DJI has released a firmware update for the Avata 360 drone, introducing waypoint flight, zoom controls for subject tracking, and support for the RC Pro 2 controller. These enhancements allow aerial filmmakers to plan shots more effectively and manage their footage without relying solely on manual flying.
The addition of waypoint flight is particularly significant for capturing cinematic travel videos and outdoor adventures, enabling users to design flight routes and execute planned camera movements. This feature, combined with the drone's ability to record 8K/60fps HDR 360-degree video, offers creators the flexibility to reframe footage during editing.
The Avata 360's new zoom support for FocusTrack enhances subject tracking, allowing for dynamic composition adjustments while filming. This update, which also includes compatibility with the DJI RC Pro 2 controller, provides users with more control over their aerial footage. No further timeline was disclosed at the time of publication.
