The drone is extremely fun. It's so much fun that it's easy to forget to take pictures and videos. The motion controller lets you get the feel for what FPV flying is all about. However, unlike true FPV drones that don't take the best cinematic shots and videos, the Avata allows you to take advantage of it's great camera and built-in stability software to get superb pictures and smooth video. Head tracking makes what you shoot look very professsional. You won't be disappointed choosing one of these combos.

The best flying experience

This is my second DJI drone, and it is far easier to fly than the other ones with the handheld controller. The video quality is simply amazing, and the flying experience is fairly simple with the motion 2 controller.  I find that the Integra headset is extremely comfortable to wear with the integrated battery in the strap. The weight balance is perfect on the head.  the drone is also very easy to fly for a beginner who has never flown any drone before.  if you’re sitting on the fence on this one, just go for it.

Have had all sorts of cheapie drones, all the way up to mavic 2 pro, mini 2, 3 and 4... and now the Avata. And have to say say this is an absolute blast! I really enjoy my other drones mainly for photography and some very limited video, but the Avata makes the entire video a shareable experience if you're bold enough to fly it a bit aggressively. That's the neat thing, the ducted propellers and ease of flight with the motion controller really do make you bold to try flying through gaps you would have never dared before. Once you're ready for the big leagues, get the FPV controller 2 and the world of freestyle opens up for you, but with the insanely useful feature of having a "panic stop" button where if you get yourself in a pickle, you press it and the Avata just stops cold and hovers in place. Something a traditional FPV drone can't do and just punishes you with a crash. Get extra batteries. Get the DJI insurance. Oh, and one other thing, if you use reading glasses at all, this Explorer combo is the one you want. Yes, the Pro-View sounds like it would be better with the adjustable diopters, but the wider field of view actually makes it worse to see the edges. I tried both and can wear the Integra headset with zero vision problems, especially along the edges. PLus, the added benefit of not needing a phone ttethered to the goggles on this one since it has built in GPS.

Great drone I need to buy another one.
One of the standout features of this drone is its camera quality. The high-resolution camera captures stunning aerial footage and crisp still images, allowing me to capture breathtaking moments from unique perspectives. Whether I'm exploring scenic landscapes or documenting special occasions, the drone's camera never fails to deliver exceptional results.
Furthermore, I've been impressed by the drone's flight performance. It handles with precision and agility, making it a joy to pilot. The intuitive controls and various flight modes also make it accessible to both beginners and experienced flyers alike.
Durability is another noteworthy aspect of this drone. Despite encountering some minor collisions and rough landings, the drone has remained resilient and undamaged, showcasing its robust build quality.
Overall, I couldn't be more satisfied with my purchase of the [insert drone model]. It has quickly become an indispensable tool for my aerial photography and videography endeavors. In fact, I'm so impressed that I'm seriously considering purchasing another one to expand my capabilities even further. If you're in the market for a top-notch drone, look no further than this one. Highly recommended!

This drone is fun! I'm still practicing and have not switched off the governor yet as I'm still a novice flying FPV. It truly does feel like your piloting a craft with the goggles on and is definitely a hobby I will look more into.

This is my first FPV style drone and I’ve owned over eight DJI camera drones. The Pros: it’s very fun to fly once you’ve figured out Motion 2 controller and the FPV RC2. Acro mode takes lots of practice and I recommend a huge open field on those first few practice flights. The camera is ok at best and the battery life is acceptable. Integra goggles are great.
Cons: While using the motion controller , the top speed is just a little too slow. USB & SD card location hookup is an absolute disaster. Does not fly very well even under the lightest wind conditions . Acro mode flight simulator app is not that great. DJI needs to apply some sort of mode between Acro & sport to make the transition process to Acro a little more painless. Acro mode is a different animal and I believe many Avata owners struggle with the learning curve.
Final thoughts : it’s a fun little fpv drone but it’s a little flawed I think. I would pay the extra cash and get the Avata 2 instead.

Excellent drone, definitely a must for first time flyers. I love how it handles and is almost automatic with the fly stick instead of the controller. Battery doesn’t last that long so you need to buy more. But it is worthwhile to get it.

Love it, if you have been thinking about purchasing but are worried that it won't be for you, so you decided to read the comments to persuade you to buy, BUY IT!!! Make sure you get more batteries because you'll regret the waiting during charging.
