For the EV800D, one can acquire a 3D printed insert to increase focal length. There is a guy on eBay who makes them. Standards lengths or your own requirement. It fits between the two sections.
Hey Andy. I have a newer batch EV800D and they freeze on DVR also. The only thing I got is to first power on the googles, start the recording, and after that switch on the airplane camera and vtx. IN that case, when there is noise in the image, the DVR DOES NOT stop recording but goes to BLUE screen. At least when the image is recovered in the screen the recorded video goes from blue screen to image again. It is a solution, but still not how FPV goggles supposed to work.
Hi! I just got ev800d. To my great regret, I have this problem, after bad reception, the recording stops. I tried following your advice, but that didn’t help . dvr records noise a couple of seconds and turns off. No blue screen at all, just noise. Could you write again in detail how you are doing, or maybe you have a video? Thanks!
It's funny, but none of the reviewers seem to care much about the ev800/d popping out to be a screen, but I love it for one big reason: bench work. When I want to check the vtx functionality, change camera settings, etc etc it's been SO NICE to just have a nice big screen rather than needing to use my goggles. Even though I have fatsharks now, i still make use of the 800s.

@@Mindauxx You are a genius! Your trick works good on mine. And its also a good way to don't forget to start recording. @AndyRC you should put this solution in the Video´s information. I think is important enough as a reason to buy or not this goggles.
I higly recommend you get the ev800dm . it has clearer image , better colors , not so much eye strain , they are lighter and fit better on the face.(and you can use glases)
I've bought EV800Ds for $68 on the 11.11. sale (the price was with shipping) and I won't complain in case video file is going to be corrupted when video signal is lost - I'll rather increase video transmitting power.
Had to mod my 800D because the screen was NOT far enough from my face. I don't wear glasses or contacts but I could not focus with the 800D so close to my face. (Maybe I am just getting old) I had to mod them by adding a 1 inch spacer to move the screen further away from my face. I really like the adjustable focal distance on the 800DM, and the lighter weight. I might just consider replacing my 800D at some point, if the image is acceptable on the DMs.
I use my EV800 (Non-D) up to 2km using a big patch antenna with no issues what so ever.. Reason being I cant withstand the super minuscule FOV of fatsharks so I am stuck with box goggles until I find something to my taste.. I bought a pair of these on sale just waiting for them to arrive to compare them to my EV800s.
My EV800D's are my go too goggles(bort by your recommendation)ive had them a year and push them to 200 metres with no problems multipathing through trees is cured by changing the antennas to better ones,DVR is not doing what yours are so mine must be the older type but its a wicked goggle esp for the price.tobyrich also do an exact copy for even less money.
My experience with goggles has been 50/50. My dominator v2 work awesome my HDOs have been sent back 3 times now waiting to get em back good thing I did a 3 year extended warranty. If you get goggles get a extended warranty will save you alot of headaches and stress
Hey Andy,sadly I need to report that in my 3 months old ev800d that bug is still there I've got Flywoo explorer with Tracer and unfortunately they did froze when I've pushed out I wanted to change for DM's (smaller LCD +higher rez+lighter) but I've read on bangood comment section that this bug it's still there present :/ Dam these are such a good goggles for price/performance it's difficult to even look at cobras X when these are in marked imho. I appreciate your reviews man always good videos packed with info's 👍
Thank you for doing this review 👍 I need to buy a good pair of cheap goggles for fpv. I would ha e bought these until I saw the DVR freez !!! Thanks again !!!!
Another solid review. For me it took some time for my eyes to adjust to goggles. Fatsharks. I tought I could never fly fpv. Took me like 10 times wearing my goggles for my eyes to adjust and pick up object detail. I am gonna have to try box goggles one of these days.
Very big thanks about DVR glitch warning. I already was ready to recommend these googles to fellow FPV beginner. Lack of 16:9 screen also suck. Back to EV800D then.
@@AndyRCchannel Ewww, indeed? That is not nice. Did anybody found why it happens? In contrary if Eachine screwed DVR in EV800D too (by owning also EV200D I'm not surprised), what else they changed? I hope that Chinese chars in DVR menu are gone and something nice appeared.
Great review Andy I am just setting my EV800DM goggles up but can't get a clear view through my varifocal glasses even on maximum adjustment of the goggles. I know they do an optical lens zoom screen for the EV800DM will this work for me I'm probably +2 prescription?
Just got the additional Optical Zoom Lens for the EV800DM and now I can see clearly now they where a perfect snap fit into the lugs in the goggles and work extremely well without having the need to wear any glasses now that a bonus.
in this video you report that you can choose the different mode from the single antenna mode, but I did not find this function in the menu. could you give me more details please? Thank you
ive pushed my ev800d hard and never had a issue but fella i was with had skyzones 02x and he wasn't able to get the range i was getting. Ive a few youtube vids of it in action
@@AndyRCchannel They are just over 2 years old. I've had them a good while and been flawless mate. I've wanted to upgrade for bit as don't like the weight of them but after seeing performance of them skyzones 02x I'm more than happy with the ev800d :)
@@controller-man-dan5676 same as mine. This is the worry i beleive if you were to buy them now they would have the same DVR as the ev800DM's which has an issue

nice review as always andy! i have the fatshark recons and the only issue i have is that sometimes the file gets split sometimes inside of a 2 or 3min flight... other than that they are golden! its about the best 70bux i ever spent!
Hey guys I am trying to record. In the manual it says you can replay your video in menu, but I go to menu and I find nothing. How do I record. I have the c 10 sd card as they recommend.
How often have you been 'RAMP CHECKED' by the FAA while flying your drone? How many people can estimate the weight of a drone at being over 250g while flying 100 feet away? Let's not get crazy about the technicalities. Bottom line: If no one complains, no one cares. Fly considerately and no one is going to bother you.
NeilGaede1 exactly I fly both RC planes and quads at a local park near me and as long as I don’t fly over people wait until there is an open field which there usually is considering the current state in the world I am not bothered by anyone even when I fly my 5in quad. Most of the time when people confront me it is to have a conversation because they are interested in the things I am doing and want to buy one. Police have passed me multiple times and have never had a problem. As long as you fly safe and responsibly you should have any problem with the FAA spying on you lol
800d has a bigger screen and is removable so you can use it as a monitor. It is the biggest of both though. 800dm has a bit smaller screen, but a slight bigger resolution. I've got the 800dm and they are perfect box goggles!
when you dont need the DVR is the EV800D still much better becouse of the diversity or is it negligible ? (i want them for the TinyHawk Freestyle 2 (emax))

I had sever eye strain from the Ev800d's, that is until I put a 35mm spacer in them. Now they are amazing. Highly recommended
Same same.
Same, and with caddx ratel or tarsier the image is fantastic!
Where did you place the spacer?

Fantastic flying and review, Andy!!! 😃
Yeah, the DVR problem is a real bummer. 😕
I hope they fix it soon!
Glad to see eachine is doing well in there line up compared to Aomway since they are leaving the Analog scene and moving up to digital.
I have lost loads of flight footage using my EV800d,s ....true,the DVR corrupts once signal is lost 😗.
Yeah, happens on my set as well. Now I'm paranoid and land if I think it may have corrupted.

can I just istall an external dvr like the eachine prodvr? this would fix the dvr problem and I only need dvr to find a lost drone anyways.

Iflight Fpv Goggles vs ev800dm witch one is better
It's going to take a whole lot to make me want to put my Quanum Cyclops down and these aren't quite there yet.
AndyRC - Can You compare Eachine EV800dm vs Topsky prime II ? which is better ?
Sometimes my EV800D turn off mid flight when I use dvr too much.
hello. do you know the specs of the av in jack, for i like to connect my 800D to my mavic air. thanks for the review for compairing the goggles
Never had any corrupt files from my EV800d's, perhaps coz I upgraded before I pushed the limits that far.
Thanks for the great review!!!!
👍😀👍
Looks like ill pass on this pair. But im waiting for good box goggles as a back up!!! Have a good one Andy!!!

Yes, at least on 800D.
Does anyone have the Manual for the Eachine EV800DM goggles? I have the goggles but am in need of the manual. Please!!
Think might just hold off this one until they resolves the dvr issue..
How do the latency compare to fatshark scouts
My ev800dm only get 50 meters. So sad
4 years later they still sell all 3.
Can you use these goggles with hd camera
I'm nearsighted can I use these
I own the ev800d and never had this issue. My only issue with the ev800d is the battery life is terrible
how long have you had yours for?
Does it work with the mantis q drone?
Hi ! Thanks for your presentation ! Are they compatible DJI ?
Best regards
they are not. thx
Only DJI stuff is compatible with DJI stuff.

they are the same
How do yu select "diversity mode" ? Thanks

because otherwise the ev800d look better no?
I personally think the D looks too big and would flop on your face.
I have pretty new EV800D's and I confirm that the dvr is trash
My DVR works great. Never had it glitch once.
Another commented that is you start the DVR recording before you power on the drone, signal cutouts don't affect the DVR anymore.
