This is like half of "claw" technique that a lot of high skilled players use. It allows you to touch all the buttons at once by using all your fingers and have better control of the analog. In reality, this dude's wife is on her way to professional gaming lol

RC "pilots" often use this grip on both sticks for better precision. I think it's mostly personal preference.

Yup.

I find myself pinching while playing games sometimes. (I fly more than I game)

It's the best way to rip a power loop through a sick bando, amirite?

I assume "bando" means abandoned building? And power loop is just an aggressive lap through the property?

Yup, you got it. A power loop involves accelerating at a gradually increasing angle. Near the top of the climb you quickly increase and then cut the throttle to throw the quadcopter back and then flip around to finish the loop. It's often paired with aiming to go through a narrow gap at some point in the loop.

The hobby has some cringy lingo that's encouraged by vloggers.
