    From what I see here, some new Walksnail Avatar HD googles with analog FPV module support (any FatShark compatible module like TBS Fusion or RapidFire) would be a bomb. Because would allow to use single googles for both digital Walksnail system and any analog FPV VTX existing at today. Much cheaper than requiring two (or three) googles too for FPV folk who already have something analog.

    Bought a skyzone 04x last year as my first fpv googles in the hopes that in the future a more affordable or flexible digital system would appear and I could still use the skyzones with that (didn't want to shell out the absurd price for DJI and the closed ecosystem they have, and also the way they break compatibility with older products). Really happy to see that walksnail would be a good way to test digital.

    A good way to test digital? How is 46ms latency a good way to test digital FPV? You really think you'll like flying with 46ms BEST CASE SCENARIO latency? Like JB said, that's the least you'll ever feel and most of the time, when actually flying FPV, you'll be getting 10 - 15ms more latency...so, more like 56 - 61ms latency in actual use. Not flyable really unless you just fly wings. Also, the 04X's cost $529.99 and the OLD price on the DJI V2 goggles was $569.99 with 4 antennas and a battery. So, how did you feel the V2's goggles were an "absurd price?" At least you would have gotten BY FAR the best image quality, range with clarity, and penetration digital FPV has ever achieved...and for only $40 more than what your 04X's cost. But, would it have been more when I don't think the Skyzone goggles come with antennas or a battery. Plus, the new price on the V2 goggles is only $429 USD! Just so ya know, that "breaking of compatibility with older products" is old news! DJI now supports forward AND backward compatibility with their new 03 digital system and the Vista/Link VTX's from the past. Both the V2 goggles and the Goggles 2 work with both of these VTX's. Full compatibility and then some added little features we weren't expecting but DJI gave users anyway.

In this regard HDO2 and O4X would be the same but HD0 would win for biggest FOV @ 16:9... no? however, the real question there is how much difference do those 4 degrees really make?

It was originally put in the menu to control the aspect ratio of the camera, but it's been a "dead option" since Walksnail has never made a camera that supports 4:3. I have tested it in the past, and I tested it with the vRX, and in all cases, it seems to have no effect.

Wheras for instance when i switched from r9 to elrs it was like someone dripped some sort of magic gimbal butter into my radio and i could feel it as soon as i started deflecting the sticks after takeoff. I was nervous after watching your initial review as i was still waiting on my preorder, but i have been kinda blown away by how nice it is to fly. Ive started doing some fairly technical proxy stuff the last time i went out freestyling (only flown the system like maybe 5 or 6 times so far still) and i havent once felt like latency got in the way of me being able to hit a gap etc. All the clips in my most recent upload besides the stuff at the giant smokestack, are flown with the VRX module if anyone cares to take a gander.

    I hope people consider just getting the Walksnail/Dominator goggles if they haven't purchased a WS VRX yet. The VRX is a cheaper alternative to getting Walksnail if you already have goggles, but if you use the system a lot, it's worth it just to get the goggles so you don't have to deal with all the cables, bulk, weight, batteries, and accessories which can easily cost over $100 when you finally figure out your cable/battery/mounting setup and storage/carrying case setups. Living with the VRX vs living with Walksnail goggles is big quality of life difference depending on what you primarily fly.

    Hey! Heard you mention that the HDO2 HDMI in should have less than 2ms latency but when I plug in my pc to play my simulator on them the latency makes them almost unusable. Will this be the same as using this VRX? I want to go digital but the HDMI in on my goggles seems basically useless with how slow it is. Is this just my PC? TIA

    I have both the Coba X and the X2. Only power supply board and DVR of 30 fps vs 60 fps are different. I'm quite sure latency is the same. The Cobra's have 7 image modes and the brightness, contrast, saturation, hue and sharpness can be adjusted. I do not recognise the dimm picture of JB's Cobra X2. Love the vibrant picture of my screens, many hours on them. For sure they cannot deliver the same picture as the Oled screens, but it's not as bad as JB's picture 😊

I really wonder if the extra latency is coming from the goggle or the vrx… I know the Hdzero team has been working on some bugs with hdmi inputs recently. Now I really want to hook my walksnail vrx to my gaming monitor to see if the latency is different at 60 vs 100fps. 🤔

    I must be accustomed to high latency, then, since flying with FatShark Scouts for the past 3 years.

Perhaps the latency of the Scouts is nearly equal to the combined latency of WalkSnail + CobraX (?)

I'm keeping that combo as a backup now. The CobraX aren't as comfortable and I have to wear glasses with them, so not all great.

    I will never understand how the entire FPV community could care less if a lens is 17mm tall or 22mm tall or 17.3mm wide or 32mm wide. I see the sides of Walksnail goggles really clearly as I peek through the tiny windows to a screen on other side. The same is true on Skyzone 04X vs my DJI V2s but so far the Walksnails are the smallest I have run into. Reports from HDZero users is the lens is 17mm x 22mm so they sound like the smallest yet in vertical view but I cannot confirm and likely won't be able to confirm for awhile. Current HDZ status: customs for a week and counting.

Like JB said, that's the least you'll ever feel and most of the time, when actually flying FPV, you'll be getting 10 - 15ms more latency...so, more like 85 - 91ms latency in actual use. Not flyable for FPV really, unless you just fly wings.

There is a setting deep in the menues where you disable certain option and after that there is less latency using them as analog goggles. I definatelly felt that. Latency was still big (for analog), but it was better. And I was flying them recently since he bought Walksnail vrx and there was less latency for sure compared with using them as analog with that option disabled. I would say little more than using high quality with DJI. I would definatelly pick that over analog. And again, that gigantic 1080p lcd screen in there is the best looking lcd screen I have ever flown. And I did flew a lot of various fpv goggles.
