DJI Avata Horizon Steady - Capture Stabilized Video

[@SeanOzz]

Horizon lock; or steady, is really impressive in this thing. they were about a year later than I guessed with putting it into a drone but the future is here finally.

[@richardruckert7954]

Much needed video. Thanks for putting this together. Having Mavic like video and FPV ish video (no acrobatics - not cinnematic anyway) can really work the scene.

[@the4reys839]

I love this video but i was wondering if you could do a video comparing the dji fpv and the dji avata. I am trying to figure which one to buy.

[@donovanw.2943]

Thanks for the good info. I believe that you can hook a phone up to the Goggles 2 so that could work for a monitor if you're alone. My Avata is coming in the mail tomorrow, so i'll find out soon.

[@LWJCarroll]

Yes thats the type of flying I plan to be doing, really enjoyable! Thanks. Laurie. NZ.

[@hellohogo]

I really liked the footage. You shot with this in this video. Tell me, were you using ND filters at the time? Thanks.

[@RonaldBrown59]

I didn’t realize horizon steady made it look like it came from a camera drone. That’s interesting, and pretty impressive. Great video Shawn, and thanks for sharing.

[@davidwalker2402]

Great idea making it compatible with the RC controller 👏

[@philmtx3fr]

Hi your proposal of having the avata compatible with the RC for avoiding wearing the google is,very interesting. Hi DJI for one time can you hear your users ???

[@juicebox853]

Pretty impressive option. I have not been keeping up with drones, but the capabilities of this are interesting.

[@jimsdroneing]

great info footage looks great should have mine this week horizon steady nice feature

[@jonathanmellette8541]

I've got an original mini and an Air2S. I really want the Mini 3 Pro w/ the fancy controller just so I don't have to screw with my iPad when I want to make a quick flight. But, already having an Air2S, it's hard to justify when the Avata would be such a different experience. If the controller w/ the Mini Pro 3 would work with my Air 2S I'd probably just go for that. First world problems! Also, I live in Texas and it's been too hot to fly for the past three months, so I haven't done much anyway -- so, I probably need to get nothing. Still, I appreciate these kinds of videos!

[@rushrucker1785]

I had the original Mini as well and I have the Air 2s also. I liked the Mini because It could fly low and had no obstacle avoidance and it was a tough little drone. I sold the Mini because it was under powered and really affected by the wind. I want a different type drone like the Avata for close and indoor flying. The Mini 3 pro is a nice drone but it's small and it seems like duplication with the Air 2S. I'm going to wait a few months before I purchase the Avata or another Whoop.

@@rushrucker1785, idem !

[@dronelandingzone]

Great video! You did a great job of explaining the differences. Thank you!!

[@AirPhotography]

Glad it was helpful!

[@BuddBieber]

What do you think of the battery life?

[@madpuri]

More than enough, mine lasts 15-20mins no problem and wearing the goggles any-longer is not much fun anyway

[@mopt4011]

Sean, Hello Sean, What’s the most affordable digital 4k cinewhoop package for a beginner? Thank you

[@mattwruff]

Still waiting for mine I order the 'Drone Only' and it is still on backorder at B&H (I have the original FPV)

[@GeoffBrabecDronesTech]

Great video Shawn!👍

[@lynsmith1096]

Good video and shots

[@RaphaelLacoste]

excellent advices Thank you !

[@KeithFujiyoshi]

When fly Avata using DJI RC , can you use goggle at same time?

[@DaveMody]

What's a cinewhoop drone? I'm not sure what you mean by "like a cinewhoop drone"? What's different between a cinewoop and an FPV or a regular mini 2? Thanks!

[@PhillyDroneLife]

Omg bro at like 58sec Mark you flew the a tiny gap.. Hahaha. I loved it.. Hahaha. I can't wait to get mine.. Lol Mikey

[@newlegacytom8126]

Will this make your videos straight by any chance? Say for internal drone footage?

[@EngiTrek]

Might be a dumb question but can this drone go up side down and do barrel rolls and all the cool stuff like that?

[@AirPhotography]

Yes indeed if you put it into manual mode you have all full acro control

[@RJ2A81]

Do you set rth to hover when in the woods? In case you lose signal.

[@DronesRock]

As always .. Great info

[@tracilyn4838]

While the drone is moving forward, can a different camera angle be captured? For instance, Left, right, up, down ect.

[@LinoPR-ds2ke]

Is horizon steady the same thing as horizon lock

[@thecuriousnomad4712]

Another great video! Quick Question: I've seen several videos of people crashing and losing their Avatas and they are using the goggles video to try to find them, sometimes without success. The battery often pops out upon crashing so they state the "find My Drone" function on the DJI Fly App will not work to provide the GPS coordinates when connected to the goggles. I have not received my Avata yet, still waiting for shipping so I cannot test this theory. On the FPV drone the GPS coordinates do show up even if the drone powers off after the crash (I know because it has happend to me). Any thoughts on this? I always bring my connector cable to the field for the iPhone to be able to connect to the goggles just in case and it has saved me. Hope the Avata is the same.

[@kramdsm]

Thank you once again!

[@epicflow.mp4]

Great Video!

[@Unamatrix01]

Great video, I agree that the DJI should expand the compatibility of the Avata and the FPV Drone with the DJI RC and RC Pro transmitters respectively.DJI should follow the path of competition grade and hobby grade RC helicopter, airplanes, cars and boats allowing all their drones with Occusync 3.0 made compatible with the RC Pro and RC transmitters.

[@jesusgjchuza6491]

Nice 😎🤝

[@chitgoks]

question. can horizontal steady bbe used in normal mode? i try to use this at a high altitude but the view is tilted always. is this only good for low altitudes?

[@AirPhotography]

Yes it can. What you see in the goggles will still be tilting back-and-forth but the recorded video on the memory card in the Drone will be stabilized.

[@chitgoks]

@@AirPhotography it doesnt look that way. i checked in the sd card and its not stabilizd. still tilted. tried to jsut idle it in mid air and it doesnt straighten up. tho they say eis off and gyroflow will do the trick?

[@LinoPR-ds2ke]

You didn’t show how to activate horizontal steady

[@MrEddieNunez]

Great point, DJI should let users use the other RCs to fly this.

[@davidmendlovits6854]

Hi how are you just come in because I’m the first

[@naptimezzz1]

Thanks for the review! BTW, its”s FO-LEE-AGE, homie 😁 not FOIL-age ✌️

[@AirPhotography]

Haha indeed. I have some bad slang habits from where I was raised.

[@SouthBayFamily]

How to find horizon steady on the goggles

[@samuelcarlsson4932]

Good video👍 i would love to have a drone like that, but its very prizy

[@rui7773]

Se vocé vivesse no Brasil ia ver o que é caro de verdade!

[@hellohogo]

I’m honestly considering selling my Mavic 3 after ordering this

[@PhillyDroneLife]

I agree there Avata and they're fpv drone should both fly with a controller. Like the 12 hundred dollar rc pro. Just saying DJI .. yahoooooooooooooooo Mikey

[@Adept1780]

Plug you phone into the goggles and then you can pilot through that or your Ipad :)

[@productionmandan]

This whole video was on turning on horizon steady which I’m trying to figure out how to do and you DIDNT EVEN SHOW HOW TO TURN IT ON!!! Come on

[@bonviver8971]

Thanks for Not showing how you actually set the horizon steady!

[@DieselRamcharger]

the footage is so dark on this drone
