DJI Avata – After 30 Days Of Flying. EPIC CRASH

ah it's been a month now I've been using the DJI Avatar every day and I have something to say this will be an honest and unpaid review I've been using different cineworps for about two years now all I'm about to say in this video is confirmed by my experience [Applause] [Music] yes I managed to lose my drone in the Thai jungle I lost the signal and the Drone collapsed [Music] we were really tired and at that point I accepted the idea of the Lost drone but let's start from the beginning seeing all the great commercials and positive feedbacks without mentioning the minuses instead of buying a dream I got a disappointment for Mini 3 and mavic we also had high expectations but they Justified themselves and customers got even more but I can't say that about the DJI Avatar foreign [Music] I didn't like are the goggles they push on my nose and it's hard to breathe I thought maybe it's my face but even my Tanya with her tiny nose could feel the same I also found a few YouTubers who have the same problem my solution is to put a soft padding but this is also not very comfortable the goggles hang on my nose [Music] the biggest disadvantage is the noise the Drone is very noisy people are startled and you can't fly it unnoticeable all neighborhood would hear you and with the new drone restrictions it's kind of a big deal mycena log 30 runs much quieter recently I used it in the hotel after that the hotel forbid the Drone flying on their premises [Music] [Music] now let's talk about the weight DJI Avatar is 410 grams same size cineworth with battery and the naked GoPro weighs around 250 grams so Avatar is much heavier half a kilo in the air on a high speed if I have a break like this crashes somewhere it will be a disaster and believe me it will especially if you are a beginner thank you I crashed into a swamp now I have to disassemble my drone [Music] the components are very well made and it was easy to put everything back together now I need to check if it can fly [Music] foreign yeah it does there is height limitation 500 meters it's impossible to fly higher for fpv it's important because your hands would be tight in the mountains for instance I reached the top of a goon volcano which is two kilometers high you can check out the video on my channel I use this long-range drone smaller and quieter than Avatar this is my favorite travel drone with GPS with the right batteries it can stay in the air for more than 20 minutes more than Avatar can handle foreign [Music] let's talk about the price because of the currency problems I paid 1400 which is a lot and still it's not the full price the Drone doesn't have a remote controller I had to pay two hundred dollars for that you definitely need a controller the included handle is just for fun don't forget about ND filters on the DJI website they cost 80 dollars I saw bloggers showing them but they don't come in the box there is only one battery that will give you 12 minutes of flight and that is definitely not enough so you'll need a fly more kit with two batteries that's another 280 dollars all together for a set you have to pay two thousand dollars [Music] SD card slot is under the propeller I forgot to close it once and it did bump on the propeller not cool very important issue is with the goggles for now they can only work with the DJI Avatar as far as I know you can't even connect it to the DJI fpv while with my old goggles I can use them on any fpv including the new Avatar I think it's a bit strange to have such an expensive system that can work with only one drone the Avatar drone is a cineworld it's designed to fly indoors the cam resist winds gets shaky and it's hard to make different Maneuvers personally I expected it to fly better outside some reviews claimed it can fly as a 5-inch drone it's not true height gain and Rapid Maneuvers are not that great the most discussed topic now you lose control during rapid turns same thing happened to me the Drone started shaking and lost altitude my subscribers claimed the same problem and now lots of videos on YouTube people lose their drones because of this problem video quality turned out to be a disappointment it doesn't have a 4K with 120 frames per second but the GoPro does I use slow motion quite a lot and it looks pretty cool there are plenty of video comparisons on YouTube for GoPro and Avatar and they all conclude that the GoPro has the better quality the built-in stabilization is not that good so you'll need to use giroflow the lens has a fisheye and unfortunately you can get rid of it in the settings but you might be able to do that in the post-production I don't know why people don't mention that in their reviews yes there are a lot of disadvantages but there are also good sides [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] this is a new charging hop I don't think I need to explain it new batteries are the smart batteries so they are safe to use new goggles are much smaller than the previous DJI fpv goggles if only that would fit my face there are top quality goggles you can see all the details for example here I was able to see the wire and react on time I was really impressed with the signal especially using the FCC signal mode my guess is that in the future we will be able to use these goggles with normal DJI drones they've also added the gyroscope and we can control the Drone with our head turns [Music] I was really impressed with the signal especially using the FCC signal mode recently FCC hack was released it's a text file that goes into the goggles SD card now the Drone can go further away you'll find the link with the file in the description in the USA there is already an FCC connection but if you live or travel in Europe the connection will be three times lower [Music] to travel with a drone like me and make videos from your adventures you'll need a quality music for your edits all music and sound effects from this video I took on the epidemic Sound website very comfortable service you can easily find music especially for your edit it will save you time and energy but the best thing is that you'll have a license and you won't have any problems with the copyrights on YouTube your edits will promote with the speed of light please find the link in the description register and you will get one month of free trial I really like how the GPS in the Avatar works there is a pause button if you push it the Drone will hover even if it's inside the house it will maintain the position using its sensors which is pretty cool beginners who never flew at TV will love the motion controller it's possible to make complex flights among obstacles smooth cinematic shots but you won't feel total control compared with the fpv remote controller if I use my controller I can feel the Drone twist turns Dives all kinds of Maneuvers are fully controlled [Music] if I use the stick it feels like a computer game feel like the Drone is flying by itself and can easily crash foreign and it's hard to keep the same altitude pantsaya really enjoyed it I suggest you learn how to fly with the controller and you will enjoy every flight if you're looking for a drone to make videos I suggest you buy the DJI Mini 3 Pro it's very quiet and sometimes people around won't even notice it ideal for traveling [Music] but if you think you're ready for fpv Avatar is perfect for beginners you'll get plenty of adrenaline and bright emotions fpv will bring you to the parallel universe where you can fly like a bird [Music] there is a propeller protection GPS is a fix of the broken parts and convenient charging hub for Batteries you buy it and you're ready to fly it of course if you have two thousand dollars to spare for a hobby why not [Music] but if you're a videographer or a traveler like me if you need better video quality and you don't mind tinkering around with electronics I suggest you buy alt goggles as they dropped in price after the Avatar came out so it's a bargain this will allow you to use lots of kinds of fpv drones different video setup options and the components will be much cheaper I have the perfect spot for fpv flying a construction site of a luxurious Villa with an ocean view as you can see the distance was only 200 meters I lost the connection and lost the Drone to the Jungle I was hoping that the Drone would hover when it lost the signal but no it went down in about 15 minutes I approached the crash site but there was no connection all I had was an approximate GPS location from the find my drone function local construction workers saw the Drone going down I promised them a hundred dollars if they could find it locals refused to help they said it's dangerous lots of poisonous snakes and lizards I got scratched and bitten by an unknown wasp the search was unsuccessful and I lost all hope the next day I got even more help and few machetes to go through the jungle I got some new data using my mavic 3 I got an approximate altitude and direction of the Drone but the signal was lost we were really tired and at that point I accepted the idea of a lost drone last try we found it I'm so happy that three days of search were not wasted even the workers who witnessed the crash were surprised that the Drone was found in another place the Drone was wet it rained all night and I don't understand why the Drone lost the power after the fall in the bushes the SD card had the flight recorded and I could see the whole crash the Drone was acting very strange foreign was charged and plugged in there are plenty of videos on YouTube where people crushed the Avatar and they can't find it my advice put an Apple Air tag on your avatar drone all is good the Drone is still operational to start flying on fpv you'll need at least 6 hours on the simulator I've been flying for two years now and I think it's the best hobby ever flying makes me happy full concentration adrenaline and meditation at some point I'm from Ukraine and when the war started my house was taken by the Russian troops I was really anxious at panic attacks and flying my fpv drone helped me to live through this tough time thank you friends for watching
