Wow, this is unbelievable. The virtual flight app was one of the biggest reasons I bought a DJI Avata Pro, as I have Zero experience flying a drone. I wasted a LOT of time trying to get this to work. Couple this with the new firmware update where the drone doesn't take off if no phone is attached to goggles; I had a TERRIBLE experience trying to get up and running.
Nothing was working; the Virtual Flight app wasn't working. The drone would not take off, etc. I called DJI Tech Support and let the tech read the manuals (as if I couldn't) and gave me instructions I did before. Eventually, he had me update everything using my computer and the downloaded DJI application. It was hard to get to work, but eventually, I got the Drone and Controller updated. The goggles wouldn't even register with the application. The tech told me to return the drone as something was wrong with the goggles. I looked up the error that night and figured out the drone wouldn't take off because the phone wasn't connected. I connected the phone, and it would now fly. Yet, no Virtual Flight app. Luckily, I was able to learn without the Virtual Flight app and didn't crash.
MAJOR ISSUES AND POINTS:
1) WTF! Your tech didn't know any of this! Unacceapble and extremely poor support.
2) I didn't even know there was version 2 of the controller. It's great, but the idea that it's unsupported by Virtual Fly is ridiculous, and it's been months since it was released.
3) WHY DOEN"T YOU SAY SOMETHING LIKE, "CAN NOT TAKE OFF UNTIL YOU CONNECT A GPS PHONE." The "error" message is obtuse and extremely not helpful. This is poor app design, and just a little information would be extremely helpful to everyone, including DJI and support (BTW Train those folks. See #1) |
