I'll upload a comparison video between the "Avata" and "Avata 2" this weekend! Make sure to subscribe 🚀 *EDIT* The comparison is online now: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qpDInJWtmL10hMk

[@dragonnst]

Ok

[@darylswalker]

Just what I need bro 👊

[@robmulally]

look forward to it

[@goofysurfista]

Looking forward. Also thank you for your video for beginner FPV, simulation, etc. Just wondering how to get to simulation for Mac users like me.

[@graviball]

Red doch wieder deutsch ich versteh kein Wort

[@loldoctor]

Imagine how happy a DJI engineer must feel seeing that recovery footage and your reaction. Hopefully, they see this video.

[@MedelFPV]

That was the luckiest, most-epic GPS recovery I've ever seen! hahah Amazing video man!

[@MatthiasDangl]

Thanks mate! Yeah I was so sure I've lost it hahah

[@madebymarcin]

This is the most crazy recovery I have ever seen from FPV!!!! I am happy you got it back! Great vid btw

[@tobiashpunkt9999]

Crazy recovery action by the Avata 2 when losing connection! Well done DJI! - And great review, thx for sharing! (broke ≠ breaked ;) )

[@MatthiasDangl]

Yess it was for sure! Hahah thanks, always learning

[@princesfpvdrones]

OMG!! Never expected that!

[@WeouTHereburH]

Damn so when it lost connection it was still hovering!? Would’ve it have fallen in the water if it lost connection?

[@terrancebrooke9431]

because it has gps​@@WeouTHereburH

[@WeouTHereburH]

@@terrancebrooke9431 nice! 👍🏽

[@bchatzakis]

duuuuude that save was for the books!!!!

[@riskybusiness5]

Many people don't know that it is standard protocol on mini 3/4 drones on loss of signal to take return path about 50ft to attempt to regain signal before initiating RTH. However, I never expected to see this behavior on an FPV drone when flying low to the ground let alone through a hole in a rock above water! WOW. Those new rear sensors are for stabilization when near ground and were definitely kicking in detecting the situation. Still amazing recovery that even DJI should be proud to witness.

[@MatthiasDangl]

So that must have been the reason why it went back through the hole, crazy!

[@riskybusiness5]

However, if you have your RTH set to hover in place, it would not do return path and and wait for you to move closer or land when battery dies. Also if you don't have your RTH height set high enough it could run into an obstacle upon return. Given that with FPV we fly in challenging environments, these are settings people may forget to think about before each flight.

[@MatthiasDangl]

@@riskybusiness5 True that

[@HideshiIzu]

That right there is why I got a DJI Avata when everyone was saying you should just get into “real” FPV

[@laStar972chuck]

Wow. Ngl, the fact that it went thru the narrow hole far away out of sight, out of connection ON ITS OWN. And then COME BACK HOME on its own, by going back THRU the narrow hole again...ON ITS OWN. That was straight up impressive and crazy on the device part. Im sincerely impressed !

[@creatingcovell6218]

This might be the most impressive thing I've ever seen a drone do while losing connection! WOW

[@Porculus]

WTF? That thing is definitely using next level optics and GPS to get back through that hole in the rock formation all by itself. Unreal! That feature alone makes it justifiable for FPV pilots who like to fly in high risk locations.

[@MatthiasDangl]

Absolutely! If it was one of my self-builts, I would've probably lost it

[@ixography]

Bro how lucky were you🤣the FPV Gods were with you that day hahaha

[@MatthiasDangl]

Agreed hahah!

[@theboydidgood]

Best, most useful review of this so far! Nobody covers the video quality so found this exactly what I was looking for. Nice work.

[@ambassadorsofthesea]

You're so lucky it didn't go to 50m when it was under the hole. What an awesome recovery!

[@JasonSturgess]

You just made me purchase one ! Looks so good and a massive improvement over the first edition !

[@MatthiasDangl]

Happy to hear that, you'll enjoy it!

[@hartin222]

frigg!!!! i had legit tears and goosebump when it turned around and casually went through the hole to come home!!! WHAT A REVIEW! SUBSCRIBED!

[@larryjones2563]

That was some epic video! So glad you didn’t lose the drone.

[@chadiwack]

THIS IS AN INSANE recovery. I'm so stoked you got it back.

[@GregorPQ]

Unbelievable. Congratulations, man, that is epic!

[@chadhelvey7827]

O to the M to the G! That recovery was absolutely insane! Then to see that it went back through... I was going nuts. We'll done bro! You just got a new subscriber.

[@MatthiasDangl]

Yes I couldn't believe it by myself hahah, thank you!

[@TheRoamingDroneLLC]

Wow. Super Impressed with the return to home. Love the new sd card slot location as well. Great Video!

[@daviduk2510]

Awesome!! That pass through the rocks and losing connection. Amazing! Some beautiful shots. Fortune favours the brave.

[@Rocksteady72a]

The drone was so committed to the shot that it completed it for you xD

[@Inspirewithdrones3342]

Wow! That last demonstration was priceless bro. I received mine yesterday. Haven’t flown it yet due to the weather, but this is very encouraging to know that DJI really invested in the technology of the Avata 2. Keep up the great work sir!

[@lacijunga]

What an acctual hell! I was cheering when i saw that return!

[@TechNicolas]

12:50 das ist das geilste was ich seit langem gesehen habe ... ich hab echt mit allem gerechnet, aber nicht das sie so agiert :D Perfekt

[@MatthiasDangl]

Ja oder! Ich war komplett überrascht hahah

[@EdEditz]

DUDE!!!! That was epic. I'm so happy to know the drone can get out of situations like that. I bought the fly more combo as soon as it came out. I knew this was the drone for me and it hasn't disappointed me yet :)

[@kimfry5997]

Great video. I love that you did not lose your drone great shot

[@exil3dlivecom]

One of the best avata 2 reviews! Shows the potential well

[@JetCooper3D]

Mind blown - time to order... Thank you!

[@0815ebm]

I hope you played the lottery right away with so much luck. Great video and really cool footage - what a crazy RTH 😱

[@methodvisual]

Thanks for sharing and for the epic shots. Lost connection and flying back through the hole was crazy.

[@MatthiasDangl]

Yes it was!

[@vernl3726]

amazing video, and wonderful context ! Subscribed :)

[@DroningaboutIreland]

Wow, superb video Matthias and the way the technology got itself out of that situation is impressive, new sub here my friend.

[@codylerephoto]

Absolutely amazing footage man. We were just in Madeira last November so this was a joy to watch to bring me back there.

[@MatthiasDangl]

Im sure you've enjoyed it there!

[@ellisgrisham1117]

That was absolutely stunning. I really don’t think any other FPV would have done that your video changed my mind about trying FPV for the first time. I guess I could wait on my air 3 ! But of course, I will not be taking a chance like that just to see my recovery. I’m just glad it can do it all drones that.😂

[@firstdayfirstshowproductio3489]

dude you lucked out... what a cool shot ... amazing. Just got mine... cant wait to try it

[@mfadzlijamaluddin]

The recovery RTH feature was mental! I was 50/50 about the avata 2, but now like, "DJI! Take my money!"

[@veereels]

This is actually crazyyyyy 😂🎉 congrats on getting it back!

[@andrehome2493]

That was amazing, how it went back through the hole cool

[@uzairramli1573]

Woahhh so impressed ! Thank you bro for the very great review !

[@Flow__Trap]

this has me so hyped to get this drone! great job

[@MatthiasDangl]

Happy to hear that!

[@JohnMiyazono]

Thats actually insane haha the recovery is crazy

[@pianomans1]

This is just soooo cool! Amazing technology! I'm blown away that the avata2 went back through the whole befor ascending and returning to home .!! Simply amazing!! I just got mine today. It took a while to get it all set up. So i took it out to a parking lot in the dark with minimal lights.wowwww i could actually see in such low light and the video looks awesome. Pretty clean looking straight out of the drone to my fold 5 with the new wireless fast transfer! That is great also! Cant wait for Friday after work!

[@MatthiasDangl]

I was impressed as well, enjoy it!

[@RJsAerials]

Bro that was epic. Awesome job

[@noticestudios]

we cant wait to film with this!! incredible footage btw

[@digitalkiteaerial]

Great video & that RTH was epic

[@mananddroneuk]

That was a crazy recovery. I'm impressed with the new Avata

[@nunorodrigues7394]

Great video. I live in Madeira Island, and great to see the drone footage. I recently purchased avata 2, can't wait to find new spots around the island.

[@kmeeet]

Dudeeee.... No way it came back through the gap.... So lucky! Great video!

[@tomleefilms]

That save is unbelievable… can’t wait for mine to arrive! Great video dude!!

[@MatthiasDangl]

Thanks, you'll enjoy it!

[@Max-hh1ui]

Crazy video!

[@AndreSpoerl]

Wow, amazing video!!! Thank you...

[@JackyLi]

Recovery was insane!!

[@followyoursoul7659]

what a save! glad you got the footage

[@rightasrain811]

Amazing review!! I've ever seen!!

[@michailbaroutsis3076]

Coming back home through the whole is crazy! I laughed and felt safe at the same time 😂 i think i am getting one soon 🤪

[@SkyTouch08]

Absolutely epic. New Subscriber!

[@estebandiaznarvaez7230]

You took it to the limit, by taking the chance! Awesome man.

[@KiteMichaelXY]

Unbelievable! Fantastic! 👍‼️

[@redflametech]

I guess that’s why DJI is the only brand that anybody has ever recommended buying instead of the less expensive options that are all over Amazon and the Internet but everyone always just says skip the $300 drone and just get a DJI and I think that your video speaks volumes to that. I am blown away that it flew back through that arch and then flew itself up to its return altitude and came back to you. That was very impressive. Thanks for the video. I can’t wait for mine to get here this week.

[@SlayBoredom]

I am sorry but when it comes to FPV-drones there are several brands that not only get recommended more but are also far better than the avata… come on, do your research. If you are talking about their normal photo/video drones, the I agree.

[@harshrajjadeja7087]

Wow, what a recovery there

[@_NeXus6_]

great stuff!

[@Andre-Mostert]

That is pretty epic that it goes back to that location and then return to home. Liked and subbed.

[@MatthiasDangl]

It is! Thank you

Amazing!!

[@ConnorTrimble]

That recovery was insane! Didn't want to buy until then, but damn!

[@gogovitch66]

Very impressive 🙌🏽

[@IZE_FILMS]

Great review bud!

[@dronmoarigato8488]

Hey... Thank you for sharing this... Best rgds... 🤝🏼👍🏼

[@markp1506]

I can't help but wonder how purposeful that return protocol was (when it turned around, backtracked carefully to where it lost connection, while rocking side to side)....if that was purposeful, then that is great! But I wonder if it wasn't just ridiculous luck?

[@riskybusiness5]

Standard protocol on mini 3/4 drones on loss of signal to take return path about 50ft to attempt to regain signal before initiating RTH. But never expected to see this on FPV drone over water. WOW

[@pablonieves]

How lucky 4 you that it recorded that amazing footage lucky you HOOAH

[@ColSam458]

Dude... you better do the lottery as that`s got to be the luckiest save ever!! DJI has really listened and fixed the main complaints of the original Avata. Definitely appreciating the reduced noise levels, secure battery fitment and image quality. The new easy acro modes are quite promising. Hopefully with future updates, DJI will expand the range of moves/add more customising. I would also like to see a package that includes the remote controller 3 with the fly more combo instead of the motion controller. I`ve been flying stabilised camera drones for a couple years now and I`d really like to make the leap to FPV, this seems like the perfect drone to bridge the gap. Thanks for the review.

[@powerhouse884]

All that BUILD UP for the recovery definitely paid off LOL..... That was INSANE.!!!

[@adventures_media]

Great work. ❤

[@MatthiasDangl]

Thanks!

[@axgrf]

Regarding the EU Speed Limit - How does the drone enforce it in full manual mode? Does it just interrupt? Does it pull its nose up? Technically that shouldn't be possible in M-Mode since the pilot is in full control during that mode. I wonder how DJI did that.

[@rolandcsuka1829]

Super Drone!Ich finde es echt cool mit den neuen Kamera!

[@itsnvg]

The BEST FPV Drone for the BEST Filmmaker out there! 🎬👨🏼‍✈️

[@countrydoctor81]

your video quality is really good, your flight skill too.

[@mydrones]

looks epic. i want to buy one

[@muneeb386]

Amazing bro ❤❤❤❤

[@overfly_pt]

Wow crazy rth 👍👌

[@diegocazares00]

Great video man! Compared to the DJI FPV, would you say this is worth upgrading to? I've had the DJI FPV for a while, but I'm still trying to decide whether to go for a new one or not. Thanks for your help!

[@ekkydharmadhika]

Awesome!!

[@cassandernordas]

Looking really nice. Might hae to snatch it up hehe

[@MatthiasDangl]

Can recommend! 💯

[@fabineas]

Uff... How lucky you are! What an amazing Drone! You had the best Marketing Situation for DJI haha

[@danialfpv]

12:21 thats crazy. Awesome review, btw.

[@felderphotography]

This is insane 🥵

[@MatthiasDangl]

Thanks Fabienne!!

[@HDscreenerX]

Really cool shots! But It's not a fair review when you say: "The battery life time is out of this world compared to the other fpv drones of this size.." without showing the numbers. Other KZbin reviewers showed real flight times, for instance advertised flight time 23 minutes but in reality ~17 minutes (Potato Jet).

[@MatthiasDangl]

Thank you! I‘ve already recorded the avata vs avata 2 comparison where I will talk about the reallife flight time. The 23min only is for optimal conditions, tested by DJI. But even 17mins is out of this world compared to other fpv drones of this size 🔥

[@Rolfrstefani]

Great video. I was half way through this video when my doorbell rang and it was the delivery guy with my Amazon box containing my Avata 2 combo. Had to postpone finishing the video to unbox and start charging everything.

[@MatthiasDangl]

Enjoy your new drone!

[@Phototravellers]

Thank you for the review! We use the DJI Air 2S and the DJI Mini 4 Pro - this would be a great new one :-)

[@AnemosFPV]

Hahaha it’s insane it came back trough the whole! Insane

[@MatthiasDangl]

Yes! (w)hole another level 👀

[@BoomRandomness]

crazy recovery! not a textbook safe but u just wrote a new chapter of the book

[@MauroTandoi]

awesome RTH

[@emanuelebosco594]

best review

[@ukmonk]

great video thank you! thinking about getting this and already seen some great reviews of Avata 2. Is the controller better than joystick if you are used to playing video games for example?

[@Janibbu]

thats nutty

[@KhaiXam]

When you say your FPV crush dude, I almost want to send this Avata 2 back to the shop😅😅😅😅

[@TacticalDroneTV]

Nice drone!!

[@Roccofpv4888]

That was Crazy !,the way it turned back to breakup position😂😅

[@KarthikDasariVideos]

awesome
