I like it. Shorts are kind of a pain to deal with, so I much prefer a regular video the length of a short

No. I don’t like how KZread is turning into TikTok.

Good to know! Appreciate the feedback! 🙏

Why is the audio quality so bad even though there is a microphone right in front of him?

@Alvenes

Ай бұрын

Vjeran is very talented and I really enjoy his videos. But here I suspect he mixed the on camera mic with the external mic in the timeline. Can happen to the best.

Great video, but maybe a little too short. I don’t know what it lacked, but I was expecting more infos, especially for those kind of niche tech

@TheVerge

Ай бұрын

Much appreciated!

Thanks. It does have the sensors to avoid obstacles? can restert/fly after falling in water?

Good enough to make me look more into the A2!

Not too much on the image quality - does it seem pretty much the same as the Avata 1?

is there an indepth video coming soon?

Hi there. Is a separate software needed to do the gyro data stabilization? Or is it a toggle switch in the DJI software? Thanks!

@TheVerge

Ай бұрын

Separate. GyroFlow is the one I use. The only thing you need to do on the drone is turn off EIS & set lens width to "wide".

So it doesn’t have a vertical option? You have to edit to get vertical?

Does avata 2 have obstacle sensors like dji mini 4 pro? Going to get my first drone so which would be better for general shots. Image quality looks same to mini 4 pro due to same sensor being used. Will there be any simulation available for avata 2 or I should directly start learning with actual drone with avata 2

@TheVerge

Ай бұрын

No obstacle avoidance sensors here, just positioning sensors which help with landing. The image is comparable with the Mini 4 Pro in terms of clarity, color and such,, but aperture here is f/2.8 so will naturally introduce more noise in low light conditions. Are you looking to capture video or photos? (This is also not a 3-axis gimbal, so you won't get footage like your regular cinematic drone) As far as simulations. I am not sure, but don't think you need an Avata 2 specific sim. Most other ones will teach you what you need to know. Hope this helps!

Interesting as ever Vjeran, thanks. I prefer longer videos - it feels like The Verge puts out a lot less ~10 minute content these days and I miss that and benefiting from the expertise of you all. What about doing a short + a longer video for things? Points I might've been interested in but probably aren't possible to cover in something this length: - comparison with Mavic - comparison with regular FPV quadcopter - how robust is it? - can you change the camera direction? .

Good review, but definitely too short. Would've liked more coverage of the goggles and controller, specifically a demonstration of what he was talking about w/r/t not being able to see in the corner of the screen.

where is the onboard SD card located? Is it in the same stubborn place as the AV1?

@TheVerge

Ай бұрын

Great question! And it is the VERY first thing I've noticed when I unboxed it. Good news - it is located on the side of the body, on a flat surface between the two props and it is super accessible! The USB-C port is also there. The Avata 1 placement was truly unacceptable.

At the time the Goggles 2 and Controller 2 are not compatible. Supposed to change in a month or so. I don't know if it will be both the Controller 2 and the Goggles 2 or just the Goggles 2, v2 and integra?

@TheVerge

Ай бұрын

Goggles should all work, tbd on the RC & MC. Currently, only the ones work.

Dang I like the video, informative. Tbh short is good for Shorts. His in depth reviews of drones are always good, so longer is preferred

Keep shorts on shorts please. I much prefer 10 minute videos.

Too short for me. I feel this is to appease the algorithm. It sometimes makes me think that the algorithm is content creators version of shareholders…trying to please them is not always in the best interests of the customer. A ‘Short’ should be the short version of a video.

Hi! with RC3 in manual mode, could you dive & make flips by your own? Thaks!

@TheVerge

Ай бұрын

Yup. No limits in M mode. However there is a warning on the app about it though. I didn't force it as a freestyle drone, but did get a few manual flips and dives in. It handles dives better than Avata 1, but you'll still feel some turbulence (which is to be expected).

How is the speed limit, if that's even a thing with these drones, measured, cause I'm not finding anything on the Adorama link in the video.

@TheVerge

Ай бұрын

Sport mode is slightly faster than before (35mph vs 31mph), but normal (17mph) & manual (60mph) are all the same as Avata 1.

Want more of the longer analysis

Are the new goggles compatible with the mini 3 pro?

Wait...the old remotes don't work? DAMNIT! I just bought one to practice on the Sims before buying the Avata, now the 2 is out and I was hoping to get that. Did I just lose out on 300 bucks for that controller?

I'm not much invested into drones but I keep an eye on news. This short version gave me what i needed to know. Always avoided Verge's long videos that aren't about smartphones. Loved this legnth.

Why do they sell it as drone only if nothing else is compatible?

More please!

I think this would work great as a KZread short cutdown, but for a main video, I'd appreciate a more in-depth look

Very cool

Short is great!

I feel like 2:30 is too short for a review. It's fine as teaser content on other social media, but if I'm on KZread, I'm looking for 5+ minute videos for an "Everything you need to know" quick summary with 10+ minute for a full review.

Price???

A little too short a weirdly bad audio?? Cool drone though, I want one!

I found this drone on the internet for 16 bucks might gonna buy it The video seems pretty slick on this thing with the small sise bye the way

Cool

I like that it was short, but 2:30 is too short. I'm sure it will have an audience, but Verges audience, I think, is not it. Maybe 4-7 minutes if you're going short.

Too short the audio is mid and vjeran needs more screen/audio time, I'm bummed not seeing an indepth video about this new avata, as I was fown to buy s couple if they sre truly capable this time around and not first gen shor.

dont mind the length but the audio is not good

Too short. I need more details for a product review to know if I should make a purchase.

Why don’t you include it’s cost?

No becca? Sad day 😢

It’s it just as loud?

@TheVerge

Ай бұрын

Great question! It is still a loud buzzy drone, but it is definitely less pitchy, which is great news. I haven't done a side by side, but those were my very first impressions.

Too short

in depth please

I liked it. Thanks!

Great but too short!

Too short! Felt like it was over before it started. I don’t feel compelled to buy this even though I was interested in the first Avata

Short videos are fine, but I do feel like I don’t get much “entertainment” from the video. I can’t quite nail it down, but maybe it just felt too simple.

I liked this, but the audio is bad.

The video was too short. For someone who has no clue about the previous drone and has no idea about this product. I would need to watch another video to understand the product. Not something I expect from the Verge

I mean, it wasn’t really everything I needed to know.. I needed a proper drone pilot to really put it through its paces.

+1 on the vertical filming ugh

Yeah, too short would certainly prefer longer.

Avata kedavra

Too short :) more details please :)

Too short for brand new dji avata 2

The SD cards I’ve used in the past were only 32 gig. So I won’t be buying any for the DJI Avata 2. 46 is plenty

Too short. Prefer the longer, more in-depth reviews

Video really too short... We want in depth video

Little too short! It felt like a product advert more than a review.

Too short, proper reviews are more valuable in my opinion.

To short but thx

Enjoying the shorter format

Very on point review. Liked the new short video format.

Too short for me.

46 Gigabits??? that equates to 5.75 Gigabytes. Not impressive at all. but if you reverse 46 to 64 and say "GigaBytes" then ... good. But what is it?

Feed my family for a few months or get one of those.... hmmm.

u can use old controller and goggles

I say a bit too short.

A little too short!

Toooooo short😢

too short; over too soon!

Too short, and the audio sounds bad.

Waaaay too short

Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay too short. "Everything you need to know" is misleading! You hardly touched on the subject!

Ugh. Not expensive enough.

Too short to be meaningful

What has happened to the verge.... 2 min product reviews and plenty of 1+ hour podcasts... I did not subscribe for podcasts!

What a bad review.
