Let’s protect this man and let him deliver more awesome videos for the rest of his life. Legend, he is.
I love this idea...
Protect him 😅😅😅😅 From who exactly, what a strange thing to say.
Great video as always David. Thanks!
Always wanted a drone, never had one, but I think imma go with this one, looks like its great for a first time buyer and beginner!
Oh this looks amazing! I think this one is great!
Of all the Avata videos I’ve watched, this is one of them!
Always enjoy your content. Keep it up!
Very cool video. It is raining Avata videos. Yours was the first on my list! Well done.
This looks like a great new drone, Thanks for sharing.
David been watching your entertaining videos for a long time now. We both laughed when you were about to fly the Avata 2 for the first time and had the quick start guide but said you’d check it as you got started. So typical of men - they just can’t wait to get started whereas women usually study the guide before! Carry on with the great videos, we love them. Selina & Tim, UK (subs)
Hahahaaa! New toys are too much fun to read much about them🤣 Lucky that rain came and forced me to go read it!
Looks great 👍
Thanks for showing you are awesome .
Does it maintain altitude if you release the trigger?
Thanks for the video, really helpful.
man I've been dying to get an avata - Iove your perspective from someone who flies GPS drones and how quickly you picked up the Avata. I'm struggling in the simulator right now. I really wanted to learn on the regular controller, but I'm thinking the motion controller might be the best way to learn FPV for me. Great video!
The motion controller was shockingly easy! I was sort of bummed that I didn't get the controller, but then I started flying and realized why. This thing is the beginner's cheat guide. Again though, to get fully into it and improve, I'll need to get a controller at some point!
Great video as always! One day I will get an avata….looks fun and I crash in the SIM too much lol 😂 Dude see you soon!!!!!
Good stuff, thanks
When learning manual on this, with the stick controller, keep a finger on the switch that puts up back into sport or normal mode. That way, should you loose it, hit the switch and recover.
Love that! I will absolutely be using the brake feature!
@@DavidManningvlog glad I could FINALLY give something back. God knows how much you have helped me over the years.
I can't wait to fly it. Order one 2 days ago, got bungle package with controller 3. with 2 yrs coverage. It like fly fighter jet, with jet controller stick. My old one is Mavic pro never crashed. Find bubby that has one and race that be cool.
It really does feel like that when you’re in the goggles dive bombing a cliff line!
What do you advice the rc3 stick or the normal controller?
Were you able to use this in heavy winds? I live on the east coast and wondering if this will hold up to strong ocean winds when flying around the beaches. I have a DJI platinum pro and it’s super stable when windy.
Was your timeline at 24fps and the drone shooting in 30 fps? Thanks for the great review!
How about the RID which is now required? Is it in the software or you got to buy a module? I would like to get one
Great video David! I didn’t know I needed this drone until I watched your video. First the Pocket3, now the Avata 2 - Subscribing to your channel is becoming expensive.
I learned real quick when buying my new unit. If you're willing to pay $1,000 dollars for this drone package, you should be willing to pay the extra $200 dollars. You get the 2 extra batteries and the external charge and this case as a bonus. It's totally worth the extra $200 bucks. I don't know anyone that wants just 1 freaking battery for their drone.
For almost any camera these days, three batteries is a must. DJI's combo kits are the best in the game!
Great Video !! I really appreciate your comment about 60 to 70 % of FVP results with the motion control and getting the 30% remaining will take much longer time with the controller.
I guess it will take about 10 hours in simulator + 10 hours in real FPV with controller. That´s a no brainer for a beginner and I did not hear anywhere else in youtube.
Only proble you do not remember you mentionned is that is not cheap. The combo you tested is $ 1,200. A lot for a beginner...
Totally agree that $1,200 is a lot for a beginner, but you definitely get what you pay for with this system. I've tried a couple other beginner style FPV drones and crashed and burned pretty quickly!
Cool video bro!
Please tell me, my Avata 2 doesn’t have Easy Acro mode on top, I looked in the settings, but still couldn’t find it
Let’s goooooo 🎉🎉🎉🎉
It's so much damn fun!
I'm in San Diego too.
How were you able to fly this without a phone conntected to the goggle (remote id)?
Keep those lenses out the sunlight
Which lenses? The goggle's lenses?
@DavidManningvlog yeah sun will burn the screen.
Seems like a great unit. Little pricey. Are there alternatives like this one cheaper?? I understand you can wear these goggles if you have a prescription. Thx
I'm definitely getting the Ava ta 2
One more question min 8:01 what type sunglasses are those I want to get me some of those can you send me the link to where can I buy them thanks bro
Good stuff!!
Could you tell me what the dimensions and weight of the combo box with the 3 batteries are?
I threw the box away already🤷♂️
Wait so the rc controller doesnt come with it? Ive seen videos of people flying it with an rc control. Im glad i saw someone using the motion control though
Is there any coupon or discount code to use for the purchase of DJI avata 2, please?
I wish!
Hi, thanks for some great videos, I'm considering buying my first drone but I'm not sure which one to buy, it stands between DJI Avata 2 or DJI mini 4 pro. which one do you recommend?
If I were you, I would go Mini 4 Pro. That drone goes everywhere with me and is always in my bag. The Avata 2 is a really fun drone to fly and I do love the footage, but for videos/photos the Mini 4 Pro is my go to!
@@DavidManningvlog Thanks, i will get the mini 4 pro next Friday
Since you have flown both the Avato and the Mini 4…which would you recommend? I know it’s probably comparing apples to oranges but I’ve been thinking of both…just have to sell my Mini 3 first.
Two different drones with different purposes. The Mini 4 Pro is an amazing CAMERA drone. It’s primary purpose to take cinematic video of the environment it is flying it… but it to record your environment / travels etc. The Avata 2 is a drone that is all about the experience of flying… the Googles and dynamics of an FPV put you “in” the drone and you get the enjoyment of feeling like you are flying… the video is bonus.
@@canyonblue737-8 thanks for that. I actually have the goggles with my mini 3. I haven’t used it yet because I’m not used to the motion controller yet but I will be practicing sometime soon.
For me, the Mini 4 Pro is the drone that I'll still get the most use out of for filming. Maybe once I'm a whole lot smoother with the Avata 2, I could use it for footage. Right now though it's mostly just for fun!
@@DavidManningvlog gotta have fun!
Best hair in the game!
Hahaha I'll take it!
Can the camera work independently from the flight controls?
I think if you enable head tracking it sort of can, but for the most part it seems to follow the angle of the drone's speed. Because it's your eyes while flying, you for sure want it to be looking where you're headed
@@DavidManningvlog thank you! So not a drone that can hover and capture video?
you need a license and transponders so govt can track the drone and the operator. And spotters to keep the drone within sight?
Costco rag. They're awesome!
I don't know what Costco rag means, but I do love Costco!🤣
@@DavidManningvlog I thought that yellow rag was from Costco. They sell them there in a huge package for like $17.00.
@@PDXAv8terhahahaa! Good eye!!! That is a Costco rag!🤣
Hi Dave 👋😄
Hi Abhijeet!!!
Great video!
Any idea why the frames stutter? Looks like a slow SD card to me but I’m not entirely certain!
Just CZcams's compression algorithm doing it's thing. No stutter on the actual footage👍
maybe a dumb question but can you use the remote controller in normal og sport mode or is it only in manual?
All modes. Remote controller can't be used together with the head tracking feature though. Maybe after a firmware upgrade from DJI? Head tracking wasn't mentioned in this video by the way.
@@aliveathome thanks :)
How is the noise on this? I know the first Avata was really noisey.
For sure quieter than the first Avata, but all FPV are pretty buzzy
At the start I was like YEEEEE, but then it changed…
I would rather get better at FPV, to reach that 100%
Great review though
The controller looks like it might be a bit problematic for us left handed people. Looks like some of the controls would be hard to reach and control.
I knew you were getting it! 😅😂
Hahaha it's so damn fun!
By looking the size of that bag, it'll be quite difficult to travel with it!
Nice, flying right over people lol.
I don't know what you're talking about officer...
What is the maximum speed?
Three modes are Normal at 18mph, Sport at 36mph, and Manual goes to 60mph🤯
phê
Is it not 145g ??
377g👍
What is the point of acro features? I fly planes, and the rolls, immelmans and split s maneuvers are known...
With drones, I just don't see the benefit
Pretty sure it's just for funsies!
Can I wear glasses under the goggle?
Can you buy this drone from me
U will addicted to fpv😂, next step to manual mode
I gotta get me one of those controllers🙌
for me the title reads: Watch this after you buy 😅
It’s a great drone, but I sold all of my drones, thanks to Remote ID and possible ban of DJI in USA! Thank you government for ending my hobby!
I'm very interested to see the future of drones in this country. I remember the Phantom good ole wild west days!
You'll still be able to fly them, just won't be able to import them anymore. Buy them while you can.
@@seanmerritt1336 Bill says they will get grounded, not able to fly at all, so your $1k drone will become a paper weight.
The drone is incredible but the image quality is so ass.
I hate that the solution is adding weight by strapping a GoPro to these things.
In DLog-M, it's pretty damn good! I think it beats a GoPro strapped to the top. All of this footage was in Standard mode
Fake.
What do you mean fake?
Is there a stick remote for this quad?
