The DJI Avata, launching on the 25 August 2022, is the company’s second ready-to-fly FPV (First Person View) drone in under two years. The new drone launches alongside new goggles, the DJI Goggles 2 (which aren’t the same thing as the DJI FPV Goggles V2). 

Specs are impressive, with the DJI Avata boasting a 4K 60fps camera stabilized by a single-axis gimbal and EIS (just like the DJI FPV). The drone uses digital live view, so the goggles display high def video at up to 120MHz (depending on goggle choice) from a 50Mbps feed.
