Unfortunately, like the last time a Ukrainian downed a helicopter with a FPV, people will hyperfocus on an imagined supremacy of drones rather than acknowledge the human skill of the pilot.

This is an expression of human skill and perseverance, not just a dumb techbro “drone beat helicopter” video. It takes immense HUMAN talent and patience to pull this off.
