So yesterday I few my Avata 2 in Manual Mode but in this training session I flew very slow to learn how to control it. I did have couple crashes when I was trying to go through some branches. It is very good practice to learning how to fly the Avata 2 very slow. I have now been flying the Avata 2 a couple months and a little over a month in manual mode. Well this morning I had another training ...

Not sure how many people knew about it, but today Waco Rowing Center proudly hosted its 3rd Annual Waco Rowing Regatta! I headed over to Brazos Park East to practice some FPV flying, and I noticed the park was packed. At first, I wasn’t sure what was going on, but then I saw the rowing boards. Luckily, I had my other drone with me, so I put it up and managed to capture some shots of the boats i...

So this was another practice session with the Avata 2 in manual mode. It was a rough one. I change the angle of the camera from 15% to 20%. It definitely increased the speed. I took a could hits but the Avata 2 did great! I need more practice.

Great vid!
Thank you!
Nice video . What is the program to edit that you use for this . Tks good flys
@@RFFLY81 Davinci Resolve

I have that same camera bag. I use it for my Air 2s. Its great! Nice flight!
Yeah I liked it so much I have 2 of them to hold Avata 2, Air 3 and M4P along with all cables and blades. Bagpacks are so much better than bags. Thanks for the compliment and watching!
I wish the prop guards werent necessary for a 107 flying over people. you're flying a good distance on top of people anyway, if your drone fails or flips over, the props would shut down regardless
Parabéns amigo está a ficar cada vez melhor no voo FPV like registado abraço 👍
Thank you sir!
With the plus battery the system is over 250 grams (0.55#) and requires registration to fly and a waiver to fly over people. With the standard battery and prop guards it is over 250 grams and requires registration and a waiver. ANY of the DJI mini series with prop guards requires registration and for ops over people, a waiver. I’m part 107 as well as manned (part 61) pilot.
You’re definitely doing better with the avata 2 than I am. Wish I had one. lol. Practice makes perfect so keep it up. I’m sure if it was me flying it, it would have gotten stuck in one of those trees. And it would probably still be there. Hahaha.
Thank you Sir! 😂😂 yeah going slow in manual mode is sooo hard. Its like flying a plane that wants to fall out if the sky. But it does help learning how to control the Avata 2 better. I did another normal training session this morning ( not going slow) . It felt like redemption. Lol i’m compiling it now. I’ll post it later this afternoon. Its kinda long but you should check it out if you are able.
@@JandE-TEX-DRONESlol. But I’ve always been taught slow is fast
@@WeretheRobertslol😊
Love time lapse videos, they're somewhat therapeutic.
Yes they are cool to look at! Thanks!
Part 107.31 (2) Determine the unmanned air craft’s attitude, altitude, and direction of flight; This means with your eyes, past 300 feet without using the camera and DJI Fly app I can't see the Mini's "attitude" Merrian-Webster Dictionary: 5 : the position of a craft (such as an aircraft or spacecraft) determined by the relationship between its axes and a reference datum (such as the horizon or a particular star) at 1,000 feet, there is no way to visually see the "attitude" of a Mini. I call it the big FED trap or constant source of revenue for the FAA. One of many 'rules' that make no sense.
Can you lower the altitude when it’s doing this. For example can I have it track my car from 20’ or is it always up high like this ?
Yes as it is going you can lower the drone as it is following you.
That’s a really cool event to get to fly a drone for. Was that manual mode or was it active track?
@@WeretheRoberts this was with the Air 3 and it was all manual. Yes I was pretty excited when I realized I would have the opportunity to catch this. I’m gonna look when they’re gonna have it next year so I’m more prepared with that said I should’ve had the ND 16 filter on there not the ND8. That sun was pretty bright.Lol thank you!
How do you come up with these amazing sounds for your videos, I like this beat.
Thank you! I go to youtube and search cinematic background music no copyright. There are a ton of songs. I just kind of go through and find the one that fits. Then I download it.
Fly it at high speed in sport mode and test it's avoidance then !
I think tha the Avatar comes with the prop guards already install. Is much smaller and the camera is probably the same.
Yes I so agree. I have the Avata 2 and when I saw it I knew its a lot better for indoors.
@ is the cámara of the avata 2 better , worse or the same as the one in the Mini 4 ?
@StrivingMen to me it’s really close to the same. It’s actually really good! The mini for Pro camera is a little better the Avata 2 uses the Dji Action 4 camera but same size sensor as the M4 Pro.
is that compatible with DJI mini 3?
No they are not.
I think that even if you select sports mode and the go into active track it defaults back to Norma(P) mode
@@thegoodthebadtheugly8251 it very well may go back to Normal but it still showed Sport on screen.
Good vid brother and talk about some FAST Flying for sure! You did really good job maneuvering the drone going that fast. Speaking about your speed, what was the maximum speed during the flight?? Just wondering if you noticed the speed. It looked pretty fast but at all the different angles of attack it can def be misleading to the one viewing. Good to see you’ve been growing/expanding your fleet of drones, it’s def easy to do and addicting as well, haha. To Everyone viewing this video, SMASH the Like button and Sub to this channel, it’s FREE, haha. He puts a lot of effort into making his vids and Def pushes his drones pretty hard with testing and puts out some good info. Anyhow brother, good video, keep ‘‘em coming, later from the Big D!
Thank You !! Most of the time it was around 27-30 mph. I can say faster than I usually went in past videos. It was a little scary at times but I def want to get use to this speed. In past videos I was going around 19-23 mph.
That’s def fast but to me it looked a LOT faster, haha. I’m sure it was dicey those couple of times around the trees! Hey, you were flying that with the hand control with goggles right?
@@171jacjac yes google 3 and RC 3 controller in manual mode.

Thank you! I had some close calls!

Very nice my friend!

@ ❤️❤️❤️
Ty for uploading this. Been pondering the purchase.
@@wnose I love this Avata 2. It take a while to learn manual mode but I am getting the hang of it. Its a ton of fun! Definitely get care refresh!!
@JandE-TEX-DRONES try a drone fpv simulator program. Plug in your controller and practice.
@@wnose yeah I did download one and it helped but I can fly now without crashing lol.
Bom dia meu amigo já está muito melhor no voo FPV parabéns like registado abraço 👍
Thank you!
This is really cool. But I'll stick to regular drone flights lmao. I love watching others do this. Very exciting for me.
Thank you ! I still need to get a lot better before I run down some waterfalls and such! I still love my regular drones but this is so different!
I can see myself by our car on it's left side as it was being serviced. Cool once-in-a-lifetime experience!
Yes Sir!
Love this footage very nice
@@Quis85 Thank you!!
I also have a set of these also but I’ve never even tried em on. But at least I do have em .
Yes ever since I got the Avata 2 I dont use them.
And where's your vlos exemption exactly??
Woooooooooooow nice
Excelente voo amigo parabéns está a apanhar o jeito like garantido abraço 👍
Thank you sir!
that hurt looking at it. ain’t gonna stop me though. i plan on getting one. i’m still playing with my mini 4 pro😊
Yeah it did! I am missing mine I sent it off yesterday hopefully there will be a fast turnaround. Its a lot of fun to fly but it takes a lot of practice.
Engineering marvel!
i saw this drone flying in the sky, so cool that I find this not even a day later.
Yep!! That train was awesome! Thanks for watching!
Bought a set then weighed drone and it’s close to 350 grams requiring registration as category 2.
Over 250 and below 400 requires certification, RID, and a waiver if you’re doing ops over people or moving vehicles. Using the non plus battery as DJI reportedly says is required, supposedly doesn’t activate the RID. If that’s true then standard battery and prop guards is over 250 and requires RID and registration just to fly so you would then need to add an RID module BUT since the aircraft is equipped with RID and the pilot is not allowed to disable it in an over 250 drone, there is quite a mess to deal with.
Great video! Exactly what i was looking to find before ordering one
Your welcome ! With that said I own both the M4P and Air 3 I would advise getting the Air 3. It is bigger yes but it does a lot more and holds up great in the wind. I love my M4P but the Air 3 is on another level. Also since the Air 3S is coming out soon you should be able to find the Air 3 at a great deal!
The aerials on the drone pick up the signal better from the back of the drone. It drops off when the drone is facing towards you. If you reverse back you will still get a signal.
Could you try with wind, to see the performance??!?
Yes it is on my list to do.
Why did you cover the speed indication?
For those Pilots without as U.S. part-107 license or in Canada a Basic Certificate utilizing the <249 gram exemption, please keep in mind that these prop guards will put your DJI mini 4 Pro OVER the weight threshold thus making your flight "illegal". For those that have the license, then No problem BUT keep in mind the restriction to proximity of people and buildings. It is a bit of a catch 22. Greetings from Ontario, Canada.
@@barrybegley5379 yeah it does put over limit. I have my 107 so it does not matter to me. Weight Drone DJI MINI 4 Pro - 171.67 grams Plus battery - 121 grams Scan Disk - 0.26 grams Prop guards - 42 grams each side with a total it 84 grams. 171.67 grams) + (121 grams) + (0.26 grams) + (84 grams) = Take off weight - 376.93 grams / 0.831 lbs
exactly what I was thinking
yes sr, I think one you change to mode go back but yes keep up the good work, good run for today, be back for next video yes sr,
there is actually an instruction how to apply the prop guards correctly and it was pointless to wrestle with them for half an hour.
I dont think it was half an hr. The video was only 20:56 min 🙄🙄
Put a big smile on your face! 😊 Nice drone coverage John, and great music!
Very nice! You're gettin' all the cool toys!
Lol it’s pretty cool! But its taking a little to use to. Thanks for watching!! Next drone will be the Mavic 3E with RTK. It will be a while on that one. I’ll have to save my pennies! Lol
Boa noite amigo excelente aquisição Avata2 ainda estou um pouco indeciso se hei-de adquirir um desses pois o voo FPV é bastante diferente parabéns like registado abraço 👍
Thank you my friend!
I just also received my MAVIC 3 CLASSIC, this thing is awesome, by far my best I ever owned. Flight time on this thing is amazing and the connectivity between buildings are just amazing. I own an Avata 1 and I hardly fly that thing. I feel too vulnerable with the goggles on my face.
Yes Air 3 had a great flight time and over all the best drone I have ever had. This Avata 2 is crazy but I think I do like sitting when flying lol. Of course it will be easier with more time on the controller. Thanks for watching and commenting!
Thanks for that . I did not know there was an update for the Power 500 ☝
Your welcome! I did not know either but when I have got any DJI device usually there is some update so I was trying to see how I update this.
Does this accurate rth apply to the Pro 4 and higher? I have the mini 3 Pro...
Yes it does . My test was with the Mini 4 Pro and the Air 3 and it worked for both. Does the Mini 3 Pro have the precise return to home feature?
Thanks I will try again, I didnt do the 24 foot trick last time and it landed a couple of feet from the pad.
@@gbh1946 after doing some reading I see some say the M3P has it but they say it was not get good with that version. But yes try the 24ft and hit me back to see if it worked for you. I am curious.
@@JandE-TEX-DRONES I just had a quick try in my driveway and it hit the pad 2 times out of 3...so I am fairly impressed! The second attempt it missed by about just over a foot but I was changing the gimbal angle as it was landing which may have altered things? shots 1 and 3 were good when I did not try to change the gimble....
Thats great to hear!!
Cool bridge, and awesome video of it! Nice job!
@@gama45 thank you!!
Interesting range test there with some great views. Did you manage to keep it in sight at that distance? I’d have trouble watching mine that far away..
Yeah when those drones get up in the air they do get hard to see. The color does not help either.
awesome flight, brother... You should try that with a Mini Killer drone and see how good it comes out... lol
@@WeretheRoberts hahahah! I am not sure if the feed would get around the other side without breaking up.
J&E, Great Video !!! Don’t let Kevin talk you into flying the same flight with a no-name brand drone…😂
@@JMprodquad 😂😂 yeah that would not happen lol Thank you!
@@JandE-TEX-DRONEShahahaha. Come on man. Everyone’s doing it.
@@WeretheRoberts😂😂
I noticed your went from the M4P to the Air3 and appeared to be the same RC. If so did u have to rebind ?
@@spikemixture3269No they use the same controller RC2. I did switch controllers they have the same equipment on them so they look identical.
Thanks I have both and can use both with either drone but must bind the 'other' if using the same RC and drone on the same day. I am hoping a firmware update will stop the rebinding process. I want to just pick the drone I am flying from the screen when booting the RC no binding needed .....
@@spikemixture3269 you know I need to walk through this process and Its a great idea for a video. But ill have to do some testing and reading. I think there is something with the DJI Care Refresh and this process or maybe there was. I have it on both but I will have to see.
Love this man. Great job
@@Quis85 thank you!
