Unlike aerial photography drones, FPV drones don’t stop to avoid obstacles or maintain elevation. They fly & turn based solely on pilot input and can move across all 3-Dimensional axes. This is why it is so important to learn these controls on a Simulator first!

The throttle controls the vertical up and down motion of the drone, pitch is the forward and backward tilt of the drone, roll is the side-to-side tilt of the drone, and yaw is the left and right rotation of the drone.
