## What reviewers say

Three hands-on whitelisted reviews of the DJI Avata 2 (Engadget, TechRadar, Tom's Guide) agree it is an immersive, crash-resistant, easy-entry FPV drone with excellent image quality via the O4 system and Goggles 3. Only Engadget gave a field-observed flight figure (18-20 minutes of realistic range); TechRadar and Tom's Guide flew it without publishing an independent measurement. Reviewers flag wind buffeting, the absence of forward obstacle sensors, and an awkward manual-mode learning curve. (Based on 3 reviews, 1 lab-tested, 2024-04-11–2024-07-30.)

Praised: Immersive FPV experience and standout image quality via the O4 transmission and Goggles 3; Crash-resistant, nimble and maneuverable, easy to fly out of the box.
Flagged: No forward-facing obstacle sensors, so tight-space flying demands real skill and awareness; Wind buffeting causes choppy/unlevel footage and real-world flight time falls short of spec; Manual-mode handling feels awkward/untuned ('not tuned as well as I'd like').
Disagreement: Reviewers split on who the drone suits: TechRadar frames the RC Motion 3 controller as making it easier than ever for total beginners to get airborne while warning it may feel like a gimmick to experienced FPV pilots, and Tom's Guide (a self-described FPV newcomer) found the motion controller grew on them; none of the surviving hands-on accounts recommend it for advanced pilots seeking freestyle aerobatics.
