I used the Fat Shark FSV2445 antenna diversity module for well over 2 years, keeping an eye on various other module reviews and to be honest I couldn't see any real significant difference on the picture quality (regarding interference) between the cheap modules and the more expensive modules, until ClearView & RapidFire turned up with their signal reconstruction from two different receiver modules. The original ClearView too expensive and not goggle friendly, so RapidFire it was, and it was definitely worth spending that much on one.

AKK isn't exactly known for QC, so maybe i got lucky, etc...and for the life of my I could barely figure out the menu system. ALSO BUT: there basically aren't any case covers out there for the AKK. They say the TrueD or something cover fits, but i don't think it does. You really end up compressing the screen badly. I found *one* cover on thingiverse that didn't seem to bad though but wasn't ideal. But i've also had 2 RX5808 units and have been really, really happy with them. Especially the one i put achilles on.

@vapgames3 жыл бұрын
I'm using eachine $24 module with free pirx firmware. I don't really see why i'd need a better one. If you look for tests around, pro58 is slightly worse than rapidfire (i don't think it's worth the upgrade, and actually in some tests rapidfire loses signal before pro58, they are using same receiver modules btw) and pro58 is absolutely better than fusion and wildfire. I'd say you only need rapidfire if you are doing competitive racing on long complicated indoors tracks. Rapidfire technology wouldn't give you more range or penetration, it only slightly improves the multipathing interference. If you just need an analog module for your dji or ground station, don't spend more than $25.

I actually like the simple 3 button interface better than the 4.0's trackball! I found it's damn good and when I compared it to other reviewers test flights, similar to yours, against Rapidfire and the others you tested, it performed about 95% as good as Rapidfire, but without the big price. Could it fly in exactly the same places as Rapidfire, YES! Was there a tiny bit more fuzz to the image, YES. Did it effect the ability to fly at all, NO. Was the Rapidfire better, Yes. But it's also about 4 times the price! And, it had barely any more breakup. Don't believe me, Go check out Gal Kremer's and CurryKitten's tests. One's in a parking garage just like this test, and you'll be very surprised what $40 whole dollars gets you. (make sure you upgrade the Lite to the latest firmware).... :)
