This was actually my Avata 1, but there is no option for posting about Avata 1
Very simple video, it was my firt attempt at flying indoors last year

Very nice first indoor flight RR.    Any plans to move up to the Avata 2?

G'day mate, that's very nice! Sheraton on the Park? Ah they call it Sheraton Grand Sydney now

Yes, I've already bought a 2 Fly More.
Flying great, but can't get it to record video on the drone or the goggles yet. It's supposed to do it automatically.
Need to experiment more.
Actually, I'll post a message here about it

Thank you and G'Day
It was the Mantra Hotel. Small but comfortable

Thanks for your video
I plan on doing this for some real estate jobs.
What are your settings for flying indoor?

Glad you upgraded to the Avata 2.  Probably just a setting or two needing to be tweaked.  Hopefully, when you make you post you'll get some good ideas on how to make it work properly.  I can't fly FPV as it gives me a severe case of vertigo or dizziness.  It's strange as I can watch FPV videos all day and not get dizzy or anything, but the minute I put on the goggles my head starts spinning.  I even tried flying while sitting down but that didn't help.

None. I just lunched it and it flew without problems. However, the next day I tried flying it inside an office, it kept warning there was no GPS and crashing into walls.

Apparently I just need a "long press" on the shutter release to switch it to video mode.
I've noticed when I watch video footage me me flying the Avata, I lean over when banking

Leaning over during banking - that's the mind taking over thinking we need to lean.  At least you can fly the Avatas.  I really wish I could but at least I get to watch the FPV footage without getting all dizzy and everything.

yeah that's gotta really suck.  there has to be a way to deal with this from medicine to just easing into it although i understand it could be so bad there's no way to force it.  i sometimes get a tiny bit dizzy too but when i feel it coming on, i can cancel it out by adjusting my focus or changing course and it's gone.

What if you used a screen instead of the goggles? You can feed the output of the googles to DJI Fly on a phone or pad

It does stink for sure.  I've been to doctors and specialists and had several scans done to eliminate tumors, etc.  I really think it has something to do with the goggles because I got the same dizzy feeling when I wore night vision goggles.  Then, again, I don't get that feeling from my goggles when scuba diving.  Oh well, at least I can watch and enjoy the FPV footage without getting crazy dizzy.

True, but then it's just like watching FPV footage on YT.  Not quite the experience of seeing it first hand in the goggles.

This is true

This is true

It really is okay that I can't fly FPV because at least I can watch the FPV videos.  Besides, I've really gotten back into my true passion and that is scuba diving so that limits my time for drone flying.  

Nice and safe
