspective, where the camera is operated separately from the pilot's point of view. This type of footage can cover a wide range of subjects and styles, including narrative storytelling, documentary, cinematic landscapes, interviews, and more. The primary focus may be on capturing specific moments, telling a story, or conveying a particular message or emotion.
