DJI Air 3 Obstacle Avoidance Test: Crash or Conquer?

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

In this Active Track demo, we take the DJI Air 3 out for a crash course in obstacle avoidance! Can this drone conquer or crash when it comes to avoiding obstacles? If you're looking to get a taste for how the DJI Air 3 performs regarding obstacle avoidance, then watch this video! I put this drone through its paces around obstacles and see how it fares.

    This DJI Air 3 first flight review happened during a pretty high wind day with guests up to 37 mph; these are perfect conditions to test this drone and see if it flies as well as the DJI Air 2S and show you some of the cool features you are getting with this new DJI Drone: kzread.info/dash/bejne/pHiB2NGYiNmWY5s.html

    Just got one of these. Gave it this type of test only very simple environment...one tree in a field. A large pine with its first own at about 6 feet off the ground. Walked under the tree and out the other side. The drone failed completely. Obstacle avoidance on bypass, normal setting. Disappointing.

    Tip: Activetrack and obstacle avoidance works better with the 1x lens because with the 3x the drone is trying harder to keep the subject in the frame and is further away. 1x is best for activetrack when going fast since 3x can sometimes result in obstacle avoidance not working as intended.

    Works great. Except is had one problem. It's a gimmick. Nobody actually uses active-track. Soon you put it at distance to have the landscape in view it doesn't work anymore. They all fly their DJI drone manually to get the shots they want. It would be much better if DJI didn't cripple their products by not adding follow-me. That's GPS. Not optical. I would say that the Mini 2 with Litchi or Maven is the more useful hiker/biker drone. It may not have obstacle avoidance and APAS. But you're not going to risk a $1000 drone on a bike tour to begin with. You fly it away from hazards. Who wants to see trees closeup? If you have it fly that close get a 360 camera on a (invisible) stick.
