On August 25, DJI presented a new drone. As the teaser of the presentation let it be, we are talking about another drone, although in this case it has a different shape from what we have seen in others of the company's range. And it seems that the Chinese are looking for ways to diversify the market with other types of drones. And a few hours after the announcement of this presentation, all the details about this new drone have been leaked, and as you will see, it has nothing to do with what we have seen so far from the Chinese manufacturer.

Here is the DJI Avata

The first thing is that they used Winfuture media to reveal the name of this DJI Avata drone. As you can see, it's a very different looking drone, with a relatively compact size, but a different form factor. In this case it can be seen that the propellers have guards, so that they can probably move through smaller and smaller environments without any problems. At the top we see the camera module, which looks different from what we could see in the teaser image, although there is a possibility that it can be exchanged for another action at some point.

Of course, it's a drone that we won't be able to fly anywhere, its weight would be 410 grams and therefore exceeds the 250 grams that separates one from the other. It looks like a drone designed for indoor use, as the safety and anti-collision sensors seem to be arranged that way, including the TOF sensor. So it seems like the perfect drone for flying at low altitudes and in confined spaces. Of course, at the same time it is a very fast drone, it can reach 97 km/h, and it seems that it has an FPV vocation, so it would be the successor of the last DJI FPV we met.

This speed can be reduced thanks to an emergency brake that stops it almost in the air. This speed can also be used to return from the take-off point if the battery runs out. The battery does not provide much autonomy; The 2420mAh battery takes only 18 minutes to drain; we understand that because of the high speeds it is capable of reaching. Apart from this, they have also leaked other details, such as the camera for recording videos and photos. It has a 48-megapixel sensor that can record 4K video thanks to a 1/1.7" sensor with a wide-angle, autofocus, fixed and 2.34mm focal length, as well as an f/2.8 also the opening

It comes with 20GB of internal storage which is expandable up to 256GB via microSD cards. The battery is charged via a USB Type-C connector. What confirms it as an FPV drone is that a new generation of DJI FPV goggles will also arrive with it. And its price will be similar to its predecessor, at $1,168 for the drone and glasses package. While the drone would cost around $629.
