A leaked video has fixed america different look astatine the DJI Avata, a rumored FPV (first-person view) drone from DJI that reports suggest volition beryllium designed to beryllium flyable indoors acknowledgment to a compact, alleged “cinewhoop” design. The Avata follows the merchandise of the DJI FPV, the company’s debut first-person drone released past year.

The video, which was posted by reliable drone leaker @OsitaLV, appears to amusement the drone being piloted with DJI’s question controller, which was antecedently disposable alongside its archetypal FPV drone past year. The drone’s aviator is wearing a brace of FPV goggles dissimilar immoderate that DJI presently has connected the market, suggesting they’re the caller exemplary shown disconnected successful erstwhile leaks. These DJI Goggles 2 look to person a akin plan to its existing pair, albeit with a smaller and much compact design.

The video doesn’t springiness a large look astatine the drone itself, but thankfully a bid of different images person leaked to amusement it disconnected successful much detail. An evident picture of its retail packaging seems to corroborate the Avata branding, and there’s besides this shot of the drone itself alongside accessories including the question controller, FPV goggles, and modular controller. Another photo series gives a close-up presumption of the drone from each angle, including its ducted propellers that should trim harm if (or, much accurately, when) the drone crashes.

According to previous leaks, the DJI Avata volition measurement astir 500g, which puts it supra the 250g threshold — meaning pilots person to registry with the FAA to alert it outdoors. There’s little accusation astir its camera specs, but leaker @DealsDrone antecedently reported that it could lucifer the prime of DJI’s caller Mini 3 Pro.

Now, the large question is erstwhile we mightiness spot the Avata launched and priced for release. Previous reports had indicated DJI could beryllium prepared to motorboat its latest drone successful July oregon August this year, but it subsequently emerged that this merchandise day may person been delayed. @OsitaLV reports it should beryllium DJI’s archetypal merchandise successful the 2nd fractional of 2022. The information that moving prototypes are present being filmed successful usage means that a afloat motorboat can’t beryllium excessively acold away.
