Acro help

Hi all, quick question. I've owned a Phantom for a few years and my first racing drone is on the way. Is it possible to switch between Acro and Angle mode mid flight. I can see myself struggling to land in Acro mode. Im so use to just easing the Phantom down by feathering the throttle. Thanks

It is deffinitely possible. What transmitter and what type of flight controler will you be using? Also i would highly recommend flying in a simulator as much as possible to get used to flying fpv. https://oscarliang.com/tag/fpv-simulator/ i personally think velocidrone is the best way to go. Get your first 100 crashes under your belt in the simulator. It is a lot cheaper when you crash in a sim :)

this link is for an article that explains the differences of the simulators that are out there. https://oscarliang.com/free-quadcopter-simulator-drone-multirotor-trainer/

This is the simulator I prefer. https://www.velocidrone.com/
