guilty as charged - though I am sure that if you watch it via here it does not add to the counts as I never see my video counts go up when I post my award winning content here - so we might be safe haha

FFS, am I going to have to submit another FOI request to the CAA to clarify a panicked ā€˜breaking news’ story based on this guy’s need for clicks? :man_facepalming:

How would this work on a 360 drone. The green light would get in the way no matter what?

Here’s a set of simple guidance cards for the Avata 360 and FPV Goggles (3 & N3).

Whilst regular goggles users, will probably already know most of this, there’s a few additional icons specific to the Avata 360

Not sure if anyone’s been following the DJI Avata360 issue with it being a UK1 labelled drone but having an issue with its compliance over not having a green flashing light.

Geeksvana has some useful and positive updates about it so anyone with an Avata360 might want to keep an eye on this…

Little confused by the statement from the CAA and the original video - maybe it’s me but it seems the video was all about not having ANY green flashing light regardless of what time of day you were flying. So if no green light you don’t fly at night its simple and the classification to c/ UK was that it needs a green light for night flight. Granted its part of the c1 specs to have that green light - but it seems the CAA is not overly worried about that being part of the standard to get the classification - another storm in a t-cup that didn’t need the panic from Geeksvana :man_facepalming: :man_shrugging:

I just had my first N3 goggles and motion controller light with the A360…and I’m a little underwhelmed.

When I compare it to my Neo 2 on the same goggles/motion controller, the A360 needed much bigger turning circles (I get it’s heavier, affecting inertia, etc) and it was rather twitchy, suddenly erratic, even in Sports mode (with O/A off by default) with it not being close to the deck.

At one point I turned on head tracking, but again was underwhelmed. It wasn’t as immersive as my old PSVR (on a PS4) using flight sim games (like Ultrawings). It felt a bit jerky and (unless it was my imagination) the res on the display seemed lower.

2-3 times I had a ā€˜signal interference’ message, which makes me wonder if that’s the source of it’s uncharacteristic (compared to Neo 2) twitchiness during flight.

I’m hoping to take it out to a different area this afternoon and have another try.

I would be overly concerned, if I were you.

It’s not a patch on the Avata 2 either with goggles and motion controller.

It does not move in the same way or as quickly and nimbly.

Don’t get me wrong I love it, but as a camera drone not an FPV wanna be

Which isn’t a patch on the original Avata, that was and still is the best version

I’ve bit the bullet and clicked ā€œBuy Nowā€ on the Avata 360 RC2 Flymore Combo.

Roll on Friday 8th May - it’s delivery day. :grin:
