    With my avata 1 i can fly pitch black area with no issue, slalom around people on extremely low light condition.
    With my avata2 same condition the drone go autocrazy mode full throttle a pure danger if there is people around, take a drone at 60km in your face th story can end very badly.
    What the point to put better sensors to have a missile who can go crazy at everytime "low light warning"??
    Ive got hundreds of hours at night with my avata 1, never one issue.
    With the avata 2, start by an auto drift, then you have one solution to recover, to push full speed to an area with more light. If not it start by a drift, and after a collision the avata2 go full speed on every direction. This thing is a danger.

    You can straife with the motion controller with the thumb joystick but it's very slow. Head tracking also adds a lot to what you can do as far as mimicking normal drone movements and it also does things you can't do with a normal drone.
    You can turn on horizon steady instead of EIS, and it keeps the drone locked to the horizon, it needs to be in 16:9 for this option to show up. Even at 200 ft in high wind today it made a huge difference. It takes care of the stability issue you were talking about indoors 100%
    I build my own drones and I hated the way it flew with the FPV controller 2, prefer the the motion controller, I'd just rather fly one of my DIY drones if I want a normal radio.
    The low light situation is the biggest drawback IMO, I was flying around my house, I flew into a dimly lit bedroom, and it drifted into a wall, freaked out and disarmed, dropping to the floor
    *edit I have been made aware you can speed up roll by changing the rates

    Awesome video Demetrios! The Cinelog25 looks ideal. It's also sub250 with the right battery and naked gopro! I ended up buying the Cinebot30 but it really feels too strong for indoor flight with my naked gopro 11 and 1100mah 6s. I almost regret not getting the cinelog25 v2 or the new Pavo20 pro. What would you buy now for video tours inside to out on construction & real estate?

    • @DimmyV
      @DimmyV  4 дня назад

      This will depend on the space, if it's a really small space then a small Cinewhoop would be fine. If you have more room the Cinebot 30 should be fine. If I was to buy now I would buy the DarkStar (which is tiny) and I would buy the Cinelog25 v2. I've enjoyed my experience with GPERC. I plan to buy eventually, just waiting for O4 air units! I've not bought or used BETAFPV Pavo20 to be able to recommend it.

    Hi everyone,
    I have a question regarding my DJI Avata. I’m trying to use 4K at 60 fps with the ultra wide lens and HorizonSteady, but it seems like these settings are not compatible. Does anyone know why the DJI Avata restricts certain stabilization modes with specific resolutions and lenses? Is there any way to bypass these limitations or any recommended solutions?
    Additionally, what would be the best settings you would recommend for filming interiors of real estate properties? Any tips for achieving the best quality footage indoors?
    Thanks for your help!

    • @DimmyV
      @DimmyV  2 месяца назад +1

      There’s no HorizonSteady only RockSteady. Check out my video modes video as I cover when you can turn it off and use gyroflow instead.
      As for filming indoors do several passes with slight adjustments to settings then you can pick the best one.

    Obviously the whoop reacted better indoors in low light because the filming and flight are autonomous. The Avata2 is for beginners to learn fpv not to compete with ciniwhoops. Comparing apples to oranges in some ways.
    It's nice to see that the Avata2 can be used inside.
    Would beginner mode sped up work for inside?

    Hello, Demetrios. Excellent comparaison. Looking at the two videos at the beginning of your footage, I prefer the right one. Can you set the Avata 2 to record H.265, when @ 4K/60, 16:9, UW, Rocksteady?? Because there seems to be only an H.264 recording, which is very slow to render. If you can set it at H.265, how do you do it?

      I used the stock settings for manual mode and adjust my flying according to it. This is a good idea to start before adjusting settings to improve flying. However if you find it too responsive I would reduce the rate gradually until you find a sweet spot. I haven’t got a preference yet. Something I can look into for a future video. 🍻

      This is how I knew which was which very quick. The Avata 2 is more precise and stable, but it feels off. Very sort of mechanical like and twitchy. The other was far less precise but that sort of soft floatiness, I think adds character, and some cinematic charm.
      Also, my avata freaks out in low light. I've had it started drifting, and then move wrong when I tried to recover, and it bumped into a wall and then tried to take off full Throttle and got stuck to the ceiling. Just flying through a small section of a dark hall.
      I suppose with practice and controls, you can get the look you want, but the low light is kind of the Achilles heel, and the low light noise is pretty bad.
      Had to beat the battery life, ease of use, and reliability of the avata 2, though. I think that stuff makes up for the shortcomings, plus you can use it for other stuff and fly around outside for fun.
      But, I mean, obviously a specialized tool is going to perform better in it's specialty, if you always wanna have the best tool for every single job.
