      @@DroneFilmGuide hey. I meant for the Dji fpv. I’ve just got a camera mount for it finally, and am in manual majority of the time, but I wondered what angle to put the action cam at if flying in sports mode and the gimbal is taking charge. I know it flies at a bit of an angle, but just dunno how much it’ll compensate so dunno where to point my action cam.
      I’ve just got the small rig accessories kit for the fpv, and got the action 3 so should be good once I get a bit of decent weather in between all this rain and gales!

    • @DroneFilmGuide
      @DroneFilmGuide  Před rokem

      I just guessed to be honest - tilted the drone forwards and then centred the GoPro. I was shooting in 4x3 mode because the footage was going into Gyroflow for post-production stabilisation afterwards so that gives a bit of latitude to shift the video up/down if your camera tilt is not quite right.

    • @h-dawg969
      @h-dawg969 Před rokem

      @@DroneFilmGuide sweet. Is gyroflow a free software? I no nothing about it but it seems like the best option as you’ll hear about it all the time. So long as it’s not a monthly thing like Adobe!
      Have you done a tutorial on it before? It’ll be ideal for action cam footage of all kinds not just fpv.

    I was getting this footage 4 years ago on a regular FPV drone i built myself - why the grief of trying to do it with DJI gear? Don't get me wrong, I am eagerly awaiting DJI to crack the FPV/Cinematic scene but they are way off yet.

    • @DroneFilmGuide
      @DroneFilmGuide  Před rokem +5

      True, true. But the words "I built myself" just wipes out 99% of the potential drone buying market because it's a huge barrier to entry for folks who just want to dabble. The Avata + motion controller is brilliant for that 99% of us (myself included).

    • @clarkjames1510
      @clarkjames1510 Před rokem +2

      what do you think they need to do differently? I agree they're not perfect, but I think a mk2 DJI FPV with the camera from the avata and a beefed up carbon fibre body would be the dream. I started out on the DJI FPV, then bought a nazgul 5 6s, a cinewhoop and a flywoo explorer, then actually ended up going back to the DJI FPV for anything cinematic/long range, the flywoo is smaller/quieter and can take a decent crash, the nazgul is for when crashing is expected (bando flying), and the cinewhoop is in bits since it blew up. I actually really like the DJI FPV with an action 2 on top, admittedly the DJI's image quality is not great for recording but it's a great FPV camera, the avata seems to fix that with better image quality and gyroflow compatibility. There's things I like about the DJI FPV, there's things I like about the home builds, I think the avata is tempting but i'm unsure about it

      Your analogy is like „why do you pick a family wagon when you can drive a pick up truck getting from point A to point B?“. It all depends on the use case! Both systems have their advantages and disadvantages. I fly with custom 2.5 and 5 inch drones and the DJI Avata. DJI has nailed it to get people into FPV without the hassle of building & repairing and battery management! I love the DJI Avata for travelling because of it‘s small foot print and the hassle free experience while travelling not having time to charge and discharge every time.

  • @MrSlowestD16
    @MrSlowestD16 Před rokem

    I still think it's a bummer that you can't go the advertised speed out of the box.. You essentially gotta spend an additional $200 to "unlock" the advertised speed. It'd be nice if you could do 60mph with the motion controller, even if it was a setting in the goggles that defaulted to 30mph, and you could increase to 40, 50, or 60, or something of that nature. I mean my mavic mini 2 peaks 35mph ffs, that's not really impressive 😕. I realize it's very different in FPV, but still annoying. If I'm spending almost 1k on an FPV drone, I want to be able to go faster than the basic deal I have now, and I essentially can't with this unless I buy the controller.
