Product Introduction
The DJI Avata Drone with a built-in propeller guard, is compact and portable. Thanks to its size, it
can fly in both indoor and outdoor scenarios, hover like a hummingbird, and return to the home
point automatically. Its camera has a 1/1.7''CMOS image sensor, and when working with its
gimbal, it is capable of recording 4K 60fps ultra-high-definition videos. Its max hovering time
approximates 18 minutes. Click here to learn more about DJI Avata Specs.
The DJI Avata Drone adopts the most edge-cutting DJI O3+ image transmission technology, and
can be used with two partners: the goggles and remote control device. In environments without
interferences, its max transmission distance reaches 6 km (SRRC), max flight altitude 500 m, and
max video bitrate 50 Mbps, bringing you a next-level immersive flight experience.
* Please notice any unexpected factors before flight. For example, in some regions, the max
flight altitude is limited to 120 m, which can be unlocked through flight license application.

DJI Goggles 2, with the high-performance dual display, can receive the image signals from the
drone and sync its camera view in a real-time manner so that lets the user have the first-person
view. A remote control device with functional buttons enables a smoother flight and shooting
experience. For example, when being used with DJI Motion Controller, it can duplicate the user's
hand movements.

How to Remove the Gimbal Protector
[Important] Prior to powering on the drone, remove its gimbal protector.
·During power-on, the gimbal vibrates and runs self-check*. If the gimbal protector isn't
removed, it may damage the motor or affect its life expectancy, or even impact the flight safety.
·To safeguard the camera lens and gimbal axis arm, you'd better mount the gimbal protector to
the drone after each time of use.
* If the drone is powered on without activation, the gimbal will not vibrate and will not run self-
check.
