Must-Have Accessories for DJI Avata 2 Drone: Boost Durability and User Experience
In this post, I’ll share some useful accessories for the DJI Avata 2 drone, DJI Goggles 3, and Remote Controller 3 that can enhance your user experience and improve the drone’s durability and functionality. If there are other upgrades and accessories I haven’t mentioned, feel free to let us know in the comments.
SD Card
You will need some decent SD card for the 4K recording, if your cards are too low recording might randomly stop during flight. The same applies to your FPV Goggles DVR.
Some of these cards are recommended by DJI, suitable for 4K 60fps recording in the DJI Avata 2 and DVR in the Goggles 3:

GoPro/Insta360 Camera Mount
You can use this adapter to mount a Insta360 or GoPro action camera on top of the Avata 2. However, be aware that the adapter location might obstruct the GPS sensor, potentially reducing GPS signal quality.

Spare Propellers
Even though the DJI Avata 2 comes with propeller guards, it’s still possible to damage the propellers, especially when flying in tight spaces. Having some spare propellers ensures optimal flight performance and prevents “jello” from ruining your footage.

Propellers Storage Box
A dedicated hard case storage box for your propellers ensures they don’t get bent or damaged when packed in the bag.

Skin Wrap Decal
Do you want to personalize your DJI Avata 2 and Goggles 3 with bright stickers, or perhaps remain stealthy with camouflage skins? Custom skin wrap decals are the way to go.

ND Filters
To achieve cinematic footage, ND filter is a must. Learn how to use ND filter in this tutorial: https://oscarliang.com/nd-filter-fpv/
The official ND filters from DJI might be of great quality, but they are quite expensive. These filters can pop off and get lost during collisions, so opting for more affordable ND filters might be a good option for those on a budget.

Landing Gear
If you often land on puddles, wet dirt, or grass, landing gear would be ideal for avoiding a dirty or wet Avata 2.

Protective Bumper
Adding guards on guards might seem redundant, but the DJI Avata 2 is somewhat fragile and its prop guards can easily crack as demonstrated in my review. It might add a little bit of weight, but the protective bumpers on the drone’s exterior reduce the risk of a damaged frame.

Camera Bumper
The camera lens on the DJI Avata 2 is quite exposed. A camera bumper can safeguard the lens from direct impact during a collision.

Hard Carry Case
The DJI Avata 2 comes with a decent soft padded bag, but if you want something stronger and more professional, a hard carry case would be ideal.
