Need opinions: Is this normal Avata 2 behavior or signs of damage?
I’m currently inspecting a used DJI Avata 2 before buying it.
While reviewing the footage on the SD card, I discovered it had:
- a full pool submersion (completely underwater)
Neither of these were disclosed by the seller.
The drone still powers on and flies, but during test flights I noticed:
- slight wobbling even just around ~3 stories high outdoor
- occasional jerky movement in 4K 60fps footage
- slight instability even with RockSteady enabled
- tried to fix it with warp stabilizer on premiere pro but it needs above 20-25% of stabilization
As context: I’m a newb to FPV, so I’m trying to figure out whether this is:
- normal Avata 2 / FPV movement
- beginner misinterpretation
- possible mechanical damage (motor/prop/frame/sensor issue) from water + impact
I forgot if I was on sport mode or normal both but I tried both of them and it's kinda similar.
