I dont know about others but one of the things I love about the avata is the screaming noise coming out of it. Its so satisfying

Really is delightful, I hope the avata 2 is even screechier! 😂😂😂

Thanks for the update Pav. I haven't yet made the jump to FPV but a drone with all the safety features and progression from sport to full manual and durability is an enticing proposition. It would suitable for me being a newbie to FPV and wanting to achieve cinematic flights. It will be interesting to see how the upgrades pan out. Hearing good things about the kit regarding power and reduced noise levels.

@pavguliani 7 ай бұрын

No worries my friend. Yeh it's exactly that tbh a great entry into getting fpv shots and durability of it will be important for you as probs you will crash a few times in the beginning. That will make a video on the upgrade as soon as I'm able to 👍

Id highly recommend this drone. I have the Motion 2 controller and it's a blast to just cruise around. Easy enough that everyone I've let try can fly it with no problem.

@pavguliani 6 ай бұрын

Yeh exactly. I've never actually tried the motion controller but would like to give it a go one day for the ease of use.

I did the Axis Flying upgrade/update/whatever for someone, but he hasn't tested it yet. Beefy as all hell for sure, but I assume the bigger motors and props take care of that. I've had my Aavata since October 2022 and still love it. I haven't done the RID firmware update at all, so I don't need a phone connected. I don't do FPV with mine, as I have my own freestyle quads for that.

Oh cool, yeh goes to 3.5 inch with the upgrade and flies better by all accounts. Not sure it's worth it now with the release of the avata 2. Thanks for watching

Great video Pav ! Avata is a nice drone for flying on an empty field with not much winds but... I'm going to sell it as it really failed me on my last adventure to the Canary Islands, where I wouldn't be able to fly more often than not 😅 Sticing with FPV + GoPro Very well put together video 👏

@pavguliani 6 ай бұрын

Thanks for watching mate. Nah the avata for me has been for my indoor flights and flying in tight spaces, it's amazing for gaps. I agree with you tho it's not good for windy conditions. The DJI fpv for me would just be such a pain to carry around for travelling, too big and bulky. You'd be better off with a 5 inch drone which is much more portable and fly's really well in windy conditions 👍👌

Heard that the 2nd avata will be coming out soon but I don't know when, you could always get this avata and then sell and buy the avata 2 in a few months but depends how patient you are

Very nice! I am looking forward to the Axis Flying Kit bc I am deciding wether I should buy it or not. It would cover the bad features like no power and noise but I have seen that the prop guards will get in your view. So please try it if it is worth it or not!

@frogsoda 7 ай бұрын

Two Avata batteries with a charger cost $280. I bought four batteries for my Mobula8 for $25. I paid about $400 for the drone (analog), a set of fat shark goggles and a Radiomaster Pocket. Everything new. If I spent $280, I could get 44 batteries. I can buy a DJI 03 Air unit for about $260. Even if I bought 44 batteries and the Air unit for this drone I would still be in it for about $950.

Which version of gopro would you compare to the dji HD camera, and which would you compare to the dji 03 camera

@pavguliani 7 ай бұрын

The DJI hd camera is not great at all so it would be a very early version like GoPro 4 or 5 but the o3 camera is definitely comparable to a hero 7 or maybe 8 so it's good but it's just more about tte lack of detail in the shadows of the o3 camera that I'm not a fan of

@MarcusFPV 6 ай бұрын

How confident would you feel with it over water? In terms of the yaw tumble. Trying to chase my brothers boat and get some cool fishing shots. I do it with my regular quad but I’ve lacked confidence in flying the avata over water because of that issue you mentioned.

@pavguliani 6 ай бұрын

Yeh I think I'd be pretty confident with it over water personally. Like I said not sure if it's the firmware update but I've been freestyling with it and it doesn't tumble anymore even trying to yaw as quickly as I can to try and make it tumble and it wouldn't like before.

How about buying instead of waiting for the next iteration? DJI is not fulfilling any more combos from now on and will sell only product in-stock.

@pavguliani 6 ай бұрын

I'd say it's still worth buying especially if it's your first fpv drone. Can't go wrong. And if a new version comes out then sell this one and upgrade depending on if you feel like you want the new one, the upgrade may not be significant enough
