Testing HDMI out of the Avatar system and new FW update! Fatshark Walksnail Digital FPV system 

on paper, the Fatshark system is faster at 22ms vs DJI's 28ms. While I haven't done range testing myself, RR's channel showed range being comparable. Unfortunately it's hard for me to find a spot here in socal where I can do a range test safely.... but I'll see wussup

The DJI goggle V2 was good, but I'm sold on the goggle 2. Sorry Fatshark, it's been a pleasure but, I just found someone way more attractive and up-to-date. It's been lovely spending time with you, but you became old-tech and boring to be around. After all these years you didn't care much about improving to keep me around, now the competition showed up you decide to wear lipstick?! I know it might hurt, but, you just can't beat the beauty of the feature-loaded DJI's goggles 2. Welcome DJI to my FPV world, but be aware that I'm also flirting with HDZero, she really is an eye-catcher too! 😁

I appreciate that!

they're gold now... any new monitor gets the blue screen of death

He will not becouse DJI will be better. But maybe on fatshark V2 they will be on DJI level. But hey DJI will realise V3 anny time now.

yea DJI at this point in time is simply better and proven. Teradek is in a whole different area of video transmission aimed at cinema cameras. That wouldn't be an apples to apples at all.

The betaflight osd isn’t recorded on the dvr. Joshua bardwell mentioned that in one of his videos on it. If you watch any videos people record from the hdmi out you can see the betaflight osd there. Rotor riot posted a couple live streams on Facebook that show the osd with this system.

@@JZEFPV Cool, thanks for that info. I've since seen those videos, and you're right! Looks good.

Dork

Bumping this 😊

unfortunately as of now, the HDMI out includes the OSD stuff. Would definitely love to have a clean output as well

Homie, do i have news for you.

@@NotShuba yep, saw it with in a few hours of it being announced!!! Hopefully they stick to the December 10th release date...

Yes 👍👍👍👍👍

I would imagine that adding a capture card would increase latency to your end monitor. Can't answer the bitrate question because only "standard" works right now

those are the new 2306 aerolites... just released them on www.ummagawd.com

@@ummagawdFPV siiick. Thanks!

noted

It’s a standard hdmi out so probably?

Don't waste your money on anolog... Trust me when I say you'll eventually switch and be like why did I spend all that money in the first place lol. Its a good skill to know how to make anolog drones... But seriously just jump straight to digital you won't regret it.

Listen to the Droneguytoronto, you are just wasting your money and will be hurting your flying skills as it will take you longer to get confidence in hitting small gaps etc. Analog is dead, long live digital!!

Also you don’t need audio from the quad, nobody but Mr Steele does that.

As another newbie here I went digital straight away and these guys are right… being able to see every twig and blade of grass has been great for confidence in flying around especially hitting gaps. The audio unless you’re flying miles away you can hear the quad they’re loud enough

good question

I've actually found the older ones that don't blue screen of death, to be pretty fast. But you're right that some monitors can add latency. Unfortunately this is the only one I have (other than a TV... but that would definitely add latency).

Yes, approx 10ms apparently. Seems like they traded less compression for more latency. I'm sure in small goggle screens when flying it looks pretty good, and that's what matters for FPV but watching this on my laptop, every frame I paused with grass in it has huge amounts of smearing still. It is much better than when first released though so hoping things can keep improving, as long as it's not at the expense of latency though, as that would be a killer for me.

that is definitely on the list of things to test

Thank you. I have a club member who bought a system and will see how it plays with DJI soon.

They're 420p at best with constant snow...🤔😳😮😏😏😏🇬🇧

if 25 is this good now, I can't imagine what 50mb looks like. Let's just hope the latency stays the same

yessir

lol new aerolite 2306

Well you bought the systems,15 how ridiculous.

I think the companies actually prefer having us pay for new goggle units. So I don’t think they view it as a mistake at all.

Watch Josh Bardwell's video on the updated firmware - there was significant stuttering. Enough that JB felt that he was on the verge of immediately losing video, so he turned around.

yes... noticed them in flight (in goggles) as well. I suspect the high RF environment I'm in

Lol right

We usually don’t throw ice cubes in our coffee. Our iced coffee is made with vanilla ice cream and whipped cream on top 😉.

@@disco.volante that sounds delicious :)

I'll be sure to have more iced coffee cameos

@@ummagawdFPV thank you :) still, awesome review!!

I'd say we've been told!! thanks though; education may include at least a single reference... An OTG cable has a micro-A plug on one end, and a micro-B plug on the other end (it cannot have two plugs of the same type). OTG adds a fifth pin to the standard USB connector, called the ID-pin; the micro-A plug has the ID pin grounded, while the ID in the micro-B plug is floating. USB On-The-Go - Wikipedia [just a small reference to get started] still insignificant without an application for the full educational immersion!! Great point ya made for sure!!

@@k4x4map46 in other words, won't work unless it's an otg cable.

Not sure OTG is the right spec, IIRC OTG specification is designed for data only, but has largely been replaced by USB-C dual role. This should just requires cable designed for "HDMI Alt Mode for USB Type-C", which I am not sure if its compatible with Thunderbolt 3(type C connector) Alt Mode that Apple uses.

@@MysteryD for sure totally understood!!

@@xyse247 otg is data and power, I can't say what makes it different than regular cable, I just know they won't work for this sort of application
