Here we go and have been looking forward to introducing the Avata to my home abandoned site. Loved it flying this through here. 100% control and much more fun than my Cinlelog35, due to the better efficiency. All in manual mode with camera on auto settings. The beams of light last about 20mins before the sun gets too high, like an abandoned sunrise effect. It can go wherever you point it -

Epic footage and great flying Corey.    It's easy to see why that old abandoned building would be a favorite FPV site for you.  I'm assuming you used the Controller 2 vice the Motion Controller for that flight.

Yeah mate. Controller 2 and Goggle V2. It's a firm fave of the FPV community in and around Sheffield. There will be tears when the demo teams move in and start making way for houses....They will have a difficult job, as there's a river running past it and they have to get the wreckage over the river. Think there will be a memorial service for the old girl

Dang that will be a real shame to lose that prime FPV flying spot.  I see it appears to be a favorite spot for graffiti artists also.

Sounds similar to all the building construction going on nearby my location.  Forests are slowly disappearing and nothing but housing and commercial developments appearing.  Shame is nothing is being done about increasing infrastructure such as roads, etc.

Slow and smooth. Avata is perfect for casually hitting gaps.
I have noticed, somehow it's easier to hit gaps with the Avata than my both cinelogs 25/35.

Yeah, I liked this one even more with the sunlight!

Acres of space to practice. Is this the same location where the fires were smouldering in a recent post you made?

Nice to see!

Since you got the Avata have you flown anything else?

Cool footage and smooth flying..

Did Clumber Park the day after it arrived, but it's not my fault I have lot's of abandoned sites to choose from

I think I meant flown any other drone since.

They are only allowed to demolish and build on the site. It's surrounded by forestry and classed as an area of outstanding beauty. They have no chance of expanding round the location.

They are both lighter and more responsive in my experience with the 30 and 35. Although Avata is no bloater, she just flies superbly everywhere I've flown so far.

Took the Apex to the bando too and threw the DJI FPV around yesterday early evening before dinner. The weather ain't too good in South Yorkshire lately though.

The weather has been terrible down here the last few days.  yesterday you could have kayaked down my road.  

Nice rip & great location, I myself have been mainly fling the avata since I got it but took my nazgul out the weekend just to rip it hard and get some tricks in

I'm off to Wales again tomorrow morning. Dreading it as got soaked through last time. Hoping to have a fly here, but taking one of my more agile toys - https://goo.gl/maps/Gv1UPfUTLsPKvGfv9

That's really great to hear.  Wish it was like that here also.  Developers and their big bucks get pretty  much what they want.
