    Wow! I never seen other CZcamsrs explaining this kind of thing, I really appreciate this video , it helps a lot of people to understand more how to fly a drone, hopefully other CZcamsrs can learn from you my brother, little steps like this can help a lot.
    Most of the CZcamsrs make videos just to make money, not to teach others.

    Manual mode really is a different beast. I can't recommend a simulator enough. There are some really great ones for under $20.
    Order the controller a few weeks before buying the package and spend 20 minutes a day in a sim. The tutorials are decent, but going into freestyle mode and following along with a learn to fly series on CZcams helped me learn much faster.

    Great explanation! Thanks for the great video! I wish DJI would allow adjusting the C2 levels in manual mode during flight. This feature could be useful when I suddenly want to fly slowly and quickly switch the gimbal to mid, or if I want to fly in reverse and switch the C2 to down. Hopefully, they will allow programming it to a specific position in the future.

    Great explanation. Thank you! But I'm not clear on something, if I just want to use the controller in Sport mode for a while, the controller still functions like a regular mini type one, correct? Meaning the spring tension is still there on the left stick? I have to manually remove that tension, no?

    @9adriano21 Před měsícem +3

    What simulator do you recommend to learn to fly the Avata 2, I’m using TRYP, and getting better, just not sure if it’s the best option for us Avata 2 owners

    • @brandon9689
      @brandon9689 Před měsícem +1

      Tryp definitely has much faster and snappier drones to choose from. It's definitely not accurate to flying an Avata 2.
      But learning to make it through races nice and steady without crashing will make sure you're more than ready to control the Avata.

    • @xavier_arthur
      @xavier_arthur  Před měsícem +1

      Any simulator that you're comfortable with will help!
      When you jump into the real deal, you take things slow, you will already know how to fly, you'll just be adjusting to the Drone and the rates

  • @xanderludeman4425
    @xanderludeman4425 Před měsícem +1

    What button is the arm button when in manual or do you have to take off in normal then switch

    • @brandon9689
      @brandon9689 Před 29 dny

      You need to have the throttle down and you double tap the start/stop button to arm motors. It's much safer and easier to just start in normal or sport, get to altitude and then toggle over. But you can take off from manual if you want.
      Again the throttle stick needs to be all the way down or it will not arm from a dead stop in manual. This is a standard safety feature across all FPV drones not just DJI.
      Make sure you really know what you're doing before you take off like this, It's a much greater risk to your drone. It's much more vulnerable to windy conditions, it's easy to accidentally bounce it off the ground and damage it.

    In mode 2, with the attitude turned on, my right stick when pushed forward (pitch down), stick pulled back(pitch up)... it's this normal in attitude enabled?? Or only when it's turned off....

    • @xavier_arthur
      @xavier_arthur  Před měsícem +1

      That's How it works with attitude on or off!
      If you're in manual mode it will only pitch, if you're normal or sports mode it will pitch and fly forward if you push forward on the right stick and so on and so forth.

      @@xavier_arthur I learned the hard way yesterday then! Hahaha because I'm used to inverting my sticks in the simulator. So now back to the drawing board and relearn my muscle memory the opposite. Didn't take me long ..
      But now I have to get used to it.
      There was a vid on someone tearing down their RC2 to move the magnets to invert their sticks because there was no option in the goggles and DJI didn't address this apparently for quite sometime.
      Luckily I only crashed on grass and no broken propellers.
      Perhaps mention this on your next video that the right stick is not inverted??

    I appreciate the low level information because you never know what someone knows or doesn't. However, I would venture to guess anyone flying will start in auto an wouldn't have tightened their thrust stick yet. They won't be wondering why it isn't off the ground being that the stick will be defaulted to the mid point. Anything down from there is down, up is up.
