That place just makes me want to sit back and crack open a refreshing Nuka-Cola. The good thing about the goggles 3 is that you can watch out for the raiders and deathclaws while you're flying.
Awesome Content KEN. . I been with you for many years. I think you were around 7 or 800 subscribers. It’s been a great ride. Hard to believe you’re about to hit 100k the big check mark. That’s validation & a HUGE Milestone. You grinded and put in the work. Well deserved Ken. So when is the 100k party? lol LFG
The avata 2 isn’t really made to be for the racers and freestylers that want to win competitions, it’s made as a stop gap between the 2 different types of drone consumers, those who want both a cinematic drone and a freestyle drone. It does a reasonable job of both, great cinematic videography and fun freestyle videos. You get great video and still have great fun while doing it. I’ve got my hands on one and have my original avata up for sale. Still waiting on the RC3 controller, because of course it’s sold out, but at least I have it on back order. Already taken it, on my second battery charge out to 3.5 kilometres when it went into return to home mode in strong wind and in sport mode. Still had slightly over 20% battery left, and I’m sure that if it wasn’t in sport mode and that I’d gone up to 500 metres I’d probably make 5 kilometres easily. Love, love ,love it and can barely wait till I get the new controller , not that I’m a great freestyle flyer, but I can fly freestyle in full manual mode. I loved that hotel, what a good price for a decent looking hotel, I’d be willing to bet that the next time you head out that way again, that you’ll stop there again. All the best from Australia mate.
Was the footage shot with RockSteady or stabilized in post with GyroFlow? If that is all RockSteady, then that seems to be a big upgrade from the Avata 1.
@@OriginaldoBo Thanks, the new RockSteady seems to be an improvement, but I figured GyroFlow was still going to be a better choice. A video comparing the two would be useful.
Really enjoyed this one, always cool to see FPV footage of places like this. Definitely a different type of bando. 99.7k subs right now, hopefully you'll hit your goal soon man!
Best wishes there, homie. When I get my Avata 2 in a few weeks, expect an order from me again for more of your bling, light mounts, and phospho prop guard bumpers (hope you have those!) Hopefully you're LIVE when you hit 100K subs ... rip it up buddy, cheers!!
been loving your videos for a few years now Ken been with you since around 50k, even though I am not an OG it has been amazing to see your channel grow!
Can I ask do your Goggles 3 have dead pixels? If you could play a white video on them and look closely. I'm on my third replacement and DJI insist that dead pixels are normal and I shouldn't worry about them. Whereas I thought I was buying a pristine product and seeing two or more dead pixels in the middle of my vision really bothers me. The most recent set has 6 dead pixels.
Awesome you are almost to 100k subscribers! I know you will exceed it! Thanks for sharing your thoughts on the Avata 2! I’m going to have to stick with the good old potato for now!
I'm going to LA and Vegas in July, I have to stop there with my Avata to get some great footage too! I loved the first gen Avata and Avata 2 looks awesome. :)
For starters that looks like a very cool place to fly. Just getting my Avata 2 right out the gate it’s noticeably so much quieter as you mention in your previous video. Really appreciate the info in this one. 100K right around the corner.
I do wish the Avata handled better in the wind. So far liking the new Avata 2. I do hope in the Goggles 3 they introduce a little soft padding instead of that thin cheap rubber with your face up against molded plastic. You are dead on about the repairability on this thing. The only thing you can fix is the freaking props! You guys ever come up to the Reno, Lake Tahoe area I hope I can get a heads up. Would be cool to fly with some others. I wonder if there is a Sean Ozz review coming around the corner?
I miss and the weather and such an awesome place to fly FPV! One question: did you fly this with the original stick remote or with the more traditional FPV RC 3? It look like you were flying manual mode.
We had a great time Ken hanging, laughing and flying together with @SeanOzz and Bob aka @Old Farts with Drones. Definitely think we can get a group out here during the Vegas Drone meetup to fly our favorite bando waterpark. Another great video! 100K before the end of the month for sure!!!
Fantastic location and video Ken. From what I've seen this version is very very fragile compared to the first avata. The motors are not recessed like the original and if you crash it from what I've seen in other videos they become easily damaged. There is also no user replaceable parts available like the original. I think I'm going to stick with my A1 for now and I just bought some extra parts as they're disappearing from stores. Thanks again for the great content
Do you think your phone holder will work the same as the original avata controller 2 on the new controller 3 without disruption to the inbuilt antenna? Great content
Great video! What a cool place to fly! Got a quick question. My RC3 is being delivered today. Is it possible to still use head tracking mode with the RC3 or are you stuck with motion controller. If so that's extremely frustrating. I would love the ability to be able to fly and pull manual and still be able to head track. If it's not available now, do you think it could be added with a firmware update in the future. Thanks for any input
Great footage Ken! At least the camera has D-log now. Glad it’s not as loud too! 100k subs is a great accomplishment and well deserved! Good to see you at the SFDM.
@@OriginaldoBo good, thanks. One thing about dji, seems like they do fix issues pretty quick. Probably just update the firmware, because I don't think it's a lens issue or anything.
I had to make a decision to no pursue international due to the cost of the shipping and when I calculated the previous issues it just wasnt worth the hassle.
imagine if they upgraded the action 2 to use the sensor from the action 4, which would then be perfect for home built fpv, and the avata 2 had a magnetic mount on the top which could interface with the camera to provide a dual camera set-up, allowing us to use cinematic frame rates, flying with underexposure to maintain detail in the sky (or just allowing the pilot camera to auto expose quickly for better visibility while flying and keep the recording camera to auto expose slowly), and there could be an option to have picture in picture for both cameras, or switch views in case you have locked in your settings and then the light changes- there's nothing worse than knowing your go pro is going to be totally wrong because the conditions have changed, we badly need to be able to control our recording camera remotely, of course you can fly back close to you and hopefully connect to it with the app but without gps hold or running inav it's a challenge
Great video Ken! I am loving my Avata 2. Three Flights with the motion, well 4 now, but right into the RC3! It was great seeing you at the SFDM! Keep up the great work!
With continued content like this, you will no problem make 100,000 followers. Question about rates, are you using the same rates as the original Avata or have you tweaked it a little?

Hey buddy!!! Im still here with ya!!!! Watching you and your vids still enjoying your content you have made a difference in my flying and how much enjoyment I get from it. Thanks for your great products. Grabbing some now for my new avata2
Dood! Crazy you are at the Cortez! My dads cousin, Tiger Novak, used to be part owner of that joint some 35 yrs ago. Ill never forget arriving at 730am and passing a woman playing the slots, smoking a cig And connected to O2 tank, lady was still posted up in that same place come 6pm 😅 place is classic! Well Dobo, thanks for review as always, just got one😅 Do ya think you would use this on a realistate gig? Cheers Hundy thou coming up and deserved yo!
things i dont like sequential charging and charging time. sport mode speed reduced with motion controller vs rc goggle diopter range not enough for my eyes (need 1 more click) dji fly app is horrible
Watch out folks that want to buy Avavta 2.. Only if you own one of a limited number of phone models will you be able to download and use the DJI Fly App and therefore you will not be able to set it up... I'm returning an Avata 2 I just bought due to this.

Bro, the music choice for this video. Wtf. Feel like I'm clothes shopping in my girls fav retail store at the mall.
Perfect hope you found something nice
@OriginaldoBo um, not really. Did see a copy of WDM (weird drone music) for sale....but I see you already have a copy.
Great location to test out the new DJI Avata 2, and you had a good crew with you. You got some really cool shots, thanks for sharing.
Silver play button is right around the corner.
What a great time we had. Thanks again for convincing me to go.
We did the most we could in 2.5 days 😂 couldn’t of asked for a better person to roll with
Really enjoyed this one, always cool to see FPV footage of places like this. Definitely a different type of bando. 99.7k subs right now, hopefully you'll hit your goal soon man!
where is that abandoned place again located? is it near the magic mountains? Planning on getting avata 2. that is a nice place to fly.
Did you fly the whole time with the motion controller?
Best wishes there, homie. When I get my Avata 2 in a few weeks, expect an order from me again for more of your bling, light mounts, and phospho prop guard bumpers (hope you have those!) Hopefully you're LIVE when you hit 100K subs ... rip it up buddy, cheers!!
How do you remove all the info (HUD) from showing as it is here? I dont have s computer currently wondering if i can do it just within settings.
Will it lift my GoPro 11 mini so I can shoot in Hyperview or Superview like I do with the Avata 1 ?. Thanks.
Yes it will lift it
@@OriginaldoBo Show me please where you will place it ?
I haven't been able to connect my iPad Pro (4th Gen), but my iPhone 12 does for wireless video transfer. Any thoughts?

Awesome video and meetup, Ken. I loved meeting and flying with Sean at spin up, awesome dude.
Awwwww, shucks. 😊
Joe! 😃 you gonna be at SpinUp 2024?
That looks like a fun place to fly! What do you think of this version of rocksteady vs gyroflow?
I like the look of Gyroflow better still

Flew with the RC 3 , Sean did a few motion RC flights
When were you there? We probably missed each other by a day or something.
I was there Monday, would of been the second time we ran into each other here
@@OriginaldoBo HAH! I was there Tuesday.
It would've been incredible bumping into each other working on the same product review.

Not with the RC 3 , only the motion controller
@@OriginaldoBo got to love DJI
Please tell me they changed where the SD card goes?!?!? It's my biggest gripe with the Avata 1.
Yep so much better now
Just ordered the ribbed 2 prop guards, they look sick!
I’ve been wanting to go check out that water park. Heard it was being torn down. Gotta go check it out asap
Great footage Ken! At least the camera has D-log now. Glad it’s not as loud too! 100k subs is a great accomplishment and well deserved! Good to see you at the SFDM.
Thanks John appreciate you and was great to see you
That looks like an awesome place to fly! Is that GyroFlow or Rock Steady your using?
Gyro flow I just love the look of it
@@OriginaldoBo Agreed! What ratio were you using? Everytime I try GyroFlow my footage gets this warpy thing going.
Excellent flight with the Avata 2, Ken. What's your impression that the RC FPV 3 is missing the 5.8 GHz, is it problematic?
5.8 isn’t a issue from the RC since 2.4 has better range
Was that flown with the motion controller or were you in manual mode with the controller 3 ?........👍
Would be nice if he answered this question
You're right. There was no warping in the drone shots. Hope people realize to use gyroflow and don't end up with a bunch of warped horizons.
I talked to the DJI engineers yesterday at NAB and I brought up that issue to them
@@OriginaldoBo good, thanks. One thing about dji, seems like they do fix issues pretty quick. Probably just update the firmware, because I don't think it's a lens issue or anything.
Where was this filmed? Looks like a great location
Rocka hoola outside Vegas
How do you watch the 4k footage all my new 4k tvs and computers can't read or open it? Are you getting any range? I'm not getting any good range.
I have 5K screens and I edit on a Mac
Awesome video and loved the music good pick. Nice room you guys got there.
You are my favorite youtuber. You inspire me!!
I appreciate you
Is this the Dji color profile or 10bit.Also anyone else having issues with avata 2 and Gyroflow and ten bit?
Do you have a site you or your team uses to find abandoned places like that across the US/Globe?
Yeah I usually search Google for open places like this
Ahh ken great cntent , was just adding the guards for the avata 2 but doesnt ship to the uk im gutted
Same, I'd like the RR2 but no shipping to Australia.
I had to make a decision to no pursue international due to the cost of the shipping and when I calculated the previous issues it just wasnt worth the hassle.
@@OriginaldoBo that's fair play ken from business stand point totally understand
@@OriginaldoBo No worries Ken, makes perfect sense. 👍
Great info as always. You are correct it does seem not as durable as the Avata 1 but the video quality is much improved.

is the avata2 and action4 camera same video quality
Pretty much
Thank dobo for sharing your videos and your accessories for drones awesome store thanks again, man
How long before we get 360 camera on drones?
I wouldn’t say long
Cool location and a nice blend between talking head and FPV footage
I love these story videos

Enjoyed this vlog!! I can't wait till my RR2 arrive. Hopefully before my vacation next week. Skies the limit for you bud!!
Are you feeling a "There's Something About Mary" Vibe lol I have the same style so it's cool .
Very cool location!👌🏻Cool Video! I wish you all the best to reach 100k soon. You deserve it.

Great video and let's hope DJI listens to your recommendations!
Me too I really hope so
Great video! Love the flying! Thanks for sharing.
Disappointed in lack of simulator support on it.
Love the vlogs man! Almost there brother, 100k subs after party, Dobos house, BYOB hahahaha! Another week, it'll get there, thats my educated guess!

Great to see the chief in this video
Great review and advice doesn't get better than that
thanks for feedback, i like your protection for avata 2 ahahahha 🔥🔥
Damn, 2am release 💪🏾 💪🏾 love the review (sort of review) and the vintage Waterpark in the middle of nowhere 😂 dope.
That’s a good price for a hotel, most people would be willing to pay that price for a room that big.
So, is THIS the long awaited "Review" video we've been waiting for? 🙄😄 Bob Dempsey sure makes that little RC-1 controller look huge. 😂
100K incoming Ken, that's some spot to fly
Another good video Ken
If I could subscribe twice I would Ken. Excellent content!
you the best
That sweater is fire
Danny McGee sent it to me… not intended to rhyme lol
Thank you
Thats a very nice spot to fly !
Just bought some ribb riders baby!
Good stuff amigo.
Awesome flying
Awesome guys ✌🏻
I like the hotel room
an early morning ¿community controversy? drop.... nope just ... dang 1:01 beat... drop....
finally an "original" review, been a minute ✌🏻
just a old school vlog
How cool is Vegas!
Cooler than sitting on a front porch drinking lemonade in spring time
things i dont like
sequential charging and charging time.
sport mode speed reduced with motion controller vs rc
goggle diopter range not enough for my eyes (need 1 more click)
dji fly app is horrible
I'm disappointed with the lack of cheese in the thumbnail... I thought I could count on you, Ken?
I’ll do better next time
LOL! having FUN!!!
Its the season of new gear haha!
Watch out folks that want to buy Avavta 2.. Only if you own one of a limited number of phone models will you be able to download and use the DJI Fly App and therefore you will not be able to set it up... I'm returning an Avata 2 I just bought due to this.
Never had a issue nor due I ever connect to a phone
You missed a checkpoint
🙃 I got a white flag
I do all of my daylight drone recording at 60 fps. Anything below that looks slow to me.
This was Americas first waterpark fyi.
That’s a pretty cool sentiment
100k in a Flash Buddy … you will get there
Lettssss go
That location has fallout 4 vibes 😂😂😂
