Putting DJI Avata to the Test

Hybrid FPV seems to be the right term. I enjoy too much driving real FPV to invest in this kind of thing.

[@ericteipen]

Nurk, I am a retired farmer from 50 miles south of Indy, Seymour area. I had a ATV accident and it left my right hand paralyzed. I'm so excited to try out that controller. "Left handed" of course lol. That hand held controller is a "God Sent" for crippled up people like me....I have watched ya and rooted you on for years buddy.

This review is by far the best I have seen today and I have seen some good ones. Outstanding.

[@SkeezyFPV]

The avata is incredibly durable. I sat on mine yesterday and it was fine lmao

[@SkeezyFPV]

My azz kinda hurts tho lol 😂

[@myfalconry76]

It can’t handle sharp 180s flying in full manual mode. It’s not a freestyle quad it’s a pro film making tool. The DJI fpv is designed for hard turn, high speeds and getting shots on the move. The Avata is designed for low winds close quarters filming around people through a set senerio or in buildings. The fpv flight style with out all the hassle, those of you that fly full manual and your heavy with your fingers and try and 180 you’ll get tumble

[@drummerdonniedotcom]

Very informative. Well produced. I am a professional UAV pilot and have been for almost a decade. My bread and butter is in mapping and other pedestrian endeavors. I've been casually following the FPV drones but lacked the desire to build an FPV drone (I have built a few drones). I always felt that an FPV drone without prop guards would be useless. And other limitations like battery and transmission limitations have kept me in the wings. It's good to see that if a client absolutely wants some kind of tight building shot that the technology is now at a point where I feel I can plop down some cash, practice a bit and perhaps deliver useable product. Again, good job. Subscribed.

[@m4ximusprim3]

Ditto- for those of us who fly non-fpv for various uses and may get the odd request for a shot indoors or in tight spaces (I had someone ask me to shoot a flythrough of a wooden cabin boat stored inside a barn, starting in the boat and ending outside looking down at the open barn) this will be perfect rather than having to rope in a specialist. I don't think it will ever replace a good FPV pilot, but for a quick real estate shot or something it will definitely fill a gap.

[@SkeezyFPV]

I’ve been flying gps drones and a few rando bnf fpv quads. I’ve got tons of time on the sim too. I got my avata last week and unless you are willing to put lots of time in on the sticks you still aren’t going to get the good fpv shots that want with the avata. You just aren’t going to get the footage you want if you can’t fly acro, period imo. I love the avata. Don’t get me wrong. It’s a great fpv quad for beginners and it’s also a fantastic tool for professionals, but the value is in the footage. If you can only do what everyone else can already do then there’s little value in your service. My suggestion is to learn the f@ck out of acro so you can stay ahead of your competition. The avata will definitely do the job but DJI isn’t going to do the work for you to replace necessary skills. The footage in nanny and sport mode just isn’t the same as acro no matter how you slice it.

[@daltonrandall4348]

Of the hundreds of Avata videos I've already watched, yours has been the best. Long videos are just fine if they are packed with useful information. This was all killer, no filler!

[@deckyrizkiadi]

Great review Nurk. The Avata to me is more a travelling cinewhoop that let us pack with very minimal stuff and get the most out of flight time to explore and get creative. Amaze with video quality and video transmission penetration, something that I have been wanting on cinewhoop. ✌️

[@OperationMinuteman]

There's nothing like building and flying your own cinewhoop. Your Shendrone build video was the ticket for me and with the GoPro 10 mounted that drone has been my go to 6s cinewhoop for over a year now. From what I've seen, the Avata isn't a huge improvement over my old 6s shendrone. I think I will be sticking to my Shen for the time being. Thanks for making this video Nurk. Your work has been a true inspiration to the FPV community. Keep up the Great work!

[@ChrisParayno]

I really dislike that we don't get the "normal" controller with this thing:-(. Thank you for a real review. There are too much "camera platform" youtube reviewers who really don't know what they are talking about.

Also wish you would be able to use normal Lipo's and aftermarket props for easy replacement long after they would discontinue this like they have with the DJI FPV qwad last year.

[@AlmightyEye]

Mine was in the mail when I decided to contact DJI and have them do a stop & return. You now have to basically tether the drone to your phone to “activate” pre-fight and basically stay tethered to your phone for basic use. Major put-off for me. That’s just one more cable and one more battery to worry about, not to mention what data is being recorded and sent to god knows who for every single flight. The drone gets good reviews for the most part, the negative reviews come from pro freestyle pilots that expect performance out of this drone that it wasn’t designed for. For the almost $2k I was spending here, I’m gonna build my own drone with better hardware and hopefully bypass all that tethering to an App BS. Probably the best coverage of the Avata that I’ve seen so far though, no shilling - no BS. Good stuff man!!

[@Phrancis5]

Been waiting for this release and man it looks fun! After yrs of building/flying fpv I'm kinda tired of soldering, dealing with lipos, and configuring betaflight. I can understand why people just throw money at prebuilt stuff... Too bad they couldn't get it under 250g and the whole kit is just pricey. However the specs and overall value is pretty amazing compared to building and setting up a digital fpv cinewhoop with anywhere near the flight time, range, or ease of use... I do worry about a lot more irresponsible drone pilots making the hobby look bad every time DJI puts out something amazing and easy to fly.

[@irvinJoelBanta]

agree 100%

[@AerialWaviator]

Weight (AUW) is mostly attributed to battery and thus flight time. DJI likely prioritized offering 10+ minutes flight time vs. trying to hit the under 250g. In future as battery technology evolves this will likely be possible. (typically battery weight drops ~40-40% every 7-10 years for same amount of capacity)

[@Tivis7]

Exactly

[@stealthyfang3660]

it is very pricey compared to other cinewhoops especially considering it is all proprietary. Edit: I just specced it out, I think you would need to buy the $1,168 package with v2 goggles + motion controller + drone, (if you want the new goggles add $200 but honestly they don't work with other drones so rn that's a no from me), then the controller for $200, then extra batteries for $280 bringing the total to: $1,648 or $1,868 w/ the new goggles

[@AerialWaviator]

@@stealthyfang3660 True. The Avata does offer a number of features not offered on typical cinewhoops. The tilt camera, ability to hold altitude and hover in position, and ability to transition for manual flight to a stable hover. Not every pilot needs, but some might consider this added value in a $629 (drone-only) option. There is a audience for this cinedrone. Many FPV pilots may not consider this good value for their needs.

[@johnwheatley1971]

Mavic 3 user here who just ordered the Avata today. Your vid confirmed what I thought - maybe not the best drone for an FPV enthusiast, but a good drone for someone like me who wants to expand his videography options. Thanks for the vid. Very well done!

[@CarlosHernandez.RentaHouse]

For a fpv (cinewhoop type) drone is a very good option, of course if you are too enthusiast you need something like a nazgul ! This drone is more than amazing for (real estate/sports/events) videos...

[@flytec3d933]

Thanks Nurk ....great review its nice to see someone at last cover distance and signal penetration super impressed with the range. I think like you I would transfer this onto my own build but what and improvement from the first FPV DJI... shame the goggles are not yet backward compatible considering allot of folk have invested heavily in DJI air units / Vista .. DJI listen up and give us this option...

Always love your content! I am very happy to see this drone. I have held off on buying the previous FPV from DJI. This is definitely more the style I am seeking. I get that DJI stability while I learn, and then can turn myself loose on manual. Perhaps saving many unnecessary crash, repairs, and replacements.

I'm no where near a professional, but I have been flying the BetaFPV Cetus Pro for a long time and love it. I can't fly in manual mode, so matter how much I've practiced, so I'm really maxed out my flying with the Cetus. I'm thinking of buying the Avata because of the digital aspects and the long flight times. Knowing that I can get a kit and everything works well together is a huge selling point in my book. I don't have time to fiddle with all the things, I simply want to go out and fly and have fun, and I think that the Avata is going to give me that. Thanks for the great review!

[@bhosterman]

What an amazing time we live in. I think you did the Avata a great service. As a new drone pilot and a few weeks under my belt with a mini 3 pro, I'm switching to the Avata. Originally, I got the mini for real estate photos but found it to be too fragile for fun use and one gentle collusion with a tree branch (orbit mode) was enough to send it off to be repaired. I come from decades of being a RC hobbyist. Planes, trains and automobiles! Not so much with the trains. Point being, I want to have fun with my RCs. I feel like the Avata will be both a tool for a generic aerial photo of homes and for (eventually) ripping it up at a park or interesting location. I live in such a boring area that the mini's novelty wore off quickly. Yeah, it was cool to see my house from 400ft up and the rest of the neighborhood too, but that got old after day one. I want to be able to fly like so many of you pros do and turn even the most mundane locations into an obstacle course without the fear of one wrong move and I'm without a drone for a few weeks. Hopefully the Avata fulfills that role. Excellent video!

[@Rcschim]

Great review Paul! I love your intro so much. Every intro showing off that you worked with Mark Rober or for a wicked Ford commercial has to be awesome ;) Don't care for how it goes with DJI products these days. Top influencers all pump out the vid on release data and flood KZbin with positive opinions. Your review I trust tho! Almost made me fall for this cinewhoop ;) but on the other hand I know how little flight time my DJI FPV drone got... greets, Mario

I enjoyed your video and I believe it is one of the few that are very well organized in discussing and analyzing a new product. You developed a well thought progressive stream of information by introducing the product and detailing the different features and accessories that come with it. Then you put it to the test by using your expertise and showing us all the different modes and features in actual use. Finally you made us know your opinion based on your professional experience and made some suggestions and recommendations that will not only be heard by the DJI people but also by people like me and others interested in a trusty evaluation on a new product.

Put both goggles and smart controller on a tripod, connect them via usb and there you go :)

[@8ways2fly]

I think what almost every 2nd fpv pilot is waiting for the new goggles to be compatible with the old air units/vistas. The drone itself is a cool little toy, but too expensive for what it offers. In the end you buy a cinewhoop put a naked GoPro on it and you have all what you need for much a lesser price. Great honest review Paul. Cheers! 😊

Unless I missed it, did you talk about the goggle feed experience ? 720p of the old system vs 1080p of the new goggle ? Is it a big upgrade in terms of live feed quality. ?

Honestly the Vista and DJI air unit already looks so absolutely stunning and they are still so many people who are fine with analog. We have to remember what we really need and this is ridiculously high quality which is really cool but it doesn’t mean that first generation FPV air unit and Vista is not already exceptional compared to analog. analog is still great for many people

The management is the part I least want to deal with - this seems like it will make that aspect much easier while fitting my need: 4K recording, great range and penetration, and the combo pack will give me gear upgrades all-around.

First video about the Avata that makes me think about having one. Fantastic info.

[@longspeakmoto]

LOVE the video!! super informative and has helped me in my decision on weather or not to purchase the Avata. I am a semi beginner fpv pilot I typically will use my 5in drone to get mountain shots for my videos but have been trying to get a smaller cinewhoop to do more close and personal shots. After watching this video I have decided to go and get the Avata instead of a regular cinewhoop. My main reasons to get this is the fact that I don't have to worry about to many items in my bag. I live in a van and am constantly trying to cut down on what I have as my space is already tiny. This drone seems to be a great option for me as I will be able to pack in all nicely in a drawer and when I am ready to shoot I can just throw a battery in and go. With my 5in I have to put on props, battery, gopro, make sure everything is paired correctly, and so on. Hope this helps anyone who read it all lol. Once again thank you for the video you definitely got a like and subscribe from me :)

I had a build your self drone. I bought one of this avata online. Because instead of purchasing a cinewhoop one. I think this avata is straight to the point just out full of your bag and fly.

This is kind of the type I've been looking for. Rugged is the key. Safety is key--lesss chance of prop slash. I do wish you would have demoed the handheld joystick controller. Since I don't have ANYTHING right now which controller should I end up with. I can tell you're a pro and there was a definite pucker factor to your flights.

[@RCOverKill]

I would like to try it, but I doubt I would ever buy it. It would be a good way to let people experience FPV, but I think people would still rather fly the DJI rather than putting the time to learn to fly in acro.I get 10 minutes cruising on my 3.5 inch, almost 6 minutes of ripping hard on a 650mah. I think with the right combo of motors, , battery's, auw, etc djis flight time can be matched, but you're going to sacrifice some speed/power to achieve that goal.

I'm sure this has been brought up before, but you can lock the ipd by pressing in the knob and rotating it to the right...rotate left to unlock.

I'm really looking forward to the O3 air unit so I can get these compact goggles

12:55 now that’s convincing for me to get interested. I have air2s but have always skeptical if fpv signal and range is worth it for me (especially the signal penetration)

Such a good review! i just got the Avata and wow for me so amazing to fly keep the good work

23:40 se você girar os parafusos que regulam o foco, apertando, eles ficarão fixos e não perderão a regulagem 23:40 if you turn the screws that regulate the focus, tightening it, they will stay fixed and won't lose the adjustment

I got mine and absolutely love the Avata and new Goggles. The Goggles have a perfect seal for me, so 0 light leak. Only annoying thing is the price of extra batteries.

Push the knobs up and twist to lock the goggle 2 adjustments

Nice spot (Holliday Park). There's actually still a Babyhawk of mine 40 ft up in one of the trees in the parking lot. Lol.
