really nice review man!! I went with the O4Lv2's due to the lower cost and I really love them. Also, one of my favorite non-image related features is the cyclic recording of the DVR and follow mode. Really nice to never run out of DVR storage and having start/stop automatically with the signal lock. As far as the module, any indication as to what Mix vs Mix1 Mix2 is within the RF normal mode? Havent been able to figure it out in documentation or anything online. One other thing to note is that if you go with 3rd party RF module, you loose the ability to change the band and channel from inside the goggle's OSD. You have to take them off and use the buttons on the module in that use case.

I unfortunately don't have mix1/mix2/mix3, that has just recently become a thing in the last month or so. Skyzone quietly did that. But it may not be doing much at all for you, accordinfg to skyzone. Here is a quote from Skyzone Daniel about it, when I asked about why some new goggles are shipping with the option of 3 different mix modes now, but they don't seem to do anything: _"...the MIX1/2/3 is for our new RX, should be ready this month" and he also stated "MIX1/2/3 is mix, the 3 different mix mode need totally new hardware design, we will release the new RX(steadyview X), which have screen on the receiver."_ ~ skyzone daniel on facebook So it's something to keep an eye on, but with your 04L or 04X and older steadyview module, it seems according to them it does nothing. I believe the mix1/mix2/mix3 modes were made to address the exact problem I complain about in this video, the one-size-fits-all mix software just doesn't work right with every setup. The latest 2.3 firmware is the best they've ever came up with, but even that has flaws.

Seems to happen more often with linear VTX antennas.

I just ordered the sky04x, should be here Monday! I've had the fatshart attitude v5 for over 3 years, and have never looked at another goggle. I got a nice bonus, and a raise, so I got myself some sky04x. I plan on putting either the walksnail, or hdzero vrx on them this christmas.

Nice review 👍. I looked at tons of different goggle brands, specs, reviews, and finally ended up with the SkyZone o4Ls. I just couldn't justify blowing any more cash than I did. Same as your o4x but lcos instead of oled. It was a big step up from my BetaFpv VR01s. Im enjoying the Skyzones so far and like that if your having issues with the mix receiver that sometimes you can fix it by changing to a different mix (IE mix1, mix2, mix3) and find a setting that will work good. I fly at work sometimes in a building full of concrete and steel so I can very easily get the red out or blue out and noticed that many times mix2 or 3 works best, but outside at my house mix1 works best. I have never had blue outs or other color outs when flying outdoors, but have used different mix settings to clear up interference. I have tried the Lumenier AXII patch set which does not appear to be very good for me. I found them to not be much better than stock dipoles. Changed to a Foxeer Echo2 patch and a Foxeer long lollypop with pretty good results. I have also noticed that little Firefly baby nano is pretty sketchy indoors unless on Mix 1 or 2. None the less it is nice having such a great set of goggles and so many settings to choose from. Have had them for about 5 weeks now and loving it. The DVR kicks butt.

Super thoughtful comment here, I appreciate it. So, I was extremely lucky and purchased these during an end of summer sale with a 15% off coupon and justified that to go with OLED, but you're right it's not necessary and you can save even more foregoing it. I'm in with these for the long haul, hopefully. About the mix1, mix2, mix3 modes. Mine don't have this. This is something that skyzone just quietly introduced into their newest batch of goggle receiver without telling anyone! I think they finally listened to the feedback that one mix mode was just NOT going to cover every single camera and vtx situation. The 2.3 beta firmware was their best attempt, but as you can see it still had some issues. Skyzone confirmed yesterday that there will be a completely new module that they are calling the Steadyview X for those who want to have the 3 mixing modes (mix1, mix2, mix3), as it is a hardware change in their receiver to enable it. It will be released within about a month, and will have a screen on it as well. I hope I can get it because I'd like to put it to the test.

Caddx issued a statement that the vista will not be end of life and that they’ll keep producing it. But that another major production / shortage is coming, so take that for whatever it’s worth. I agree that overall right now it’s a really tough time to decide on what to buy. Buying in to DJI V2 goggles right now is a huge risk with the leak of V3. Then you have HDzero who has stated their official goggle will come out, and that it’s going to support analog modules as well. I can more confidently say that I feel at least you’re not likely to see the HDzero goggle available to purchase until the end of this year, and even then supply may be limited. It’s honestly a lot simpler and cheaper right now to just get a cheap pair of Eachine EV800DM box goggles, stay with analog, and see how things play out at least over the next few months. I would say do that, this way you’re not hung up on which piece of expensive tech to buy into. Analog is not going away entirely any time soon, either. Digital is wonderful but is still costly, and supply chain issues overall are driving up costs and hindering parts availability. We were never dry on analog parts but it was a good 4 to 5 month period in 2021 that the DJ caddx vista and “good” DJI cameras were just GONE from the market. Kind of takes the whole confidence boost you get from digital down a notch when you may not have a replacement on hand when something breaks…

@@derrickcollinsworth7631 i got confirmation from where i bought it that me opening it would not void the warranty. i did, found nothing, put it back together again - and then it magically worked. i would suggest trying to power it from the USB C jack, see if that works? (i later put in a cable with the wrong polarity and instantly fried the power circuit, but can still use it from USB C. they seem to be very separate ways of powering it )

Still worth buying a year on?

It’s no longer the best choice for analog and HDzero. The HDzero goggles are the best for analog and HDzero. The HDzero goggles also have a higher refresh rate (90hz) so they’re better for running walksnail too. They have a better analog deinterlacing method too. It comes down to how much do you want to pay for the better hardware. However, let’s do a cost breakdown. Sky04x are $529, HDzero goggles are $599. HDzero goggles are really $639 in my case… because it is $39 shipping for me to the United States from hd-zero’s website. While I can get skyzones in stock now with free shipping stateside. So, if you want analog with HDzero goggles you will need to factor in the cost of a rapidfire module ($100-$150). I’ll be generous and just add $100 for rapidfire assuming you can find a used one. All total for an HDzero and analog experience for me, choosing HDzero goggles would be $739 USD. All total for an HDzero experience with the skyzones would be $748 since you’d have to buy the VRX. The choice for flying HDzero is clear: buy the HDzero goggles, it’s the same price for lesser hardware. The biggest question is: do you WANT to fly HDzero? If you do not want to fly HDzero, and only want to fly analog then the skyzones are still a pretty good deal and you can sometimes get a good discount on them. You can sometimes get them sub-$500 too, when sites run 10% off coupon codes. That’s not really something I’ve seen with HDzero goggles yet. They are made in limited batches and you have to wait a while to get your order. The SteadyView v3 module which these goggles now ship with has also resolved the problems I mentioned in this video, I did an update regarding it. It’s also worth noting that means these goggles are still very much alive as far as Skyzone is concerned when it comes to development. But the displays are only 60hz which is probably the biggest limiting factor of them as a platform. If you have the $$$ though if you don’t plan to fly HDzero, their goggle is truly the “Swiss army knife” of FPV goggles so to speak. The software platform is open source. It’s currently the best goggle to run analog, the best for HDzero, and the next-best goggle to fly walksnail on if you want that too. So many things to consider. 🙃

Don’t loop your hdmi cable unless you’re willing to have a spare on hand, it will significantly reduce the lifespan of your cable.

It hasn’t failed me yet doing this - but I’ll keep it in mind, I don’t like that cable anyway and I’m seeking to replace it an HDMI ribbon cable. It’s been known to crap out randomly.

@@JohnCuppi mine hasn’t failed as I unplug mine when stowed, still looking for a convenient alternative. I’m a cable routing expert by trade, and it’s easy to see that with that tiny bend radius, it’s bound to fail relatively quickly.

@@JekleFPV Okay see that’s also what I’ve been doing, when I’m done I put everything away so it doesn’t stay looped. I have also not really done that much shark byte flying in general but I’ve I’ve got a real build now & have the mobula7 HDzero on the way so it will be seeing more time. If you find a better cable setup let me know!

@@JohnCuppi if you unplug it, the vrx tilts up slightly that way, then I don’t see the problem given that we’re usually flying above our own heads anyway! Will do, you let us know if you find a good cable as well!

Сидеть дома и смотреть в них это да кайф. Летать в них невозможно!!!! Рябят, моргают, плывут, постоянно что-то ищут и переключаются. Половина режимов вовсе не работает!! Для гонки однозначно не подходят. Только для тихих самолетов и даунов. За эти деньги должно быть так. Включил, надел и полетел!

если летаешь а режиме mix - может - у меня на кобре с такая же херня. в режиме diversity все хорошо. приемники говно эти.
