International GIVEAWAY DRAWING for the Avata 2 Fly More Combo seen and mentioned in video is LIVE Here! bit.ly/4awdo7a I will ship the winning subscriber the new Avata 2 Fly More Combo seen in this video directly from me with a personal signed letter! 🍻
Dustin, it says Sunday, 5th May 2024 at 02:00 or when the last ticket is sold (whichever comes sooner) is there a certain number before you close it ? guess I'm asking how many tickets will be sold ?
Nope….. I’m waiting for Dustin’s OVER WATER “Range Test”! 😂 My Wife purchased my first drone (Mavic-2 Pro) after accidentally watching one of Dustin’s videos. It’s been an incredible hobby ever since…
@@DustinDunnill - A suggestion for your next range test. Just fly it out as far as it will go, then pick a safe & discreet place to set her down near a road for easy retrieval. No more lost birds! :)
Love your video man! Unlike most other reviews, you are showing a lot of continuous footage which is great. Other reviews are only showing random short clips of footage which is annoying. I like seeing nonstop flight. This video made me place my order for the Avata 2.
This channel is by far the best channel for drone reviews. Dustin really pushes these drones to their limits, especially when testing the max flight distance which is a great thing to know for the average drone consumer who usually will not be going out anywhere near these distances but can feel safe knowing they can go quite a ways without the possibility of loosing connection, or even worse loosing a drone. I only watch this channel when k wanna find out the max range of a new drone on the market. Thanks for all the great videos that are so helpful to a lot of people who are looking to get into the hobby, or people just wanting to know the capabilities of a new release.
Hey, watching this for the 4th time BEFORE I even got mine delivered! Now watching the 5th, I did my very first in the GARAGE! Only flown the Mini 3 and 4 Pro, so these controls are totally foreign to me! WAS gonna try goggles with Mini 4 Pro, but went right to my A-2. Been so apprehensive on flying FPV, I don’t have an observer so have to fly in totally secure locale for now. Getting use to the new sounds too…may take a while. Thanks again!
I am thinking that DJI should give us a bit more time to react when notified to return to home. You might be able to fake a faster dive by being in head tracking mode and changing the angle of the camera with your head as you point the control stick down.
If you haven’t recorded the range test yet, could you try holding the controller in your left hand and showing off how easy or hard it would be to use that dial on the side I don’t want to not be able to use it because I’m left-handed
This is my fifth time watching this one since I finally unboxed, charged and updated mine now! WOW~I got the Fly More combo, and using a silver inked Sharpie, numbered my batteries to balance the charges/cycles more evenly. It’s surprising how that organization helps. YES, I think I said I’d do first practice in my garage, and SLOWLY flew around it to get comfortable with maneuvering it. Nectar really hit anything except when I flew a little to high about a crossover beam where the downdraft suction made it suck towards the ceiling for a second, will have to practice in the house one day. Thanks for the post! You’re the best.🇺🇸
I love my avata, but your review sold me on the 2.. just got delivery confirmation for tomorrow.. feel like a kid at Christmas, can’t wait to check it out.. Thanks for the chill review..
Excellent video. I now realize that I've been too timid with my Avata 2. Your video showed me just what it was capable of in terms of those "threading the needle" shots. It's crazy to think that as fast as you were screaming around in sports mode, the Avata 2 will do 60mph in manual mode with the controller 3. The remote is definately going on my Santa list. I'm also curious what effect the ND filters will have on the camera. Supposedly it allows you to get some good motion blur. Your property is beautiful, by the way, and really added to the demo. Thanks for posting.
I feel like this review including "First impression" and "After 1 year of using it" all in 1. This's the review that we all need. You scarified for your viewer.
Great test flight Dustin, you really put these new drones through their paces. The Avata 2 did very well, and the camera looks great. This one is a keeper. Thanks for sharing.
Best review , I personally was so confused between the mini pro 2 and a2 , ordered the mp2 hours before seeing this review and now regret it 😢😂 All the other reviews were never so convincing damn it
You really need both, I got a Mini 4 pro for pictures and avata 2 for fun. You can fly a Mini almost anywhere, but you can't do that with the avata, at least in the uk.
This was a great review, bro! Super informative. I learned a lot about the Avata 2. Especially liked the durability test. Those were some crazy heights you were dropping it from!
The flip & roll options seem pointless. I appreciate knowing the limitations you're showing, as well as bugs to fix. There are so many features, it'd be nice if selected/most desired features could be added to the Home screen. The Turtle feature is pretty cool, but it seems like the rocks it landed on broke the propeller. Maybe they need a titanium hampster ball on each :)
Awesome video & no nonsense review 👍 Just - wow, tech has come such a long way, that thing is amazing & my next purchase lol, after I've done my maiden flight of mini 4 pro I bought yesterday. Good channel man, keep up the good work
Got my Avata 2 on Friday. First flight was diappointing as I realized the controller didn't work and it was showing a gimbal calibration error--wouldn't move the gimbal. I did a firmware refresh with hopes it would clear up but nothing changed. Called DJI service. They walked me through everything I had already done. Nothing changed. I went on forums and began finding people who have the same issue. DJI techs were on the forums as well saying that firmware refreshes should fix the problems and everyone was coming back saying that it wasn't changing. AHHH!! I finally talked with Best Buy where I got the drone and they said to bring it back for a return. Bought a second one and can't wait to get it out and fly it this afternoon on this beautiful day!! Hopefully it won't have the same problems!!
Hi there, we are sorry for the inconvenience. Please remember to remove the gimbal protector before turning on the drone. If there is any other issue during the use, please feel free to contact us, we will do our best to help. Thanks for your understanding.
Hey Dustin! This is one of the best reviews of the Avata 2 I've seen so far! 👍🏻 Not only because of your beautiful backyard but also you are very happy while flying 😊 First I got the Avata 1 Fly more combo with the goggles integra. Last week I purchased the Avata 2 drone only and connected it successfully with my existing goggles and motion 2 controller. Because of bad weather here, I only flew in my apartment 😁 Can't wait to take it outdoors in nature and forest to fly like a bird 😃 Best regards from Switzerland! Niels
Wow. It flies so awesome! Hopefully DJI will have a software update to fix those bugs. That 360 head tracking is absolutely amazing. Excellent flight test Dustin & looking forward to the range test!
Great job Dustin, and the video being long needs no apology how else can you go in-depth and show what the drone is capable of, you probably know by now but there are no sensors on that drone, suspenseful video
Thanks for the great video. Seeing the crashes and easy propeller replacement is helpful. I know some crashes will happen as I've never flown FPV before.
I was wondering when I switched into PIP mode why it gave me a huge screen of what was in front of me and a small screen for my aircraft and didn’t know how to switch them. Thank you, much better!
oh man can't wait order one coming . i love the avata such a fun toy . I have other drone but avata is my little tank goes to branch , leave , rock and keep going.
Great honest and informative review. Excellent presentation... Don't know what you do for a living.. But you were born to do this kind of work. Outstanding in this field... Keep up the good work enjoyed watching from the UK.
Nice review, Dustin... I bought the entire Explorer Combo and Fly More kit for the AVATA 1 two weeks ago, I haven't unboxed a thing and decided to send EVERYTHING BACK... including ND filters and extra props to purchase the NEW AVATA 2. 😂😂😂 CHEERS! 🍻
Outstanding job. I have learned a lot.I have the Avata one now. I need to buy the Avata 2. I should have waited. 😢 My boys and I will have fun learning this summer. Thank you so much.
DJI has designed it to want to RTH @ 20%. Anything below 20% will degrade the battery faster. You can also use the small joystick to go up/down left/right without moving the camera.
This is the first time watching one of your videos. I watched several other reviews of the Avata 2 and to tell you the truth most were very boring. Your video was more laid back and at times pretty funny (loved that Star Wars comment on that bike trail :) Looking forward to your future videos!
Hi Dustin, I've always watched your videos and greatly appreciate your work. Because of your reviews, I'm going to get the Avatar 2, but before I do is it possible you could do a long-distance landing and take-off test? I mean you could fly about 3 to 4 miles away land the drone maybe on a high-visibility landing pad, and then take off again. I would greatly appreciate a video like that and I'm sure many others who watch your video would like to see a long-distance landing and take-off test. 😊
I've been asked to do this a lot. It would need to be a well scouted area so no obstruction was maintained on ground between drone and pilot which is very hard to do. Otherwise it will immediately trigger RTH. I'll see what I can do but not sure on a timeline 🍻
You can set your RTH so the drone will hover instead of rise before it comes home. Do this when you spend your day under the trees. Change it back to normal when you are in the wide open. You need to do this so when you lose connection, the drone won't rise up to come home and since you have no connection, the red button won't stop it. If you lose connection, you want the drone to hover and then you can take a hike and hopefully reconnect in a few seconds and take back control. Ultimately when the battery gets too low, it will probably just land where it is.
Dustin that website is messed up for the raffle. I bought 1 ticket just to try before I buy more. It took it out of my bank account but on raffle pendings it doesn't show up.
I wanted to learn FPV. So order the bundle package with control too. can't wait to get here. after watch videos like this may it possible. I bought 2 drone in the pass the phantom 2, Mavic pro, Now Avata 2 waiting for santa to come now. Awesome Video thanks.
I guess you figured out already, just because the prop possible cracked or broken doesn’t mean it is. I have had that message pop up a couple times and my props are still good as new. I am removing all my props at the end of the day after flying cleaning all the props with no issues. The warning just says,”you could have a cracked or broken prop.” Doesn’t mean you do. It cannot tell. It just knows it not working correctly and that is one of the primary problems to check. ❤
Thay was just awesome! The warnings about FTH are valuable. Only use it when nothing is above the drone. Why no obstacle avoidance on this drone though?
Thanks! I agree, dji's first fpv drone had front OS which you could turn off. I'd imagine not on this one due to weight? I really thought the rear would do something though 🍻
Dustin I think I'll wait for the next generation so we hopefully can get more sensors. Btw visited Maui a few weeks back. Saw that little crater you used to always fly over on the way to Kihei, I think😅 had a great time definitely paradise.
Brilliant Dustin. What a great drone! I wanna up grade my Avata 1 to the 2 now lol😊 Loved how you flew through the truck, like a naughty boy, then asked lol😂 Looking forward to seeing your next video pal.
Bardwell has mentioned that it's not rear cameras he even tested it by putting his hand behind it to see how it would react, the rear sensors are more so to keep your height locked no matter how the quad is pitched.
Yep, they don't seem to do anything noticeable. Just would have been nice to slow or stop at rear obstacles. I could see it being a crash save if you did a 180 slide and it stopped at a tree 🍻
In watching all the time used making settings changes, is there a way to to put backup power on it to save battery while you do all these change stuff? Love that you cleared up a couple of my concerns, especially since mine will be here on the 21st of the most.
You are my top 1 favourite drone UA-camr keep going I will always be a big fan of you (I likely watch you dji drone reviews they are really good but I think the others also) i hope you release you next dji avatar 2 review soon (or another)
Showing onother nice drone that i cannot buy but thank you for this guy that it kinda give that pov if when you have it and this drone is realy nice,iwish i can get my hands on that thing
Hi Dustin. Thanks for that video. You make it easier to go through the functions. I’m yet to purchase one but I am curious as to which DJI model I should buy for video taping sceneries when I travel out of the country? Thanks again
Great review. SO it sounds like you can still achieve a lot with the motion controller without having to get the RC and learn to fly the drone in manual?
@@DustinDunnill great to know some of the reviews out there. Show flying the drone off of Cliff and diving down waterfalls etc. And wasn’t sure how realistic that is with the motion controller.
Can parts of the body be replaced if they do get damaged? Im v concerned about how easy the underside sensor got damaged. Having a printer im sure bumpers will be designed shortly if not already
Yes, but it may take a bit until DJI or 3rd parties have parts available. Usually not as easy to work on as your diy drones which is to be expected. Or you could send in to DJI for repair. Quick turnaround and very reasonable pricing in my experiences 🍻
Wow, what a cool video, thank you! I've been debating on picking one of these up... I think this pushed me over. This thing looks like a blast! What a gorgeous area too, love the arid landscape there. Do you mind sharing what state/area this was shot in?
I like it. It's high desert mountain living and takes a bit to get used to cold/hot seasons unlike Hawaii. I do miss the moderate climate of Hawaii mainly in the temp extremes here which are about 0 to 100° F. Hawaii seems to always be between 60 to 85 F 😂🍻
For everyone. 20 mph is 3 minutes per mile. For quick estimates 2 miles out--- you need minimum of 6 minutes to get back. So start picking a spot to land. Makes it easier to find the drone to sit down early.
Great video. Dang you beat the heck out of that bird! LOL. Care Refresh for the Avata 2 is awesome. $99 for 2 years & only $29 per incident deductible.
@@DustinDunnill Legend! I just ordered one so eagar to know how far to push it. I watched a few videos just now and most CE folk seem to get 2.5km to 4.5km before it auto RTH. Will be interesting to see your FCC test.🍻
Great review Dustin. You have me sold now I want one! Lol 😆 I have a question for you. Will the goggles 2 work with the Avata 2? If not maybe with an update. I want to possibly use goggles 2 as a ride along for someone to see what the pilot sees with the goggles 3.
Great practical demonstration of the type of flying that is possible with the Avata 2 using the motion controller 3. It would be great if you could do videos demonstration the sport mode, especially in open and mountainous terrain, with the focus of getting smooth cinematic 4K footage in great light :-)

Best review of the Avata 2, No complex transitions, music etc straight to the point 10/10
Im gonna buy the A2 because of this helpful review
Couldn't agree more. 👍🏻
For me, this is the only review that matters
Nope…..
I’m waiting for Dustin’s OVER WATER “Range Test”!
😂
My Wife purchased my first drone (Mavic-2 Pro) after accidentally watching one of Dustin’s videos.
It’s been an incredible hobby ever since…
Not a whole lot of water at my new place but lots of open spaces 🍻
just letting you know, i think Avata 2 is getting a lot of attention from the beginner fpv, including myself
@@DustinDunnill - A suggestion for your next range test. Just fly it out as far as it will go, then pick a safe & discreet place to set her down near a road for easy retrieval. No more lost birds! :)
@DirtyBird easier said than done when you don't know the exact range it will fly and trying to keep a straight line path 🍻
Love your video man! Unlike most other reviews, you are showing a lot of continuous footage which is great. Other reviews are only showing random short clips of footage which is annoying. I like seeing nonstop flight. This video made me place my order for the Avata 2.

From flying the avata to looking at the avata 2 I can tell a huge difference between the two 😱. Can't wait to get it
Definitely the most thorough review I’ve seen. Having watched others I was left unsure about the drone. Your review has me sold. Thanks!!
Excellent down to earth (literally haha) review. Keep it up! Mine arrives tomorrow, pretty excited.
Best video on the Avata 2 I’ve found… amazing insight on the flying experience, thanks! And you have an amazing property!
Getting mine in a week. Best review I’ve seen so far thanks for sharing!! I’m even more excited now after watching.

Just got mine today and charging for the mornin. Thanks much! Gonna be fun tomorrow!

Watched your video yesterday for the first time.
Purchased Avata 2 today, watched it again for a refresher.
Great video. Thank you!
im saveing for the avata 2 and im REALLY exited for it
Thanks to this video, I just ordered Avata 2! Thanks for the great review!

Always the best and most reliable reviews available thank you
I enjoy watching you flying the Avata 2 in your backyard lol
Always love these long review Dustin!
My Avata 2 is coming on Friday. I can’t wait! 😝
Btw I forgot to ask if there is any of these feature on the Avata 2 like Follow Me or POI like the other DJI Drones have?
None of those features. More of a hands on manual drone 🍻
You are really good at doing product reviews. God bless you always.
You are the only one who mentions it doesn't have a charger. great review, thank you!!!

Great review, I just bought the avata 2 thanks to your review.
You can set your RTH so the drone will hover instead of rise before it comes home. Do this when you spend your day under the trees. Change it back to normal when you are in the wide open.

Ultimately when the battery gets too low, it will probably just land where it is.
Great points. I should have mentioned the hover option in the review 🍻
I'm wanting someone to remove the prop-guards to see how much of the flight changes. 10/10, wish I had one.
Dustin that website is messed up for the raffle. I bought 1 ticket just to try before I buy more. It took it out of my bank account but on raffle pendings it doesn't show up.
You're the only one having this issue so far. It's likely a delay in showing up after entry. You should get email etc for confirmation 🍻

I guess you figured out already, just because the prop possible cracked or broken doesn’t mean it is. I have had that message pop up a couple times and my props are still good as new.

Yep, they don't seem to do anything noticeable. Just would have been nice to slow or stop at rear obstacles. I could see it being a crash save if you did a 180 slide and it stopped at a tree 🍻
Just wow❤ see this video from India and lost of love❤
In watching all the time used making settings changes, is there a way to to put backup power on it to save battery while you do all these change stuff? Love that you cleared up a couple of my concerns, especially since mine will be here on the 21st of the most.
You got to do a fly through the house to the outside and vice-versa that would be a cool shot
You are my top 1 favourite drone UA-camr keep going I will always be a big fan of you (I likely watch you dji drone reviews they are really good but I think the others also) i hope you release you next dji avatar 2 review soon (or another)
Showing onother nice drone that i cannot buy but thank you for this guy that it kinda give that pov if when you have it and this drone is realy nice,iwish i can get my hands on that thing
Great review and I'm in the draw!!! woop woop!!!
Hi Dustin. Thanks for that video. You make it easier to go through the functions. I’m yet to purchase one but I am curious as to which DJI model I should buy for video taping sceneries when I travel out of the country? Thanks again
They make many drones for different needs. Small, large with better image capabilities etc. Find the one that suits your specific needs 🍻
Great review. SO it sounds like you can still achieve a lot with the motion controller without having to get the RC and learn to fly the drone in manual?
Absolutely. Smoother, quicker and more precise with this generation 🍻
@@DustinDunnill great to know some of the reviews out there. Show flying the drone off of Cliff and diving down waterfalls etc. And wasn’t sure how realistic that is with the motion controller.
Definitely is more limited compared to manual but it's getting closer
@@DustinDunnill As long as I can dive off cliffs with it I'm happy :)
@silverfox74 thanks for the info. I’m already in the Sim. :)
Can parts of the body be replaced if they do get damaged? Im v concerned about how easy the underside sensor got damaged. Having a printer im sure bumpers will be designed shortly if not already
Yes, but it may take a bit until DJI or 3rd parties have parts available. Usually not as easy to work on as your diy drones which is to be expected. Or you could send in to DJI for repair. Quick turnaround and very reasonable pricing in my experiences 🍻
Wow, what a cool video, thank you! I've been debating on picking one of these up... I think this pushed me over. This thing looks like a blast! What a gorgeous area too, love the arid landscape there. Do you mind sharing what state/area this was shot in?
That Combo kit should come with 8 spare propellers seeing how it's an FPV drone! Come on DJI!
Agreed! 🍻
@@DustinDunnill remember how many spares came with the Air 3? Smh
I know, this one really needs more included for what type of drone it is.
@@DustinDunnill I meant to ask earlier, how you liking where you are now? And do you miss living in Hawaii?
I like it. It's high desert mountain living and takes a bit to get used to cold/hot seasons unlike Hawaii. I do miss the moderate climate of Hawaii mainly in the temp extremes here which are about 0 to 100° F. Hawaii seems to always be between 60 to 85 F 😂🍻
Remind me not to fly and crash over gravel so as to damage a sensor. Thanks for being the test monkey!
For everyone. 20 mph is 3 minutes per mile. For quick estimates
2 miles out--- you need minimum of 6 minutes to get back. So start picking a spot to land. Makes it easier to find the drone to sit down early.
You don’t have to apologize, we want them long and detailed.
Just send the crushed one if I don’t win the new one 😂
Always great !!!! Many thanks from Germany 😉😉😉
Is it good for absolute beginers? I would like to have fpv instead of mini 4 pro
I'd say yes. Take it slow and lean the control. Much easier to learn this way compared to most fpv drones 🍻
Great video. Dang you beat the heck out of that bird! LOL. Care Refresh for the Avata 2 is awesome. $99 for 2 years & only $29 per incident deductible.
Nice. Do you have a range test planned like with the Avata 1?
Yes 🍻
@@DustinDunnill Legend! I just ordered one so eagar to know how far to push it. I watched a few videos just now and most CE folk seem to get 2.5km to 4.5km before it auto RTH. Will be interesting to see your FCC test.🍻
super cool review!
Recently bought a used Mavic Mini for 165 from ebay to get back in to droning, but I already want the DJI AVATA 2 😁
Great review Dustin. You have me sold now I want one! Lol 😆 I have a question for you. Will the goggles 2 work with the Avata 2? If not maybe with an update. I want to possibly use goggles 2 as a ride along for someone to see what the pilot sees with the goggles 3.
Thanks! They don't work yet. Likely with an update later on as has happened in the past 🍻
forget about the drone I like that house bro! thang huge sweet crib
Great practical demonstration of the type of flying that is possible with the Avata 2 using the motion controller 3. It would be great if you could do videos demonstration the sport mode, especially in open and mountainous terrain, with the focus of getting smooth cinematic 4K footage in great light :-)
Great review! Sooo inclined to make that impulsive decision and pull the trigger on this thing haha
This would be good for areas with aggressive birds. Very tempted to buy.
