DJI Avata 2 - The BEST Tutorial for Beginners

[@Brundleslife]

I’ve watched like 100 Avata 2 videos on KZbin. Yours is the most informative and detailed I’ve seen. Thanks

[@CAPTAINDRONE798]

Wow, thanks!

[@pjhunton]

Your channel is responsible for my temporary poverty (in a good way, but not if you ask my wife). I got the Neo fly more, then the Neo Motion kit (addicted to this little drone) and now you have convinced me I need an Avata and most of the little FPV cine drones.........(puts on lottery and crosses fingers)

[@CAPTAINDRONE798]

Ha ha, there are many Wives who are hoping Santa brings me a lump of Coal. Enjoy the AVATA 2!

[@CAPTAINDRONE798]

Merci Bien!

[@PianoManPaul]

I'll have mine, the full 3-battery kit, in a week or two. Can't wait! You probably could have mentioned DJI's "Care Express" insurance options, I always get the 2-year, 4-replacement coverage (my Avata 1 has that still). This particular product, like its predecessor, is among the LEAST expensive DJI drones to replace if you happen to damage it, or camera system, or battery (compared to the Air series ... very inexpensive!) ... anyhow, thank you for your insightful Avata 2 features presentation here Steve.... happy flying!

[@jonnymoke]

Legit!! Thank you

[@solorider-2020]

pretty much the best video's!! i watch you for years now. thank you for sharing!!

[@CAPTAINDRONE798]

Thank you, I appreciate your support!

[@Yusmaidhar]

10:55 quick tip, you can actually make the drone look side to side with the motion controller by pressing lightly on the throttle, just enough that the circle shows up on the goggle. There is actually two steps when pressing down on the throttle, 1st is to let the pilot view 360 degrees, and the 2nd one when you actually press the throttle down to the max then the drone will fly to the indicated direction. I'm glad i found your video, I just bought my avata 2 a week ago... still learning 😊

[@CmdrWiggly]

Just got this drone myself, and this tutorial was very thorough and went through everything I had questions for, great work on this video!!

[@pianomans1]

Another great video Steve! I'm enjoying the Avata 2! It definitely has capabilities that regular FPV drones can't do. Ok , not impossible but very difficult to do. A simple example is if you need it to hover and video something. Kinda like your mini 4 pro was orbiting you during your video. That is another great drone! DJI is really pushing out great products! Thanks Steve ! Looking forward to your next videos on the Avata 2!

What USB charger did you get to speed up charging. I don't see a link to the USB charger Steve was using...

[@ukmonk]

Great video thank you! I LOVE my Avata 2! I normally fly with the RC3 in manual mode but actually I always take out my motion controller when I go out as sometimes its just nice to have a chilled flight!

Most advanced simple to fly ever made .. i recall the video earlier when you mentioned that this one going to be your choice to buy .. Super fun, that’s why 👏🏻👏🏻

[@andymontejo4334]

Thank you for another video that is spot with all the info you need and none of the unnecessary fluff. I am a cameraman and 107 pilot that is looking to try fpv. I have stayed away from DJI for many years because of the painful process of unlocking the geofencing in order to fly. Since the Avata 2 is mainly for fpv, does it have the same unlocking issues? Has DJI streamlined the unlocking process? This may be something you could include if you do an Avata 2 follow up video. Thanks again for the great content.

[@CAPTAINDRONE798]

It is identical to a MAVIC. Since it has a built in GPS it won’t let you fly in certain restricted areas.

[@brandon9689]

You think of everything Captain Drone. I was literally just typing out a question which you anwered at 27:00. If your stick is loose, do N/S modes work like angle mode on a regular quad? You have full throttle management and it will bounce off the ground if you don't manage it? Or does it just raise and lower like a normal gimbal drone?

[@CAPTAINDRONE798]

With the throttle stick loose It continues to function as per any MAVIC type drone in Normal & Sport Modes.

[@Raptor50aus]

Also I read the Goggles 3 manual and found it supports 2D and 3D movies with USB-C for audio. They are fantastic. 65W USB-C or above works great for charging.

[@youngsrcandstuffs83]

How do you adjust the gimbal angle with the Motion 3 so there more gorund in the view and less sky? Thanks for the vids.

[@CAPTAINDRONE798]

The dial on the motion controller adjusts the gimbal

[@hgodtx]

Cleaning the lens.... How delicate/tough is the camera structure? Like what kind of pressure/movement would break it? Like can I pinch it strongly with left fingers and wipe it with right hand? Heard stories of how people broke it doing such? Appreciate any advice!

[@CAPTAINDRONE798]

It is very durable

[@BeeBird_FPV]

I just got mine a few days ago. I'm curious about the "beginner mode" rates compared to the rates you set in the video for flying indoors. There does not seem to be a way to check them without taking it out of beginner mode, which I'm not ready to do. But whatever they are, it is very easy to fly around my very small home-office without getting into trouble. I've been flying a Cetus Pro (only in Normal mode) for about six weeks so maybe that helped, otherwise I'm very much a beginner. great video btw.

[@willrine8614]

Fun video ! 😃 Another home run from The Most Trusted Name in RC gear ! Thanks Cap !!

[@CAPTAINDRONE798]

Thanks again!

[@benvanmil6761]

Steve, would the head tracking feature be more useful as a directional input Vs just looking around and going straight where you aren't looking????

[@CAPTAINDRONE798]

Unfortunately no. The drone does not fly where you look.

[@usadroneflyer]

Purchased my Avata 2 10AM the day it came out and have 30 flights on it already (over 4 hours) and I love the updates. Great addition to my fleet: Mavic 3, Air 2S, Mini 3 Pro, 2 Avatas and now the 2). Love the Motion 3 but will get the Sticks eventually! Thanks for sharing. Like #1K

[@DingleBerryschnapps]

😂

[@ukmonk]

If doing a real estate video, also make sure no light objects or papers etc on tables, also do a nice clean/tidy up first as dust/fur will fly everywhere, so maybe do a few test runs before the real deal!

[@nrnoble]

Nice video. I bought an Air 3 and it also does not come with a charger. And I also discovered it slowly charges when using inexpensive chargers. It took over 12 hours to charge three batteries. It was something that other demo channels did not point out. Overall, it is not big deal, mostly annoying to find out after the fact.

[@hummerzdca]

Man oh man! What a lot of information! I just got Avata 2 this week, haven’t unboxed yet until I can sit and watch more to help me get started. Flying my Mini 3 and Mini 4 Pro have been a lot, and looking forward to trying the goggles/motion controller with it first before the Avata 2 around the house. (Been too windy out anyway) Spoiled with the obstacles avoidance of the 4 Pro I guess. Thanks for the posts!🇺🇸

[@johnnycaps1]

Nice explanation with a focus on some of the pitfalls to avoid.

[@andyp.4205]

Thanks Steve. I feel its an upgrade from the A1. Hopefully, they make backwards compatibility with the Integra and the other FPV remote. If not I will most likely sell the Avata and get it anyway.

[@CAPTAINDRONE798]

DJI always adds backwards compatibility after they have sold enough of the new product.

[@frankc.9853]

I have a quick question... Does your Avata 2 video split into another clip after 3:30 mark or so? I shoot in 4K 60 and was told that it may be why this happens. Your thoughts?

[@CAPTAINDRONE798]

All DJI Drones create multiple clips if you exceed 3 to 5 min of video. It has been that way since 2013. The reason is because if you crash and the video is corrupted, you only lose the last 3 to 5 min of your flight video.

[@frankc.9853]

Thanks for responding! I never noticed that with my Mavic 3 Pro. Hmm I will have to check it out this week.

[@jarekgorak6627]

Very good tutorial. I fly AIR3, time to get new skills so I bought Avatar 2. Regards

[@hgodtx]

Wow! What a great full coverage video! Qn: if I have everything powered on and I want to switch to RC3, can I just turn off motion, then power up RC3? Or do I need to power cycle everything?

[@CAPTAINDRONE798]

Yes, it should work with items powered on

[@NBSTL68]

Is there no crash / obstacle avoidance on the Avata 2 at all? I am looking at this for a 1st drone bc it looks simple but assume without obstacle avoidance I'd crash and render it useless in no time as a newbie. How durable is this thing to handle crashes without repair?

[@CAPTAINDRONE798]

It is an FPV drone designed for beginners. All DJI drones are designed for beginners but their FPV class of beginner drones are built to handle newbies crashing them into the ground at all speeds, so you’ll be fine.

[@NBSTL68]

What do you advise for beginners motion controller or manual mode?

[@CAPTAINDRONE798]

The AVATA2 comes with the MOTION3 so that is what beginners will use. If a person was previously flying a DJI MINI or DJI MAVIC then they would prefer the REMOTE 3.

[@Purplebanana207]

@@CAPTAINDRONE798 thanks I previously flew a mavic air 2 really good drone

[@LandOverview]

Will it go into auto RTH when whipping around in manual, I tend to lose track of time and forget to monitor the battery at times, mostly I only got 5 to 6 min max on their FPV model and was lucky once when it came back overland as opposed the water when it suddenly did a forced landing on me, so just wondering if this one calculates it a bit better for auto RTH from manual to actually complete the RTH when your battery gets low. Anyway this bundle seemed good to me for the price especially as goggles are much smaller, not tried it yet but your video was a lot of help at least I found out how to start it if I use that motion stick thing , before I thought twisting it was for pan/rudder maybe and tilting it would be like ailerons and to do spins, although I think I will use the regular stick remote when it comes never used that motion stick thing even on their first FPV.

[@CAPTAINDRONE798]

Yes, RTH still works in MANUAL MODE because DJI designed this drone for beginners and will not allow you to turn off the GPS. So this is a good thing if you stop paying attention to the remaining battery voltage.

[@redmaxxnews2414]

Yo Captain Drone! You can use the dot with the motion controller to access and manipulate menu controls. That little bit of play in the trigger before you feel tension is how you select. Then just aim the dot off the menu and select again and the menu disappears… so like when you were selecting head tracking, you do it with the motion controller so you don’t have the aircraft spinning around

[@Emuspaul]

Thanks for showing the Gain Tuning for indoor flying. I was using Beginner Mode, which may have similar settings?

[@CAPTAINDRONE798]

Beginner mode settings are a bit different

[@GMWTravels]

Very good video, very useful. Can you use the RC2 with the Avata2 or do you have to buy the controller 3?

[@CAPTAINDRONE798]

DJI wants you to buy the Remote Controller 3, so they made certain to not make the Remote Controller 3 compatible…. At this time.

[@davdaya]

Awesome tutorial.. Steve!! Hopefully DJI will include Head Tracking with the remote 3.. that would be an Awesome way to do indoor real estate touring.. 👍

hello Mr. Captain Drone. thanx 4 the great review of avata 2. really useful. just want to ask, what is it there to recover u avata 2 from a fall.

[@CAPTAINDRONE798]

Mine has crashed only once as shown in the video.

[@SgtJamesRay]

if it's upside down try turtle mode in the menu. If it's sitting up try restart on the motors. If none of that works then you have to do what is known as "The walk of shame!" and go get it. lol

[@SharpROCKbarn]

Steve, great and informative info especially for beginners .. However, you did emphasize the ease for beginners and how quickly they could be doing real estate ... You probably know what i am going to say.. They can not do real estate until they are FAA 107 certified.. I hope you point this out in a future video... Otherwise a lot of people might think they can start a side business and they cannot... I am not a negative person but you did repeat the real estate angle many times and for the safety of those involved I wanted to drop you a note.. If I could have done so in private, i would have... Keep up the good work... Joe

Hi there new drone guy here, I recently bought both a Cletus X and avata 2, I thought that I would learn proper fpv and also have the avata so I enjoy flying while I learn proper fpv. Wonder if you suggest me to learn fpv on the Cletus or should I try sticking with the avata and return the Cletus? I want to get the physical reflexes and not sure if the avata is going to spoil me, WDYT?

[@CAPTAINDRONE798]

The Avata 2 has both NORMAL and SPORT Modes which are BEGINNER Flight modes. Those modes do not exist in the real FPV hobby. Nor does that silly motion controller. Depending on which CETUS you purchased, you may be stuck with BEGINNER Flight modes as well.

[@BradlyFackrell]

Great tutorial! Thank you!!

[@mannythehunter]

Great video as always. Not a fan of the motion controller. Why are we trying to pull away from a normal transmitter??

[@CAPTAINDRONE798]

Please explain your question as I do not understand what you are asking.

[@SgtJamesRay]

DJI is just giving more options for more pep to come get there stuff. If they can get everyone to try it the more sells they make. When I go to flying events it's the motion controller I teach to non drone flyers. They all love it. I teach the reg controller to anyone looking harder. I've only taught my Grand daughter the reg controller.

[@mannythehunter]

@CAPTAINDRONE798 I feel like dji is trying push their motion remote. You now don't get a choice. Your dji will come with the motion remote and if you want a "normal" remote you are stuck paying extra for one. Thanks for all your reviews as always!

Hey, great video thank you one question I had because I did speak to DJI about this as well in the new goggles. Are you also seeing it as a rectangular square? I’m guessing there is no way to put this in fullscreen or at least get to edge. I thought this was gonna be more immersive, but all I’m seeing in the goggles is a small rectangular image I guess, probably to avoid lag issues. I did set the field to 100% just wondering if there is any option for more of a full screen

Lol... My question was going to be "Do you have any videos showing the stick moves for the flips and drifts?" BUT I guess that's coming! Cool! I have the Avata 2 and tried it out the Remote 3 today, I need to find an open and empty space to get use to the Motion Controller though.

[@CAPTAINDRONE798]

Stick moves are simply the one joystick on the motion controller. Just move it in the direction of your desired drift or flip

[@frankc.9853]

Uhh sorry, I meant stick moves with the RC 3.

[@CAPTAINDRONE798]

@@frankc.9853Oh, you have to know how to fly in manual mode to do that. To flip forward, push the right joystick forward, etc.

[@randyevans6774]

A dumb question but anybody can answer it. Do you have to connect your cell phone to it every time because my cell phone charging port is screwed up and I can only charge it wirelessly but I do have other devices. I can hook up to it if it’s just needing to add firmware or whatever.

[@CAPTAINDRONE798]

It depends on where you live in the world. I believe for people in the USA you have to connect your phone for remote I’d purposes (I’m not sure if for such a purpose you can connect via Bluetooth vice using the port). I live in Canada and we currently have no remote ID requirements.

[@GatorRican]

Wait - I'm confused. Can I fly the A2 w/ the RC Motion Controller WITHOUT turning on the Goggles 3?

[@kayjet64]

In your videos when you use the google, you are sitting. Do you get nausea standing?

[@CAPTAINDRONE798]

Nope, not at all. Sitting is so much more comfortable when flying.

[@davelightfoot2913]

I put it in beginners mode to do indoor and slow flight with obstacles. That way you don’t need to mess with the tune.

I need help on the ole lenses and which ones I require for my eyes. My prescription is SPH -0.5 CYL -1.5 axis 100 for both eyes any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Do the ones that come with my fly more kit meet my requirements or will I need prescription lenses?

[@CAPTAINDRONE798]

Sorry, I’m not knowledgeable on eye sight prescriptions. All I can say is the goggles would probably be fine as additional minus prescription adapters are included.

[@P100KLE]

@@CAPTAINDRONE798 no worries thanks for the quick response. I will fire a message to live chat and see what they say.

Congrats for the fantastic tutorial!

Glad it was helpful!

I can't wait to get this drone. I've been practicing hard on my Analog Tinyhawk freestyle. Around 6-12 packs a day. Unless I'm trying something crazy, I usually don't crash anymore. If I'm gonna burn one of my DJI care refreshes, I want it to be for something good 😂

[@CAPTAINDRONE798]

If you can fly the Tinyhawk then this drone is even easier to fly.
