Iceland FPV | DJI Avata 2 

This is a legendary comment :-)

2010 there was no competition. 2024 you have to deliver outstanding performance. Putting some clips together and adding music is not a big challenge. There is no story telling, there is no color grading. Bright areas are overexposed, dark areas are noisy. There is no risk taking in fly paths. And 4k views (now 5k views) for that content is pretty good. Keep going!

Damn, that's a pity. We were there for 2,5 weeks but almost every day in the early morning there was no wind.

Thank you so much! 😊 I'm really glad you enjoyed the shots. There's so much more to explore, and I'm excited to keep capturing and sharing these moments. Your support keeps me inspired!

Thanks, otherwise I would fly straight in the direction of the sun. Especially in the 1st and 3rd shot.

@@WouterVisuals lol. I just mean, always left turns. Never right..

@@sirfranski9176 I don't get your comment, there are also some clips with right turns :-)

Thanks! Rocksteady, very satisfied with the stabilization.

@@WouterVisuals Nice! I may have to try out rocksteady again! Would save a lot of time stabilizing in GyroFlow

@@flyingfilmmaker Yes, according to some yt vids, the quality difference is minimal.

That's a pity! Sometimes you need a bit of luck. In the 2,5 weeks we were there it rained only once the whole day and that was during a travel day from the north to the west. Most of the clips I shot were in the early morning somewhere between 05:00 - 07:00 am, around these times there was almost no wind. The wind usually became stronger as the day developed. Hope you had a nice trip though! Thank you, appreciate your comment.

Thanks, nice to read :-) It was all shot in manual mode. Sport mode is quite limited in my view.

Thanks, appreciate your comment!

Thanks for your support!!! :-)

@@WouterVisuals of course

Final Cut Pro

Yes, ND filters from Freewell and FPV Controller 3

@@WouterVisuals Which filters from Freewell did you use?

These, first time they are bit hard to put on and off. >www.amazon.com/Freewell-Standard-4Pack-Filters-Avata/dp/B0D1JX1PDQ/ref=sr_1_1?crid=2KAMAY4YM0YFJ&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.jPmwlLWgNh0buRQ35wtPQpJYQM5JX4keOmBIv34rJwH3_eXMieaWkuJ0BArd7MgPsgFSQOE3_3DOV3E7lJr1t86ffYlNglm0-OxwTfECoxMIllq6fVpxd8xqLEipgUqyuHbJgUcC9tlpy0XRtoCHr4IEwGWr80QaOq-0TRseCbFMG3AX4hR0Lnb2kQq-F5tJltxoj01UVM-Bo-FG13ckZ3IuOkwQVNA_GtbTgTifg78.VVPURnCGoGCwa7bEMI8Yo5aXj84CWCdAmWkbWa_gtBM&dib_tag=se&keywords=freewell%2Bavita%2B2&qid=1721669200&sprefix=freewel%2Bavata%2B%2Caps%2C246&sr=8-1&th=1

@@jerry73670 Yes > Freewell DJI Avata 2 ND Filters 4-Pack. Deze beelden heb ik allemaal in 30 fps opgenomen. Thanks Jerry!

@@WouterVisualsals je ND filters gebruikt, gebruik je dan de build in stabilisator, of gebruik je dan ook gyroflow?

@@jerry73670 Build in stabilisator ben ik zeer tevreden dus daarom gebruik ik geen Gyroflow. Kost bovendien weer meer tijd om de opnames te bewerken. Ik heb wel op youtube gekeken naar vergelijkingsvideo's, verschil vond ik minimaal.

Thanks Jeroen! Yes, I used the DJI FPV Controller 3.

@@WouterVisuals would you consider buying the avata2 with just the motion controller?

The fly more combo already comes with the motion controller. I only used it twice when is waiting for the delivery of the fpv controller. The kind of shots you can get with the motion controller is quite limited so wouldn't recommend buying it.

Thanks! That is the selfoss waterfall.

Very nice to hear! Currently working on a regular drone video of Iceland. Definitely want to go to Japan one day.

Thanks, yes it definitely is. You should pursue your dream! Iceland trip already planned?

@@WouterVisuals yes next year with my fpv drone 🙂

Thanks, the landscapes are insane! it was on my bucket list as well for some time.

Thanks :-)

Thanks for your feedback!

@@bartjes2509 Thanks! Appreciate your comment!

Thanks Mishi!

I am from Brussels but I don't have a car to really go to the Netherlands unfortunately.Damn, your Iceland video is freaky AWESOME!I have been there on holidays but to see it from the air with your video, it's even more beautifull I fly a mini 3 pro and I just watching your video, I have so much anxiety lol!How do you manage not to fly it into the ocean or into the rocks, that's amazing the courage you have.I'm thinking more and more to buy also the Avata 2.I have ZERO experience in FPV and it looks really scary compared to flying my mini 3. How many hours (or flights) do you think it will get me to get to your level and amazing skills?100?200?More?

That's a pity. Thanks, very nice to hear! You can fly a lot more precise with the goggles instead of looking on your phone like when flying a regular drone. I did 40 hours of practice in a simulator/game > Liftoff before flying the avata. You can buy this game for +- 20 euro on Steam. It's a bit different but it makes you familiar with flying FPV. Practiced in real life for about 30 hours before going to Iceland.

Scotland is on my wishlist as well :-)

Thanks Mick

Thanks, Iceland is magnificent!

Thanks! As long as you are somewhat in the line of sight, the connection will stay good. I'm standing near the crevasses on the left side as you can see in the first clip.

@@WouterVisuals mhhm okay makes sense, you make me want to buy the dji avata. Thanks for the inspiration.

Great to hear! You're welcome :-)

Thanks! Appreciate your comment :-)

Thank you!

Thanks!

Thanks! Yesss :-)

@@WouterVisuals thanks for answering) on a next week I’ll be there ) how far did you fly?

@@timurmuhametov Max 1300 meter I think but that’s because I didn’t need to fly much further at the spots I’ve been so far. I prefer to use the battery to record videos instead of traveling to the spot.

@@timurmuhametov you orderded the Avata?

@@WouterVisuals I already have) I mean I’ll be in Iceland on a next week )

That's a pity, how did you lose it? Did you make back-ups of your drone footage?

I lost connection into some ice tunel. I lost all videos from this flight. Just the last one is on goggles…DJI sent me new one for free but almost all holiday on Iceland without drone…your shots are amazing btw!

Damn... :-( Thanks!
