  • Had to subscribe for such great mix of great sense of humour and great demo + info, brilliant keep going! Great to show the bloopers! =) Just re penetration (distance) test, did you use Focus Mode in case that helps and ideally have antennas probably positioned more consistently pointing in same direction always during entire test without car blocking. it looks like googles were sitting on the box behind windshield. Also night camera test ideally have a test with exact same settings for comparison + one with auto to show the difference/advantage in both manual vs auto conditions for consistency. Otherwise awesome (cool car btw. :D ). Btw. isn't it perhaps better for connectivity to look with googles more in the direction/level where you're flying? (I only started this week with Avata 2 and noticed it's tempting to look downwards into the ground but probably not ideal and perhaps can make a difference towards end of bandwidth connectivity.

  • I love my Avata 2, it's definitely an upgrade. My only negative about the avata 2 is that it doesn't seem as durable as the first one and you cant self repair it. The Avata 1 you could replace prop guard and frame but the Avata 2 it doesn't seem possible. I had to purchase care refresh for Avata 2 so I can feel more comfortable when flying it. Other then that everything about the avata 2 is awesome. Love your videos ken keep it up

But i still love it and in many ways a definite upgrade. @@saintkenny9296

    • First off good for him!!! Exciting to see young kids making money early!! Hey bud! In order to earn money yourself, you need to be 16. The one exception would be to can work under someone (like mom) with a part 107 and you can serve as the Remote Pilot in Command. The money would have to flow through your mom or whomever has the 107. Good luck!

  • I am loving my new Avata 2. Just received the new Controller 3 and it is defiantly an upgrade in flying than the OG Avata! Flying in Manual Mode Fun in the wind is best with the Avata 2. The Motion Lotion Controller just doesn't do as well. I really hope DJI offers a better option soon regarding that rubber floppy seal around your face which to me is very infuriating to say the least. I can only imagine in the summertime with that glued to your face and feeling the molded plastic right behind it. I need some cushion DJI or some friendly 3rd party person to make the Goggles 3 more comfy. Wish the strap was a little bigger for my "Big Head", but it is what it is. I have 2 sets of Ken Dobo's "Ribbed for Your Pleasure" guards on the way. Ken is the only one that has any guards for the new Avata 2! Thank You, Sir!
