New DJI Avata video shows compatibility with FPV Controller

We finally have an answer to what many people have been asking about the upcoming DJI Avata, controller compatibility. Have no fear, DJI’s Motion Controller won’t be the only controller Avata will use, but also the standard FPV Controller 2, per an Instagram video.

A video shared by DJI insider Jasper Ellens on Twitter shows DJI’s Avata cinewhoop hovering indoors, controlled by the FPV Controller. Until now, we’ve only heard rumors that the FPV Controller would be compatible with Avata but nothing concrete like this video.

The FPV Controller is the standard controller used with DJI’s FPV drone. One of the company’s more basic controllers, offering no screen (why would you need it if you have goggles). The controller does provide some unique options, like a dedicated start/stop button on the back and a lanyard anchor on the front.

The Motion Controller is even more stripped down, only offering the bare minimum for flight. The cool thing about this…
