Dajiang Avata 2 evaluation: newly added one button flying drone, with its own paddle to ensure zero flight experience

In the summer of 2022, Dajiang launched a flight experience UAV named DJI Avata, which attracted many aerial photography and flight enthusiasts. Now, its upgraded version, DJI Avata 2, has been released. DJI Avata 2 has significantly improved in terms of image system, endurance performance, visual perception, image transmission system, functionality and experience. At the same time, it has brought a new "one touch fly" function. At the same time, it is still a flight experience UAV with paddle protection and zero basic experience. Today, we will bring you a detailed evaluation and introduction of DJI Avata 2.

We got the DJI Avata 2 Changfei Kit (three battery version), including the DJI Avata 2 aircraft, DJI flying glasses 3, DJI through rocker 3, batteries × 3, two-way charging steward, single shoulder storage bag and other accessories. Among them, DJI flying glasses 3 and DJI through rocker 3 are also new products that come to users with DJI Avata 2. DJI flight glasses 3 can also be adapted DJI Air 3 and DJI Mini 4 Pro With DJI through rocker 3, DJI RC 2 or DJI RC-N2 remote control, the UAV can be controlled to achieve an immersive flight experience.

At present, DJI Avata 2 is divided into two versions: Changfei package (single battery version) and Changfei package (three battery version, with one two-way charging butler, two batteries and one backpack added on the basis of the single battery version). The price is 5988 yuan and 6988 yuan respectively. DJI flight glasses 3 and DJI through rocker 3 can be purchased separately at a price of 3499 yuan and 599 yuan respectively.

Before starting the evaluation, let's take a look at the core function configuration comparison between DJI Avata 2 and the previous generation product:

Through the comparison table, we can more intuitively see the upgrading points of core functions and configurations of DJI Avata 2 compared with the previous generation products. Next, we will officially begin the evaluation and introduction of DJI Avata 2.

Appearance: aircraft details upgrade

First, let's start with the appearance. Compared with the previous generation product, the overall shape of the DJI Avata 2 is roughly the same in the aircraft itself, but the details have evolved significantly. In terms of color matching, the design is still all black, and it still has an integrated propeller protection design. Therefore, if the DJI Avata 2 slightly touches other objects during flight, in fact, it will not fall directly, but will adjust its flight attitude to continue flying. Of course, if the collision force is relatively large, the probability of falling will be greatly increased.

Blade and integrated blade protection cover of DJI Avata 2

Compared with the previous generation, the fuselage structure of DJI Avata 2 has slightly changed. Its fuselage is longer and thinner, and the previous generation is shorter and thicker. The battery part also adopts a more slender design, so it is not universal with the previous generation of batteries. The blade design has been changed from five blades of the previous generation to three blades of the current generation, and the blades also have more obvious radians. Due to the optimization of detail design, the flight noise of DJI Avata 2 has been reduced. The current flight noise is about 81dB, which is equivalent to that of DJI Air 3.

Demonstration of anti tortoise mode

In addition, once the DJI Avata 2 falls to the ground due to severe collision, and the posture is "belly up", and it is not convenient for us to go to it to turn it over, we can use the anti tortoise mode. After the anti tortoise mode is enabled, the two propellers on one side of the DJI Avata 2 will rotate at a high speed together, generating thrust to flip the "belly up" DJI Avata 2 to a normal attitude, so that the user can operate the aircraft to take off again directly.

Camera of DJI Avata 2

Some video specifications of DJI Avata 2

DJI Avata 2 adopts a 1/1.3 inch CMOS sensor design, which is the same as the sensor specifications of the wide angle camera of Air 3, Mini 4 Pro and other UAV products. It supports video specifications up to 4K 60P HDR and supports 10bit D-Log M color mode, which is a significant improvement over the image system of the previous generation. In terms of perspective, DJI Avata 2 still provides 155 ° ultra wide angle flight view, so it can bring closer visual impact to users and bring better and more exciting shooting experience. DJI Avata 2 can properly meet the needs of professional users in terms of shooting straight out videos and post production and color matching.

Bottom view ToF of DJI Avata 2

Compared with the previous generation product, which only has downward vision, DJI Avata 2 adopts a new fisheye camera design, so it can take care of both backward and downward vision, increase the scope of visual positioning, and significantly improve the flight safety of the product. In addition, the newly added one touch fly function can experience 180 ° drift, and part of the fly backward movement will occur. Therefore, the rear vision can also make the DJI Avata 2 complete the movement more safely.

Interface and card slot of DJI Avata 2

The interface and card slot of the DJI Avata 2 are designed on the side of the fuselage at the bottom, and the protective cover design is still adopted. The USB Type-C interface of the fuselage supports the PD fast charging protocol, and users can quickly charge the battery through the fuselage.

Battery of DJI Avata 2

Bi directional charging steward of DJI Avata 2

Because we got the DJI Avata 2 Changfei kit (three battery version), it contains three batteries and a two-way charging steward. The new battery is more slender than that of the previous generation, and can also provide a maximum of 23 minutes of battery life. The previous generation has a maximum of 18 minutes of battery life, so we can use a battery to have a longer experience time. The two-way charging manager also supports fast charging, and can be used as a charging bank in daily life.

DJI Avata 2 has 46GB body storage

Compared with the previous generation, DJI Avata 2 has a larger body storage, and the current body storage space is 46GB. If you forget to bring a memory card when you go out, you can record a lot of materials using the fuselage memory.

DJI Avata 2 supports Wi Fi fast connection and fast transmission

DJI Avata 2 supports Wi Fi fast connection and fast transmission, so we can quickly connect to DJI Avata 2 through mobile phones, and quickly capture our content download Go to the mobile phone for subsequent processing. Since Dajiang has its own Changpian APP, we can download the captured materials to our mobile phones and process them through the vast number of smart clip templates of Changpian APP, so that we can directly obtain the films we like.

Appearance: new flying glasses 3 and through rocker 3

Next, let's take a look at the most important parts of DJI Avata 2 besides the aircraft itself, namely, DJI flying glasses 3 and DJI crossing rocker 3.

Like the previous generation of products, DJI Avata 2 needs to be matched with DJI flight glasses 3 to watch the flight picture, providing a high-quality immersive flight experience. DJI flight glasses 3 are equipped with DJI O4 image transmission system. DJI O4 image transmission system is the latest image transmission system among the current consumer UAVs in Dajiang. It supports the image transmission distance of up to 13 kilometers and the image transmission rate of up to 60 Mbps, allowing users to fully experience the pleasure of flying.

The power display part is designed at the front of the flying glasses

DJI flight glasses 3 also have very obvious design differences compared with the previous generation of flight glasses. The weight of DJI flying glasses 3 is heavier than that of the previous generation, because the battery of the glasses is designed inside, in the device that ties the headband behind the head, and the power transmission cable is hidden in the headband. After wearing glasses, we can tighten the back of the head fastening device, so that we can fix the DJI flight glasses 3 on our heads. Now, when we wear DJI flying glasses 3, we don't need to connect the cables and external batteries separately. The battery life of DJI flight glasses 3 is 3 hours, so even if all three batteries of DJI Avata 2 fly to power failure, there is no need to worry about the power failure of flight glasses.

Integrated forehead support of DJI flying glasses 3

In terms of wearing feeling, DJI flying glasses 3 have a better feeling than the previous generation. In addition to better fixation and optimization of the whole glasses, an integrated forehead rest is also designed, so that the glasses can better fit our forehead and reduce the wearing pressure around the eye socket and on the bridge of the nose. If the height of the forehead support is not enough, an additional forehead support enhancement pad is included in the package, which can be used according to your own needs. In addition, the design around the eye socket has been optimized, making the wearer feel more comfortable, reducing the pressure on the surrounding skin and the bridge of the nose.

DJI flight glasses 3 have pupillary distance adjustment and diopter adjustment functions

Knob used for adjustment

DJI flight glasses 3 retain the pupillary distance adjustment and diopter adjustment functions of the previous generation of flight glasses. For different users, the pupil distance is different, so we can move left and right through the knob to change the lens distance of DJI flight glasses 3 to adapt to the pupil distance of users. If the user's eye vision is normal, the diopter adjustment can be set at 0. If the user is near sighted or far sighted, the diopter can be adjusted by rotating the knob, so that we do not need to wear our own glasses alone. The default diopter adjustment lens on DJI flight glasses 3 supports diopter adjustment from hyperopia 200 degrees to myopia 600 degrees. In addition, there are additional lenses in the accessories, which can be adapted to myopia users from 0 degrees to 800 degrees.

Switching between live view window and image transmission (the display effect of DJI flying glasses 3 is directly captured by mobile phone)

Binocular front camera on DJI flying glasses 3

The DJI flight glasses 3 are designed with a binocular front camera and a new function "live view". We can turn on or off the "live view window" function by double clicking the knob (which can be pressed) on the side of the DJI through the rocker 3. After turning on, the image of DJI flying glasses 3 will switch from the image of the aircraft to the image displayed by the binocular front camera on the glasses, allowing us to quickly view the user's field of vision. In this way, even if we do not take off the DJI flying glasses 3, we can see the immediate vision directly when the aircraft takes off, lands or other special circumstances, which is very convenient and practical.

Head Tracking Mode Menu

Head tracking mode

DJI Avata 2 inherits the head tracking function of the previous generation. The principle of the head tracking function is that the UAV can change synchronously with the DJI flying glasses 3, so that users can turn their heads to view the perspective of other angles and directions, making our experience more excellent, just like watching in the real air.

Connect the mobile phone with the DJI flying glasses 3 through Wi Fi

When using, we can set the menu and adjust the function through the rocker and keys of DJI flying glasses 3. The operation logic is very simple, and new users can quickly get started. In addition, we can also connect the mobile phone with the DJI flight glasses 3 through USB Type-C cable or Wi Fi, so that other users can watch the flight picture in real time through the mobile phone screen when we fly. When activating with DJI Avata 2 for the first time, or when updating firmware, you need to connect to the DJI Fly APP on your phone.

Body feeling operation of DJI through rocker 3

Then the DJI passes through rocker 3. Through the rocker 3, the user can control the DJI Avata 2 for flight and shooting experience by simply pressing keys and turning the wrist. Because of this accessory, DJI Avata 2 allows users to fly and shoot on a zero basis. Of course, for some advanced users, you can also control DJI Avata 2 through the DJI FPV remote control 3 at the beginning of the article for some advanced shooting experience.

Control the flying direction of DJI Avata 2 through the white circle

When we control the flight of DJI Avata 2 by passing DJI through rocker 3 in a somatosensory operation mode, a "white circle", commonly known as a small white dot, will appear in the middle of the screen of DJI flying glasses 3. We can dynamically control the orientation of small white dots through DJI passing through rocker 3 to control the aircraft. To put it bluntly, the DJI Avata 2 will fly towards where the direction of the white dot changes, and then the flight speed can be controlled by the throttle trigger.

Tips for return point

DJI Avata 2 is still designed with a return point prompt function. If we see the word "H" in the flight picture, it is the takeoff point of the aircraft, which is the final return point. If we are very selfless and lose our way during the flight, we can change the direction of the aircraft through the DJI through the rocker 3 to find the word "H". Flying towards here can bring DJI Avata 2 back to us. Of course, you can also use the one button homing function to make the aircraft return automatically. Don't forget to set the homing altitude (not more than 120 meters) in advance according to the flight environment.

DJI through rocker 3 is also the latest accessory. Compared with the previous generation of products, the size of DJI through rocker 3 is significantly smaller, equivalent to about 2/3 of the original size, much lighter in weight, lighter and more portable overall, and more comfortable to hold. DJI traversing rocker 3 retains the accelerator trigger (two-stage accelerator design), knob, rocker and one key brake stop button, which is convenient for users to operate in all aspects. The one button brake button gives users greater security protection. If a novice user feels that the situation is not good, he can directly press the button, so that the DJI Avata 2 will directly brake and hover in the air.

Example of Virtual Laser Pen

Compared with the previous generation of products, the combination of DJI through rocker 3 and DJI flying glasses 3 also has a new control function "virtual laser pen". After we activate DJI Avata 2, one of the settings is to turn on the "virtual laser pen" function and related tutorials, learn and play tutorials, and then we can experience this function. The "virtual laser pen" is actually to change the DJI through rocker 3 into a laser pen for adjusting the menu and function settings. It can be used to change the menu and function settings with other keys on the DJI through rocker 3. The experience of this new function is very good, because after we wear glasses, this new function can enable new users to experience a simpler, more intuitive operation mode and get started more quickly.

Experience: One touch flying has strong practicability and excellent aircraft experience

Next, let's talk about the flight experience and shooting experience of DJI Avata 2.

The biggest function improvement of DJI Avata 2 is "flying with one touch". In the past, if users want to use aircraft to complete high and cool pictures, they need very high operating skills. For example, advanced users use FPV remote control to accurately hit the bar with two fingers. It is impossible for ordinary users to use through the rocker to perform somatosensory operation, while it is too difficult for novices and ordinary users to use the FPV remote controller to operate the aircraft, resulting in a sharp increase in the risk of aircraft explosion. Now, users only need to turn on the "one button fly fly" function and use it with the DJI through rocker 3 to complete the difficult fly fly move to meet more film production needs.

One touch fly option

The "one touch fly" function includes three actions, one touch flip, one touch side flip and one touch 180 ° drift. Through the above video, we can see the operation of the three actions, aircraft status and the flower flying action picture after the function is turned on. If you want to implement these actions by yourself, you need to practice them for a long time, and it is inevitable that the machine will explode due to mistakes. Now you just need to simply open the function, you can easily complete the shooting of Huafei action, bring yourself a more exciting experience, and shoot more exciting video pictures. When these pictures are shared on the social platform, they will become the most beautiful ones again.

DJI Avata 2 has two stabilization modes: super stabilization and horizon stabilization

DJI Avata 2 is a flight experience UAV, but the flight experience and pictures it brings are full of excitement. Different from the ordinary consumer UAV, the DJI Avata 2 brings a better sense of speed, and when turning, it will have a tilt image similar to that of an aircraft (if you do not want to tilt the horizon, you can choose the horizon stabilization mode). Because the aircraft is very small, and equipped with an integrated blade protective cover and one button brake function, it can give users a better sense of security. Users can also have a more comfortable flight and shooting experience. At the same time, they can also more boldly shuttle in a narrow space, or carry out maneuverable flight with a large height difference. In a word, DJI Avata 2 with the function of "one touch fly" can bring very exciting and dynamic pictures, which are also the most beautiful pictures published on the social platform.

Flight experience UAV most suitable for ordinary user experience

So far, our evaluation and introduction of DJI Avata 2 has come to an end. From the overall experience, DJI Avata 2 has better experience, whether it is the aircraft itself, or the matching DJI flying glasses 3 and DJI through the rocker 3. Basically, all the people who tested with the essayist have only one word to describe the feeling after the experience.

For new users, DJI Avata 2 is worth buying. DJI Avata 2 can bring a new feeling to users who have experienced ordinary consumer UAVs or users who have not experienced UAVs. Both the very exciting viewing experience brought by DJI flying glasses 3 and the somatosensory operation experience brought by DJI through rocker 3, which can be quickly mastered with zero foundation, can make novice users more comfortable to experience the fun brought by flying and exciting pictures. Moreover, the video shot by DJI Avata 2 is completely different from that of ordinary consumer UAVs, which makes it more enjoyable to watch. After shooting, it can also be directly output into films through the template of Dajiang's own Changpian APP, so that sharing to the social platform can become the most beautiful person.

DJI Avata 2

For old users who have experienced DJI Avata or DJI FPV users, DJI Avata 2 brings more details and experience. For example, the functions and designs of the "live view window", "virtual laser pen", the DJI flying glasses 3 of the integrated forehead care and the smaller DJI through the rocker 3 allow us to have a better experience when using them, and at the same time, some design and operation slots of the previous generation of products have been perfectly corrected. Of course, the biggest surprise for old users is the new function "one touch fly", which allows ordinary users to simply complete the fly through rocker 3 in the process of exciting flight, so that the degree of video stimulation can be improved qualitatively. These improvements make old users more willing to spend time to experience the new fun of DJI Avata 2 flying and shooting. For old users, it is more worthwhile to upgrade and purchase DJI Avata 2.

Finally, whether new users choose to purchase or old users upgrade, the author highly recommends the DJI Avata 2 Changfei package (three battery version), so that you can experience the exciting flight and shooting more thoroughly during a trip. If it is equipped with DJI Power 1000 or DJI Power 500 outdoor power supply, it can quickly replenish power while flying, so that the experience time can be fully extended.
