I have searched vid after vid. This is the first one that ACTUALLY shows and explains how to fly in Manual Mode Thank you!!
Hope it helps you 🤌🏻 i want to do more videos on the Avata so if there’s anything you want to see, let me know!
Hey Danny! I'm a new Avata 2 owner. I have not yet attempted manual flying with my actual drone yet. However, I've been hitting the simulators hard all week with my controller. Over 10 hours of flying virtually this week, and really struggling to gain control of the drone and be consistent with my flying. Your video, especially the part about rates, INSTANTLY changed my life. The only thing I did was change max rate to 360 and yaw to 200. I'm able to maneuver the drone so much easier now it's unreal. Thank you so much for explaining this stuff and showing examples. You are a legend.
🙌🏻🙌🏻 it’s what i’m here for!!!
What simulators are you using? Dji doesn't have an official avata 2 sim..
@@PLMREP I'm using their manual mode controller plugged into my PC and I'm flying Liftoff primarily. I also have Uncrashed and Tryp FPV as well.
Well I can honestly say, flying a FPV drone whilst explaining what i’m doing is the hardest thing i’ve attempted so far on this channel 😂
You did a very good job, and earned my sub!
You did great, I have difficulty explaining driving an RC car while driving, I couldn't imagine doing it with an FPV drone.
You did very well... You can tell and show how to move the sticks... But only using the sticks in practice can you ever learn to do it yourself..
Enjoyed your efforts of demonstrating the stick control. Respect.
Coordinating left and right sticks for turns seem to be a direct comparison to flying an rc plane with turns using both ailerons and rudder.Using rudder only(left stick) on a plane spins the rear-end in that direction,using the aileron (right stick)as well as the rudder banks the aircraft in a smooth turn... (?)
Excactly what I needed. You addressed all my pain points and explained it super well. Also awsome video quality. Thanks a ton!
Thanks mate!! I need to do more videos on the Avata by the sounds of it 😂 this video did really well and helped loads of people such as yourself. Thanks for watching 🙌🏻
Extremely helpful ,I’ve been struggling to keep it in the air and you have just given me some clarity
Tips from me, spend some time practicing with simulator to get used with the joystick, then try to play outside with minimum attitude at 50m above the ground, try to adapt and feel how the wind speed and gravity pull to the drone, because imo that's the main difference between real life and simulator, hope it helps
Yeah the gravity never feels right on a sim 🤣
@@DannyBligh ikr, i actually set my sim gravity to 20-30x, it kinda feels natural tho
No joke, the DJI Virtual Flight sim is an absolute must for anyone starting out. Pity anyone who went near water first time trying manual, LOL. It's brutally hard.
@@Substance2020 😂😂😂 even after 6 years i hate water, i stay away if i can
@@DannyBligh I just got the manual controller today but have enjoyed skimming over water with the motion controller...it has to be done it's just too cool not to.😅
This video has actually got me flying in manual with a flippy roll just for good measures. Thankyou you explained it perfectly
🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
Brilliant video. I've been playing with Uncrashed and TrypFPV. Whilst I imagine that I'm not flying with similar weight, power and physics to the Avata (Trying to get all the exact adjustments regular rates for an Avata off people is like getting blood out of a stone), it is STILL teaching me how to fly FPV and I'm sure I can transfer those skills tentatively over to my Avata when I actually pluck up the courage to fly it in full ACRO outside. I've flown LOTS of times with the MC and in Normal mode. I actually learned here that once you have inputted your forward tilt on the right stick, it maintains that degree of tilt until it is countered. This would explain why when I'm using a SIM, it seems I'm always looking at the ground or constantly climbing 🤣. That said, I've had many decent flights in the sim so surely, I can do it for real outside. Danny, thank you for providing this tutorial.
Ps. if you have any insight as to what settings a person can make in the likes of Uncrashed and Tryp to get the drones in there to fly like or as close to the Avata as possible, that would be awesome.
Well done! Appreciate the explanation.
My pleasure!!! ✌🏻
Brilliant tutorial, very comprehensive. thank you!
My pleasure!!! Keep an eye out for more avata videos 🙌🏻
I just placed my order for one of these and found your channel. Top quality job. Liked and Sub'd.
Get on that simulator for a bit to begin with! 😂😂 but you’ll be fine! Enjoy it and if you need any help with things, let me know
One more like, one more sub! Amazing video, well explained, great job! I'm just new to FPV drones, bought my Avata 3 days ago and im just running simulator and made my first flight yesterday on normal mode. Really love how manual mode looks like but i'm sure i need a few more flight hours on Normal mode then start on Manual mode on Simulator.
Great video, thanks bro! Cheers
It’s my pleasure!! It’s not super easy but you’ll get the hang of it. I have a few other videos on it and i may or may not be planning another. If there’s anything in particular you want to see, let me know!
I also just got into fpv, crashed my dji fpv and just had it repaired, I also just picked up the avata and I’m stoked to start flying it!
thank u very much for the tutorial..
Wow! Finally something more detailed than most of how-to videos 👏 Excellent explanations, helps heaps 🙌 Good job bro 🎉
It’s a pleasure!! This video is old and haven’t done much on the Avata since but planning on doing more content in the channel with it. If there’s anything else you struggle with, let me know
@@DannyBligh Nice! I’ve been filming with cine drones for quite some time snd finally got my hands on Avata. Manual mode is soooo different from any flight I have done. Planning to document my journey through 😉
Great explanations, Dunny. Thank you!
Sick video! Well explained and all the info needed in a short time, cheers
Thank you!
Great video. Very informative
Fantastic video,waiting for mine to arrive in the post ,wish me luck im going to need it i think. lol
I just got my avata today, I need to practice & learn 🤝😎
Don’t crash it! Hahaha. Good luck!
@@DannyBligh thank you, I just have my first fly & it was great 🤝
@@jesusgjchuza6491 well done mate!
Thanks for making this video Danny, super useful as I've only used the motion controller 2 +Googles 2 + Avata FPS
It’s a big learning curve but you’ve got this 🙌🏻
This was helpful, thanks Danny.
Well Danny great video .. great breakdown on fpv… trying to learn it and trying to get the time to practice it. Hope all is well
Thanks Michael! That’s one of my issues to 😂 been planning this video since November but the weather and my schedule just hasn’t worked together.
Get on the sim! That’s what I do, plus it’s better than smashing your drone 😂 thanks for watching mate!
Hey Danny sound advice.. just over the pond here in Ireland we are getting the same weather wish roll on summer. Thanks for your help
I have become quite proficient in flying rc planes and camera drones.Planes require throttle aileron and rudder....would Avata manual mode be closer to rc plane control? Has anyone here had any experience in both ?
Hi Danny, thanks for the videos!
If you have any like special maneuvers it would be cool to see a tutorial on how to perform them.
I'm thinking of any move outside the realm of normal control of the drone. I guess that's what's called acro or acrobatic moves. Just got my FPV Remote 2 today and your guides have been great help getting set up 🙌🏻
Off to try out the simulators 🫡
What's your favorite simulation app to practice with btw?
Sure thing! But tbf this is where the Avata struggles. The motors combined with a small prop size gives it very little power that the moves I use to make back in the day with my home made fpv drone are hard to make (not impossible entirely) as the Avata can do it but not in a super stable manner even a drop needs a fair few metres to stop. But i’ll see what I can do!
And liftoff is pretty damn good! The issue you’ll find with the sims is they normally have Betaflight controls, you fly them the same way but the rates you change don’t translate well but you can get it close. I mainly use the sim to keep the muscle memory and over time you can just adapt, similar to driving a car!
Nice
very susefull, I just lean fav with Velocidrone for 2 days, very hard , but very fun
Yeahhh it’s definitely not something you can just do straight away. But it gets easier! Remember, small movement on the controls!
well done! Appreciate the explanation.
My pleasure!! Took me 3 whole batteries and about 70 mins of flying just to do this 😂 hope it helped!
Great video, thanks man !!!
My pleasure! Hope it helped
Great video. Thanks 😃👍
My pleasure Jaune!!
ty for this great video!
My pleasure, Robert! Thanks for watching
So I need to purchase a MC controller. I have a little toggle joystick and I’m only able to use normal sports mode. I noticed that my drone pulls the left or right when I use those modes
Solid advice!!
Thank you! 🙌🏻🙌🏻
Excellent video!! Bro, which video do you talk about adjusting the controller stick?
Thanks!! Hope it helps!
ruclips.net/video/oOy2Frjyn-k/видео.html
There you go ✌🏻
Hi Danny, thanks for the video. Can you talk more about rate expo for beginers flying mode M ???
I did start planning one but it became way too complicated 😂 but i may revisit it! Thanks for watching
Great video dude
Thank you! 🙌🏻
I just got an Avata hand me down and I have goggles and a joystick type controller and I haven't been able to get it off the ground at all. It's killing me; I just want to fly sigh
Kudos to the video and your hardwork!! May i know the rates at which your flying the avata?!?
Off the top of my head, sensitivity is 10, expo 0.7, max rate is 720 for roll and tilt, 450 for yaw.
I’m away from home at the moment for Christmas however once i’m home, i’ll check and if i need to then i’ll update the above
@@DannyBligh thats cool and thanks for the reply man!!
Great video 👌🏻. I know this is gonna sound stupid but what’s the difference between normal mode and manual mode. Wouldn’t normal mode always be classed as a manual mode because it’s your controlling it
In both normal and sport mode, the gyro in the Avata keeps the drone upright no matter what. If you're flying forward and you let go of the forward control, the avata will stop and hover. Very similar to a DJI Mavic if you have ever flown one of them.
Whereas in manual mode, it's very much like flying a helicopter. You can flip the drone, make it dive, and treat it like a traditional FPV drone. Have a look at somebody like Mr Steele or even the Drone Racing League :)
@@DannyBligh cheers mate. I’ve ordered the remote I can’t wait. Could you recommend a good simulator I can use on my laptop. Gonna have a watch through a few of your videos. Your Chanel looks amazing 😁
Great video. Best one I’ve seen so far on how to fly the Avata in Manual mode.
One controller button that I haven’t seen being reviewed in detail is the manual mode Start/Stop button.
I see that you’ve used it to start the motors when tapping it twice, but what happens when the drone is in the air in Manual made and you tap it once? I looked in the Controller 2 manual and it’s not clear as to what the single push does when in Manual mode.
Thanks.
Hey dude!!!
Thank you first off. To answer your question, for my drone nothing (i don’t think). My way of thinking is, it’s easy to accidentally tap a button. Don’t want to tap a button and the Avata to just drop
@@DannyBligh Thanks.
Any possibility that you have a video that show what the sticks control?...it is obviously different from a camera drone....I watched the whole video, but because I don't know what responses I should expect, it really didn't make any sense to me
It’s actually no different to a drone like a mavic. Left stick controls altitude and left/right. Right stick is rotate left/right and move forwards and backwards. There’s a few videos on the channel about the avata, hopefully they help you more
@@DannyBligh Thank you for taking the time to respond...I appreciate that
How many hours have you spent on simulators? Which do you prefer for manual / Acro? Good video. Explained a lot.
Probably 200 over the last 6-7 years.
And which do i prefer for manual/acro - you mean which sim?
For a while I used velocidrone back in the day when I flew my home built drones. But since the avata came out, i moved to liftoff
How do you know if you have properly set up the controller for manual mode? The left stick should be relaxed for up-down, while for left-right it should be like in normal mode..if you understand me return to the center
Yeah, that's right! :) This video will help ruclips.net/video/oOy2Frjyn-k/видео.html&
What is the difference between Manual Mode vs Normal Mode
Normal mode it will act like a mavic and self level. Manual mode won’t
👌👌👌
Hi, i recently purchased DJI Avata. And i bind my Google 2 and Avata and controller with PC using Assistant app. I didn't upgrade any firmware, I'm able to start the motors. On gogles OCD i get message Flight restricted, bind phone number. What does it mean ?
yes but will the pause mode work when you inside and not enough satellites ? Thats the whole reason for me to try manual some properties have no GPS
It should do as the no flight controller requires gps to self level. It uses just a gyroscope.
The gps functions on DJI drones are used for the return to home functions
Hey Danny, do you use throttle with the left stick or right?
Thank you for the awesome video!
May I know what is your current rates for the DJI Avata?
It's my pleasure!
Off the top of my head, I'm not 100% sure. I think it's something like my expo is around 0.70, max rate 720.
If you're just starting, try these
60 650 .4
60 650 .4
60 500 .4
It is possible to flight in M Mode with motion controller ? Thank you
No, sorry
BUY LONGER STICKS!! The rc2 has sorry short stick throw so every input is over exaggerated. Ten bucks for adjustable length sticks will help more than 20 hours practice
Absolutely, longer sticks definitely help. I’m pretty comfortable now but at first I was so use to the ones on my Frsky from years ago 😂 even the feel of the whole in terms of size were throwing me me off.
Definitely recommend trying them
Nice video. Watched it again actually just after the first crash of my avata. Been practicing on simulator since long. Now i got my avata last week. Tried manual mode today for the first time. Crashed it. One of the motors near to memory card slot ripped off. The frame is broken. All I did was switched from normal to manual and as I was trying to control the drone, it crashed hit the ground, went in air again and hit the ground again. I guess that happened 3 times. Could you tell me what went wrong here?
Thanks for the video. I'm struggling to fly manual mode, I always end up on the ground after about... 30sec !!! 😞hope your advice will help.
It takes same, be super gentle. If there’s anything you need to know and can’t find then let me know. Happy to make more content if its going to be useful
@@DannyBligh Yes, I'm probably not gentle enough. Do you think that changing the rates can help ?
hi Danny good video, thanks for the tips. Can you answer if you let the spring too in the right stick or is the same as the left one?
The right stick is as it comes from the factory. You want everything except the throttle to be springy still
@@DannyBligh thank you buddy!
I’m going to send my goggles 2 back and order the Integra. Just ordered the avata and this came out. Haven’t even flown yet .. you think the integra will be upgrade for the avata ?
I haven’t had a massive read about this new release yet, but from what I can see it’s just an integrated battery on the headband? And then obviously the motion controller 2 but I don’t really use it.
I like the integrated battery idea! Similar to the fatsharks i use to have but you could 3d print a battery holder and do the same thing. Unless there’s something major that i’m missing 🤷🏻♂️
Great video. What would you set the camera angle to get started.
Around 15-20 degrees. You want it low enough so you can go slower, the more angle the faster you’ll go due to the angle of the drone needed to get that camera looking straight forward
@@DannyBligh Brilliant thanks. I’ll try that. Your flying looked outstanding by the way. The way you control altitude so low to the ground is very impressive.
Thanks Mark, it's from a lot of practice over the last 6 years. Tbf I'm a little rusty! If I can help with anything else, just ask!
@@DannyBligh cheers mate I’ve set to 15 and the penny is starting to drop now on how it’s done. Just got to get it to be instinctive rather than seeing a corner and thinking!! Then get more accurate. All in the simulator not gonna risk the real thing yet obviously.
So I’ve adjusted the spring in the left analog should it be on channel 2 and also do you do anything to the springs in the right analog
I only adjust the spring for the up and down motion on one stick, everything else is as it came from the factory
I am looking at the footage from my avata.. the colors dont seem great.. doesn't really look like 4k HD to me.. am I doing something wrong ..? maybe for some reason my settings weren't set to 4k..
I do find the image to be a little soft on the Avata, I always find myself doing more in post processing for it to get a decent image. Double check your settings or make sure the file resolution is 3840x2160 rather than HD which is 1920x1080
Your camera might be set to D-Cinelike colors which is what you'd probably want if you're going to do any post processing. If I remember correctly it's at the far right on the pull-up menu in the goggles. Or you can go into the side menu -> Settings -> Camera
(all from memory so hope that's understandable and correct)
Hi Danny thank u for your videos, u look like the Ukrainian prez though 😅
I've literally just burst out laughing! I can't really see the huge resemblance other than the beard but sure, you're the first to ever make that connection so I'll just say thanks? And move swiftly on! ha!
better analogy might be small ball on a bigger ball 😂
😂😂😂 maybe!! But we all know how hard that is 🙄
@@DannyBligh exactly
I used to fly airplanes in the military...can't get used to this PlayStation crap...
I wish someone makes throttle and joystick like in the helicopters
Yeah, it’s bizarre that FPV drones never use a proper joystick.
Tbf, DJI do allow you to fly it using a motion controller, which is pretty much a joystick
@@DannyBligh I know... but not on all drones
damn thing had horrible range
Just started watching video and straight away am disagreeing, you make FPV sound real easy its not, proper FPV you don't have a pause button or a professional setup, you have to set it up in betaflight and if things go wrong you recover it yourself or crash, it took me many hours on a sim and repair money to get it right
No, but this video is about the DJI Avata mate 😂 i don’t mention Betaflight or any other flight controller software. FPV isn’t easy, I built and flew quads such as the Chameleon maybe 6 years ago. Took me months to get it even in the air stable through a full battery.
This is strictly for DJI in terms of the pause button. But flying fpv in general in manual, the stuff I go through later in the video can actually be applied to any FPV drone
WHICH STICK MODE ARE YOU USING IN THIS AMAZING TUTORIAL?
Mode 2 🙌🏻
i was the 100th like
🙌 🙌 🙌 🙌 🙌 🙌 🙌 Congratulations to you! haha
The best help I could find / great example with the ball on the plate. U R the best teacher I must confess - teaching is an art and you are a teachingArtist.
