    Seriously considering Avata, but . . .

    Avata is a beautiful little machine and has some really fantastic features, but I really think I’d miss the ability to do flips, rolls and other FPV Combo maneuvers. I’m just now looking into the Avata, so my question for those that have one: 1- can it do flips and rolls? 2- will it have...

    Soft surfaces to learn/practice manual flight

    Fly at high altitude and keep the throttle low so the speed is slow. After a while you’ll get the feel. Like anything else the more you do it the more comfortable it gets. Flip to sport to take off and land. when you get to a high altitude flip to manual and immediately lower the throttle. If...

    Battery maintenance-what do you do?

    On my Phantom I have a charger that has a “storage “ mode which is pretty handy. Unfortunately one is not available for the combo.

    Battery maintenance-what do you do?

    Can I fly with the goggles off?

    I don’t think there’s an issue flying line of sight. The video tx shouldn’t care if there’s a receiver. Other’s more knowledgeable may say different.

    DJI Combo Manual Practice

    Wow! That was very good. A couple of times I braced for a crash. 🥵 glad it never came. I guess things look closer than they are or you’re just insane. 🤣 Thanks for the tip on keeping the note down. Nice flyin’

    DJI Combo Manual Practice

    I've been trying to practice in manual mode. I think it's called a split S, which I believe is cut throttle, flip, pitch up to dive, pitch more and throttle and pitch forward. I still am not too good at it but that's why I'm practicing. It's a nice move when perfected. One at a time I guess. :)

    Flight Practice with Dji FPV system, iFlight DC5 and Snail Motors

    Haha. Nice job with a surprise ending 😁 Glad nothing got hurt and good thing there was a hole in the fence. isn’t it a thrill when flips and rolls go right.
