    DJI Avata Raw flight video from this mornings flight

    This was shot on Rock Steady, No editing. Slight wobble from winds. Horizon steady would probably be a better choice next time. All Camera settings Auto, 4K/60, no filters. I'm really impressed with the Camera video quality. Also the turns were ascending and descending while using the gimbal...

    DJI Avata First few flights and impressions

    It was all Normal and Sport mode, no manual yet. I flew the DJI FPV in manual a few times but prefer N and S modes. Especially with this Avata it is great for flying a few feet above the ground in N or S mode and just needing the slightest adjustment of the left stick. I had no crashes then, but...

    DJI Avata First few flights and impressions

    I started flying the Mavic mini a few years ago, followed by the Mini 2. Last 2 years have been spent mostly flying the the DJI FPV Drone. The FPV drone is fantastic, extremely fast and exciting but I was hoping DJI would make a smaller Cinewhoop combatible with the existing goggles and...

    Questions as a DJI FPV user buying an Avata…

    Nice flying! Are you flying in sport mode or manual? If sport mode are you using the right stick to bank, or just the left stick only to turn? I have the FPV drone and love it but it certanly does not turn as quickly as the Avata and tends to over correct when leveling off after turns using both...

    Waiting for shipping

    I just went on the DJI Chat line to inquire about when my Avata will be shipped. I was informed it will ship 18 days after payment confirmation and should be received 2 to 3 days later. So that should mean it will be shipped next Tuesday and I should recevie it by Friday (September 16). I hate...

    Waiting for shipping

    Thanks for the reply. October, that is crazy! Cant imagine how long the wait might be for just the drone. Sure looking forward to flying it so should be worth the wait.

    Waiting for shipping

    I ordered the DJI Avata last Friday direct from DJI website after receiving an email that the drone was now in stock. I am still waiting for the drone to be shipped, just ordered the drone alone. Anyone else waiting? Wondering how long it will take to be shipped?

    Can the Goggles V2 be paired with both the DJI FPV drone and the DJI Avata?

    Thanks, kind of a bummer but doable. I have 2 RC controllers so at least I wont have to re-bind that

    Can the Goggles V2 be paired with both the DJI FPV drone and the DJI Avata?

    I ordered the Avata on Friday (drone only), still waiting for shipping. I have the DJI FPV drone already. Question: Can the Goggles V2 be paired to both the Avata and the DJI FPV drone? Or is it necesarry to re-pair the goggles each time switching between the 2 drones? In other words can the...

    Flyaway incident data mystery

    I've had 2 fly aways. The drone video from the goggles showing the last few seconds of flight can be helpful, but the GPS coordinates shown on the DJI Fly App after connecting the goggles to the phone are a far better way of finding your lost drone. The GPS coordinates will get you to within 10'...

    Question about choping sound?

    Thanks, It is near Red Rock Canyon which is 25 miles west of the Las Vegas Strip. It is W Charleston Blvd (also called Hwy 159). When you get to the entrance to Red Rock there is a small parking area on the south side of the highway for hikers, need to hike a mile or 2 up the hill for good...

    Question about choping sound?

    Yeah, fairly normal sounds for this drone. Mine sounds the same. When flying low to the ground and making small adjjustments on the stick those sounds happen
