@filiped7298 4 года назад

Thanks for the video. Wondering how the TBS app will work. An app has a tremendous potencial: another way to check channel settings and strength (with an easier layout), use the phone as live view to share with spectators and save DVR’s. Looks promising. Let’s wait for some updates from TBS and we’ll see.

@thaddeusj83 4 года назад

Ahh and this is how remote I d will be implemented.

@Gosuminer 4 года назад

This, exactly! VTX Follow and telemetry data to the Fusion module are just decoys to make us swallow the Remote ID pill.

@Mikechin517 4 года назад

@@Gosuminer not all all my boys. first of all remote ID hasnt been passed and there are 0 guidelines setup yet so theres no way we could develop a remote ID system, as wed need to know the guidelines of the bill. #2 TBS would never make remote ID mandatory if we ever implemented the Feature for you to use.

@Gosuminer 4 года назад

@@Mikechin517 I see, thank you. If remote ID is passed I can understand that TBS will need to support it to enable pilots to comply with such a law. I welcome the commitment to leave the decision to the pilot to use remote ID or not. Maybe TBS has big plans with the TBS cloud but I would prefer my devices to talk to each other only and not to some database I do not control. Other customers may see that differently, this is just the feedback of someone who has just invested 450$ in Crossfire :-).

brainFPV is a highly impressive jar of smart cookies. the little things(vector imaging) are what matter. I wonder how two modules like this work together in a pair like the new Eachine EV300Ds for exemple.

@beubeurk 4 года назад

I still don’t understand what the cloud is for? Why can’t the fusion and the crossfire module just talk to each other via WiFi? Why does it have to go to a cloud in between?

@alphapapa77 3 года назад

I was thinking something similar - using an ad-hoc wireless network.

@solderbuff 3 года назад

I think, it's just technically harder to implement. One of the devices needs to be a server, another needs to be a client, one is AP, another is STA. But if you have a central server, both devices can operate as clients and just gets simpler.

@MrSabram07 2 года назад

Does TBS go out of its way to be as confusing as possible?

@Painless360 4 года назад

Please watch the recording of Trappys launch and demo video from 10/Jan2020 in the TBS lounge where he shows how it works and covers some of the detail in more depth than I could here under NDA.. More videos coming as I am able to. Some really cool stuff coming..

@juggalizzle75 4 года назад

So in it's current state can you control your vtx or crossfire module settings in the module osd? Or is that in the future? That is the most exciting aspect for me. Anything to ditch the slow and finicky lua script for those of us that use the micro module.

@gc9n 4 года назад

Today in TBS Facebook page there will be a presentation from Trapy with all those things you are talking about,. The Fusion Firmware of the current Video is Way outdated. And i am sure there are some "Ground Breaking Stuff" you do not expect!! at least for UI

@mbezik 3 года назад

Any chance of a video describing the menu functions of the fusion v2? I noticed there are a lot of new functions in the settings that aren't even explained on the official fusion manual from the TBS website

@Painless360 3 года назад

Any ones specifically?

@mbezik 3 года назад

@@Painless360 Thanks for getting back to me, the main ones I'm struggling to find info on are: Settings - VTX SYNCH, DYNAMIC VTX and MUTE VRX

@mbezik 3 года назад

Marc Stelzner got back to me about those features, he said he's working on an updated manual that will include them...vtx sync - if your vtx is connected to the crossfire rx, they will sync. auto= set a channel on the fusion and the vtx will follow...dynamic vtx- like the crossfire dynamic power. for this id wait for the non-internet based connection...mute vrx- no sound from the vtx will be passed to the goggles. Updated manual coming in a couple of weeks

@MindOfBoomBoom 4 года назад

I bought this a while back when it first came out, at the time TBS kept promising to upgrade the receiver antenna unit for $10. do you know if that Unit ever became available? it would replace the antenna unit under the screen?

I'll be making updates as I get the detail.. Stay tuned!

@borg1874 4 года назад

Sorry Lee, but it seems that WiFi to your phone will end up as a FAA transponder of sorts. Is TBS looking to get ahead of the curve on technology to pin point drone operators? other than that, the rest of this tech is cool. Nice review Lee.

@Painless360 4 года назад

Please watch the recording of Trappys launch and demo video from yesterday in the TBS lounge where that is discussed at length...

@jameslawrence8050 4 года назад

I see the point of connecting the system to a mobile phone (although I do not quite see now the kind of benefits we could get, but I am sure there will be interesting ones!). What I am wondering is: because the link via Crsf is so good, could there be some video passed through like that and then linked back to the goggles?? Smart audio already enables the transfer of info of the FC to the goggles...

@Painless360 4 года назад

Ability to have the RX and TX always OK the same channel and sync automatically. Dynamic VTX power management based on RSSI or range. Have smarter OSD systems running in the goggles not the model... There are lots of things it could do. Should be a fun one to watch...

@Titanfinger 2 года назад

Still wondering, what the advantage is with the tbs cloud. It is still exciting

@Painless360 2 года назад

You make the change once to the settings you want and everything is configured automatically... Happy flying

@concretesnail 4 года назад

I'm keen on the inter connectivity between the module and the crossfire (As a crossfire user), but is it worth getting the module now or waiting for the revision?

@S700KYFPV 4 года назад

All very good, but a bit over engineered. It would be easier to use BT as the Fusion would always be within 1M of the Crossfire?

@jklong03 4 года назад

Then plans are to use the cloud to allow additional functionality (such as race organizers to assign frequencies in a race).
