DJI is arranged to reveal its brand-new Avata 2 on April 11 yet that hasn’t stopped a flood of details about it dripping onto the web. We even saw the drone itself being unpacked out in public late last month in a low-grade video. This brand-new leakage saw a series of hi-res images and specs for the Avata 2 along with the Goggles 3 headset and RC Motion 3 controller published on X (the platform previously referred to as Twitter).
Much of the images originate from leaker Roland Quandt and they provide us our very first clear take a look at the drone which has noteworthy style modifications when compared to the initial Avata. The electronic camera is now at the front inside a smaller sized real estate instead of sitting plainly at the top. Furthermore, the flight fans have 3 blades rather of 5. This structured style corresponds the one seen in an earlier leakage from market expert Quadro News offering it some credibility.

When it comes to the Goggles 3, the headset looks comparable to DJI’s Goggles 2. If you look carefully at the front, you’ll discover a set of electronic camera lenses. We understand these are electronic cameras due to the fact that Jasper Ellens, another expert, shared screenshots of the Avata 2’s Quick Start Guide on X. Documents expose the lenses make it possible for the headset’s Real View PiP (Picture-In-Picture) mode, permitting users to see their environments without needing to get rid of the Goggles 3. The reported “ultra-low-latency” video feed will then be revealed on the gadget’s “micro-OLED high-definition” screens.
The RC Motion 3, like whatever else we talked about up until now, looks comparable to the previous generation with numerous significant modifications. DJI’s approaching controller has a darker color pattern sporting a various shade of gray and black-accented inputs. The joystick is on the left side pressing the now-flat mode button down towards the middle. The orange lock button has a rough texture and is much bigger than in the past. The very same opts for the side dial: it’s a lot larger.
