Hi,

Really struggling with the Avata. Owned a mavic Pro, mini2 and mini3 pro and not had any major issues, but I can't get the Avata to arm. I am in a Geo Zone, which I have unlocked, but every time I double press the motion controller it just beeps back at me and the props don't start. I know it's connected because I can tilt the gimble up and down.

The only error I see at the moment is that Goggles Overheat and that happens almost immediately after I turn them on, even after they've been resting for over an hour at room temperature.

My only thought is that the battery needs a minimum charge of something like 80% to start or something like that?

Add me to the list of Avata won't arm - just double beeps at me.  I'm in an allowed flight zone and was able to fly in this same spot for about 10 minutes yesterday.  Now I can't get it to arm.

Got it to arm, but only when the headset is connected to my phone and the dji  fly app for some reason.

Interesting.  Haven't tried that yet, but I will shortly.

Well this is beyond annoying.  I tried to get it to arm with the DJI fly app connected, still no luck.  Have also tried multiple locations, all of which are approved locations to fly in.  Just can't get it to arm.

Same here; I can't even get the remote 2 from the first FPV to connect or update the firmware.

Well, mine is now arming and working just fine.  I'm not entirely sure why.  I did connect to the DJI fly app and tried to arm, but it didn't work.  I then went back in to the the app and clicked on the fly spots (mine is in a warning zone that I've acknowledged each time I've tried to arm, so not sure if this actually affected something or if it was just coincidence.  I also noticed that I may not have been pushing the Lock button twice properly (I may have been trying to hold the second push like all the other double taps perform).  I made an effort to tap it twice very quickly in succession and have armed successfully several times since.  So one of those two, or just coincidence, not sure.

I can arm Avata with Motion Controller and can fly with no issues. However; I cannot arm Avata with FPV Controller 2. Controller 2 communication is good as I can adjust Avata gimbal with the Controller 2. All firmware is up to date. Any suggestions?
