I CUT the DJI Avata 2 Prop Guards... You Won't Believe What Happened!
Ғылым және технология
The Dji Avata 2 is a very versatile drone, but it's lacking a bit in the acrobatic department, let's try fixing that by cutting the propeller guards!

U dont need to have dji care refresh to send back a dji to the factory for repair. I have buyed a dji fpv on Amazon to à guy but there was a bugg on the gimball. Without dji care refresh i send my drone to them and they replace mine by a brand new for 50 dollars

Dji should work on a hybrid FPV drone that would allow you to either use it as a whoop or as a regular FPV drone. They just need to find a way to take off the prop guards and maybe extend the arms. I think it´s totally doable.

That thing rips 😂 never thought an avata could do an inverted yaw
A while back I converted just about all my whoops to toothpick drones. Once you feel how much better quads fly without ducts and slightly larger props, you dont want any whoops, unless you need it for inside or around people. Also much more silent, efficiency and faster. Great test.

Yeah. I always think it is strange to see tiny cinewhoop reviews and all the flying is outdoors. The only prop guarded drones I have are tiny whoops, a pavo pico for indoors and close to people and a full size cinewhoop. And even one of my 75 mm tiny whoops I converted to ductless.
YOU DID WHAT? well... looks like it flys nice 😂😂😂

On the old one it was feasible, on this avata 2 would have to rework the whole canopy and it's not 3d fdm printable I believe, I don't know if it makes sense to invest the time into doing it, because it would need to be injection molded and to do that you need market scale, and I don't think many people are ready to disassemble this crime in user right repairability drone

Hi Rimzler, I just read you were looking for a interesting project. Something different. For the past few weeks I am planing on CAD, 3D printing. And soon will be CNCing my own frame for: A stereo 3D analog drone. Meaning a goggle with two receivers. Two displays and a drone with two cameras and two vtx. I already did some testing with a prototype. And it is amazing how much detail the brain renders when you can see in 3D you can see all the branches, everything. I hope that the final form is a good quad that just has 3D cameras. Would you be interested to try it out some time. There would be a solution to sheep it to you for sure ( and return of course, I am a private person and don’t have a lot of resources) Greetings, Luki from Germany

This drone is pretty good for a lot of scenarios where you would use an action camera FPV, like real estate, location and live events, i even chased cars with it, and in a live setting you have the drone in the air and you can wait for the cars to arrive, it allows me to get a lot more done! But it's not super reliable when windy and when diving stuff

You're a brave man cutting into that quad copter like that lol

Was literally considering this with my avata 1 last night
May I recommend just modding it by 3D printing a new center housing that has a built-in mount for 3D-party prop guards? You do not have to worry about destroying any of the internals then lol.

Haha hillarious. The bitrate seemed to take a beating from the antenna abuse but the weight savings and performance is great. Would be cool to see a kit released to get the weight down to the absolute minimum on the whole frame. 😄👍🏻

grazie, sei il numero 1! Forse a questo punto conviene prima passare con il saldatore seguendo il filo e poi dopo aver tolto l'antenna tagliare le 2 parti. Credo che a questo punto cambiare le eliche (ma con quali altre!??) possa farlo volare meglio ancora

how if you add wings to minimalize the shake/vibration.. imho
Very cool! I see in another comment that the weight was cut by 30 grams. I wonder if possibly more weight could be shed - especially for those of us in 250 gram max regions. Update: AUW is 377 grams - might be way too much to shed.
does it fly like a 5 inch not the speed but the maneuver handling?
