The only time I beg my dealers fir a half gram less is in my fpv gear 😂😂😂😂😂
First reviewer covering the new firmware update process, take that, Early Birds! Just in time too, just got my moonlight mounted on a wing. Thanks!
not really the first
This is what I have been waiting for.
I believe the DVR board and camera will eventually be available to purchase separate because it is supposedly compatible with existing VTX's.
Thanks for sharing!!! I hope to be able to compensate you one day for all the information you've given me.
Hi Nick, thanks for the night flight. Looks like I’m going to build me an owl. LoL. Be safe, have fun, enjoy family and God Bless. Sincerely, Other Pops
Nice stuff, tnx. for the review.
Hmm - not a huge fan of the image on that daytime (what I think was) 4k flight.. maybe TH-cam compression really doing a number on it but I want to say even the 03 goggle DVR of your backyard looks a bit better... Thanks for the review, Nick
Just two points to note.
At the 1:31 mark - The USB link cable IS still needed to update the VTX. The independ_upgrade.txt file is added simply for the purpose of updating the recording board independently of the VTX board. INside the Moonlight Kit there are two separate boards, one is the VTX (V2 dual antenna version) and then there is is the DVR board. The only way these two boards link together (apart from the MIPI cable for the camera) is with that small USB link cable. So if you lose the cable you will not be able to update your VTX, only the DVR board.
Around the 3:55 mark you mention that you lose the ability to record Gyro data above 2.7k, this in not correct. Gyro data (as a .gcsv file) is recorded at all resolutions, what you are seeing in the Menu only relates to the in-built EIS stabilisation which is only available at 2.7k (in-fact if you have the EIS switched on than, this is when it will not save a .gcsv file as it's stabilising internally). In my testing the EIS is not brilliant and you're best placed to leave this off and just use Gyroflow.
Would you say that the polar cam looks better at night?
@2:05, did you take it out on a full moon night? Any other night is a dis-service to us and the camera for night testing.
Fantastic flying and review, Nick! Thanks a bunch! 😃
I added the video you mentioned in the playlist!
Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
Still can’t make up my mind between walksnail or DJI 🤔🤔
Walksnail! Especially for whoops.
Im also not surprised they still have the silly cable theme still. No longer need usv and power to get yout footage off it, but they couldn make that jumper cable internal.
Kind of confused me. Pro v moonlight, like they were switched at birth. If the pro camera can send 4k to the onboard DVR then I would go with that config
Having just updated the firmware on my new Moonlight and Goggles X, I can attest to the PITA the little update cable is. I feel that if the thing ever leaves my desk, it's gone for good, never to be found again, haha. I used the empty independ_upgrade.txt file with the cable attached to update, but it almost sounded like the cable wasn't necessary according to the video, Nick?
Never mind, answered my own question. The "independ_upgrade.txt" file tells the Moonlight to _Only_ update the DVR board, _Not_ the VTx. To update both, the standard process of holding the Link button down for 8 seconds still applies, with the PITA cable attached. Per the Walksnail Wiki.
Would love to see some penetration testing if possible. Don't know if I am a fan of going back to 2 antennas since they had 1 and then 2 and back to 2 again... Make up your mind Caddx! They should do what DJI does with the 2 ufl connectors going into 1 antenna. Would make life easier I think and for cleaner builds.
They have both versions, the smaller VTXes have either dual or single available depending on what you wanna get
Great video. Do you know if this new moonlight kit works with the gen 1 walksnail googles (fatshark dominator hd walksnail goggles)? Or do you need to upgrade your goggles to use the moonlight kit?
I believe both sets of walksnail goggles as well as the vrx are fully compatible. Of course we do need to ensure we are compatible firmware versions.
@@NickBurnsFPV Thanks. That's good to know. At least I don't need to get a whole new eco system. May have to give this a try but still love my o3s.
@@djdubz My pleasure.
Do you still fly the baby hawk 03? I'm looking for something to fly in the back yard. Any issues?
No I don't fly it currently
Nick: I’m on the fence as to which to purchase. Moonlight or the Avatar Hd Pro kit. What are your thoughts?
Considering I am not very adept at seeing image quality differences I think it comes down to price and if flying at very low light to dark is a priority or not. If not, the pro kit would be the likely choice.
strap a flashlight to it and go fly! never thought that it would take this long (short time) to get something very close to DJI. Where are Orqa in all of this?
Hmm.. is it just me, or does the Pro look like it has a better low light camera than the Moonlight?
Hi,did yours come stock with sharpness set at 5?
yes, that is my recollection
@@NickBurnsFPV
Thx Nick,all my walksnail stuff seems to come with it set to 1,looks ok to me but maybe I'll play about with the settings a bit more.
can i use the moonligt camera on my O3 unit?
Nope, completely different system.
What kind of micro in thix vtx (U3 or U1) ?
I don't understand the question...Not familiar with U3 or U1.
It's NOT only sold as a kit.
Nick, what do you think is the best Video system for 1s flgiht?
Really can depend on what is considered best. Image quality, latency, range, price, availability?
@@NickBurnsFPV I have tryed to fly analog a bunch of times and I the rolling analog static "resets" my brain every time so I should have specified... Best HD video system for 1s flying
@@MadNitr0 the only 1s options are walksnail and hdzero. What is best? I don't know...it depends what each person is looking for. My guess for you is walksnail based on the analog experience you described.
@@NickBurnsFPV thank you for your time Good Sr
@@MadNitr0 sure, my pleasure.
What quad did you use to fly it?
evo3.5 is the one I used the video from.
How to upgrade firmware walksnail moonlight kit 😢 please 🙏 make a vedio
I believe there are several online already. I don't think I have anything to add to those.
Big files, lol.
O3 produces over a GB per minute at 4K60
Snail 4k No sound recording?
no it does not have a microphone
