    Thanks for making this video Joshua. A couple of things to note for everyone saying this looks like analog 2.0. 1. This vtx is only 200mW - just wait for a well tuned 1000mW VTX... 2. Fixed latency requires break up in video signal. Anyone that likes to fly analog video will be right at home with this system. DJI feels like playing a horribly optimized video game that never hits its frame rate target (variable latency). Anyone that flies DJI and claims this isn't a problem.... well... it just is. Anyway, this system replaces analog with very near no compromises in latency. It isn't designed to beat DJI - two different systems for different people / use cases

    • @Skankhunt-42-
      @Skankhunt-42- 3 роки тому +3

      Totally disagree. I don't notice latency at all on DJI. I'm 35 and fly for fun not to push the limits. Sharkbyte breakup looks like crap and image quality is definitely far lower than DJI. I bet even on 1 watt your not going to get 10+km range like DJI too. Sharkbyte hasn't changed enough in 2 years to be worth it. If you want the best looking image and don't want fuzzy breakup the choice is obvious. Yeah it has its place but it's still nowhere near as good as DJI. DJI hardware is also bulletproof. Can't say the same for sharkbyte. You get what you pay for. Cheaper system=lower quality and performance. Yeah if you're a competitive racer in the top 100 I get it but for 99% of people who just fly for fun it's a no brainer. It still looks like analogue V2 to me. Just with really shit range.
      And all this shit about closed source DJI. It's been 2 years and both systems have exactly the same "open source" gear. Extra cams and I guess DJI also got the caddx vista. Sharkbyte still has no decent vtx and no signs of all this "open source, everyone is going to make sharkbyte stuff" garbage fatshark supporters keep talking about. Sharkbyte is no different to DJI in this aspect and I think if you look at the massive software improvements and hardware options DJI and other manufacturers has given us, support is far better on DJI as well. I gave up on fatshark after my 3rd set set of goggles that still had the same shell as the last 2, increase in price and still no power button. Boring company who doesn't listen and way too slow to keep up with competition.

      I thought I recalled a video by Chris Rosser that explained that any video system will experience interference and DJI's will request a retransmission when the a packet fails. Could be one retransmission, could be more. I thought but could be wrong that shark byte just doesn't request a retransmission, hence the occasional breakup. I'm running a 200mW analog system and I find it quite flyable. If I do ever go digital, I think I'd tend to give Shark Byte a try partially because I don't need to aquire all new gear to do so.

      Way to lay the smack, it's incredible how DJI fanboys will perform mental gymnastics to claim 35ms latency isn't a problem. It wasn't so long ago that even 20ms was considered un-acceptible and everyone was clamoring for the lowest latency race cam possible.

    The release of the HDZero / Runcam Micro HD proves that there is demand for a good quality Shark Byte camera. And the Micro HD is the best looking camera for Shark Byte so far. So why wouldn't Runcam make more? And Foxeer needs to keep this in mind when they release the Foxeer Apollo for Shark Byte!

    Closer. But I'm still not jealous. So far Caddx Nebula Pro is the only one nipping at the heals of the DJI camera, and that probably has something to do with them sneaking around DJI engineering for this partnership.
    I must say, your opening footage wasn't your best footage and gave me an initial impression of "nope". The brighter sunshine footage midway through your video made me take a second look. For me, the flicker and range is still a huge turnoff, but even the coloring still has that "analog company" look. What keeps me looking at SharkByte is their smaller vtx, and waiting for a nano camera that looks as good as the DJI cam. And yes, the DJI cam can be cut down to nano size.
    But now that we have flown DJI,... I'm not going backwards in visual quality. I may sacrifice some range if they'll enable me to build a TinyHawk II with the visual quality of DJI.

      That and the fact that DJI still has an unfair advantage when it comes to DVR: Its variable, longer latency. As an extreme example, it's kinda like getting WiFi 4k video (at like 500 ms latency) and going "ah yeah, look how much better it is than SharkByte... Sure the picture will look much, much better. But it will be 100% unflyable for FPV.
      As a side note, you could put a system like that (eg video from the GoPro/pro camera) as a spectator video - for example if you're doing commercial shoots - since the latency won't be enough to bother the spectator. But for your pilot goggles you'd still need analog/sharkbyte.

    I ordered mine, but with only 200x released at a time, I wouldn't say selling out in one minute indicates much. And I don't believe it's a full-fledged product until we get the 1W VTx. Even with the good camera, it's still borderline unflyable. Even at 500mW, a single large tree causes a lot of breakup.

    @Nkkdxn45j 3 роки тому

    Interesting. I guess digital is getting there.
    I use analogue exclusively, and frankly, am perfectly happy with it. I would have liked to see exactly the same flight path flown with a good quality analog setup. With how and where I fly, I have not so far considered resolution to be an issue.
    What does it all weigh? I use a (good quality) analogue setup where the camera and VTX together (excluding antenna) weigh just under 4g for 200mW max - only ever use 25mW actually as that is the legal limit here. Since everything I fly is a long way under 250g, weight matters. An extra 10g would be typically 5% or more of the AUW, and that is noticeable.
    Keeping an eye on this, but not yet convinced.

    Thanks again JB. Would love to see someday a quick video on how you tweak the Canvas mod OSD to reposition the elements. I suppose there are some CLI tweaks at work you have to get the OSD elements way at the bottom. I'm waiting for my cams.. I got lucky this week ordering.

      @@JoshuaBardwell thanks. My problem is if I drag osd elements to the bottom of the betaflight osd configuration window..when I look in the actual goggles the placement of those elements are not at the bottom. It's as if the osd setup screen is not a true representation of the goggles screen. If that makes sense. I understand there is a set_InsertElementName_pos=#### setting however I can't find documentation on the #### position values.

    • @JoshuaBardwell
      @JoshuaBardwell  3 роки тому +1

      Change the camera from NTSC to PAL in the OSD tab. That will give you three extra lines of OSD at the bottom of the screen. I'm not sure how this interacts with SharkByte but I betcha that's the issue.

      @@JoshuaBardwell yes that is indeed the problem, I ran into this when converting one of my analog quads. Also if you already set up canvas msp mode, the OSD tab in the configurator will not show the video mode switch anymore, but it is still set at whatever it was before. So you will have to enter CLI and issue the command "set vcd_video_system = PAL"
