I own the DJI FPV, so when the Avata 2 came out, I thought it would be another drone I'd skip as it was more than good enough. Well... you'll see I guess.

The avata 2 is the best road ever for newcomers. Start with the motion controller and headtracking. Fly from you balcony over your city, sometimes a full km in every direction! Make some nice aerials, you got a good 15 minutes to do so! Now you go home and plug it in to your computer and enjoy the 4K 60 fps. Then a week later you switch to the controller 3. Wow, this give me 10x the control. You start in normal mode, then sport mode. Before you know it you are racing around a school on a saturday, you can go behind so much and still have signal. You learn to move your angle 6 degrees up so you can race close to the ground. At 60 km/h in sport mode close to the ground it feels amazing. Everyday you go out now to fly fast as fuck in sport mode. At home you connect your controller 3 to your PC and you practise acro in the simulator. Uncrashed, liftoff or velocidrone. You also practice hitting that pauze button. You need that in muscle memory as it will safe you many crashes. You are bound to lose oriantation when you fly in acro, but the pauze button will safe you. Then after enough sim time you find a nice open field with soft grass and start flying in acro (manual) but with bank limits on and slightly lower rates. And finally the day will come the bank limits go off and you are zooming around in acro. Within a year you are ready to build and fly a racing quad or something freestyle. The avata 2 is destined to become a big gateway drug between having a drone that flies itself with a screen and actually becoming a angry insect zooming and buzzing and doing flips at 150 km/h.
HARD disagree; beginners should not fly drones off a balcony altogether, that's idiotic advice. You are putting something that can harm someone into the hands of someone who doesn't know what they're doing.
Avata 1 had the benefit of being sturdy for beginners to practice; the 2nd one is an expensive toy for entry-level professional work at best.
@@ThumpahFPV Avata 2 is quite durable.
People like you are a fuckin use
That's a pretty accurate storyline for most of us 👌😉
TLTR: "Makes FPV more accessible" is the best way to say it!
I just started flying my Avata 2 a couple weeks ago, it is my first ever FPV drone, or even the first drone I've had worth more than $100. I know it sounds silly, and I am practicing manual mode on a FPV sim called Liftoff with the DJI remote 3, but using the Motion controller is crazy easy! I can easily go from 35mph treetop surfing to slower tree dives where I can explore all of the gaps in the branches. Tight gaps are rather easy. I have some of the coolest footage of my family and local parks, footage you can only get with a drone. Getting registered with the FAA isn't all that fun, but super worth it. To someone who is used to Manual mode already, the motion controller would probably feel super limited considering I think the top speed in Manual is 65ish mph (35 in Sport Mode). But for a noob like me the motion controller is the easiest way to get the thrills of FPV without the anxiety off messing up your inputs.
Also it took a few days to figure out all of the software I needed, but GyroFlow for stabilization is the best! Make sure to turn off rocksteady, EIS should be off, and the camera should be set to wide mode ( not sure is ultra wide mode records the gyroscopic data that GyroFlow needs to stabilize.
I use Video Proc Blogger to edit color and clip and stitch video, as it is free like GryoFlow.
Optionally I use Video Proc converter AI ($45 for a lifetime key) mostly to convert videos to other formats depending on what I want to display the video on. Video Proc converter AI also has a different video stabilizer for regular hand recorder video if need be, as well as AI super resolution, and Frame Interpolation (using Ai to increase the frame rate of a video, I have not tried this yet, but it is there.)
I just want to say, great video. It's well done, but at the same time, you are genuine. I hope you keep that!
Thank you so much! ☺️ I always will
Insane Video! Loved it 😍. You have waaay to few followers for your content!
Thanks so much ☺️ I’m happy you enjoyed the video!
I got the avata and the controller 2 four months ago, was good for getting my feet wet. Next was the emax babyhawk 03, a month later was the Geprc mark 5 and a Action 4. Up next, a custom build. Loving FPV
Sounds sick! FPV is awesome
I still use my DJI FPV (Had it since day one) to do my R/C plane chase vids. I need 80mph+ and the adj on the fly cam angle helps a lot.
I got the Avata and now the Avata 2 for close in work. (Under 60mph) Also for teaching. I've taught my Grand Daughter at 6 and adults older. All flying for the first time.
I also have the first Mav and the Naz 6 and about 10 more much older ones.
I have a saying: "Get in where you fit in." I use the one that works in the place I need it to. I see too many commentors try to show it in lights that are basic user apples to pro user oranges.
Everything you said is only valid for pro user oranges.
Sick video! I never really had interest in getting into FPV, but I think if I was to, I would buy the Avata 2 for ease of use, space and battery life like you mentioned, or go the total opposite direction and build custom drones to fit an action camera. But I would not consider the original DJI FPV. Hi, I'm Gustavo, the cinematic, Mavic guy ahhahaha ❤
When I get the Avata 2 I’ll let you try it out bro 😎
@@Markchristiankc let’s go!! 💪🏽😎
I finally got to fly my avata 2 in manual mode today and I loved it, sure it isn’t as fast as some of my fpv drones, but it’s definitely easier and the vision in the goggles is so clear that I don’t really care that I’m not going as fast, because I feel confident flying fast close to the ground.
And with that you still get some epic shots too!
@@Markchristiankc , definitely do get some great shots flying low to the ground and with that low height it gives a different perspective of the speed that you’re flying at.
Any idea when they release a new DJI fpv2? That would be pretty cool!
I’d love if they did! But I think they’re likely going to stick with the Avata line as their main FPV drone
HI! I just signed up to the channel, I noticed that in the video when the DJI FPV flies with the action cam it makes a strange noise, the same thing happens to me, but I find many videos where the drone flies well without making strange noises, could you tell me any suggestions or answers? A thousand thanks!!
Thanks for subscribing :D
To be honest I'm not totally sure what you're referring to sorry :( When I fly the FPV with the Ace Pro on top I don't notice any weird noises. And in the video there's only the sound of the drone flying but there's no audio from the actual Ace Pro clips from the fpv drone.
I’m glad the battery bank is attached to the head piece on the avata 2 because on the original fpv the extra cord dangling was a bit annoying for me at times, but is it a bit concerning with the battery bank being right behind the head now, what do you think ?
Although I only used it once I didn’t feel any warmth coming from the battery when I was wearing the headset. I’m pretty confident in DJI’s battery technology to feel comfortable wearing it on my head. Plus it is way more convenient than having that dangling wire. But I totally get your concern. I think it’s fine :)
@@Markchristiankc ok I’ll take your word for it, thanks for the reply 🙏
I fly with all 3 batteries I have and no issues for me at all. I also don’t get sweaty even when its hot outside, the goggles also have defogging option so the lenses don’t get foggy, image is very clear! The Avata 2 is insane
A defogging option? 😍 amazing
Got my avata2 just opening now doung unboxing 😅 video 😂 and then I will practice to fly ❤💪❤️🔥🦖😉
Enjoy! 😊
The nice thing is the fly more package comes with three batteries so thats 45 minutes to an hour ez.
Is gyroflow free ? is it compatible with the new IPad M4, Mac’ mini M1 and IPhone 15 pro
Yes Gyroflow is free for Mac and PC and there’s an app for the iPhone for it too. I’ve only ever used it on my pc though
Can avata 2 carry a full gopro or an insta360 x4?
Yep, either but the 360 seems to make it just a tad unstable.
It’s not something I’d try tbh.
It's not needed. Avata 2 camera is very good
Have you tried fly your DJI FPV with the newer goggles(integra, goggles 2)? The clarity is much better.
Ooh no I haven’t I didn’t realise the new ones connected. I’ll have to look into it thanks!
@@Markchristiankc the goggles 3 need a firmware update, but the integra & goggles 2 are insanely clear to me. If you have the chance you should to try it.
Coming from the FPV world, I am really enjoying the A2! The image quality is amazing! The image quality of the O3 system with the googles 2 is fantastic also . It really depends on what and where you are filming !. My tiny oddity XI20 is a 4s bundle of fun with the O3 on it! You can go places that even the Avata 2 wouldn't think of going, but the pilots skill level has to be much much much better! With all that said other than the lack of repairability of the A2, I am so totally enjoying the many cool features of the A2! First of all the battery life is crazy long.! I love the ability to switch from the motion controller with head tracking to the RC3 . Head tracking is such an amazing feature! It adds a whole new dynamic to FPV! Will that trickle down into our regular FPV drones one day!? I hope so!! Next, the ability to hit that brake button and chill out is really nice! One neat example, 3 of us were flying together. One buy had A2! We were chasing him which was pretty easy, but then. We lost him and couldn't find him to save our life! He kept laughing and said I'm hiding in a tree!. We were like WHATTTT!. Yes you can you the MC and maneuver into the tightest of spots and just sit there! That's amazing 😂😮
There are so many other things to talk about!
Lastly, I want to mention the portability of the A2 ! The entire flymore combo plus the RC3 all fit in the really nice , compact bag supplied ! I find that so attractive compared toy FPV backpack and 2 battery bags! One for charged and one for used batteries. So,. In conclusion, DJI knocked it out of the park with the A2!
By the way you have a new subscriber! Happy flying!!
the goggles 2 and goggles integra (actually smaller than the goggles 3) are compatible with the dji fpv
Oh sick! I should try this out 🙌🏻
@@Markchristiankc I know, it’s great, I was on the verge of selling my dji Fpv because I’d switched to the new goggles and then they made them compatible and I was like damm I did not expect that
You said "20 frames more then the avata 2" but in 4K the avata only goes up 60 fps. The highest framerate on the Avata 2 is 120 fps at 2.7K.
I made a mistake you’re 100% right. I realised where I got 4k100 from. I’d recently watched a Insta360 X4 video 😂🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️ MY BAD!! 😂🤦🏻♂️
3:37 scene from Something About Mary lol, sorry.
😂😂😂😂😂😂
I want that avatar 2 but I don't have a money to buy 😢
One day!
@@Markchristiankc I wish☺️
That is so bad flying on the controls, could do so much better with the MC what a mess
The manual stuff with the Avata 2 I wasn’t able to stabilise in post because there was no gyro data file - we made a mistake in the settings before filming.
Also I ain’t no pro drone pilot so 🤷🏻♂️😂
“I don’t know much about the Avata”, why are you even talking dude…..
He’s a drone expert and his main business involves using all sorts of drones for filmmaking. He just doesn’t use DJI FPV products (but he uses other DJI drones like mavics and the inspire 3). I felt his perspective to be of use to you guys as some of you may be in a similar field to him :)
