The Avata-2 would have been more successful if it had been possible to fly it with goggles 2 and rc2 from the previous avata-1.  Everyone wants to have several drones in one goggles2 helmet.

Hi, Oleg-5. Please rest assured that we will also convey your compatibility needs for previous accessories like DJI Goggles 2 to our engineers for serious evaluation, and we will continue to introduce more convenient functions. Thank you for your understanding and support.

Some of the review videos have said that goggle 2 support is coming in a later firmware upgrade.

Received my Avata 2 today and updated the firmware as prompted by the DJI Fly app. Googles and Motion are now on latest version V01.00.0100 but the Avata 2 is stuck on V01.00.0000 and there is no further prompt for a firmware update.

Worst of all the googles are now reporting incompatible firmware for aircraft/goggles/controller and it won't go away. Not a great introduction to your new model.

Please help and rectify this for me.

Hi all. Avata 1 users have Integra, Googles 2 and FPV Remote Controller 2 so If Avata 2 can be compatible with this all products, it will be better for old users.

I have the same issue.
Goggle 3 was updated to v01.00.0100
Motion 3 was updated to v01.00.0100
Avata 2 is still on v01.00.0000 and I get error "incompatible firmware" but DJI Fly App does not offer firmware update.

DJI Assistant 2 recognizes the Avata 2 but shows no firmware, the error message is "Cannot load firmware list"
For all my other devices (Air 3, RC2, Move 3, Goggle 3) the assistant works well.

Same issue for me too, pretty annoying, hopefully they can rectify it asap!

Same issue for me. DJI, please fix this ASAP!

Echoing the same incompatible firmware version alert yet reporting no new firmware versions.  I can already see by the number of people posting this problem, it's going to be an issue for many.

Same here. I wonder if they pulled the Avata 2 FW in the last 24 hours.

Guess we'll just have to wait and see..

I’m having the exact same issue. Very frustrating!

Same issue here.

typical DJI garbage software / firmware issues. No surprise that it doesn't work. Sending this junk back.

Same problem here. Unable to fly at the moment.

DJI Assistant 2 works and reinstalls firmware updates on the MC and goggles without issue. But when you connect the drone, it won't even load the firmware list.  Did anyone update the firmware on their goggles and MC before the drone? Is there an update sequence we got wrong?

*****New firmware released... DJI Avata 2 Firmware: V01.00.0200  is available *****

Update as of 23:13 GMT on 12APR. They DID just push a new FW and I was able to update the Avata 2 and no more warnings!

V01.00.0200

Enjoy!

This update, V01.00.0200, resolves our problem. I just installed it and can confirm it work properly.

new update fixed it. glad to see they pushed out an update quickly to resolve this issue.

Could everyone confirm aircraft is at .0200 goggles and controller at .0100 as mine is.

Sorry just paranoid now but not getting the incompatibility warning anymore.

That's where the versions currently stand. You're good!

Do not update to 0.02 for avata 2 drone
It will break the FCC ham file mod and it won't work on it anymore. You will be stuck in CE mode if not in the US

hello, in manual mode i have a strange behaviour, on fast turn the drone vibrate, it loses stability, i don't understand why

Because it's an Avata. New drone, old issues.

Has anyone had problems with recording a video only to find it did not actually record? Also issues with incorrect date/time of file?

How did you install the update? The DJI fly app called for a firmware update at the time I activated the avata 2 and went through the update procedure but did not update to the latest version. I am getting the not matching firmware error in my googles.

I got it to update. I had to use my PC and update the DJI assistant app to the latest version so it would see the firmware update for Avata 2. The Googles and Motion controller 3 was at the latest version from updating from the DJI fly app.  

I am contacting DJI.  What happened to you?  Why do you have DJI FPV flying since the release date in manual mode and there are no problems. A very successful product and an excellent drone.   But what happened to the AVATA series drones????   They will try to turn off the engines in flight. From the fall, they will fall into a non-corroding flight.  This was on AVATA1 and it remained on AVATA2.  The people began to fall en masse.  In Manual mode, the motors turn off at some point and the drone crashes.  Where are all your testers from where such problems.  This suggests that AVATA is the most unsuccessful product in the DJI line.

Hello, there. Sorry for the inconvenience. Seeing that your drone crashed, we would like to if you have created a repair case?
About the issue you said, please be cautious that the attitude of the aircraft will be unstable when it is in Manual mode.
You can check the information in the User Manual, too

This is 100% irresponsible flying. You should have done an emergency motor stop the moment you crashed. I agree it going backwards is not great, but you seriously need to have your finger on that start/stop button and double tap it before it comes to this.

Also, why are you learning freestyle above water, traffic and people? Please stop before you hurt someone and go practice in an open field or something at least.

Don't you see that the motors have shut down. The drone fell and hit the ground.  Pay attention to the bitrate.  After hitting 24 mb, it jumped to 50 mb.   So after the impact, the motors were activated and the drone flies away in reverse.  This is a bug in the software. There are no correction factors in such a situation.  AVATA1 had the exact same problem for some people.  Pay attention.

According to Madtech Ham file still works he updated the video with new info check his channel out. So you can safely update your goggles & drone etc!

As per the latest update, Ham file will put the drone in high power mode (probably FCC) but it WONT unlock channels if outside US.
To get FCC power along with manual channel selection, you still need the drone-tweak / drone-hacks software.

CE Mode + Ham file gets you 33dBm (1600mw) call it fcc if u like
Regardless of what channel you in its full power RF signal now that’s in 2.4Ghz & 5.8Ghz , no need for any 3rd party hacks or software’s ! by not having options to pick channels makes this irrelevant as you get full rf signal . And no where from DJI or any rep testers have mentioned diffrent rf signal from picking 1-3 channels.

In my ham file  tests in CE it increases the power slightly and eliminates the 5.1 GHz which in CE without hacks works very well. The real FCC power in 5.8 GHz and 2.4  is obtained with the dronetweaks app, if then you also add the HAM you get the maximum

The CE region Avata 2 drones use Tri-band frequency 2.4-5.1-5.8 it doesn’t eliminates the 5.1Ghz now if u apply HAM file(it will increases the RF output) signal that’s all, to test this accurately you need RF modulator (madtech Ian) has done the test you can find his latest video on YT

CE MODE
5.8Ghz 14dBm 25mw
5.1Ghz 23dBm 200mw
2.4Ghz 20dBm 100mw

CE MODE + HAM FILE
5.8Ghz 33dBm 1600mw
5.1Ghz 23dBm 200mw
2.4Ghz 33dBm 1600mw

so there is MASSIVE increase in RF signal compared

You're masking the problems. Similarly, many people had problems with AVATA-1.  Similarly, some users had a sharp drop and AVATA flew away after the impact.  There are a lot of videos on the web and in chat rooms.   Later, they released a new firmware, but did not indicate which problems were solved.   And your forum is only for beginners who can be fooled or sent somewhere.  You are afraid to admit the problem.
