Having seen some other reviews, you might be concerned about picking up an HDZero Freestyle V2 VTX and not getting the full 1 watt rating out of it. Even though Chris Rosser specifically stated that you shouldn't worry about it happening to you, the question is still valid. Let's test mine with a method provided by the HDZero team to see if it was just his or is something actually wrong with this design!
I highly recommend you watch Chris Rosser's Freestyle v2 review here: • This review was nearly...

im not a scientist and i dont spend much time on the bench but in the field mine flew as good as the v1 if not better. on a whip antenna.

@BaconNinjaFPV 8 месяцев назад

yeah same experience here with mine. I would say just a bit better performance than I got out of the v1, but for sure not a quarter of the output I was expecting. Solid little VTX and a nice addition to the HDZ lineup!

@jebrc 8 месяцев назад

Im still on analog well once i get some goggles anyway lol

@Imonlyhuman2 8 месяцев назад

Thank you so much for the update!! Perfect content

@MCsCreations 8 месяцев назад

Thanks for testing it and for all the info, dude! 😊 Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊

@northerntierfpv8947 8 месяцев назад

Can't wait to get it, i hope they are shipping soon. Nice update, thanks!

@mattwilson1305 8 месяцев назад

Newbeedrone says they will ship on 10/7. Don't know about other vendors.

@northerntierfpv8947 8 месяцев назад

Thanks, I heard similar also! @@mattwilson1305

Great video like always be safe thank you.😊

@michaelwilson3946 8 месяцев назад

I was able to fly it a month and a half ago. Teased.. pre ordered two as soon as I could. So tired of waiting lol

@nmrlab3807 4 месяца назад

Thanks for this review. Does this camera/VTX work with EMAX Transporter 2 HD monitor or frsky skyvision hd monitor?

Personally, amp tests that low or less than 5amps, i like to do them thru the meter probes than thru the amp clamp, if I'm trying to get precise with it. Less subsestiable to noise than the clamps are with DC. But thats coming from my 15 plus years as an industrial electrical maintenance experience, now as a electrical/controls/automation engineer. Other than that, i think you got the just of it very well, and did a great job. Me on the other hand... I'll probably be still continuing to rock out in the analog world, until they quit making stuff in analog. However, I'd really love to upgrade my large goofy looking fatshark box goggles 😅

@BaconNinjaFPV 8 месяцев назад

I need better testing equipment, that is for sure, lol. Maybe some day I will have all the fancy stuff unused to have back when I used to do a bunch more component level work....I miss it sometimes. I bet the keep making analog for a loooooong time, so I'm sure you will be able to rock those things for as long as FPV is a thing. Also, id venture to say my 3 system digital goggles are way more funny looking than analog gear so don't worry about looking too funny, lol.

Here my range is not better than my whooplite. Roughly 100m. power consumption of the quad on idle ( motors unarmed ) is 0.02 amps at MAX output power in quad OSD. What do you think?

@MountaineerFPV 8 месяцев назад

Legalize 50watt

@BaconNinjaFPV 8 месяцев назад

I agree! we gonna need muuuuuch bigger quads, lol.

@slogan9105 8 месяцев назад

ill waite till production

@BaconNinjaFPV 8 месяцев назад

That is never a bad plan, no matter what the product is!

@plop386 8 месяцев назад

if you find it low output. think that we are not suposed to go over 25 Mw legaly in europe. what a joke :P not related to vidéo but iwanted to tell it :D

@Vousie 8 месяцев назад

I think 0.8 amps to 1.3 amps is quite a big difference...

@ChrisRosser 8 месяцев назад

Yeah I would say that corresponds to what I was seeing. 8W @250mW output and 14W @1.3W output. As the VTX heats up the power and current draw drops down to around 12-13W @1W output.

@BaconNinjaFPV 8 месяцев назад

I appreciate you validating that Chris :) right off with R1 in max output I settled into a little over 8W but had some peaks up to around 10W. Over time and with heat build up that settled into more like 13W and by the time I was testing R8 max that was about where it was at. I didn't want to run a fan through the whole thing so that the audio didn't get ruined, and that little thing gets to be a hot potato pretty quick, lol.
