Review: FatShark Dominator v2 (Part 2 of 3)



This Portion of the Review will showcase the Quality of the build in DVR Function that outputs to a Micro SD card.






I do not think we ever get tired of stressing this to our friends and clients, that to us this feature is of great importance other then its just something else that it can do.
This is why we are talking about this prior to showing all hardware option and other things.

Having a DVR on the ground side is Extremely Valuable.
Very simple scenatio is you were driving home and saw this beautiful place and decided to stop by and explore it with your RMM250 mini quad.  Unfortunatly u chose to disregard our advice on on having a ground based recorded because why waste money on it because it records it in nothing that you would be proud of posting on youtube!. Probobly thought that we were stupid since you already have a mobius recording in HD.

Well you start flying then about 250 feet away hit a treebrand and spiral straight down. Then you figure out that there was no way you could of possibly reacted fast enough to look up and locate your falling machine before it hit the ground.
Then you start what turns into a 4 hours search mission for your machine, if you are lucky and you do find it.

Or-
Cheapest Scenario, your goggles recorded  everything that you can just replay and try to figure out a general ideo of exactly where it fell and go there to look for it. =1 hour

OR
If you had us build you a machine with FPV gear on it then it will %100 have full OSD(on screen display) of all the important information, but most importantly your exact gps location accurate of up to 4 feet. then you just turn on the very last frame that you have, type the numbers into google maps and go get your machine = 30 minutes tops


Now the quality of this particular DVR is very good as i was expecting it to be a lot worse as i have seen some stand alone recorders do a much worse job.
It is still no where near what we actually see in real time, quality wise, but its closer then most.

Please see the Following Video of one of my 250 frames, with very minimal OSD information as we must not have text obstracting the littel branches we need to squize by when flying the 250 class frames.

the next video of the latest TBS Discovery platforms that we have been making, so far it has gain a lot of popularity due to the amazing hardware selection and tuning.

Review: FatShark Dominator v2 (Part 1 of 3)

This review will be broken down into 3 parts: Part 1 = The goggles, Features, thoughts Part 2 = DVR Quality, How to Operate Part 3 = Accessories, Reception Quality Shoot OUT( 3 different Antennas Tested) Hello everyone, i have recently had a chance to enjoy the FPV experience with many different sets of goggles including the FatShark Dominator v2, FatShark Attitude SD, Skyzone Diversity goggles and even the Quanum monitor/goggles DIY set up. In this post i will focus more on the newly updated Dominators, some people call them version 2.2, because the company had made some major changes in the positive direction for these goggles. As stated above i have tried many different solutions for flying FPV. Let me just say get this out of the way, if you are flying via monitor and not goggles you are doing yourself an injustice because your experience is not at all what it should be. There is no other feeling like feeling that you are sitting inside of your little 250 frame zoomin...

How To: Action Camera SJ4000: Review and Lens Replacement

Hello so from the previous post you might have noticed that i fancy the SJ4000 camera. From all the research that i had done online it seems like there are people who decided to give this camera a try in search of a Cheaper GoPro Alternative and those people all seems to be extremely happy with their pick. Then there are the people who believe that there is a reason the GoPro is double the money for their least expensive model, and that the SJ4000 is most likely half of the camera, and have never seen the SJ4000 in person. To tell you the truth i was one of those people who thought that there is no way that this camera can be on par with the GoPro and was not really going to consider it for my Airial Video device. Well as i learned the hard way in the RC world its best to buy things that people have used and have positive view on. so my camera budget got sliced in half due to the fact that i needed a new set of motors for my build. Then the SJ4000 became a very appealing unit...
