What a fantastic video this is. Very informative indeed! Several tech "KZfaqrs" that a follow appeared to release a video on the Avata the split second the embargo was lifted and I must say that a couple of them came across as half assed. Clearly you've spent a lot of time on this and have actually mastered flying it and it comes across in the video. Great job.

Thanks Peter, great vid! Yeah, I just pulled the trigger on the Avata. This is my first "air toy" that I have spent over a thousand dollars for. But after your review, I feel much more confident. I got the package that only contains the motion controller. I'm glad I did! The two main reasons I bought this was one, I've always wanted to experience FPV flight experience and two, to get into some entry level videography. I've flown a few lower end drones and fixed wing for a few years now and really enjoy. Mine doesn't ship until the 30th of this month, can't wait! Thanks again for all the information. Stay safe and be well. Cheers!

Great review. Regarding thumbing the stick versus pinching it, I think both are considered equally viable in the FPV community. I have to say I've mostly seen pinchers though, as two fingers gives better dexterity than one. Some pro pilots, like "Captain Vanover" and "Mr. Steele", use a hybrid of the thumb and pinch. That is, the index finger touches the side of the stick like it's going to be a pinch, except the thumb sits on top of the the stick instead of the side. Vanover's flying, in particular, is extremely smooth.

As a FPV pilot i can say it flies really really well for a cinewhoop i mean the dji fpv was a desaster but the avata has a really nice tune for m mode and its very durable and care refresh is not so expensive like it was for the dji fpv drone. The Avata and the new Goggles2 are really nice, the only thing what i want is full gyroflow support for all FOVs and maybe if it is possible 4:3 in 4K at least in 30fps, oh yeah and 30fps and also 25fps and 24fps are things that i miss.

Best Avata review I've seen! That was great that you included your dad in it to show how user friendly the motion controller is. I'm a drone noob, I just bought my first ever one, a Mini 2, and I think I am going to return it because I find the whole flying experience pretty boring. Just fly here in a straight line, fly there in a straight line, etc. Takes great video, but I think my interest is in FPV. I'm trying to decide between getting a good long range, long run time 5" drone, something like the GEPRC Croc Baby 4 HD, along with DJI goggles and controller, or if I should just get the Avata bundle instead. Both bundles will be roughly the same price, around $1100-1200 before getting any extras, so it's not cheap. I think I will spend another few weeks practising in simulators until a great sale pops up somewhere

@PeterLindgren1 Жыл бұрын
Oh really? I can't imagine flying with it stiff!
@lucanixfpv Жыл бұрын
@@PeterLindgren1 yeah the reason for that is that u want throttle to stay where you put it. But for pitch and roll you want it to return to the center so the drone doesn't continue to roll foreward for example. But i guess if it works it works :D And for the throttle you can adjust the "grip". so how easy it is to move.

After a week of use I can say that to me the best use is taking advantage of one shot video without cut, filming close elements and then from distance.
@ardevop Жыл бұрын
Record everything, then cut things later. I have noticed that FPV is good for fast paced shots or short clips that add dynamics to your regular drone videos and are not meant to fully replace regular drone shot in means of quality or stability. Also a good tip is not to steer right after you fly through something and fly a little bit forward, it makes much easier editing and more fluid and stable video in the end. Watching pure FPV shots makes people kind of dizzy.

I guess this is minor but I would consider "Pause button" as a kill switch rather than M/S/N toggle on the controller. No issues with light leak on the goggles and their fit? I am glad that very poor signal strength was mentioned. Typical in EU. This is a real shame when flying around buildings and it is night and day difference to how good it flies in US with stronger (FCC) power. Great review regardless. Very informative, great shots and editing!
