Are you ready to give up analog now?

@robschiii 2 года назад

Noo I think analog for racing ist the best way. Cheap and with a good camera the best choice. And for freestyle also best choice. And Longrange also..

@unklStewy 2 года назад

I have a few quads rigged with HDZero, and I just received my first 1Watt. Although I tend to fly cinnewhoops and I like the clarity of HDZero when I am trying to fly smooth and keep tracking on a subject. Analog still has a place in my toolbox though. I don't actually own any DJI gear so that is a level of built in bias.

@mattiawolffpv7157 2 года назад

Naaaah Monsieur Bardwell. Great video, I'm super interested in the evolution of HdZero, but I have 8 quads and a wing and I'll stick to analog exclusively for the price of digital setups. If I were to choose, I'd choose HdZero mainly because it's not DJI, so you're right about that. I feel like giving my money not to a multimillion dollar multinational but to a company closer to the hobbyists.

I have switched from analog to HDZ for my mountain surfing quad flights. It gives me slightly higher image quality than analog does to avoid obstacles and see the home point. I. Be loving it for this over analog. This test was relevant for covered structured flying which i never do. IMHO the vtx is a little too large plus the need to add a BEC for my build should have been built in. Thanks for an excellent, fair, review that covered all types of quad flying.

HDZero definitely has its place. I'm happy with the better image quality over analog in my flying environment. The antennas used are definitely more finicky compared to analog.

@invertedflow 2 года назад

Excellent review Joshua! I think you nailed it regarding the cultural choice. At this point in time, for my type of flying, I am without question missing out a bit by deciding to fly HDZero instead of going DJI. However, I am happy to support a company like HDZero as I want to see more competition in the digital space and I think having companies that are fully committed to the FPV hobby will, ultimately, improve things for us. So I decide to take a hit in order to support the potential HDZero has. Hopefully it won't bite me back 😆

@RyanQuellet 2 года назад

Nice and fair review. I think your conclusions are spot on. Parking garage performance is lower than I'd expect, but I also don't fly in that environment. Biggest benefit of HDZero vs other digital options is the breadth of applications (1s whoop to 5" freestyle / race to long range wing) and a healthy community relationship with the owner, Carl. Thanks Carl for working so hard for us!

@grim-upnorth 2 года назад

The reason a lot of people "love" HDZero, is because it's not DJI. For me, it sits bang in the middle between analogue and DJI. It's better image quality (when it's clear) than analogue, and better video latency than DJI. Personally, I would almost categorize it as digital analogue, if that makes sense. I would certainly never compare it to DJI anymore though. That's like comparing a mid sized saloon car which does great mileage, to a supercar. They're not trying to be the same thing and they're both great at what they ARE for.

@jpsalis 2 года назад

it's digital, but it doesn't deal with errors the same way DJI does, so it looks very similar to analog at times.

@SenorGato237 2 года назад

As a radio technician the idea of powering the VTX directly off the battery that is powering 4x motors makes me ill. Snark aside, I don't think the issue with your parking deck test is power, it's other issues. If you can manage to not freeze, I think a 500mW test there would be interesting. When multipathing and electrical service are causing the interference more power won't always fix the problem, and may even exacerbate it. I'd be willing to bet that the DJI link has some very sophisticated signal filtering in play here. Another test you could run would be to leave the transmitter in one spot in the garage, and take a spectrum analyzer around to various points, figure out some SNR and noise floor. This would really help demonstrate multipathing noise.

Been flying analog and have accepted its limitations. I am platform agnostic. But when DJI came along it was expensive to switch. Got on digital cheaply when the SharkByte/HDZero vrx was $99. So far, I like the variants (whoop, freestyle, etc.) offered by HDZero. Also like the transparency of the HDZero development trajectory and its user community. My new builds will have HDZeros.

a flying buddy of mine just got a HDzero system and i have to say, it looked way, way better than analogue. but the thing we both were amazed of was that he on ch1 400mw with HDzero, me on ch1 DJI 50mbps 700mw we had no interface that would give problems flying. when he passed straight in front of me, i've gotten some micro stutters in my feed, and when i flew straight in front of him he's gotten some minimal lines and a few sprites, when he was flying analogue we had to stay very far apart on channels, and i would still blow his video out if i passed him. so now we can fly together without having to check channels or even announcing plugging in.. i'll stay on DJI for my quads (and analogue for my long range planes for many reasons) but will advice anyone who doesn't want to go DJI digital to ditch analogue and go HD zero..

@@revfpv7908 Ya, when it goes it goes, meaning you see a black screen, but if you put analog or HDZero up against DJI at the same power level in the same NLoS situation I think you'd find analog and HDZero have completely "gone" to 100% static well before DJI gives up. At least that's been my experience (I tested it fairly extensively). I find that I just have to be cognizant of the warning signs DJI provides (Focus mode, lower bitrate, a few stutters) and not just keep pushing it deeper out of LoS until it quits. In many hundreds of flights, I've only lost the signal completely about 4-5 times and I'm almost always pushing it at or just beyond LoS. Couple weeks ago I purposely flew behind a huge rock 2.5 miles out, signal cut out for about 1.5 seconds, and recovered, which is to be expected.

Nice test that you did. I would be interested in seeing the results of this test done in the summer also. The reason why is that leaves on trees tend to block signals. Now I know the test was in a parking garage. But if you was to use it out in the area you will be most likely putting leaves between you and me the copter. As radio frequencies rise in the spectrum it is also becomes more bouncy. And things light leaves will absorb signal also. There is so much fun things on this subject it's crazy. But needless to say. my brother and I are ham radio operators and in the winter 440Mhz goes further than it does in the summer. Reason leaves. Nice video loved everything about it

@JekleFPV 2 года назад

There’s one gripe I have with this VTX that Mads Tech pointed out that is missing from this review: The update port and the MSP/power port should be switched around. Right now, either the update port is buried in the quad with the MSP port/wires sticking out the side, or the update port is sticking out the side along with the mipi cable and pigtail/antenna. It would make a lot more sense to have the antenna connector, Mipi connector and MSP/power connector on opposite sides of the VTX, in line with the quad and away from the props. And then have the update port sticking out on the side of the quad. On a side note, any chance of seeing a test of TrueRCs patch antennas for the HDzero VRX? Perhaps on a day when it’s not freezing in the parking garage?

Another big benefit is the cost factor. I don't know how things are in the US but here in Europe I can get my hands on a HDZero system including the 1W VTX, Scout HD goggles and a Foxeer Digisight Micro V3 for about 420-450€. If the 200mW VTX is enough you are looking at 400€. With DJI I would have to pay 600€ for the goggles only, let alone the air unit and camera... This was the decisive argument for me to go with HDZero even in this pretty early state and as a beginner.

Really good video dude. I race analogue/HDZero and freestyle dji. You probably went easy on hdzero and I love HDZero 😂 Clear fair test, I think for penetration it went dji, analogue, hdzero.

Sounds like someone should make hand warmers for RC controllers. Gloveless soft IR reflective enclosure that uses a LiPo for resistive heat and maybe small fan to circulate.

You have to get some tips from captain drone about flying in coldness, he has flown in -20°C so -4°F sometimes

Flying underneath yourself in a parking garage is a special kind of a torture test for video - is it possible the directional antennas on the HD zero vrx hamstrung it a little more than the competition? Regardless you pushed me over the edge on trying one of those 1W vtx’s on a proper 5” freestyler…currently I’m only starting to experiment with ultralights and HDZ

Great video. Been holding out for a long time for HDzero to catch-up. The outcome of the parking garage testing was really disappointing. For me the cost outweighs the benefits of buying in. Think its time to either bite the bullet and go DJI or just stick with analog...

thanks for the review , yep hdzero is hungry to deliver , thanks dji for your sealed system but it's time to be cracked unless you give us 4k resolution . or a micro tx with 25mw 1s board 😍

The power meter accuracy may be due to a switching attribute of digital. Same thing happens with our kenwood radios dig vs analog with our watt meters.
