Eachine EV300O and Skyzone Sky04X are the best goggle they have ever made (better than HDO2 & Orqa?)

    I had the Sky 04X for months unopened in new condition, then noticed the V2 version is out now with upgraded DVR to 60FPS! Thankfully I was able to return the origionals and now have the Sky 04X V2. Yes, it's worth it as they are also with latest firmware that works great.

    I had the problem that it was impossible for my left lens to focus. I opened the goggles and fixed it, here is how:
    Btw... Warrenty is probably gone after this.
    For the people who have the same problem.... You can open the goggles and take out the lens. Its secured in its bajonet slots with 2 brass bushes and 2 little screws. Take them out, pull the lens out.
    The lens stack consists of 3 lenses in 1 package, hold together with a threaded ring on top, and a plastic spacer in between the top lens and the package of the two other lenses.
    Screw the ring out, take the lenses out carefully with gloves.
    The problem is most likely in the lower 2 lenses (closest to your eye). Its super easy to put these lenses together so that they are tilted. This is what went wrong during production in the factory. Assemble them in such a way that they fit nicely into eachother, they should have almost no radial play. Keep it all really clean and if needed whipe with isopropanol. Assemble it all back and its done. Hopefully this helps other people.
    The most scary part for me is opening the goggles without breaking the casing.
    Good luck

    I always thought Eachine was just a Banggood tag name, they regularly use that name for any manufacturer without brand presence so it can be sold with something on the badge. Eachine can then come from any unknown source.

    The Sky02's were already pretty nice, Skyzone certainly know what they're doing.
    I must say for something with as long a "service life" as goggles I wouldn't necessarily go with a company like Eachine.
    Personally I'm gonna shoot for used Aomway v1's, I really like the simplicity and the weight/ form factor etc. plus they gave a great picture for me and are not too expensive which is my main decision factor. ;)

    I own both hdo2's and Skyzone 03O's and the thing you said about "screen door" effect baffles me. Both goggles are higher resolution than analog video is passing along. I find that the image actually looks more crisp in the skyzones because the size of the screen (pixels per inch) better matches the actual video quality of analog. HDO2's on the other hand only make a bunch of flaws and lack of clarity in analog signal much more apparent imo.

I recently purchased the sky04l v2 and I keep seeing people complain about the updates to the module firmware. Some say don’t update others say go for it. I can’t find any information on this and I updated mine as soon as I got them before I actually started looking. I don’t know if I’m getting the best performance or if my firmware is one of the bad ones. I’m fairly new to the hobby and I come from the ev800d goggles. Performance seems about the same. Do you know about any resources to tell what module version I may have and what firmware will work best on it? Is there anything like that? Thank you again for everything you do!

    I absolutely HATE HATE HATE the fact that I'm coming into this hobby at this moment in time. Currently I'm using the EMAX box goggles that came with the Tinyhawk Freesyle II RTF kit. But I knew going into that kit that I would likely want to upgrade. I already have a Taranis x9 lite radio to replace the radio from the RTF kit. (I didn't realize that it doesn't do D8 mode though, so I've had to order the irange IRX4 lite module. It's currently in shipping from Banggood wish me luck with that!) But now I'm down to the point where I want to upgrade my goggles. It seems like a foregone conclusion that everything will be sliding into Digital in the very near future. So do I invest in an analog option like any of the ones you showcased in this video? Or do I hold out and go completely DJI which is a huge cost output, but seems like an inevitable destination regardless. I'm torn.

  • @paulmurray5338
    @paulmurray5338 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    Hi Josh, both options seem good value to me it's dependant on your use in my opinion, if your flying long range a decent antenna is more important than rapid fire as far as I can tell. If your flying kiss Dji is probably not the goggle for you and I'm guessing it's only a matter of time before digital modules become a thing. Personally I'm reasonably happy with analogue especially in terms of value for money. The dji system is interesting but I wouldn't use the control link over my crossfire so I'm more likely to upgrade to a digital module once these become available and therefore an interim quantity goggle like these are an interesting prospect. I currently use Sky02's and besides their frustrating menu I've loved them since purchase and they've never let me down!

    As someone who purchased FatShark HDO2s recently as a replacement for my Aomway Commander V1, I have to say aside from the screens and the diopter adjustments (both of which are admittedly awesome) the FatSharks feel like a backward step even compared to my old goggles.
    Takes 2-3S batteries but only has warning at 7.0V which isn't adjustable? Seriously? You can't even use the 18650 case they supply with that warning voltage, unless you like constantly recharging.
    Also the DVR and menu interface are noticebly crappier than even my Aomways, let alone the Skyzone interface that seems light years ahead.
    To my disappointment it seems people have been whinging about the lack of these features for years and pretty much nothing has come of any of it, except the HDO2s have a power button that doesn't even work as a power button out of the box.
    And now Red Cat is buying Fatshark, that much touted service network looks a bit shaky, particularly if you can only reasonably buy through Banggood (unless of course you like paying 20 - 30% more for a locally delivered product) and you are then asking for local service.

    Hi Joshua! I love your videos! You have helped me out so much with info as I am trying to get into FPV flying . I was wondering have you tried to mount a sharkbyte to the O4x ? I havent seen any videos on how this works and if it will fit onto the O4xs. It may be a dumb question but I am a noobie when it comes to quads. Thanks again!

I only use dji and everything works and after a year it's all steel working and I have never had any failure.

    Nice, but how did you swap the face plate? I have watched a number of reviews of these goggles, reviewers talk about it, but no one shows how to do it...

      @@maciejwilczynski407 yeah - I've figured it finally out too - my initial mistake was that I tried to pry the original face plate starting from the top - and it turns out to be where it fits the tightest. Later on I tried from underneath and it came off super easy...
      Another challenge this goggle gave me was installing TBS Fusion module - the module bays are way too small to fit it - I had to enlarge it using Dremmel and also grind the edges of the printed boards of the module itself to the point I was afraid I might have damaged some tracks on it... Luckily everything works, but I hate how incompatible those parts are... Even the fitments of the original Rapidmix module is really flimsy - it's so easy to pull it out/bend the pins when you accidentally touch the antennas... I finally secured the module/cover using thermal glue.

    They all should either be working on HD goggles, or on getting the price of analog goggles a couple hundred lower than HD goggles. You can buy DJI, and an air unit for about the same as fat sharks, and rapid fire. HD quads cost about 75.00 more that a top analog setup, from what I hear it's worth the extra money. I'll find out soon.

  • @LucianoVeryNiceHi

    Hi Joshua. Thank you again for your work, you helped me a lot reach the informed decision. I am subscriber now, I am liking your videos, and I will also head out to Patreon (I am not fishing for a "thank you", I just wanted to publicly disclose it so I could maybe encourage others to do so, if they haven't already).
    I did want to comment a bit from my point of view and elaborate on my choices.
    I recently bought SkyZone 03Os and I did buy diopters from Optic Fischer. I have cilinder; built-in focus would not help me and without being able to use diopters, that's not the best vision for that much money. Putting in custom diopters should be a no brainer for the top tier pricing of the goggles, should it?
    Faceplates from SkyZone are a great solution because I am very white, not Asian at all, but I am also fairly large dude (6'4") and to my bigger head, flatter faceplate fits much more comfortably than a "curved" one. I know you're trying to be correct every time you talk about it, but we can maybe shift to describing it with ... flatter and narrower plates that fit face shapes differently, leave the races out of it , don't let assholes define your language :)
    I also bought an adopter module for goggles, just to make sure I am forward-compatible even tho I haven't started changing VTXes yet. All in all, I am very satisfied with my recent purchase, I think I made great choices here for my valet, without compromising the quality. 372 euros for the goggles and adapter, 80 more euros for a set of diopters for a total of ~450 euros (sans extra receivers). I don't think you can do much better in EU.

And even when i wanted to upgrade my googles to something Analog the Eachine & Skyzone Cobra X would still be a damn good preorder pick..

      EV200 was a good budget option 3-4 years ago- now are the same price as the EV300 and not worth the price.
      EV300 has latency bugs for some people.
