DJI AVATA 2 | It Shouldn't Be This Much FUN!!

First flight and first impressions of the DJI Avata 2. Our first foray into FPV drone flight, where we find out how easy it is for fly an FPV drone.
It's Generation X vs Generation Z! - Can an experienced camera drone pilot fly FPV better than his son? - an experienced gamer who had never flown any type of drone before in his life?
(It wasn't that serious, but we had a blimmin good time!)
Watch us blatt this thing about and having a blast! Stick around to the end to hear our thoughts on whether this drone might be right for you!
Spoiler Alert : It's the most fun you can have with your pants on! 🤣

Buddy, I have to be honest, Traquin totally schooled you in the piloting. Those low passes were amazing! 🤣🤣 My heart almost jumped out of my mouth in some scenes. The better first impressions of DJI Avata 2.

[@amoktimeflies]

Yeh - picked it up straight away didn’t he! That’s what hours of PlayStation does I guess! 🖖

[@Vizeldrone]

Pure adrenaline! Amazing!🤛🤜👍🇵🇹

[@chriscapune7873]

Wow that is FAST!! 😅 so maneuverable!!! Really cool you can mirror it to your phone. Great fun!!!👏👏👏👍🐾🐈‍⬛🍻

[@amoktimeflies]

Yeh - its wicked fun! Thanks for watching Chris! 🖖

[@ericsanto3336]

Good shit bro

[@Image_7_Media]

I’m glad I was sitting down for that. I took mine out for the first time in the woods on Friday. Great fun swerving through the trees. Very immersive. I kept ducking when going through tight spaces. Love the ease of the motion controller. Can’t wait to see you using the remote controller.

[@amoktimeflies]

Me too! although I think I'm going to have to log a fair few hours on a sim before I venture out to do it in real life! Thanks for watching, Kevin! 🖖

[@Drone.vision]

Wow loved this mate, what a fantastic video, great fun! Looks so cool! Great flying from you both! lol forward to seeing more of these, keep them coming! Voice changer at the start was class haha 🤣!

[@amoktimeflies]

Thanks buddy - yeh - just thought that would be a bit of fun 😂 🖖

[@Drone.vision]

@@amoktimeflies it definitely was 🤣 great video mate, il look forward to your next one 👌 enjoy your week !

[@CreativeUnderground]

What are the odds that I would move half way across the world from Warminster 28 years ago, and happen upon your drone videos finding that you’re from Westbury!? Even the backing music reminds me of my old days in the ‘Shire. Perhaps a little bit more Oscars than Reflections though 😂 Great stuff though. Keep up the great content!

[@amoktimeflies]

Amazing! Sometimes these weird coincidences happen! I was kindof aiming for more of a Psychic Pig vibe 😉Thanks for watching! 🖖

[@CreativeUnderground]

@@amoktimeflies Now you’re talking!! Psychic Pig in Trowbridge midweek and The Hub club in bath at the weekend were our go-to’s back in the day for alternative nightclubs. I also recall my old band playing at a pub in Trowbridge called Pee Wees. That was after we had really blown up after following our first show at the Westbury Labour Club 😆

[@amoktimeflies]

Peewee (legend! rip 😞) started it in his pub then it kindof migrated - I think it’s was first to ‘The Warehouse’ between his place and the Kings Arms and then to Flekkies (no wait - Cascades?) although I have to say my memory of that time is rather erm… ‘hazy’ shall we say 🤣 🖖

[@amoktimeflies]

Westbury Labour Club - Paragon?

[@CreativeUnderground]

@@amoktimeflies Yes!!

[@Geeksvana]

Love the obligatory 'brumm' noise when switching to sport mode 😂. Has to be done!

[@amoktimeflies]

Do you know, for all of the hours of editing that I did - I never once noticed that! 🤣 I'll have to watch again! Thanks for watching, Sean! 🖖

[@dauielim2399]

Impressive as always!

[@amoktimeflies]

Thank you! Cheers!🖖

[@stevereyes]

Looks awesome!

[@amoktimeflies]

It is! Thanks for watching! 🖖

[@dwkdrones]

Great video mate 👍

[@amoktimeflies]

Thanks buddy! Haven’t had a chance to watch it yet, but saw the thumbnail- hope your Mini 4 Pro is ok! 🖖

[@YOONGOON_FPV]

That's cool review ^^

[@amoktimeflies]

Thankyou - glad you liked it! 🖖

[@johnnymac26]

Brilliant footage great humour and well...he defo owned it the playstation generation has it lol or has been having secret lessons lol

[@amoktimeflies]

Thanks Johnny - yeh - he's a natural so I'll happily say that he took the win. But that doesn't matter to me - we had a brilliant Father/Son afternoon together and that's the most important outcome of the whole thing... Manual Flight will be the tester though! I've done about 3 hours on the sim and at the stage my brain is saying - how the f*** do people do this???!!! 😂😂😂 🖖

@@amoktimeflies my son was 14 when we created a lan game of quake needless to say i took the huff and swore i wouldn't play him again he's 33 today and still laughs about it

[@amoktimeflies]

😂Sounds very familiar!🖖

[@mjsubterra]

Hey Moki, does it work if you wear glases and have a mild astigmatism? In other words, is it 2D or 3D? Nice vid, thanks!l

[@amoktimeflies]

Thankyou - I have astigmatism and wear glasses. Using the 2x lenses which are provided, it’s perfect for me (thank goodness!) The drone view is 2d, but still very immersive. The pass through where you can see through the two cameras on the front of the goggles, can be set to 2d or 3D. Works ok for me, but tbh 2d in that view is sufficient. Thanks for watching! 🖖

[@mjsubterra]

@@amoktimeflies That is such a good explanation - thank you so much. I'll be putting my pennies aside for this little bird. Let's have more vids please. I'll sub on my other drone channel, meandremo. Oh, and sorry for the 'Moki' moniker.

[@amoktimeflies]

No problem - I answer to most things so feel free to call me ‘Moki’ if you like 😂 🖖

[@shaunthedrone]

Looks fun and some great tips - many thanks for sharing the info

[@amoktimeflies]

Thanks Shaun - a more succinct ‘Ups And Downs’ vid is also in the works… 🖖
