And finally, there’s 20GB of internal storage space available, which means you have the freedom and spontaneity to get creative even without a microSD card installed in the onboard drive. 3. Drone footage is stabilized through DJI’s flagship tech If only there was some way to put some of those smarts into an FPV drone, make it durable and have it all ready to fly right out of the box. Wouldn’t that be the perfect beginner FPV drone?

Once the batteries had recharged, which took slightly more than nine hours for the three batteries, about 3 hours each, it was time to test the use of the goggles. Again with the spotter at the ready, I used the Motion Controller to navigate through a gate and through the garden; the live view feed and the over-enthusiastic spotter guided me through the environment without issue. This is like playing a VR computer game rather than being outside in the real world. Sport (S) Mode: A new hybrid blend of M and N mode, S mode offers some of the dynamic movement capabilities that come with M mode along with some of the key safety features of N mode. S mode is the middle step between the three modes and was developed to give pilots more room to explore their skills as they get accustomed to the drone.The 5.1 GHz frequency band is currently banned in China and Thailand. For details, please refer to local laws and regulations.

The drone is 410 grams, which is significantly lighter than the 795g DJI FPV. The drone has an Infrared Sensing System and two downward-facing sensors for the Downward Vision System. However, it does not have any forward sensors, which the DJI FPV had. DJI Avata Design Images are captured in JPEG format for stills and MP4 for video, although a plus point here is that you can capture in standard or D-Cinelike colour profiles. What is a step up is the ability to capture video at 150MB/s, which is high for this type of camera.

But the safety features that have impressed us the most is that even at its small size, DJI Avata includes the GEO 2.0 geofencing system that advises pilots of airspace restrictions and potential hazards, and prevents the drone from straying into high-risk locations, such as airports. That’s not all. DJI Avata also features DJI’s AirSense ADS-B receiver system that warns drone pilots when airplanes or helicopters are nearby, and broadcasts DJI’s AeroScope signal to help authorities monitor airborne drones in sensitive locations. DJI Avata is compatible with DJI Goggles 2, DJI Goggles Integra, DJI FPV Goggles V2, DJI FPV Remote Controller 2, DJI RC Motion 2, and the DJI Motion Controller.
