@kalebanderson6564 idk tbf I don't have one I'm just getting into DIY fpv, but go watch Joshua Bardwell and see his explanation, that's where this came from. He seems like a good authority to say something like that
@@CnRSPACE which video are you referring to because I watched his review and I didn't hear him say anything like that, maybe I just missed it. But i mean I can see where someone is coming from when they say something like that because yeah its not going to be able to be super fast and punchy and have crazy fast maneuverability like a traditional fpv drone would have, but the controls are still the same. And I dont know too much either but imo it seems to be a mix of a traditional fpv drone and a cinematic drone, leaning a little bit more to the fpv side. But if you are flying manual mode with the avata 2, the skills will 100% translate to any other fpv drone, within reason ofc.
@@kakashihatake3686 haha not to fly well. Flying in general, like hovering is very easy. Actually flying around gaps or any tight areas is much harder. Not to mention all work just to get a flying quad
I used to think FPV was just regular drone flying with goggles. Until I started watching freestyle. I was humbled very quickly in my first simulator with an Xbox controller. Then humbled again when I ordered my first mini RTF and tried to fly it with Xbox controller experience 😂
Doing FPV acro tricks with DJI Avata, is like taking a limousine and doing donuts in a parking lot. Yes, it can do it, but It's just not built for that.
the dji avata is an allright drone, but if you want to pull harder moves, or do 180 degree spins fast you will need to get a homemade fpv drone, luckily you can get the dji o3 air unit to put in one of your existing old fpv drones, and connect the controller and goggles to that, i 100% recomend trying that instad of the avata (im a previus owner that sold it due to it flying like a potato)
@@daniellukesmovies7607 its heavy, its not got enought power, its too big for the prop size, if you do a 180 degree fast spin you will fall out the air
Personally with the fpv and avata I find landing it in normal or sport mode way easier than manual mode as opposed to a real fpv quad. Food for thought
No it’s a mini 1 and it is very old and by the state of his it defo doesn’t have anything like obstacle avoidance I think his bottom sensors don’t even work 😂😂
i manage to fly and do frestyle in span of one month ..the frustration for first week of simulation is huge.. it stress me out .. after 2nd weeks .. i manage to fly it without any crash .. on the fourth week i freestyling with the simulator.. on fifth day in fourth week .. i manage to fly it ..though my hand shaking ..now i try to improve my skills and focusing in cinematic ans video stuff.. not freestyling .. though freestyling is fun during playing time
That's some skilful drone flighting abilities Nicolas! Once you have mastered the S split, I think what could be a good idea is climbing a high point like a pole with a wide shot, and then instead of going around it and nose diving at the other side like an S split, you actually just reach the top and go for a nose dive whilst looking down at the side you were wide shooting and then pulling out of the nose dive right near the ground. Could be a challenge for your next video as well as a useful manoeuvre if you have a cliff side or just a mountain you want to record.
Maan i just bought a mini4 for photography and videography reasons but at the same time i really wanna start an FPV journey of my own, but for now ill just live through yours. Subbed for the progress
The way you flew around your parents home... You should be able to get that shot. Keep in mind though that the Avata doesn't like high wind. However, you'll do great. I can't wait to see the vid. You have a new sub 💪🏾
What some fpv pilots commenting here need to realize is that not everyone in fpv wants to fly extreme flight or become a pro fpv pilot. I have everything from tiny whoops to 5 inch fpv drones as well as the DJI FPV, Avata, Mavics, Neo, etc. The Avata flies well considering what it is, and the only possible mistake would be not going for the Avata 2 if one wishes to have a prebuilt system. You did a great job!
Nice video I have an avata it so spoils you having the ability to flip a switch when you’re disoriented. I think I need to practice the beginner moves thanks for the motivation.
Props to you (pun intended) for getting back into the hobby! The Avata is actually a pretty terrible drone to learn on and has a lot of bad behaviors and general DJI weirdness about it. It's actually so bad that the first time I flew one I thought it was broken. The Avata 2 (which I just picked up) so far flies much better (bigger props, less weight, better weight distribution), but still not as well as comparable BNF cinewhoops and nowhere close to any of my open-prop quads. If you can fly the Avata, you can probably fly anything 🤣
HAHA I used to have the Nazgul and it definitely flew a lot nicer. I've started to notice the weird behaviours of the Avata especially when you try to push it at speeds
@@NicolasGrant yea handling at speed is not a strong point for that drone. It's pretty decent at being a cinewhoop and flying slow and controlled, but that's about it. Given the shot that you want to get with it, I would practice some dives and get used to the propwash handling, which isn't great. The Avata is considered to be under-powered and given that you will be flying over/near water for that shot, I'd get as comfortable as possible with those specific characteristics...
I started in drones 10 years ago, they were very difficult to fly. No gyro just totally manual . Let it all in the closet, like the beginning of digital photography, waited 15years for something useable. Now with the avata 2 and goggle 3 it’s getting failsafe .
I'm impressed... You seem a bit young to know the soundtrack to Scarface! I've been flying\building analog FPV drones for 3 years... My Goggles V2 and air unit arrive at noon today! Can't wait to dip my goggles in digital goodness! LET THE FIRMWARE WAR BEGIN!
Owning a drone and waiting THAT long to fly it takes an unreal amount of self control. Does DJI have Care Refresh for their FPV drones? Definitely worth investing in.
if you wanna get fpv drones, dji avata is far from the best way to get into it, theres other great drones like the betafpv pavo 20, and getting something like the dji goggles integera and a remote 2 or 3 (thats what i would recomend) :)
The Milford sounds, Lake Tekapo or Mt Cook are some pretty good places for filming, although they are in the south island. But it is totally worth the trip.
The potato is the dji fpv drone and not the avata. Funny enough the dji fpv drone is a lot faster than the avata but it's heavy which is why people call it the potato. Great video!
Ditch the simulator and get you a small 2.5 to 3.5 inch drone and just for in angle. Then go really high and switch into acro. Once you get comfortable with flying then work your way up to a 5 inch. Avata isn't really FPV it's FPV with training wheels. Avata won't fly like a real drone. Avata 2 might but it's nothing like the DIY drones
Good luck for your goal ! I know you can do it !! Because of you I really want to be a FPV pilot haha I think it could be a useful purchase 😁 (Oh and I really appreciate your long videos)
You can do it bruh. I've only been flying fpv since October and i can easily achieve that. And i will say if you're doing it with the avata.... Good luck! I got rid of that and got myself pavo25 v2. I feel like it's how the avata should fly. If the Avata is a middle school drop then pavo 25 v2 has a Master's degree in engineering. It handles extremely well and does what i tell it to do and goes where i tell it to go? 💪🏾
FPV drones ARE self stabilising - that is what the controller does. Even in acro aka rate mode they self stabilise - or at least they try to. If you put them into a certain angle they will try nad hold that angle on all 3 axis. But Nicholoas is correct - they are not self fliying. That shot you want to get is going to be very hard, as you probably won't have line of sight through the cave. You need to have radio line of sight pretty much the whole way, so the antenna on your controller needs to be able to see the antennas on the drone opretty much the whole way. This is one of the things that is really hard about FPV, managing the radio. I think it would take a very experienved or very lucky (or both) FPV pilot to make that shot work. Even if you get it so you can fly through the cave, when you turn left on exit the "promontary" the cave is in will probably block your LOS. I have not flown DJI FPV/radio link and I understand DJI's links are sposed to have very good penetration, but I even so I suspect that cave section might be challenging.
Appreciate the comment ! I've started to realise that this will be an issue and I think the only way to pull it off is to be standing inside the cave...even still it might be pretty sketchy
Training wheels and a governor. It's severely underpowered. I tuned my cinewhoop on beta flight for flying indoors. I capped the throttle output to 50%. It feels like an Avata now.
Bro , buy yourself a BIND AND FLY, Nazgul Evoque F5x with an 03 You will have a better experience.... or build one , the TBS SOURCE ONE frame is TOUGH and CHEAP if you want a good one to BANG AROUND without worrying about breaking stuff. I been flying over a year and I still run a dirty old TBS SOURCE ONE and ive had a ton of dif frames and builds but it came down to the source being unbreakable lol
"The Potato" should also be called "The Yard Sale". Fly it hard enough and you'll have pieces of it all over your neighborhood. Who builds an FPV drone that can't take a few crashes on hard surfaces? The same company that can't wait to sell you a replacement! I love DJI stuff, but the "Tater" is just bad.
@@fly.cinematics thats like saying if you want to be a PC gamer just custom build a PC. like you can be a PC gamer without Building your own PC and this looks like you can be a FPV Drone flyer this seems like you can
I hate the Avata so much! If you crash it harder in manual mode the drone takes control and throttles up to 100% to correct itself but cant do it so it just flies away with NO CONTROL
FPV is a hobby unless you have unlimited funds. Its unsustainable in the long run too darn expensive. Ive spent $7k on DJI and Splash drone and Im about to migrate to free style FPV.
Hi Nicolas, I’m a new pilot - literally bought my first ever Drone last month - I’ve been practicing with the simulator but I feel like im doing something wrong cause when I try to fly manual for real I can’t control the speed In any kind, literally as I take off the drone goes full speed and I am not able to slow it down without crashing - any suggestions on how to gain more control of the drone?
Dji Avata is definetely not a "normal" FPV drone. Yes its a steep learning curve and building your own drone is definetly necessary if you dont want to spend thousands of thousands of dollars for RTF options... Its totally normal to crash and if you cant fix it yourself your lost and have to buy a new one for like 600-800 dollar even when you could repair your crashed one for like 50 bucks.
I also want to get into FPV and I use Liftoff as my Sim currently. Does anyone have an idea which Simulator is best for DJI Avatar 2 (or with which settings it gets the closest) any advice would help a ton! ❤
I’m a noob, but I’ve found that sims are really good for teaching muscle memory and teaching you how to use the sticks to get a drone to do what you want. Though I’ve found sims aren’t necessarily the best for learning the particular flight characteristics of any given quad (they’re like a rough guid or estimate). To actually learn the flight characteristics of a particular drone, I’ve found the only way to get an accurate feel for how a quad flies is: you need to spend time flying the actual drone. I suppose my takeaway is; practice practice practice in the sim, it doesn’t really matter what quad you use in it - try a bunch - you’ll grow your muscle memory and reacting to situations, but it won’t necessarily ever feel like an accurate representation of what flying the real quad is actually like. Hope that helps
Hey Nicolas , very good video . I can do better editing in your videos which can help you to get more engagement in your videos . Pls lmk what do you think ?

I’m a noob, but I’ve found that sims are really good for teaching muscle memory and teaching you how to use the sticks to get a drone to do what you want.
Though I’ve found sims aren’t necessarily the best for learning the particular flight characteristics of any given quad (they’re like a rough guid or estimate).
To actually learn the flight characteristics of a particular drone, I’ve found the only way to get an accurate feel for how a quad flies is: you need to spend time flying the actual drone.
I suppose my takeaway is; practice practice practice in the sim, it doesn’t really matter what quad you use in it - try a bunch - you’ll grow your muscle memory and reacting to situations, but it won’t necessarily ever feel like an accurate representation of what flying the real quad is actually like.

Hey Nicolas , very good video . I can do better editing in your videos which can help you to get more engagement in your videos . Pls lmk what do you think ?
I have the dji mini 2 se
Not fpv
Neat must say
Tahiti from rdr2 is real??? No way
The mavic is not a normal drone, it´s a camera drone. And the avata is not the tipical FPV drone, either.
What simulators did you use
Bro ain’t holding the controller right 😂
