Great coverage as always. Put a few more packs on the HDzero camera at the night spot this week. Coverage is still a little spotty, but the new foxeer v4 lollipop did seem to help a little. In the clear reception areas, the image looks easily as good as DJI 25mb mode. Very encouraging. If penetration can be improved, it will be very exciting.

@zuldanfpv4634 2 жыл бұрын

Would love to see a video comparing various styles of antennas on the system to see if coverage/penetration can be improved. Eg stubbies vs lollipops vs a normal antenna setup like VAS MadMushroom with a VAS Crosshair. I don’t think anyone has done this yet with HDZero.

Imagine beeing the only relevant premium fpv goggles manufacturer for years while never trying to push the hobby forward, then DJI comes and pushes the technology so far that you cant even come close to compete - and then miraculously a differnet company offers you to a way to still be relavent but instead of trying to go 100% into it and pushing it hard you just go naaaah thats way to much effort lets stick to making obsolete hardware that no one will want in 2 years

Thx for clearing that up ... I saw an FPV airplane vid with this system - and the picture was almost perfect - it broke up only every 30s or so, and then just some mild sparkles - so much nicer than when it's flown in JB's very busy backyard, for instance. This system shines with LOS RF. Got me interested enough to watch this vid - and now I look fwd to HDZ in a house drone - a tinywhoop. And some airplanes. And now I'm gonna go see what's out there.

Its a very big deal that the system is uni-directional like analog, one can presume it will function the same as analog with LOS for that reason, unlike DJI. Isn't the bandwidth utilized per channel identical to analog anyway?

I suggest to simply invite Carl for an interview cause I think he can bring more light into the whole FPV world as he does see it which might be a lot different than our view. I am talking about the maker and seller view, not the world as we receive and talk about it. I guess he has a very clear view what market segments exists, which he is aiming on and which he ignores, same for his tech and what it would need to beat (back others like dji) Might be a possibility cause I guess he would be willing to do so cause I have seen him talking for over an hours and I found it very interesting and somehow different , new aspects. Maybe we should call them Carl''s HD Zero cause that adds the personal touch and value dji never can get . Carl feels responsible, carefull and focussed on what he can and will deliver... Rememer the early days of gaming at home ? Who does not remember the simulator brand SID SID MEYER's Railroad Tycoon of 1990 ? So Carl should evolve the brand cause I guess people would trust Carl's HD Zero more than the HD Zero brand which is a letter salad where the carl's hd zero will be received as carl's cause we remember humans better.

The only thing you forgot was the guy doing the Shark Byte updates resigning, because of the FatShark owner didn't want him to put out so many updates. He's is the issue inside FatShark. The guy hates changes! And it's a looong story... On/off button and so on. HDZero is much better alone. They should contact companies like TBS and Rush to make VTXs, but even if they don't I have much more confidence in this system.

@spikester 2 жыл бұрын

I think it will lead to a lot less lost models, DJI has some very bad recovery issues once it loses signal it can take ages, hdzero is pretty much instant the moment the signal chain recovers to an error rate low enough, not to mention you can still spot a horizon even during the worst receive bERR rates.

Great explanation. I am due for a goggle upgrade(still using my eachine ev100) . My drones(quads) are presently all analog, but its just a question of time before I venture in the digital world. I am really uncertain as to what goggles I should buy. I don't trust dji for any contined support of there V2s, i've rulled out the fatshark dominator HDs for their lack of hdmi input (for any future analog Vrx option)..and I seem to be leaning towards the Sky04x v2 because it has the wider field of view, OLED, good dvr capability, and I hope that the sky04x will eventualy be compatible with a popular and pervasive HD bolt-on VRX... I would be interested in getting your point of view... It would be nice if you did a "Goggle buyer's guide given current market conditions and evolving trends"..

This is just going to be even more confusing if Fatshark is making headsets, and literally no one on their partner channel is using them. If I am just coming into the hobby and I hear that Rotor Riot is owned by the same company that owns Fatshark and no one on the show uses Fatshark as a daily driver there is literally no way I am going to buy Fatshark. Maybe if I am into racing and I see the racers with Fatshark goggles on, but will they still wear Fatshark goggles if HDZero makes their own decent set, or if they partner with someone else to make a decent set?

Long range flyers that will be buying this in droves will have way more endurance equipment & utilize higher gain antennas than most quad pilots ever can or even will. Many have been waiting for a system like this for decades to replace analog, DJI wasn't ever it due to its 13km (and previously shorter) limitations & latency/recovery issues.
