- Do those new top sensors provide all the obstacle avoidance capabilities the DJI AIR 2S needs? or will the lack of side sensors still be a problem? In this video I put the DJI Air 2S through its paces in an unbelievably tough test of the new APAS 4.0 and demonstrate why we may still wish it had side sensors.

Brilliant Gavin, the Air 2s is my first drone with Active Track and its a ton of fun. The kids and I went through all three batteries playing around with this feature in the garden on Sunday!
So so much fun isn't it my friend! It's certainly a great drone that can't be doubted! How are you finding it overall?
@@GAVINHR Having a blast with it mate. The plan was to make a bunch of TH-cam videos with it first, but I've slacked there to be honest!
Haha ! Mate I've absolutely busted my balls so to speak to get these videos out. Got a further 4 sat ready to launch ! Then the fimi mini arrives soon ! Can't keep up.
Amazing Gav. It did alot better than I thought it would. Great test 👌
Cheers Richard, me too!
the apas on the Air 2S is amazing, i did a test on a nearby trail and it was nearly flawless, great vid...i love this drone, although my pockets hate me lol
Ahh man it's all worth it when you're happy. One life - live it my friend
Great review mate. mine gets delivered tomorrow cannot wait!
Aww brilliant! Super excited for you!
I'd love to pull the trigger on getting this drone, but I just got the Mini 2 a few months ago. The active track is certainly a selling point as you illustrated here.
Works so well! The sad thing is DJI could give us tracking on the mini 2 but save it for the more expensive models. Then again with no obstacle avoidance I can imagine if it did have it there would be lots of crashed drones
Now that is truly amazing. Thanks Gavin.
Very good isn't it!
Such a great test! Thank you!! Will it film in these modes in Dlog?
Excellent sensor review, pretty impressive. Thanks
Better than I expected!
Thank you so much for this video i found a lot of informations 🙏🙏🙏
A good vid ,explanation of the obstacle avoidance test. You could have gone one step further, ride a bike at a speed same route to see if it would have been able to avoid the branches etc. would have been great to see if its worth buying as i'm looking to buy, for mountain biking Thanks
Brilliant Demo Gav,and well done DJI
Can't argue with this one I think it did great
great video gav ,wish i had one, still got mini 1 lol...
Still my favourite drone ! Genuinely I love my Mavic mini
Very impressive, Gavin! Keep up the good work. Ian :-)
Cheers Ian! Yeah did well I think
Nice test! Seems to do a bit better than my Air 2. I like how it attempts to reacquire the subject. If only it had side sensors, but it can’t have everything I suppose.
I was so impressed when I was out of shot that it actually found me. As you say it made effort to find me and that was unreal! Thanks for watching
Impressive stuff.
Nice work! Impressive considering the lack of side sensors.
It did very well I must admit
I don’t see enough improvements over the A2 to buy. Without side sensors it’s not much better than it’s predecessor. Better camera but not that much better. It’s Trace is ok but you were very kind in avoiding tight spots. If I didn’t have the A2 I would purchase it but I would not replace the A2 with this. Thanks again for a good update.
This is why I'm trying to not compare the drone as such and try review it on its own merits and let you the viewer decide. I think s lot of people think like you and it's a lot of money as an upgrade!
First Drone Moonwalk I've ever seen, mate. Nice work!!!
Haha thank you!
Sum day I’m going to be brave enough to try sum active track with me and the hound sum day great video air2 s army out
You really need to as it works really well!
Amazing 👏 job. Well done.
Thank you kindly
Great demonstration. I’m on the fence with the Air 2S particularly for photography. I already have the Air 2 and love it. Did you face any issues with the props in the video and incorrect altitude? Your thoughts would be appreciated. Thank you
I sure did ! I was the one that reported the altitude issue but I don't now believe it's the drone I believe it is the DJI fly app as others have reported it. No props in the video I think it was relating to quickshots.
You done well there gavin I would of been panicking going through them trees 🌳 after just laying out that money 😁 but it does look good I just don't think ill get away with purchasing and drone after the air 2 and not had much use out of it because of the lockdown but I will try hardest cos like yaself love gadgets and love dji because of the simplicity of there software even down to the osmo pocket 2. Can't wait for you to do active track on the car look forward to that one 😀 cheers gavin
Yes I think that's probably enough spending ! Well I try to do tests that make sense to me and put it through its paces so other people know what it's good and bad points are. You seriously need to do more with the pocket 2, I have a few videos ready to launch and soon as Freewell get done back in stock. Yeah it should be fun with the car ! Cheers for watching
Great video
Really appreciate it thank you
A real test.. thank you..
You're welcome
The wife said you weren’t running fast enough like she was doing when our 2s drone hit a tree
Hahaha! I'm not fit enough any more to run faster 😂
@@GAVINHR C'est ma femme qui court et moi je pilote le drone assis sur la chaise 😉
Very smart!
Also, if you keep the drone slightly ahead or behind you in parallel, the angled flying keeps apas working all around, try to keep it near 45 degrees and it's ridiculous good...even at high speeds
Yeah man! I noticed with the air 2 it did angle but this seems to fly a bit more straight
Fantastic test well done!!! Now another similar test if possible, but now riding on a bike
I'm going to try it with it following a car that should be a good challenge!
@@GAVINHR yes thats indeed a challenge as well...try to drive your car into a tunnel...see if drone will follow. But with a bike cycling under trees is also a challenge
Hey I live in East Yorkshire across the pond, no tunnels here it's completely flat!
@@GAVINHR great area for flying a drone. Yes flat but still very beautiful
Have you tried Parallel with side flight turned off? I'm sure I have seen a vlog where that was done but I cant find it again.
It has side detection mode in that mode it will angle.
Really how!? 😁
@@ivanjdrakov1957 i heard somebody saying that. Maybe it's in settings.
No it automatically slants like the air 2 and it gives you a little bit leeway for side obstacle avoidance. Seen a comparison video of the MA2 and MA2S. But got the same results
@@belovedLion80 yeah i meant that it goes at an angle.
@@belovedLion80 yeah i meant that it goes at an angle.
Nice test.
I've the mini 1 and I want to do the upgrade, do you think that I should buy Mavic air 2 combo or air2s no combo? It's the same price...
Regards
Hi Victor, 100% go for the fly more combo. You really want more than one battery when you're on location
very impressive gav,,and dont worry i am sure in about 6 months they will do side sensors for them and just add several hundred pounds,,,,,,but i must say i am impressed,,,,good vid thanks for sharing
I'm not buying it ! Haha! Thanks for watching Barry, it performed absolutely beyond my expectations totally.
better than expected.
I was surprised myself to be fair !
Good one, it did really well. But to fair on the drone the leaves on the bushes aren't that thick at the moment. But no complaints about the performance of it.
Hi David! Generally I think the thicker leaves would help it somewhat even further allowing it to sense more so considering they were so thin I think it did amazing 🙂 it certainly exceeded my expectations
Can you adjust altitude for tracking?or what is the highest altitude for tracking?
If I’m doing active track and I need to stow the controller. How do I prevent buttons from being pressed? I haven’t seen a lock feature on the controller.
Esta bueno el bicho y chevre tu vídeo
HEY Gavin not into the AIR 2s but i wish Mini 2 could do that
Wow very interesting video.... I'm thinking of getting my Air 2S Fly More Combo for Christmas... Still giving DJI time to release the Mini 3! Lol I'd love a Mini 3 over an Air 2S..
Been thinking about all the features and quality that the Air 2S has and something is telling me it a bit too much for me.. Also I like to fly over people and with an Air 2S I think they'll notice it easier than my Mavic Mini or my Mini 2...
But I do really love the Air 2S and will probably get it for Christmas, unless a new Mini comes out..
😁🛸🇧🇬🙏
Awesome video, watching it all!
Sweet
Keep well and be safe Gavin!
🇧🇬🛸😁🙏
Thanks Ivan! Yes I think so also, people certainly notice the mini! I saw the player on your video earlier look up at you! Did you see? It has lots of features and a fantastic drone but you need to make sure you use them to take advantage otherwise it's quite expensive !
@@GAVINHR you're absolutely correct about all this... 😁🛸🙏🇧🇬
See I watch your videos mate when I get chance! I think I said before I don't often comment as when I actually find time to watch a video I use my TV so no way to comment or anything !
Can it do active track/APAS in FPV mode?
Impressive !!!!! Big shame no side sensors but still done the job 💪🏻
Exactly! Great piece of kit!
I might get one I’ve only had my air 2 - 2 months and flown it twice lol so still teething 😨😂 but that’s of to dji as I’m running the latest firmware but my app keeps prompting me to update I’ve tried everything but it still flys ok any thoughts welcome
Cheers gav 🙏🏻
You're welcome man thank you for watching
Love my Air 2S , but for me I prefer the mastershots mode
Mastershots are amazing I must admit
Can this drone or any other do obstacle avoidance and 4k at 60 fps?
Yes it can
Was this filmed in 1080?
Hi there, the camera footage is 4k but the phone recording is much less
Is that @bev barmston skidby drain ?
Hi Steve, it's Barmston drain Beverley beck
Nice video but the test is a bit wrong. You muat not atop in active track keep moving all the time dont stop in each tight area. The drone avoids obatacles much easier when you dont stop. That struggles the drone. Only stop when it loses you.
You are absolutely correct but to be honest after the active track on the Mavic air 2 I wanted to watch how it behaved in person as I was genuinely surprised how well it did. Yes indeed the faster I walked the better it was but I was also trying to present a video as you can imagine so the constant flow wasn't ideal - plus I think the drone did a better job at getting round than I did! 🙂 Thanks for watching and your comment
Did that person in the field with the dog and you think you were a Crazy Person or was that a friend or loved one? Haha!
Haha! Yes Paul they were with me ! Imagine if it was somebody unknown watching me run round trees getting chased by a drone haha
@@GAVINHR Keep up the great videos! :-)
😁😁😁😁😁
I've watched a few of these tracking tests fail on this drone now . dji's response was not great . If I wanted tracking a skydio would be the choice 100%
Skydio would be my choice also Shaun, sadly in Europe as it's not CE marked it is not legal to have it over here
how are you recording your voice
Just using the phone Microphone form this one :)
Well you know where the mute button is :) failing that ... Don't watch? Simple really
@work channel you can always jog on!!!!
It doesn't actually ! It's called " engagement " and to do it you need to watch an advert. So thank you. Please carry on 😘
@@GAVINHR thank you. dont know how to do that
Why people have to do this tests next to water 😅😅😅
Because it's scenic haha!
Hahah yeah, next test will be if it is waterproof lol
Well my mini 2 was it seems so I have hope!
🤣🤣
Not so bad if you go slow. When you go fast it takes too long to stop. It is pretty dangerous i think. DJI is stil far away from the tracking of the skydio 2.
All they have to do is make the gimbal be able to rotate and you don't need side sensors. The drone can fly straight forward with the camera angled 90deg towards you to get parallel shots. I don't know why DJI is so obsessed with adding sensors everywhere when you can accomplish the same with fewer sensors if you just added a rotatable gimbal.
