In this segment of the video, the speaker discusses the importance of feed forward settings and RC smoothing in relation to stick movements in flying drones. The feed forward settings affect how the drone responds to quick stick movements, while RC smoothing adds delay to the receiver signal. The speaker recommends setting feed forward for fast stick movements and reducing or turning off RC smoothing to minimize signal delay for better responsiveness, especially for freestyle flying. By finding a balance between feed forward and RC smoothing settings, the pilot can achieve smoother flying with reduced delay in inputs.
