I feel sorta like you do about the motion controller vs. fpv stick controller. I think if you want to retain more controllability, stable flight and get good cinematic footage...the FPV controller is the way to go. If you'd like to just perform some rudimentary dives, turns and Star Wars moves, the motion controller is a GO! BUT, make sure you make TIE fighter noises at least 60% of the flight when using the motion controller or you're grounded for 36 hours!
Nice flying...😊 Did you adjust the tension on your dji fpv remote for flying in normal and sport mode?I know its needed for manual mode but should not be needed in normal /sport I guess?
I might, if there's enough interest. I just used FPV Skydive. Not super accurate at least for the Avata, but I used it because it was a 2 GB download instead 14 GB for Liftoff and I don't have a super great Internet connection. I also did a little in the DJI virtual flight sim on my phone. For the Skydive sim I used my RCN1 with a python script to use it as a controller until I got the DJI FPV remote with the Avata and then I just used that which works as a controller without any fancy stuff. I couldn't get the goggles 3 to connect to the DJI virtual flight app, and I didn't try with the computer either. You can definitely get good practice without it though!
Haha mostly because I've flown camera drones a huge amount. Flying in manual mode in the sim was actually confusing a bit at first because the controls work differently to sport/normal mode.
That's awesome! Sounds like you've been doing this stuff for a minute. 😅 Seems like most experienced drone/rc pilots like the regular controller better. Going to be posting a video of my first manual flight in the next few days.
I've tried several, but right now my favorite is CurryKitten. I've heard Liftoff is really good too, but it's a 14GB download which my Internet isn't quite up to haha
I am thinking of getting one - looks so much fun Though what is that filter like that it gets applied to video of drone recording? 3:32 as example. Also, does it tell you when drone is getting our of reason so you know you need to turn and not go any more forward to end up losing signal and your drone?
It's a ton of fun, I'm sure you'll enjoy it. The "filter" is color grading. I've got a video coming soon showing exactly how I graded the footage in this video so make sure to keep an eye out for that. When the drone is getting close to losing signal it puts an orange then red border around the screen in the goggles. You can see it where I turn around after flying down the road.
@@lukapavlesic7610 I did it in post in Davinci Resolve. I set the drone to D-LOG and then adjust the colors in post which gives a lot better results than just using the normal color profile in the drone.
@@flyingfilmmaker I understand but honestly don't like it since you posted a drone review video and not your editing video... ^^ I watched it mostly for drone to see how it is working and this doesn't give me a real picture of drone since you did video editing and filtering in post.
Yeah it's not super quiet, definitely louder than say a Air 3, and a more annoying sound. But apparently a lot quieter than the Avata 1. Never flown that one though.
No, at least not yet. They might release update as far as I heard but still not sure. Released in 11 April so it will probably take some weeks until we see first firmware updates
Get the DJI Avata 2 here: amzn.to/4cXNElL (Use this link to support my channel.)

I'm going to watch a fun video
Avata 2 is a fun drone
Can you do a video on your simulator setup? What are you using for a controller, and can the goggles be connected somehow?

Wow, you're good on it,maybe cause you have already practice proximity flyng on fpv simulator?
Haha mostly because I've flown camera drones a huge amount. Flying in manual mode in the sim was actually confusing a bit at first because the controls work differently to sport/normal mode.
I am like you,I just started fpv.i like the regular controller.i am old school.i have been building rc planes since the 1980's.😁🇺🇸🤠.

What simulator do you use? This is my first FPV but I fly commercially everyday
I've tried several, but right now my favorite is CurryKitten. I've heard Liftoff is really good too, but it's a 14GB download which my Internet isn't quite up to haha
I had no idea liftoff was so large. Thanks for the video. I enjoyed it.
I didn't either until I tried to download it haha
What video software did you use to edit (making the colors pop)?
Davinci Resolve. Tutorial on it coming in a few days!!

@@flyingfilmmaker is that something that drone does by itself or you did that in post?

Sounds kind of loud?

Does it also work with dji fpv controller 2?
No, at least not yet. They might release update as far as I heard but still not sure. Released in 11 April so it will probably take some weeks until we see first firmware updates
Thanks for letting me know.
do some dives!
That's coming in the next video where I try out manual mode. 👍🔥
@@flyingfilmmaker can't wait!
first!
Damn😂
