Excellent demo! I was on the fence about it but I think I'll have to get the controller for when you just want to do a nice and easy fly-around looking at the surroundings.
I understand all those FPV pilots being pissed about this shortcut to decent footage but they should be bigger than that; this will speed up the development on the field in general and they will benefit from that. So let DJI be the Apple of drones and let people be semi pros if the want to.
Agreed. Technology and technique improves and makes things easier/better for others. Just because you did things one way doesn’t mean others have to do it the same way.
The motion controller is the only one I use I put the regular controller to the drone away in storage I set my rates the way I wanted and I'm completely happy
Excellent Video, I tried to stop mine by turning it to one side and without pressing the Landing button, so the drone resists a lot and I ended up seriously cutting two fingers
You can orbit with the motion controller, it depends on the speed and how quickly you turn, the cross when at speed and turning hard is that it flies like in a orbit for quarter to half a circle before moving forward again
i just knew this was coming so I jumped over from your last vid! very smooth operator! incredible controller, but even with obstacle avoidance do you think a bird could collide with it? thanks for sharing!
It’s possible. However I believe it’s more likely the drone collide with a bird than vice versa due to the speed capability of the drone being nearly 90 mph. Objective avoidance is made for larger objects so it may or may not stop. However at the slower speeds if a bird wants collide with it there’s little you can do other than land if the bird gives warnings.
Great intro video of the Motion Controller. I completely agree it is intuitive to learn to use, more challenging to race in sport or manual. I think it will only get better. Do you or any of your followers know if DJI is going to permit this Motion Controller to operate with the Air 2S drones?? Heard earlier this year that it was coming, but cannot find anything about that possibility. would be super to use with the enhanced cameras in 2S and mavic 3. Thanks for this demo. Clear and useful to start
I heard some rumblings as well regarding using the motion controller for the mavic line, but nothing came out of it. My guess it has something to do with maintaining VLOS, visual line of sight. With FPV you're supposed to fly with a spotter since you're wearing goggles. So perhaps they didn't mavic flyers to be wearing goggles. Just my thoughts.
Indeed. The is DJI’s first foray into an all inclusive FPV system. I foresee once DJI gets feedback from users this product will improve. DJI does this with all their products.
I had one for a day. I sent it back. It is not even close the precision of the radio controller. I found it to be exhausting to keep my hand in position. Every little move with my hand translated to the drone moving. I am old school, I will keep flying with the radio. I could not justify the 200 dollars for what I would get out of it. I appreciate that you mention this in your video. Otherwise I love the FPV drone. I would not be flying FPV if this was not available. I am an old school LOS pilot, this is my first experience with FPV.
I think that with enough practice that this can be pretty precise. I tried the motion controller with the simulator and I was able to get it to go into some very tight spots. However, I still prefer the regular controller because as I am progressing in my FPV skills, I don't want to limit my flying capabilities.
I faced some issues hand catching it with the MC today. Was very windy, on top of a small rock and I didn't want the drone to flip on the ground. I was not able to shut the motors off, apparently it detected that I pulled it to the ground and it tried to escape by pushing the motors to their max. I finally held it until the battery was emptied. Will try again in a more secure environment.
Exactly, make sure to have a non windy environment when hand catching with the MC. When hand catching, make sure to let the FPV initiate the landing procedure. Don’t grab it until it begins to come down on it’s own.
@@ten15studios20 Ah, thanks for your answer. EU regulations require a second pilot to be present(with the capability to interrupt) during immersion flights. That's why I've asked.
I've looked through the settings and I couldn't find that one either. I'm guessing DJI doesn't want users changing that considering how fast the battery drains.
It depends. For ease of use, nothing beats the motion controller. You literally point at a spot and it goes there. However for more technical flying you need the sticks.
@@ten15studios20 Oh, so close haha. I'm based in San Diego too. I got the drone recently. Still practicing manual mode in the simulator, the motion controls is really fun in sport mode. My most recent upload has both mavic air 2 and dji fpv cinematic together.
@@rexplorer.official very nice! I checked out your channel. Same regarding the simulator. I’ve been training as much as I can with the simulator as well. Keep up the good work. Maybe collab in the future since you’re in SD too. Take care. 🤓
All you guys need to stop with these hand land lessons. It’s not necessary and it’s dangerous. I accidentally got my finger into a prop one time and it hurt so bad I was afraid to look at my finger for a second. Theres a video of another guy with a bad cut.
This is the review i have been searching for but couldn't find until now
Better control and footage with this drone and it's on another level . Aaaaaaaa I love this one! 🤩🤩🤩

Great video man thank you for a great review of the motion controller

THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR HELPING ALL OF US . YOU MADE SO SIMPLE TO UNDERSTAND.
Great review, just hand caught mine today.
great vid
Excellent. Enjoyed it. Informative. Many thanks. Merv. Australia
I wonder if it feels like your in a game and piloting it . Fpv drone really amaze me .💖💖
This Controller makes the Drone Fly like a Fix Wing Air Craft,
The motion controller is the only one I use I put the regular controller to the drone away in storage
I set my rates the way I wanted and I'm completely happy
@@Editer38738whats your rates
Great real world review & very clear. Thanks man!

How do you record the audio? Is this done with an attached periphery or my failing to see something in my FPV settings?

It' a good drone once tuned

@@ten15studios20 I'm sure the DJI FPV Pro and Pro2 are already in the making, we all know how DJI works. My DJI FPV fly's incredible in acro.
how exactly do you engage the RTH?
I had one for a day. I sent it back. It is not even close the precision of the radio controller. I found it to be exhausting to keep my hand in position.

@@ten15studios20 thanks for the hint
Where was this fimed? beautiful there
San Diego, CA. Sunset Cliffs.
👍
Is it possible to control it with two controllers (i.e motion+remote) for intervention purposes?
Not that I'm aware of. For intervention DJI gives the pause button. It stops everything and only resumes when the user is ready to.
@@ten15studios20 Ah, thanks for your answer. EU regulations require a second pilot to be present(with the capability to interrupt) during immersion flights. That's why I've asked.
Can anyone tell me how to set the battery to where it will return to home at a certain percentage. Thanks.
I've looked through the settings and I couldn't find that one either. I'm guessing DJI doesn't want users changing that considering how fast the battery drains.
You prefer to use controller or sticks to fly this?
It depends. For ease of use, nothing beats the motion controller. You literally point at a spot and it goes there. However for more technical flying you need the sticks.
Can I use the new stick controller with my Mavic air?
DJI support
Unfortunately no. The motion controller and the normal FPV stick controller only work with the DJI FPV.
How much is the Motion Controller?
The DJI store is selling them for $199.
That's La Jolla and SDSU parking lot! lol
Close. Lol. The beach scene is sunset cliffs.
@@ten15studios20 Oh, so close haha. I'm based in San Diego too. I got the drone recently. Still practicing manual mode in the simulator, the motion controls is really fun in sport mode. My most recent upload has both mavic air 2 and dji fpv cinematic together.

@@ten15studios20 yeah I’m done to collab in the future. A lot of spots in sd I havent flown yet.
Bro put some music in your video but other than that nice flying .
