My First EVER Manual FPV Flight - DJI Avata 2

[@JasonandaCamera]

Damn dude, this was your FIRST flight in manual?? Even with some flight sim experience, super smooth and controlled!!

[@Blueskyver]

Excellent, and super fun. Thanks so much for sharing your 1st Acro mode flight. I also have to start flying in Manual mode. To have your batteries last well beyond 100 charging cycles, recommended to land mostly above 20%.

[@flyingfilmmaker]

Yeah, IK. But... 😂😂

[@brandon9689]

The Avata 2 is way more tame than most of the racers and freestyle quads that you pick in simulators. If I can learn a 105mph Nazghul in a sim I'm hoping I'll be more than prepared for the Avata 2.

[@flyingfilmmaker]

Yep for sure.

[@Circa760]

I just flew my Avata 2 in manual for the first time the other day. So much fun. Happy flying!

[@flyingfilmmaker]

That's awesome! Definitely a lot of fun!

[@RobertoOrtis]

Awesome, please post more!!

[@MichaelandAcacia]

Did you change the position and spring intensity on the left stick before switching to manual? Or did you leave them in the Center?

[@flyingfilmmaker]

Changed them! You can KINDA fly with them in center, but not very well.

[@SoundSphere-rt8jw]

I'm nervous, My sticks come in tomorrow and I need to practice in manual mode. My first 2 flights in Sport mode were already really fun on the Avata 2.

[@brandon9689]

The Avata 2 FPV3 controller works with DRL sim and TrypFPV. I've tried them both with this controller. They are both well under $20 each. DRL is often under $10. Many people don't understand what they are signing up for with manual mode. Especially coming from DJI products. Please practice in a sim, and get DJI Care

[@loichristopher3806]

Nice flight 👍🏼👏

[@flyingfilmmaker]

Thanks!

[@a.moevisuals]

What drone did you use to practice in liftoff ? Is there a way to get Avata 2 drone in liftoff ?

[@shotsbyjason]

no, just freestyle/racing drones

[@MrSilkeeSmooth]

how did you get your remote controler 3 to connect to pc? i can't get mine to show up on curry kitten

[@jessicaekberg5902]

really like the video, but I have a question, do I need a drone lisece or something like that to fly the avata 2

[@flyingfilmmaker]

Ya in the US you need a TRUST certificate for recreational, Part 107 for commercial.

[@Scotlandfromthesky]

Just watched another video on here saying you can't dive with a avata 2.. but this first flight shows that's absolute nonsense. Nice flying!

[@flyingfilmmaker]

Ha yeah, lots of nonsense out there. Now with the motion controller you can't really. But in manual mode you totally can.

[@blenderrender_]

Nice Vid

[@flyingfilmmaker]

Thanks!

[@berkvideo]

wow i remember my first flip my heart was like wantinf to go out now i can fly inside children parks with ease 😅

[@AlD0-Ls]

i envy you people who can use d-log M i just put all normal settings back on coz no idea how to change colour grade

[@LocalCreepyGuy]

cool

[@Rafaelinux]

Nice share. The grading is a bit too heavy

[@flyingfilmmaker]

Thanks! Yeah I did go kind of strong on this one lol

[@darrensims6168]

What simulator did you use please

[@flyingfilmmaker]

FPV Skydive and CurryKitten. I like Currykitten better.

[@foxxo-dev]

What about VLOS? How can you see through the goggles?

[@cipri198zero]

Yeah…VLOS… I think much better they cancel this hobby seeing these questions who should not be answered.

[@foxxo-dev]

@@cipri198zero what do you mean? Legally speaking, you need a spotter when flying with goggles. Also, you need an A1/A3 licence as it is over 250g.

[@foxxo-dev]

@silverfox74 Well, the drone is above 250g still, which means you need the Part 107 licence in america.

[@compdrone]

Ur going to high

[@winesaiyy9700]

Hi, it’s not the best place with trees to learn 😉

[@nitro200flyer3]

Hey is there anyway you can point me in the direction of a video or if you can make a video on how to initiate set up the DJI simulator for the Avata 2. I found videos of people talking how to use it but nobody no one can tell me how to install it on my PC so I can use it with the goggles I have the avada too and goggles 3 with controller 3.

[@Sortaray]

there is no simulator included. you have to download a simulator of your choice.

[@flyingfilmmaker]

They discontinued support for the DJI sim. I used FPV Skydive and CurryKitten, and Curry Kitten was much better.

[@nitro200flyer3]

@@flyingfilmmaker okay now I know why I couldn't get it to work so does your choice of simulator allow you to use the DJI goggles 3 and controller 3? or do you use the monitor on your PC?

[@cipri198zero]

@@flyingfilmmakerI use DRL from Steam, not sure if I did the right choice using this simulator… not sure which one is best for fpv begginers ( I do fly other drones so for me probably something more advanced would be better to skip the boring part ). DRL is boring asf on first few training missions and I dont have yet the controller - its on the way - and I do not recommend using PS5/Xbox controller, its a bad ideea!
