From what I've read so far about how the Goggles 2 fit non-Asian customers, the Goggles 2 "foam insert" sounds like a mandatory accessory for people who have non-Asian skull types. I'm one of those people and I resent having to pay a ~$25USD race-based surcharge caused by DJI's uncaring...

I was tempted by the DJI FPV, but after much homework I realized it was too much for me as an ignorant newbie. I didn't know where else to start, so I stayed away from FPV until I saw the Avata. My order was placed about half an hour after I first saw the announcement email.

Hello and welcome!

I'm new to drones and FPVs. The Avata looks like a good FPV starter and I think I'm falling for it. Beyond that, I'd like to try indoor flying in obstructed, limited spaces with really small drones. At this point, I don't even know what size drones are right for that or what brands are the...
