DJI Avata 360 - Rumours, leaks, gossip and general discussion

[LE60LAD]

thats the big question - UK1 or C1 ?? MMM though I am not sure if that is as much of an issue as people seem to make out.

@LE60LAD

C1

Gotta be UK1 if you believe the rules

UK class marks

Any new model of drone or model aircraft placed on the market from 1 January 2026 must have a UK class mark.

Who did you order from mines DJI and left the Netherlands yesterday and said next Wednesday which by every parcel from DJI it be here by the weekend we’ll I’m hoping

[nxsynjs]

It’ll be interesting to see if UK1=Easa Class 1(C1) as it might give us a clue as to what happens to C label drones post 2027

But was this drone not submitted in like Dec 2025 ? As some of the previews seem to suggest they have had the drone since late Dec maybe early Jan so did it make the cut or not ? We will see when one gets out the box or if Ian and co confirm it in there full review video - only a little bit of time to wait.

If memory serves, that was to the FCC for certification in America before the deadline ban date.

CAA rules were quite clear, anything new to the UK market before 1st Jan 26 etc.

Let’s hope DJI play ball

Just a thought. I wonder if the “ham_cfg_support” trick will work..

Works on my Neo and Avata 2 via the goggles so I cannot see why not, its the main means of transmission

@JoeC

Guess there’s still an embargo on discussing specs or class markings though?

Yes. As your resident back door into the murky world of DJI NDAs, I can confirm that we were all permitted to release a vague video at midday today, that did not go into any specs, but just to showcase some of the footage and give some vague thoughts about it. We can’t release any more details until the 26th of March.
I actually missed out a lot of what they wanted me to say, because frankly, I didn’t agree with some of the statements. There will be way more detail when i post the reviews.
(And I for one will definitely be going through the good and the bad points including the video quality )

@ianinlondon

the good and the bad points including the video quality

Uh-oh… I can’t tell which category you’re hinting at for the video quality there.

UK1 it is

From this review - which also confirms the rumoured “single-lens FPV” mode.

I take it the NDA included the natty landing pad you all got but none of you praised?

[Raider]

See all these little video sneak-peeks i’m thinking don’t push that avata 2 buy button cos one thing clicked, i have the Neo fly more combo with Drum roll please Goggles and motion controller

god i hate this site sometimes
