The majority of this video was filmed at 23.98, which, when placed with the 60 fps footage from the Avata 2, causes a feeling of stuttering once and a while. The stutter is only true to this video, but not for the raw footage from the drone.

This is the kind of review anyone really needs. No (edit: not only ;) ) fancy scenery Shots and blabla, just well executed testing and reviewing from such an experienced guy! I really appreciate this kind of hard work behind the video! Thank you so much, best regars from Germany! - you deserve more views on this!
Well there are a couple fancy shots... 😆
@@NURKFPV I think you get what I wanna say... :D :D - So let me correct this: you did not travel to wuhulataysia and tried to let only those pretty shots carry your whole review like other channels are doing - you sir, delivered quality and valid information. Or like we Germans say: efficiency :)
while reading youre comment, i am watching the first couple seconds with beautifull scenery shots :)
YEAH- what HE said.
"Train! ..If u know u know"
Lols 😂
Fine. 🙂
Gosh darn it!!!
We know 😂
That's when I became a fan! 🤩
New drone pilot here, can someone fill me in
@@TheOriginalTXTikifirstly, since ur new to FPV, don’t fly near moving trains, especially these days. Just don’t. Nurk has the preeminent train video which stirred up some controversy back in the day. 😂
The train comment at the beginning got me 🤣
Truly an og
Probably the best overview of the Avata 2 I’ve seen. Really awesome to hear an actual FPV pilot’s thoughts on it. Great video man thank you.
So awesome Nurk to see you again! Hope all is well with you and the family! Great Avata 2 Video! Saw a lot of them today and yours killed it! Cheers!
Lots of people in the comments worried about CZcams bitrate. Here's a full, downloadable file of raw footie for you to pursue to your hearts content!

Seems like the link isn't working anymore
😍Wow, I have finally found the video that I was looking for! Unlike other videos that have unwanted content, this one provides an in-depth review of the new Avata 2 and includes all the necessary comparisons. I am extremely grateful to the creator of this video for making it so informative and helpful. Thank you so much for your time and effort!👏✌
😍😍
Dang - great video! That opening sequence!!!
I throughly enjoyed this video, I think I was having as much fun as you dudes. Really appreciate you putting it all together, definitely the best vid thus far on CZcams for the Avata 2. You’re a quality content creator, good onya. Absolute pleasure to watch!!!!!!! Thanks 🙏
Amazing that you tested Gyroflow. I know you followed the project from the beginning and it was such a good surprise to see it.
Thank you for doing this video! Waiting for the O4 Air unit.
Gyroflow is life
Very like how you detail the test! Many thanks!
Been following you since the early days and gotta say this is one of your best vids to date. It's obvious your passionate about your work and it shows in your vid's, thanks for making this content for all of us.
I appreciate that! This comment made my day!
Gracias, que chingon verte again!!!
Awesome review Nurk, i really enjoyed the mountain diving, great shots and great flying. I'm more of a walksnail Avatar guy but this Avata is really tempting me. Thank you for sharing.
Awesome video, thank you. The difference between this and RR's effort is stark.
One of the best A2 videos out there... well done!
Incredible review, thanks!!
Love your video format brotha keep on doing an amazing work ❤
This review gave me an amazing and actual footage of what to expect from the avata 2
Thank you so much
Glad you enjoyed it!
@@NURKFPV
I bought the avata 2 today.
Will start flying it soon
Thank you again
Got mine today. Already flew it and it's a blast!!
This was a thoroughly enjoyable watch, what a great video! Thank you! Subbed
This is the best of many Avata 2 review videos! Every fly more pack needs to include several barf bags!
and its always great to see another video pop up from nurk on my feed
Working on it
Great review, thx! Massively surprised by GoPro falling behind - it's got 10-bit and log too, have they been used?
Excellent video!!!... Excellent review!! 10/10
I’m pretty excited to take mine for a spin.
The best review of this thing ever.
Thank you!
❤I enjoyed watching and sharing this great video. Thank you.
So glad to see you looking healthy, I was worried about you a while back.... not that you know me or care what I think, but good to see you looking well!
:-)
Great review!
Amazing video, thanks for the info
Amazing review video, great format! 💪🏼
😍
I miss the FPV start up also. My daughter loved it!!!
Great review, very intuitive. What gain and expo rates are you using on the controller 3? I'm trying to play around with different rates.
Best review this far !
Cheers!
Great review Nurk.❤
I love your Drone support van. My buddies are currently customizing a Drone Support Van. complete with my Sound System. no computers on board yet, but I may bring it to the table !!! Thanks for your great review !
Dude it's a game changer for filming, CZcams and everything
Just got mine yesterday! Just waiting on the rain to go away!
Great video! Thanks for making it.
I'm looking for a long range fpv platform that creates a great flying immersion and makes you feel like you're flying.
What's the fov in the goggles like?
Would you say the avata 2 is the best rtf quad that can immerse you into a sense of flying?
Or does it feel like you're watching a TV from a distance displaying the fpv feed of a quad you are controlling?
The joy stick controller with the head tracking on seems like it may be what those seeking immersion want as it seems to make the view look more like you're flying a plane than a quad, where you look in the direction of flight where with drones and fixed cameras this is not always the case.
I hope that made sense and appreciate any feedback and help. Thank you 🙏
Excellent review!
Can you do a freestyle test video? See how it handles some crazy flying?
Thanks Nurk. Are these still blurry on the edges like the Goggles 2? Goggles 1 were super crisp, 2 a huge letdown with focus on the edges. Are these any better?
I just ordered one, should be here in a week. Have ONLY flown my 2 Mini 3s, and Mini 4 Pro, so this certainly be a FIRST FPV step out on faith! Gonna find some simulation first if I can. Many are surprised that I’m into all this at 68 years old , but what, shall I watch the grass grow or somethin’!? I think not. Thanks for the post, the guys helped my confidence! Thanks!
Loved this video!!! I am already really into photography and am looking into getting into ariel photography, thinking the Avata 2 might be a good first option...
I just got one. Still waiting for controller 3 which is a shame annoying comparability issues but it’s just such a good drone. Especially since it comes ready to fly out the box I’m very impressed
Are you able to use a different controller like a radiomaster boxer or do you have to use the dji controller 3?
Damn nurk i really miss your weekly videos! You helped me get into FPV and gave me the know how to do this hobby I've grown to never give up on. Keep flying just stay away from trains
Thank you for testing manual, I haven't seen anybody post anything on it yet. What would you say is the top speed in manual.
great video
Hi, at 20:46, was the Gopro 12 in "flat"? It looks saturated and different than the flat on my Gopro 11 for example. Thanks!
Great review got mine coming tomorrow
Enjoy it
Everything but dvr from the new goggles or talk more about pass-through. Do the goggles have a GPS so your location is sent off?
Can't deny that DJI makes some seriously thought out stuff. If I only could use my own controller with the Avata 2, I would buy it in a second.
I don't know if my input is worth anything but this review coming from a professional kwad pilot and videographer means a lot because we expect good honest reviews by people like you whether it's a good or bad review depends on it's success and this review sold it for me, thanks for being a trusty form of advice.
The video looks smooth and brilliant, can’t fault that video, this is now my new obsession. Darn it I now have to sell my original avata, just so I can afford this one.
Great review,thanks!
Thanks!
I thought I was seeing things but near the beginning it looked like you were flying at Falls Park just so strange to see a video on youtube near where I live
The avata was how it all started for me, unfortunately I have graduated to 5" quads so there is no going back for me. But Im excited to think how many ppl will take the same journey I did with FPV.
Looks awesome!
It does!
😀 amazing work man!
Great review, Nurk. The train 🤭. Are the goggles already backwards compatible with the 03? Wasn't aware of that, but stoked if that's the case!
Does the fly more combo come with the motion controller, goggles, and the pro controller?
i have the mini 4 pro and I have yet to see a review using the goggles 3 with the mini 4 pro. Will the RC2 remote work with the goggles and mini 4 pro altogether?
Great to see different kind of footage, but some details are missing. Would've loved to see DVR, penetration test (2.4Ghz!), and that GoPro comparison was not flat was it?
Hi, what did you do to fix the video shakiness, and did you change the rates?
Could you test if the old propwash issue is still on avata 2?
what you think about the funky faceplate seal? its not foam . what is it like thin rubber? i feel like it would make me sweat even more
10 bit color was a bonus. I saw Best Buy had them in stock :) snagged on and its charging.
Lol @ the epic cinematic post crash fly through. Bravo
How are you getting those rear shots while still maneuvering forward?
So with the head tracking will the drone do a 180° turn if you made the whole turn or only right and left? Can you test that out
Hey Nurk FPV,
is the tumble problem solved with the avata 2 drone ?
I know ya guys aren't fans of the motion control. Flying with it and head tracking is just wild. The hand controls is intuitive from too many hours of flying aircraft sims except the drone is so much more capable than a fixed wing It is a great immersive flight experience. It's what I imagined flying was like as a little kid. Just fun.
Which controller did you use in most of the recording for this video?
Could you show you stick inputs when flying, just getting my avata today, waiting for the controller to come into stock and am going to do lots of sim work before I try the fpv controller on the real thing, would you say the DJI sim is ok or should I use another? Ta
Awesome review Paul . Lets go 🫶👊🏻🚀
Cheers!
Flying 5cm above the water you used acro or angle mode? Thanks
One of if not the best reviews on the Avata 2 I've seen yet! We'll done brother, the avata 1 was a pig, going from my 5 inch to that thing was bad. I hope the 2 feels more similar if that's possible. Il find out Thursday 🤘 btw so ur the train guy! 😮 that was badass tho lol.
Can you use head tracking while using the regular controller (non motion controller)?
So when the quad breaks can we fix it or will DJI not be "selling" parts ?
Backwards compatibility to earlier cameras like the Vista and even the first gen DJI should be easy for them to do but knowing their track record they probably won't do it.
great review and video. I bought that frkn kit bc Nurk said it's backward compatible with the O3 but realized it's not after getting the whole kit.
I said they said it will be
@@NURKFPV didnt you say it is backwards compatible at 06:03?
@@intenzlife ah crap my editor changed my wording. Was supposed to be "will be" according to all the docs I got. When the goggles 2 came out it was within a couple months that the new firmware dropped
@@NURKFPV yea, let's pray that this will happen! Keep pushing sir!
are the goggles 3 compatible with o3 , your the first to say that ??
not compatible, hopefully soon dji release firmware to comply with o3
I bought that frkn kit bc Nurk said it's backward compatible but realized it's not.
gave dji my money right away. great review 💯
Enjoy it
What mbps do you export your vids at? The trees and foliage at 18:33 looks so pixelated and "muddy" and also kinda too sharp, the thing that plagued DJI cameras forever.
Very cool review!! Thx!!
@NURKFPV Awesome, Nurk!! Looks like you and the crew had lots of fun!! Cool following of the plane too!! Funny how the plane crashed but the Avata 2 kept going LOL
Great review, thanks for sharing
Are you sure that the goggles 3 work with the air unit 03? I called dji support and they said it doesn’t work. I just got the avata 2 package but I wanted to see if I can get some freestyle drones and use these goggles. Great video by the way, and thanks for the help!
Good review, I ordered one through your link, hope you get the credit.
Excellent Avata 2 review, Nurk. What's your impression that the RC FPV 3 is missing the 5.8 GHz, is it problematic?
Was GoPro 12 shot on gopro log? It looked like it was standard or vibrant colour? Would love to see side by side while grading
I just want you to know I watched the transition effect at 24:14 like five times. lol
Thanks for this awesome review. Answered everything I wanted to know. I'm getting all my Avata stuff together for a photoshoot to list it and offset buying the 2.
Will Avata 2 be compatible with DJI Googlesv2 and the DJI FPV remote control?
What a fun video. I think you sold me Nurk. Gonna get the fly more package.
Nice to see it fly loads better than the first version !
Just getting better and better
Yeah those battery stats are way off the advertised ones. Still would be good to see a long range test with rth. What are the specs on the goggles screens can we expect 1080p live steam max again when we get our O4 air units?
I know there was an issues with the Avata 1 where the drone would divebomb out of nowhere - any reports or personal instances of that happening with the 2? Thanks for the review!
Hey Nurk, are these goggles still blurry on the edges like the 2? I could never get crisp image on the 2 compared to the 1 or my old Fat Sharks. Are these any better?
Not that I noticed. I found that I had a pretty good time getting everything in focus for each eye, but I didn't have problems with that on previous versions.
Does it have the same yaw tumble problem that the DJI Avata 1 had?
Great video, just purchased. Another review said the Googles 3 weren't backwards compatible with O3 air units, hoping they are as the Googles 2 tend to fog up a lot.
Not yet. They will be according to my contacts.
i love flying with nd filters, immerse feeling
Feels like sunset all day erry day
Welcome to the DJI world Nurk. I bought a Mavic Air for photography in 2019 and I was super happy with it. Decided to build an equivalent and after 3 years of experiments I admitted I couldn't make something a fraction as good. Just wish the Avata 2 was around then. Cheers mate, I like your work. 🦘
