Flew the avata today first flight was flawless, 2nd flight sad to say tumble of death despite guard mods this is ridiculous;

Oh no, that's a sad news to read.

Hi, Elephant Apocalypse. Thank you for reaching out and we're sorry read about this. Can you please confirm if you were able to retrieve the drone?

Sorry to hear that.  Might have been one mod too many?

Judging from his other post, me thinks you are correct.

Consider switching to GEPRC CINEBOT30 with DJI O3 AIR UNIT bro. This is a cinewhoop far more superior than the DJI AVATA. You can use the same goggles and DJI RC2 thanks to the DJI 03 AIR UNIT. CINEBOT30 wont limit your flying style with a tumble or yaw issues unlike the DJI AVATA. You may watch this review GEPRC CINEBOT30 VS DJI AVATA.

I am just waiting they come up with the new frames to use the DJI O3 because the camera will not fit the old frames, O3 camera is wider.  Thinking in buy a CINEBOT 30 or 35 frame and build one with my DJI O3, hopefully will not need a naked go pro. I have a GEPRC Rocket with DJI Air unit, good quality. I am still learning, different world from very easy to fly Avata.

There's already a prebuilt one from GEPRC. Here is the link for reference.

There are limits to mods for sure.

I went check again on their site last night, got one 6S prebuilt coming, also got a frame with the O3 housing for a build that they already have for sale.

Going to sell one of the two O3 Air Unit and  one Controller 2 I have new in box. I already have a Taranis X9D radio controller  (use on my planes) and will add the Crossfire for better range, will be a better set up for sure

Mods if anything increased the odds of catastrophe.   I think I was overly confident; needless to say going pre built as others have suggested, this tumble issue I doubt will get solved many have tried ; eventually either buy a mavic or pre built or if the IQ is sufficient for you the FPV drone
