I have brought DJI Avata drone to a Drift event with surprising results. I took it just for fun in addition to my freestyle drone.
A cinewhoop is a wrong choice for race/drift type event but on a tiny drift practice track DJI Avata did keep up with the cars even better than I've expected.

Though it did end up with a yaw spin of death somewhere between 40-50th lap.

Video is from DJI Goggles DVR.. as turns out I have forgot to select to record to the drones card and there was no warning.. I have returned home and only when findout that the microSD on the drone is completely empty...

Nice job bud. She can certainly move but no competition for a decent action camera.

It was raining this morning, so cars were going half the speed on a few initial wet laps and I've got beutifull smooth video on the Avata.   It's perfect video, when the Avata is flying as a cinewhoop at ~30-35km/h. I will upload it later.

Here is second attempt with slow smooth video after the rain. Avata does work when you use it for the right porpuse.
