I have searched vid after vid. This is the first one that ACTUALLY shows and explains how to fly in Manual Mode Thank you!!

[DannyBligh]

Well I can honestly say, flying a FPV drone whilst explaining what i’m doing is the hardest thing i’ve attempted so far on this channel 😂

Coordinating left and right sticks for turns seem to be a direct comparison to flying an rc plane with turns using both ailerons and rudder.Using rudder only(left stick) on a plane spins the rear-end in that direction, using the aileron (right stick)as well as the rudder banks the aircraft in a smooth turn... (?)

Hey Danny! I'm a new Avata 2 owner. I have not yet attempted manual flying with my actual drone yet. However, I've been hitting the simulators hard all week with my controller. Over 10 hours of flying virtually this week, and really struggling to gain control of the drone and be consistent with my flying. Your video, especially the part about rates, INSTANTLY changed my life. The only thing I did was change max rate to 360 and yaw to 200. I'm able to maneuver the drone so much easier now it's unreal. Thank you so much for explaining this stuff and showing examples. You are a legend.

Extremely helpful, I’ve been struggling to keep it in the air and you have just given me some clarity

[Jonas]

Excactly what I needed. You addressed all my pain points and explained it super well. Also awsome video quality. Thanks a ton!

[Blueskyver]

Great explanations, Dunny. Thank you!

[justingolby]

Brilliant tutorial, very comprehensive. thank you!

Brilliant video. I've been playing with Uncrashed and TrypFPV. Whilst I imagine that I'm not flying with similar weight, power and physics to the Avata (Trying to get all the exact adjustments regular rates for an Avata off people is like getting blood out of a stone), it is STILL teaching me how to fly FPV and I'm sure I can transfer those skills tentatively over to my Avata when I actually pluck up the courage to fly it in full ACRO outside. I've flown LOTS of times with the MC and in Normal mode. I actually learned here that once you have inputted your forward tilt on the right stick, it maintains that degree of tilt until it is countered. This would explain why when I'm using a SIM, it seems I'm always looking at the ground or constantly climbing 🤣. That said, I've had many decent flights in the sim so surely, I can do it for real outside. Danny, thank you for providing this tutorial.

Ps. if you have any insight as to what settings a person can make in the likes of Uncrashed and Tryp to get the drones in there to fly like or as close to the Avata as possible, that would be awesome.

Sick video! Well explained and all the info needed in a short time, cheers

[srtechnology]

Well done! Appreciate the explanation.

[fox]

Fantastic video, waiting for mine to arrive in the post, wish me luck im going to need it i think. lol

[Martin.Casper]

well done! Appreciate the explanation.

[mcrossley]

This video has actually got me flying in manual with a flippy roll just for good measures. Thankyou you explained it perfectly

[dstudios]

Thanks for making this video Danny, super useful as I've only used the motion controller 2 +Googles 2 + Avata FPS

[laulaupictures]

Wow! Finally something more detailed than most of how-to videos 👏 Excellent explanations, helps heaps 🙌 Good job bro 🎉

[pekwalker]

I just placed my order for one of these and found your channel. Top quality job. Liked and Sub'd.

[nunorocha]

One more like, one more sub! Amazing video, well explained, great job! I'm just new to FPV drones, bought my Avata 3 days ago and im just running simulator and made my first flight yesterday on normal mode. Really love how manual mode looks like but i'm sure i need a few more flight hours on Normal mode then start on Manual mode on Simulator.
Great video, thanks bro! Cheers

[beedroneinsta]

Well Danny great video .. great breakdown on fpv… trying to learn it and trying to get the time to practice it. Hope all is well

[PuffyNavel]

Hi Danny, thanks for the videos!

If you have any like special maneuvers it would be cool to see a tutorial on how to perform them.

I'm thinking of any move outside the realm of normal control of the drone. I guess that's what's called acro or acrobatic moves. Just got my FPV Remote 2 today and your guides have been great help getting set up 🙌🏻

Off to try out the simulators 🫡

What's your favorite simulation app to practice with btw?
