    Loss of control after upgrade

    That's a great point. I do have the expo turned down on yaw compared to pitch and roll tuning. Think I'm currently 80/1200/.85 on the 2 axises, and probably 80/850/ .65 on yaw

    AVATA Asphalt Plant & Dogfight

    After many hours in simulators, it was a blast to fly this IRL. One thing the Sims don't have though, is avian cameos. Loved the surprise of these guys coming to play, and the footage when I dive eastward and you can see all of our shadows on the ground, showing the chase scene unfolding behind...

    Loss of control after upgrade

    I had to go to work, but when I get home I'll continue my quest for the.dat. For now though, could the simplest cause be that I didn't get that motor soldered well?

    Loss of control after upgrade

    From the day I switched from the motion controller to the RC. It's never affected the flight, and after the first 10 times I recalibrated and five minutes later it popped up again, I just started ignoring it

    Loss of control after upgrade

    Recurring stick error has been constant since I first started. I can land and calibrate 50 times and as soon as I take back off, the error returns

    Loss of control after upgrade

    I'm not finding a way to link the AirData report from inside the app. Trying to get flight logs moved over from DJI fly now

    Loss of control after upgrade

    Well I had low voltage at 2:08, the ESC overheated 4 seconds later. I guess I did something wrong in the soldering

    Loss of control after upgrade

    Oh yeah, I saw it. Could hear it clearly as well. My spotter said it looked crazy. In the video I attached, it starts at 2:01

    Loss of control after upgrade

    Loss of Control After Avata Upgrade Hello, everyone. I'm hoping for some input after my crash yesterday. I did the AxisFlying 3.5 frame and motor upgrade on the avata, and took it out yesterday for the first test flights. First one went fine. 10 minutes of slow cruising. Stayed in normal mode...

    Any Issues Showing Up Consistently With This Bird?

    Good point. Yes, you can disconnect after the ID, but now you've got a bird in the air, hovering, while you've got your goggles off, disconnecting cords and distracted about turning your phone screen off and setting it down somewhere safe. It's all doable, but a total pain in the ***. You...

    Any Issues Showing Up Consistently With This Bird?

    The flight times are double to triple what you'll find on any other FPV platform, and yes, you'll want extra batteries, because it's really fun to fly. You can find aftermarket foam kits for the goggles pretty cheap, so I wouldn't get hung up on that. Here's my synopsis of the common...

    DJI Avata ascend and descend speed

    Yeah the prop wash on decent is terrible. There's a frame upgrade available that takes you from 3 inch to 3.5, and 4 bolt motor mount pattern.
