Ok after some technical issues with audio as well as some “debate” over what people were seeing here is the updated version of the video on the difference between the two systems from an RF standpoint on how they behave. I have redone the bulk of the analyser traces for both systems to shown them in a more realistic context. When the original video was done it was at VERY close range and at that point HDZero appears noisier than DJI. That is infact correct at 30cm readings but that’s not reflective of the real world ans now these traces are. It was never intended to be taken as such on that. People should understand that when your measuring like this you are seeing warts and all and there are somethings you will see that have no impact on realworld results. However again I have now set it up to be better in that regard. This video is not to say one system is better than others it’s simply to show actual behaviour and dispel some myths on both sides. I could make this video 3 hours long if I went into ever single aspect and what was Intially meant to be a quick show and tell has turned into a monster already. There are some basic things people also need to understand with any video like this. 1: Levels are not actual measured RF output as there is no reliable way of doing that at this time. 2: Scale is in db and is logarithmic and as such hight deference’s between the carriers shoud not be taken as any reflection of real RF output.

Thanks very much for taking the time to re-do this video, Ian. And for putting up with all the noise (pun intended 😜) around the first video. This was great and very informative. Massively appreciate the effort and hope this helps people understand the differences between how the two systems handle their RF and what people should do to enable as smooth an experience as possible when flying with each other using mixed systems.

Great Job 👍 You are wrong at 24:35 , this noise is coming from DJI goggles not your WiFi 99% of the time I'm flying on R3 and I get strong interference from DJI go back to 23:37 and you can see the 4 spikes from goggles on R3 frequency and you can see this too at 26:40 R3 and R1 THIS is very annoying for analog

Hi Mad, the carrier bandwidth depends on the type of modulation (i.e. what type of QAM is used) and the Mbit that is transferred. Those narrowband signals you see in the DJI FPV system are also acknoledges (not just telemetry). The DJI FPV system is based on an acknoledge sent by the receiver (there are some patents about it). Furthermore, there is a difference in the type of shape of the carrier, this indicates a different modulation. DJI's mosulation looks like a different QAM (256?) Than HDZero (16?), But I need to study HDZero better. Thank you for your video.

Seeing the spectrum just gave me instant understanding why a higher bandwidth with the same power gives less range with something like an ODFM modulation. How is the bidirectional communication on the same frequency solved? with time slicing?

In this video it looks like you always had the DJI system set to transmit on its public channel. I would've liked to see what it looks like when you have it set to a different channel & power up (I'm expecting we'd see it power up on public and then move to the one it's set to, but I'd love to see how long it stays on public before switching, and how cleanly it switches.

Thanks one more time for these kinds of videos, they are the exact same thing I'd be checking out with a spectrum analyzer like that. And taking the time to check for things like high power boot ups under literally every possible configuration is just icing on the cake. Short of having a DJI tech explain why and how they do these things this is best info possible.

Interesting to see DJI look so Narrow onthe scope, but is the real world you can run adjacent to DJI with Analog. We hve been able to fly DJI and HDZero on adjacent channels and HDZero doent' seem to stomp analog in practice. It must just be the proximity to the DJI transmitter with DJI's two-way link swamping the analog RX.

If it's your own wifi router that's causing the random spikes, why on EARTH did you not turn it off? It's extremely annoying, and makes it much harder to see what's going on. Just turn it off, record the video, and turn it back on. Surely you can live without wifi for an hour or so? 🙄

@@MadRC Then it's other people's wifi not your own wifi, which is what you implied with "my local wifi". And it certainly has a very real effect one the video: We're looking for interference such as random spikes created by either fpv system. So constantly seeing random spikes turn up and just being told "yeah, just trust me it doesn't matter" is a bit problematic. Sometimes it's difficult to get a test in a clean area. So note that you did the best you could and leave it there. Don't pretend like it has no effect on the video. Also, no need to get upset 🙄 Everyone needs to know how to handle constructive criticism. Deleting and re-making a video every time anyone gives you any is not a good way to handle it.

@@MadRC anybody with any insight into these programs would like to know the values that are present on the screen and to sense the dBm jumps and simply get an overview of the margins / values being displayed. it is such a little thing to change your scaling so your viewers can read the values that the program says and make an overview themself. DJI's digital protocol ain't noisy, its actually a quite clean digital protocol, with a way more square digital floor then HDzero's protocol, that almost looks like a mixmatch I don't have any air units, I can test and also been analyzing the RF power values on my VTXs and TXs..and even on analog, it's also extremely clear if you put it on an RF power meter with adequate refresh rate, so you can sense spikes.. you will see a significant spike at startup.. as far as I can tell quite normal, at least on the analog VTXs i have tested with RF power meter on my laptop. IF your spectrum explorer /analyzer is somewhat accurate then plug it in directly and check the wattage on the DJI and HDZero..(though use attenuators if its overdo your device-dBm rating) but you sadly not sure how your connected and if you just winding it, or your have a direct SMA line to the VTXs and remove all the variable that can play a factor.. antenna. distance, connections, noise, angle etc etc.. as there is a massive difference between HDzero's 25mW peakfloor, and the DJIs 25mW floor.. and if they are directly connected then you can obviously conclude they are not both 25mW.. the HDZero so-called stabile 25mW floor is way way higher 9:40 then DJIs so-called 25mW floor 10:20.. so if you made an arrangement where its apples to apples.. it goes without saying they are NOT AT EQUAL 25mW values..(its like more then 2´two full segment number jumps on your left dBm axis)

@@MadRC The horizontal axis values at any rate are 100% important. It would be nice to actually be able to *read* what frequencies the various spikes are on, rather than having to wait and hope you read it out for us at some point. Also, this thing of repeatedly taking the video down and reuploading a new version is rubbish. If one segment's graphs are being misinterpreted, just upload a new video with a redo of that segment, and put a pinned comment in the original video linking to it 🙄 No-one likes having information just randomly disappear.
