So you are saying that i will soon be able to get a Cadex stand alone receiver and use it with my Eachine Goggles 2 that have a HDMI input and i will then have something similar to the HDMI Goggles? If so this is awesome news. Thanks Mr Bardwell !!!!
I was never slagging you off at all. How ever, off the record you didn't read the memo. but when a company gives you the full specs of their product, how is to blame? surely it must be the one who did not read it.?
It’s really exciting to see how this digital system is trying to be more accessible for more people. $600 is quite a hefty chunk of change that definitely left my wallet crying. I’m glad to see that people can enjoy digital at a much cheaper price point.
@@dangerous8333 because it’s an older system that they are not going to be making after some time. DJI is great but they never tried to include people who didn’t have the budget for their system.

Joshua, you have processed your spoken word microphone, near perfectly! You're one of the few that cares. And you've done it of so right. For decades I am made my living, recording and broadcasting, spoken word narratives. Along with producing, tens of thousands of, commercials. For an international, advertising agency. Where you have to make certain. No one misses or misinterprets a single word. And so, that requires some fairly extreme, tonal and dynamic range processing. To fool the listeners. Into thinking it sounds, normal. And just right. And that's the mark of a good audio engineer. Joshua you definitely get my seal of approval. With an excellent sounding voice track. RemyRAD
I haven’t made the jump to Digital HD “yet” so this video is for me. 8:15 Haha, I remember that little fella in a baby carrier (“baby carriers” have a generic name but I don’t rem) at the end of your videos which remains to this day the single cutest thing I’ve ever seen. 😊 Great video. The comparative analysis was super dooper.
Great video as always. That tip on how to remove the lens was awesome. Very out of focus with the lens and no glasses now crystal clear.made ALLthe difference
JOSHUA BARDWELL you have done an amazing job with these videos and have answered soo many questions and saved soo many people frustration especially me. I was just about to make my purchase before watching this video but then caught the end about you getting a commission, so I started my order process all over by clicking the link. Your time and detail to your videos are GREATLY appreciated.
The Scout HDs had foam inserts (that had to be removed) at the corner/edges to accommodate glasses. I wonder if these has them as well since they are somewhat similar shells.
Oh how I wish I could go flying with you one day. I don't have a drone yet but I fly on the sim alot. I'm looking to get a drone as soon as I can afford one. I want to build my first quad but thats probably not going to be the case. I still watch a ton of your build videos because you do such a good job explaining everything 👏 🙌 👌
Personally I like the box goggles from fatshark. They're small, light, and I got use to the 16:9 format. My hope is a more non-proprietary HD system comes. The hd side of the house has definitely segregated the community.
I flew roughly 20 packs through my newly built setup over the weekend using these goggles and the v2 unit, and talk about absolutely fantastic hardware. SO much less finicky than analog, at a great price.
One comment on the recommended combination of the Walksnail VRX and the Cobra X: that's exactly the combination I'll hopefully soon be using. And all in all it seems to be the perfect combination, I agree. However, there's one caveat: after reading about latency in some forums, I measured the HDMI input lag of my Cobra X. And unfortunately it's quite quite high (around 35 ms). I'm not particularly sensitive to lag (or, I guess, not a good enough pilot to notice), but for some people the sum of the latency of the Walksnail System and the HDMI lag might be a little too much... It seems that the lag is coming from the fact that the image has to be mirrored on the screen of the goggles due to their optical system. However, as the optical systems of the Fatshark and the Skyzone are basically the same, maybe the Recon Goggles have the same problem. Maybe Mr. Bardwell can send his goggles to Mr. Rosser for further investigations.
The Recon goggles don't mirror the screen, but I appreciate you letting me know about the latency of the Cobra X HDMI input, as that's quite significant.
@@JoshuaBardwell Yes, you're absolutely right. I made the mistake of repeating something I read on a forum without checking it for myself. Now I slightly disassembled my Cobra X and checked for myself and I can confirm that the image of the Cobra X is also not mirrored. With that in mind the input latency is even harder to explain. In addition, Gal Kremer made a video in which he showed that latency of the Cobra X is also quite high when using the analog receiver (> 30 ms - incl. video link and camera, so better than what I measured but still high). After all, this seems to be a problem with the display panel/controller. Maybe something Skyzone could fix in firmware but I don't have high hopes.
@@mihyouko i'm still using my old cobra x v2, so after reading this is it better to just buy the recon hd rather the vrx for my cobra's? or should i just buy the used dji v1? don't mention the new walksnail google, i'm broke 😂
@@iammostwanted777 So after using the VRX with the Cobra X V2 for a little while (I measured the delay in this configuration to be 70-80 ms) I gave up and ordered the HD Zero Goggles (for the cheaper pre-reaease price). And at least for me (self build Whoop with Meteor 75 Pro frame mostly flying around a playground as an obstacle) the difference is quite significant. There's other pilots that feel fine with this combination but at least for close proximity whooping I really feel the difference. Unfortunately, it seems that the additional delay is a problem with all box style goggles (because of the displays they have to use - no display manufacturer will custom config anything for so few displays the goggle manufacturers need). So I don't think the Recon HDs will be much better. Unfortunately, it seems that nobody tested latency on them. I guess it depend's on your flying style. For cruising, the Cobra X V2s with the WS VRX can be fine. But for everything quicker - at least for me - it's distracting. But if you want low latency, I guess any kind of Box Goggle will be problematic, but I'm not sure, as nobody tested the HD versions, as far as I know.
@@mihyouko yeah the problem is, there's only a few review for the recon hd, i don't even know the true latency is. So it's better to buy the used dji V1 with analog module rather than using my old cobra with vrx or using recon hd? i will just use it for like 6 month to 1 year and then bought the WS googles X, thats my plan before. Also, why i don't use hdzero. cuz there's no shop selling them in my country, and if ordered it directly the tax in my country would be 2x the price, i fly 5" and tinywhoop.
@@ramus9 Why do you prefer the Scouts to the Cobra X? After my Scouts started to act funny (they powered down randomly even with a fully charged battery) and my Fatshark Transformers just died before that, I decided I would switch to the Cobra X. And all in all I really prefer them to the Scout. They have better reception, I prefer the image quality and they have an HDMI in. The only downside is the considerable input lag (see my other comment), but it's possible that the Scouts are comparable there as well (I'm planning to channel my inner Rosser and measure this soon).
Nice thorough comparison. The HDZero box goggle solution from Fatshark was actually the Scout HDs. Still similar. They reused some tooling leftover from the original analog versions more than likely.
Subscribed…… I gotta say, I’m not New New to the FPV Game, But I am New…. And I very much appreciate and enjoy the descriptiveness and detail you put into topic’s or reviews. I have learned ALOT since tuning into your channel, And I’m looking fwd to learning more…… Props from Thx from SW Florida…. Ever spent anytime with the “Movr5tpr1”.?.??? I’d love to hear your input…
Been a couple years since I've flown. I have some HD2s... And all this other stuff is confusing lol. Too many options that aren't compatible with each other.
The HDZero/Sharkbyte version of this goggle was/is called the "Scout HD". Same thing I'm sure just different VRX. I just picked up the OLED Walksnails and I am not impressed compared to my DJI V2 goggles. Yes the range sucks but my complaint isnt the range but the key holes I feel like I'm looking through combined with chromatic aberration the cheap lenses create. I flew a few flights then switched back to my V2 goggles flying the same size class quad and the feel was completely different. Right about that time I got a notice from getfpv that the Scout HD's were back in stock so I pulled trigger on them and a HDzero mobula6. I will eventually try the OLED hdzero's but if the eye pieces are as small as this Walksnail I dunno what I'm gonna do. Wish I could run HDMI into my DJI V2's(I know you can RCA to HDMI convert but that's not nearly the same).
I love how they made a module, awesomr idea, i still have my skyzone 02x and i wouldnt get rid of them, good to have a spare pair of analogs i think with digital
How would the goggles stack up today against the Walksnail Goggles L and with the significant price cut to a 170$??? What would you recommend to get into Walksnail???
A lot of people talking about latency on their Google... Sure, if you fly in tight space and do some freestyling stuff, latency matter. But what about cruising fpv pilot like me? You don't really need super low latency imho...
… if you don’t have any gear yet. If you’re only new to digital but have a bunch of analog quads already, there’s a fair chance you have analog goggles that will accept HDMI in. If they do, take a look at the Walksnail module and/or the HDzero vrx4 instead, as they’re the most affordable way first step into digital FPV. In fact, the latter has been around for a while…
I mean… I don’t wanna be a d*ck about it, but I heard some great advice in here about combining the cobra x with a VRX that I don’t remember hearing in the reviews of the HDzero module. So unless I’m mistaken on that, it’s just a bit of shame, really…
I'm not sure what point you're trying to make with the Cobra X reference. Every single time I have talked about HDZero, I have said that it's a great value proposition if you already own analog goggles with HDMI input. I have always pointed out that the ability to pair HDZero with the analog goggles of your choice is one of the advantages of that system. The reason I specifically call out the Cobra X here is because the existing Walksnail goggles have zero support for analog or HDMI input, so the ability to solve that problem by going with a different box goggle is worth mentioning, and the Cobra X are the least expensive box goggle with sufficient resolution and HDMI input to support the system. You 100% can also use the Cobra X with HDZero, and if anybody asked, what's the cheapest goggle I can buy to use with HDZero, I would also suggest the Cobra X.
@@JoshuaBardwell I guess my point is that that piece of advice was missing from other reviews. And as a bit of an HDzero fanboy, that kinda bugs me a little. I guess I just wish (stuff like) that piece of advice would’ve popped up earlier in (HDzero) videos about digital systems before talks of the Walksnail module. That setup is cheaper then DJI v2 was for a long time. Yet you usually did the math comparing costs with different goggles, making it pretty much even on price. A setup for anyone coming into the hobby. Let alone for a lot of people that already had compatible goggles, but you only put that “unless” caveat in later. Now I’m not claiming anything shady is going one, I don’t think it’s even a purposeful thing or anything like that. You’ll have to excuse the forwardness, but all in all it does make me feel like your personal preference is shining through. I know I’m knitpicking, but that perception on our side might be why you sometimes feel like you’re walking on eggshells with HDzero fanboys 😉 Apart from that, great review, looking forward to more goggle reviews in the near future! 😉
Can you show me where I did the math comparing costs of different goggles and unfairly disadvantaged HDZero by using expensive analog goggles instead of cheaper ones? I have talked about these systems a lot so it's hard to know exactly what you're referring to. In general, I think I say that HDZero is "about on par" with DJI in terms of the cost of vTX and camera, and "cheaper if you already own a set of analog goggles, but about on par if you have to buy a new set of analog goggles." Consider: DJI goggles alone cost about $550 to $570 for a long time. $250 for Cobra X plus $240 for HDZero vRX plus another $50-$100-ish in antennas yeah -- that's "about the same". HDZero is even more expensive if you assume somebody is buying $500-$600 HDO2 or Orqa. But, bottom line, I'm not willing to engage with your vague sense that I have a bias and have been unfair to the system. Give me a specific video where I said a specific thing, and we can discuss it.
@@JoshuaBardwell The most specific thing I can think of is that when you do these calculation, you always start assuming that one has no goggles at all, (or at least none that would take a HDMI), do the calculation, point out how that stacks up, and only after 5-10 minutes in hindsight caveat it with "unless you already have...", just like in your previous comment. I'd argue that that paints a picture that DJI is on par or cheaper, 'unless' you're the exception from the assumptions made. The thing is every single pilot I've met and/or seen fly in person over the past few years has goggles that accept HDMI except for two. So I'd argue that the assumption of no (HDMI-compatible) gear is not entirely fair as most do already own a compatible set of goggles. It only took me 3 months to upgrade my goggles to one when I started. If you take that into account that would significantly changes the outcome of the calculation. Now, I realise that you can't do the calculation as a one-size-fits-all, but I do think it would've painted a fairer and more complete picture if the takeaway would've been along the lines of: "getting into digital FPV is about 300 bucks plus VTX unless you're pretty fresh in the hobby. In that case, DJI might be cheaper as a first step, plus DJI has a number of other advantages depending on what and how you wanna fly". Neither version would necessarily be unfair I think. We each have our preferences and that's fine, and I do get and appreciate the starting-from-scratch approach. But I'd argue the nuance in this version of the takeaway would do both systems a little bit more justice. Funnily enough I did see that nuance more in this particular video, so that's a plus! Keeping that perspective in mind, getting into digital FPV has been around 300 or less for a lot of people for quite a while now, and I perceived the title of this video to again also gloss over that perspective a little bit. So I guess that's what triggered me to comment in this case. I'll happily admit that it is indeed a vague sense that I'm trying to convey. But it is how I perceived it. Only trying to point out that your personal preference can come across in unintended and/or nuanced ways, and if it does I believe you'd rather be told about it than not because you do intend to be as fair as possible. Again: this is extreme nitpicking, I don't think you've treated anything or anyone unfairly. Love your content, and especially given the latest news from e-max, I can't wait for the upcoming goggle reviews 😉!
I got a Noob question here. But i see that you have Analog video and then the better version, Digital Video Transmission. Now when you have a digital setup it seems like it costs like $500-1k$ for quality fpv googles or dji googles, digital video transmitter, receiver, camera, and good quality cameras. So it seems that it depends on the latency and the Data speed.. Has anyone tried using a 5G/4G LTE Antenna and a small device for data in/out for the 5G Cellular connection? So then you would have like 500mbps+ of data speed in any bigger towns. I have gotten 600mbps download/ 500mbps upload with Verizon 5G and it was down one bar from Max, and it had latency of 3ms according to the internet speed tests i did. Because i use it for cloud gaming occasionally and latency is just as important as the speed. So why not use a fast 5G cellular connection for the video/audio/data transmission? You can have a sim for a ipad/tablet for $10-20/month with verizon and i know a lot of people spend a lot of money on FPV Drones. I was just thinking about it recently and i figured someone had to of tried this before. I mean you can do super clear HD FaceTime anywhere you have decent 4G basically. Im sure theres a reason why you cant use 5G cellular for FPV instead of like a analog/digital setup? I was just curious. Especially for long distance flying and FPV drones and things like that..
Having bought the DJI goggles, which, apart from 3.5mm in, don't have any way of inputting video, I will stay away from these. I want to switch to Walksnail, but I'm locked in with my DJI goggles. Will probably buy some used fatshark and the VRX instead of this Recon
Wish digital FPV came down more in price! Less barriers entry to new pilots who don’t want crappy VTX and have to deal with getting an FCC armature license.
I've had the fat shark dominator HDs but the left screen is going funky, I don't know if I want to get the walksnail goggles l ,or these are on sale for $169 at rotor riot. Or if I just want to splurge and get the goggles x. Any recommendations would be great
Once again Fatshark have missed an opportunity.... Namely a damned good low latency do it all box goggle with analogue in and hdmi in+out for digital vrx's (Walksnail built in)
To be honest, I don't feel like the skyzone cobra X should be recommended in any way. I got mine less than two months ago, probably less than 20 flights on them, screen won't turn on anymore. Looking online, this looks like a frequent issue, and skyzone support do not seem to answer at all. Being the "Most expensive box goggles", it makes it expensive for a 2 months lifespan.Sure, they got lot of good features for someone that is starting analog, considering they can potentially be used later for HD with the hdmi input, but yeah. Lot of people are having issues with them, skyzone isn't really taking care of it.. It leaves new pilots without goggles.
Brilliant video, great to see manufacturers giving us a lot of choice at a cost saving . How is the anti fog/ ventilation on the box goggles? . I under stand on the more expensive walksnail , is not good .
I bought the cobra X whilst waiting for hdzero goggles.... Not sure now about buying the Hdzero goggles as the cobra X with analogue and hdzero and soon walksnail is surprisingly good.....
Are they the version 2's? I've been thinking about buying them as an analog with an HD upgrade path for when i'm ready, but i heard bad things about the battery life on the version 1's. What battery do you use? I only fly whoops so i dont have a way to charge anything except 1s. I dont want to invest in a charger for bigger batteries just to power goggles, but an 18650 charger isn't a big deal. So i'm very interested in the battery life of the internal 18650 or one of those dual 18650 packs you can buy.
I confirm the 18650 battery last about 90 minutes (if using a good quality Panasonic 18650 battery) because i wear the cobra X when practicing on Velocidrone and DRL simulators.
Hmm nice, also I noticed new hdo2.1 is out with the same old dumb useless dvr. Sadly I’ve been trying to get fatshark customer service to fix my beloved scout analog goggles but there is no support provided. They are not even responding back to emails, Beware as FS customer support is completely screwed.
Damn! This goggle release makes analog's days even more numbered! Why would anyone buy analog goggles when they could buy these?! No reason I can logically see. BUT, probably the best option to these Recon FatSharks is the good ole, tried & proven DJI V2 goggles! At $429, they give us 810P, 120 FPS, adjustable 54 degree FOV, FULL Betaflight OSD in goggles, with up to 1200mw, and the ability to do outstanding analog FPV! Cheaply too. And, supposedly the soon to be released 03 Air Unit will allow gimbal stabilized 4K DVR recording, just like the DJI Avata drone. Plus, the image quality is top of the line, as is the durability & reliability of both the goggles and the Vista and Link. That $429 deal is just too good to pass up!!! But, the Recon's in this video would be my second affordable choice. No HDMI and no analog hurts them, though.😎🤘
Great info and Big Thumbs up, looks like fatshark (fatcat) is just trying to cash in on another side of the HD, and make a few extra bucks, hopefully they will use the extra bucks to fund some kind of customer service for the uk and other places, but i don't think so, another year or few, there will be another recon for sure ;O) lmao
But at $280 you can get the Standalone system with camera and transmitter for literally the same price with the special that's going on right now I understand that's not going to be a forever thing and since they're both on pre-order if I was going to purchase it I would buy the standalone cuz I already had the HD zero Standalone the original version 1 and I could just swap it out for me that's what I would go for since they're all on pre-order anyhow and I can just continue to use my goggles I use now but for a noob this might be a good option
Let me calculate this! 960 is 120 away from 1080 and 240 away from 720. In my opinion that's almost twice as far away as it is from 1080, but maybe that is because i am more a "tha glass is half full" type of guy. Who knows?
The fact that the cheaper goggles have a fan and the expensive ones dont puzzles me. Did they somehow science the fogging issue away on the expensive ones?
Hi. Are these the same size as the Cobra X? my glasses fit in those. Still can't decide, if I should only upgrade my Cobra X V2 or go for the Recon HD goggles and vtx kit separately. Thought? ;) thanks, P. Sidd
Oh boy these are what I've been waiting for. Definitely gonna to do some surgery and put some omnis on top. Although it is very tempting to get the CobraX as well...
The Cobra goggles have a periscope optical pathway though, and you can wear glasses with them. These FS box goggles don't, so the screen is too close for us long sighted people...Just saying.
If you take the foam off or cut it partially do think you would be able to wear your glasses? (I realize everybody has different size faces and glasses and you can’t say definitively) I wear glasses (I have astigmatism) and I have the attitude v6 goggles. I noticed I get more motion sickness with those goggles than I used to get when I wore box goggles. But I can’t use box goggles without my glasses, I get headaches and eye strain when I do.
You have a very cute kid Mr. Bardwell. Well done! Is he flying yet? Mine is 8 and he started flying at 7. I'm already missing when mine was like 4-6 years old. Those are the best years. And I have a 15 year old.🤦♂ Anyways...great review as always my friend.🍺🍺
bro, i'm lost. been flying simulator for 200 hours and want to start FPV. I need a sub 250g quad to freestyle, race and cruise maybe 1,5 km. possible? do i go digital or analog? any budget friendly suggestions for drone and goggles? i dont want to compromise quality too much though. love your videos thanks in advance
Bro. There are endless FPV videos on RUclips where they talk about different quads to buy and all the benefits. Do you really think Josh has the time to answer everyone's direct question like this? Everything you're asking is part of the process of getting into FPV, not just flying in a simulator. Time to start doing research on quads and parts.
@@dangerous8333 anyone with suggestions is welcome, i have been researching and looked most at rekon 4 fr and lr, flywoo explorer, chimera 4 and crocodile baby. i just dont know what goggles to match with for digital and analog.
I started with a Mambo Ethix with an ERS module, Skyzone 04x, a mobula 6, and a Darwin FPV baby ape. Mangled a couple mobula frames, and started to get good and learn about repairing and batteries and stuff. If you have the means, coming from a recent newbie, don’t buy a super nice quad at first. You *will* break it, and if it’s too nice, you’ll feel bad about it. And then you won’t want to go flying because you’re so worried about breaking your fancy quad again. Buy a basher. Power loop it into a wall, rip the frame in half, laugh about it, and rebuild it or get a new one. Only buy a nice quad when you’re really confident with real flying. The sim is really great, but it’s no substitute for all the weird crap that happens in meat space. Just my opinion. Glad to see another new pilot!
@@JoshuaBardwell this is what happens when you drink, watch botgrinder’s stream, and have your debit card number memorized. If my calculations are correct, plugging the walksnail VRX into the HDZero goggles will open a portal to the netherworld.
You mentioned the “Fatshark Recon”; box goggles but you never mentioned anything about the “Skyzone Cobra X” goggles which in my opinion are far better than the Recons any time, any day, any year.🤷🏻♂️👍
@@JoshuaBardwell I did see it till the end and I saw you put a card up for the review of the “Skyzone Cobra X” which I have seen several times about a year ago but I haven’t seen a recent video of the “Skyzone Cobra X” as far as being compatible with any of the new systems. I value your videos and have purchased many items based on your reviews. That’s why I was asking?🤷🏻♂️👍💯
@@peteroman4297 He talks about the Cobra X in this video and how you can put the new walksnail VRX on them to have a great analog and digital goggle in one.
I specifically recommend the Cobra X paired with the new Walksnail VRX as a better alternative for those who want analog as well as digital, except that the Cobra X is only 720p instead of 1080p. Look at 16:30 -- I specifically say the Cobra X might be the "hands down best option". ruclips.net/video/Zal3PEM3Pn0/видео.html
@@JoshuaBardwell my apologies, I looked at the video again and I must of missed the reference to the Cobra X box goggles. But I did acknowledge the mention of the Cobra X this time. Thank you for notifying me of the part that I missed. I appreciate it. 👍👍💯💯🙂🙂
He's referring to the older Fatshark Recon HDs that had a HDZero Receiver in them (the ones he mentions in the beginning of the video). Not the new goggles from HDZero.
It's possible that what you're seeing is the result of the 60 fps recording being overlaid on the 100 fps timeline. I don't know how to combine 100 fps low-latency footage and 60 fps regular-latency footage without experiencing this issue though.
I just realized that I never SAID that they have USB HDMI output just like the bigger goggles. They do.
So you are saying that i will soon be able to get a Cadex stand alone receiver and use it with my Eachine Goggles 2 that have a HDMI input and i will then have something similar to the HDMI Goggles? If so this is awesome news. Thanks Mr Bardwell !!!!

Personally I like the box goggles from fatshark. They're small, light, and I got use to the 16:9 format. My hope is a more non-proprietary HD system comes. The hd side of the house has definitely segregated the community.
Cobra X and a vrx for the win!
I flew roughly 20 packs through my newly built setup over the weekend using these goggles and the v2 unit, and talk about absolutely fantastic hardware. SO much less finicky than analog, at a great price.
One comment on the recommended combination of the Walksnail VRX and the Cobra X: that's exactly the combination I'll hopefully soon be using. And all in all it seems to be the perfect combination, I agree.
However, there's one caveat: after reading about latency in some forums, I measured the HDMI input lag of my Cobra X. And unfortunately it's quite quite high (around 35 ms). I'm not particularly sensitive to lag (or, I guess, not a good enough pilot to notice), but for some people the sum of the latency of the Walksnail System and the HDMI lag might be a little too much...
It seems that the lag is coming from the fact that the image has to be mirrored on the screen of the goggles due to their optical system. However, as the optical systems of the Fatshark and the Skyzone are basically the same, maybe the Recon Goggles have the same problem. Maybe Mr. Bardwell can send his goggles to Mr. Rosser for further investigations.
The Recon goggles don't mirror the screen, but I appreciate you letting me know about the latency of the Cobra X HDMI input, as that's quite significant.
@@JoshuaBardwell Yes, you're absolutely right. I made the mistake of repeating something I read on a forum without checking it for myself. Now I slightly disassembled my Cobra X and checked for myself and I can confirm that the image of the Cobra X is also not mirrored.
With that in mind the input latency is even harder to explain. In addition, Gal Kremer made a video in which he showed that latency of the Cobra X is also quite high when using the analog receiver (> 30 ms - incl. video link and camera, so better than what I measured but still high). After all, this seems to be a problem with the display panel/controller. Maybe something Skyzone could fix in firmware but I don't have high hopes.
@@mihyouko i'm still using my old cobra x v2, so after reading this is it better to just buy the recon hd rather the vrx for my cobra's? or should i just buy the used dji v1? don't mention the new walksnail google, i'm broke 😂
@@iammostwanted777 So after using the VRX with the Cobra X V2 for a little while (I measured the delay in this configuration to be 70-80 ms) I gave up and ordered the HD Zero Goggles (for the cheaper pre-reaease price). And at least for me (self build Whoop with Meteor 75 Pro frame mostly flying around a playground as an obstacle) the difference is quite significant. There's other pilots that feel fine with this combination but at least for close proximity whooping I really feel the difference.
Unfortunately, it seems that the additional delay is a problem with all box style goggles (because of the displays they have to use - no display manufacturer will custom config anything for so few displays the goggle manufacturers need). So I don't think the Recon HDs will be much better. Unfortunately, it seems that nobody tested latency on them.
I guess it depend's on your flying style. For cruising, the Cobra X V2s with the WS VRX can be fine. But for everything quicker - at least for me - it's distracting.
But if you want low latency, I guess any kind of Box Goggle will be problematic, but I'm not sure, as nobody tested the HD versions, as far as I know.
@@mihyouko yeah the problem is, there's only a few review for the recon hd, i don't even know the true latency is. So it's better to buy the used dji V1 with analog module rather than using my old cobra with vrx or using recon hd? i will just use it for like 6 month to 1 year and then bought the WS googles X, thats my plan before.
Also, why i don't use hdzero. cuz there's no shop selling them in my country, and if ordered it directly the tax in my country would be 2x the price, i fly 5" and tinywhoop.
Feels good to have the exact setup Mr Bardwell suggest at the end! Cobra X+ walksnail vrx!
Cobra Xs aren’t that good. Not even as good as the Scouts.
@@ramus9 i like them personally
@@ramus9 Why do you prefer the Scouts to the Cobra X? After my Scouts started to act funny (they powered down randomly even with a fully charged battery) and my Fatshark Transformers just died before that, I decided I would switch to the Cobra X. And all in all I really prefer them to the Scout.
They have better reception, I prefer the image quality and they have an HDMI in. The only downside is the considerable input lag (see my other comment), but it's possible that the Scouts are comparable there as well (I'm planning to channel my inner Rosser and measure this soon).
How do you like the cobra x walksnail vrx?
It would be really cool to fly a real quad. The simulator is awesome and I've gotten pretty good. I just hope real life is like the sim
Thanks so much for this video. I've been trying to decide who to choose for weeks now.
Fantastic review, Joshua! 😃
This option looks pretty good indeed!
Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
Nice thorough comparison. The HDZero box goggle solution from Fatshark was actually the Scout HDs. Still similar. They reused some tooling leftover from the original analog versions more than likely.

Ever spent anytime with the
“Movr5tpr1”.?.???
I’d love to hear your input…
Been a couple years since I've flown. I have some HD2s... And all this other stuff is confusing lol. Too many options that aren't compatible with each other.
The HDZero/Sharkbyte version of this goggle was/is called the "Scout HD". Same thing I'm sure just different VRX. I just picked up the OLED Walksnails and I am not impressed compared to my DJI V2 goggles. Yes the range sucks but my complaint isnt the range but the key holes I feel like I'm looking through combined with chromatic aberration the cheap lenses create. I flew a few flights then switched back to my V2 goggles flying the same size class quad and the feel was completely different. Right about that time I got a notice from getfpv that the Scout HD's were back in stock so I pulled trigger on them and a HDzero mobula6. I will eventually try the OLED hdzero's but if the eye pieces are as small as this Walksnail I dunno what I'm gonna do. Wish I could run HDMI into my DJI V2's(I know you can RCA to HDMI convert but that's not nearly the same).
7:05 "Oh yea, see? It's completely unfocused."
You need a pupil-camera for us to see that one mate, but I'll take your word for it :D
I love how they made a module, awesomr idea, i still have my skyzone 02x and i wouldnt get rid of them, good to have a spare pair of analogs i think with digital
This made me dizzy. No more circles 😬
Jb, please stop train sbang sbang, because makes u circle around and make us dizzy, hahahahaah
8:48 haha RUclips makes it 4k50 from your 100fps upload (watching on a 4k120hdr screen) - probably just use it as slow-mo as needed in post next time
Great idea! Upload at 60 fps at half the speed, then we play it at 2x.
Wait, so your house is the one that's on Lift-off?! Nice!!! And amazing video as always!
How would the goggles stack up today against the Walksnail Goggles L and with the significant price cut to a 170$??? What would you recommend to get into Walksnail???
A lot of people talking about latency on their Google... Sure, if you fly in tight space and do some freestyling stuff, latency matter. But what about cruising fpv pilot like me? You don't really need super low latency imho...
Very informational. Thanks joshua
… if you don’t have any gear yet. If you’re only new to digital but have a bunch of analog quads already, there’s a fair chance you have analog goggles that will accept HDMI in. If they do, take a look at the Walksnail module and/or the HDzero vrx4 instead, as they’re the most affordable way first step into digital FPV. In fact, the latter has been around for a while…
I mean… I don’t wanna be a d*ck about it, but I heard some great advice in here about combining the cobra x with a VRX that I don’t remember hearing in the reviews of the HDzero module. So unless I’m mistaken on that, it’s just a bit of shame, really…
I'm not sure what point you're trying to make with the Cobra X reference. Every single time I have talked about HDZero, I have said that it's a great value proposition if you already own analog goggles with HDMI input. I have always pointed out that the ability to pair HDZero with the analog goggles of your choice is one of the advantages of that system.
The reason I specifically call out the Cobra X here is because the existing Walksnail goggles have zero support for analog or HDMI input, so the ability to solve that problem by going with a different box goggle is worth mentioning, and the Cobra X are the least expensive box goggle with sufficient resolution and HDMI input to support the system. You 100% can also use the Cobra X with HDZero, and if anybody asked, what's the cheapest goggle I can buy to use with HDZero, I would also suggest the Cobra X.
@@JoshuaBardwell I guess my point is that that piece of advice was missing from other reviews. And as a bit of an HDzero fanboy, that kinda bugs me a little.
I guess I just wish (stuff like) that piece of advice would’ve popped up earlier in (HDzero) videos about digital systems before talks of the Walksnail module. That setup is cheaper then DJI v2 was for a long time. Yet you usually did the math comparing costs with different goggles, making it pretty much even on price. A setup for anyone coming into the hobby. Let alone for a lot of people that already had compatible goggles, but you only put that “unless” caveat in later. Now I’m not claiming anything shady is going one, I don’t think it’s even a purposeful thing or anything like that.
You’ll have to excuse the forwardness, but all in all it does make me feel like your personal preference is shining through.
I know I’m knitpicking, but that perception on our side might be why you sometimes feel like you’re walking on eggshells with HDzero fanboys 😉
Apart from that, great review, looking forward to more goggle reviews in the near future! 😉
Can you show me where I did the math comparing costs of different goggles and unfairly disadvantaged HDZero by using expensive analog goggles instead of cheaper ones? I have talked about these systems a lot so it's hard to know exactly what you're referring to.
In general, I think I say that HDZero is "about on par" with DJI in terms of the cost of vTX and camera, and "cheaper if you already own a set of analog goggles, but about on par if you have to buy a new set of analog goggles." Consider: DJI goggles alone cost about $550 to $570 for a long time. $250 for Cobra X plus $240 for HDZero vRX plus another $50-$100-ish in antennas yeah -- that's "about the same". HDZero is even more expensive if you assume somebody is buying $500-$600 HDO2 or Orqa.
But, bottom line, I'm not willing to engage with your vague sense that I have a bias and have been unfair to the system. Give me a specific video where I said a specific thing, and we can discuss it.
@@JoshuaBardwell The most specific thing I can think of is that when you do these calculation, you always start assuming that one has no goggles at all, (or at least none that would take a HDMI), do the calculation, point out how that stacks up, and only after 5-10 minutes in hindsight caveat it with "unless you already have...", just like in your previous comment.
I'd argue that that paints a picture that DJI is on par or cheaper, 'unless' you're the exception from the assumptions made.
The thing is every single pilot I've met and/or seen fly in person over the past few years has goggles that accept HDMI except for two.
So I'd argue that the assumption of no (HDMI-compatible) gear is not entirely fair as most do already own a compatible set of goggles. It only took me 3 months to upgrade my goggles to one when I started. If you take that into account that would significantly changes the outcome of the calculation.
Now, I realise that you can't do the calculation as a one-size-fits-all, but I do think it would've painted a fairer and more complete picture if the takeaway would've been along the lines of: "getting into digital FPV is about 300 bucks plus VTX unless you're pretty fresh in the hobby. In that case, DJI might be cheaper as a first step, plus DJI has a number of other advantages depending on what and how you wanna fly".
Neither version would necessarily be unfair I think. We each have our preferences and that's fine, and I do get and appreciate the starting-from-scratch approach. But I'd argue the nuance in this version of the takeaway would do both systems a little bit more justice. Funnily enough I did see that nuance more in this particular video, so that's a plus!
Keeping that perspective in mind, getting into digital FPV has been around 300 or less for a lot of people for quite a while now, and I perceived the title of this video to again also gloss over that perspective a little bit. So I guess that's what triggered me to comment in this case.
I'll happily admit that it is indeed a vague sense that I'm trying to convey. But it is how I perceived it.
Only trying to point out that your personal preference can come across in unintended and/or nuanced ways, and if it does I believe you'd rather be told about it than not because you do intend to be as fair as possible.
Again: this is extreme nitpicking, I don't think you've treated anything or anyone unfairly. Love your content, and especially given the latest news from e-max, I can't wait for the upcoming goggle reviews 😉!
This is a great option I might pick a setup strictly for tiny whoops!!
I got a Noob question here. But i see that you have Analog video and then the better version, Digital Video Transmission.
Now when you have a digital setup it seems like it costs like $500-1k$ for quality fpv googles or dji googles, digital video transmitter, receiver, camera, and good quality cameras. So it seems that it depends on the latency and the Data speed..
Has anyone tried using a 5G/4G LTE Antenna and a small device for data in/out for the 5G Cellular connection? So then you would have like 500mbps+ of data speed in any bigger towns. I have gotten 600mbps download/ 500mbps upload with Verizon 5G and it was down one bar from Max, and it had latency of 3ms according to the internet speed tests i did.
Because i use it for cloud gaming occasionally and latency is just as important as the speed.
So why not use a fast 5G cellular connection for the video/audio/data transmission? You can have a sim for a ipad/tablet for $10-20/month with verizon and i know a lot of people spend a lot of money on FPV Drones.
I was just thinking about it recently and i figured someone had to of tried this before. I mean you can do super clear HD FaceTime anywhere you have decent 4G basically. Im sure theres a reason why you cant use 5G cellular for FPV instead of like a analog/digital setup? I was just curious. Especially for long distance flying and FPV drones and things like that..
Anyone?
Thanks Bro,staying with the Dji Goggles.
i watch this same video before and now is when i notice your other pilot hahahahahaahah 8:14
It would be tough to go back to box goggles but that price is awesome compared $600. Who makes the cheapest goggles with a HDMI input?
IPD is a main selling point of those I guess. Anyone with IPD >70mm is bound to box googles sadly
i’m so happy now, a year late but still happy
Having bought the DJI goggles, which, apart from 3.5mm in, don't have any way of inputting video, I will stay away from these. I want to switch to Walksnail, but I'm locked in with my DJI goggles. Will probably buy some used fatshark and the VRX instead of this Recon
Wish digital FPV came down more in price! Less barriers entry to new pilots who don’t want crappy VTX and have to deal with getting an FCC armature license.
Do you Know the latency of this Goggles?
I 'reckon' they are supposed to be pronounced RE-CON. Love ya, JB, thanks for all the incredible info.
Well, sorry to say it looks like YT doesn't support framerates over 60 fps. F in the chat for me.
I've had the fat shark dominator HDs but the left screen is going funky, I don't know if I want to get the walksnail goggles l ,or these are on sale for $169 at rotor riot. Or if I just want to splurge and get the goggles x. Any recommendations would be great
Why are those goggles so much more expensive than vr- headsets like the quest 2?
Small market means no economy of scale. Also, Facebook sells the Quest 2 at a massive loss.
@@JoshuaBardwell it might be that they sell at a loss. Economy of scale is still a question for me. Aren't there more fpv googles sold than Quest2s?
Once again Fatshark have missed an opportunity....
Namely a damned good low latency do it all box goggle with analogue in and hdmi in+out for digital vrx's (Walksnail built in)
I bought one hd recon from getfpv . It never occured to me about the analog
@@gregorydahl How did it end up for you? Any cons? How's the latency compared to analog?
To be honest, I don't feel like the skyzone cobra X should be recommended in any way. I got mine less than two months ago, probably less than 20 flights on them, screen won't turn on anymore. Looking online, this looks like a frequent issue, and skyzone support do not seem to answer at all. Being the "Most expensive box goggles", it makes it expensive for a 2 months lifespan.Sure, they got lot of good features for someone that is starting analog, considering they can potentially be used later for HD with the hdmi input, but yeah. Lot of people are having issues with them, skyzone isn't really taking care of it.. It leaves new pilots without goggles.
I have spent thousands of dollars over the years on high end goggles and always found cheaper box goggles just work best for me.
Same for me, box goggles offers a way better visual comfort.
Brilliant video, great to see manufacturers giving us a lot of choice at a cost saving . How is the anti fog/ ventilation on the box goggles? . I under stand on the more expensive walksnail , is not good .
Hard to judge with it being winter, they don't fog up.
I bought the cobra X whilst waiting for hdzero goggles....
Not sure now about buying the Hdzero goggles as the cobra X with analogue and hdzero and soon walksnail is surprisingly good.....
Are they the version 2's? I've been thinking about buying them as an analog with an HD upgrade path for when i'm ready, but i heard bad things about the battery life on the version 1's. What battery do you use?
I only fly whoops so i dont have a way to charge anything except 1s. I dont want to invest in a charger for bigger batteries just to power goggles, but an 18650 charger isn't a big deal. So i'm very interested in the battery life of the internal 18650 or one of those dual 18650 packs you can buy.
@@rustumlaattoe yes V2, internal 1s 18650 last over an hour
Great for micros.
@@gmivisualsjason3729 Fantastic. Thank you for the quick reply. These just moved to the top of my purchase list 😁
I confirm the 18650 battery last about 90 minutes (if using a good quality Panasonic 18650 battery) because i wear the cobra X when practicing on Velocidrone and DRL simulators.
Hmm nice, also I noticed new hdo2.1 is out with the same old dumb useless dvr. Sadly I’ve been trying to get fatshark customer service to fix my beloved scout analog goggles but there is no support provided. They are not even responding back to emails, Beware as FS customer support is completely screwed.
You are FPV Man thank you brother.
I was seeing frame stutter in the recon when it was doing yaw twist
Damn! This goggle release makes analog's days even more numbered! Why would anyone buy analog goggles when they could buy these?! No reason I can logically see.
BUT, probably the best option to these Recon FatSharks is the good ole, tried & proven DJI V2 goggles! At $429, they give us 810P, 120 FPS, adjustable 54 degree FOV, FULL Betaflight OSD in goggles, with up to 1200mw, and the ability to do outstanding analog FPV! Cheaply too. And, supposedly the soon to be released 03 Air Unit will allow gimbal stabilized 4K DVR recording, just like the DJI Avata drone. Plus, the image quality is top of the line, as is the durability & reliability of both the goggles and the Vista and Link. That $429 deal is just too good to pass up!!!
But, the Recon's in this video would be my second affordable choice. No HDMI and no analog hurts them, though.😎🤘
Only works with 1 proprietary vtx my analog goggles work with any analog vtx no binding etc plus any camera
Great info and Big Thumbs up, looks like fatshark (fatcat) is just trying to cash in on another side of the HD, and make a few extra bucks, hopefully they will use the extra bucks to fund some kind of customer service for the uk and other places, but i don't think so, another year or few, there will be another recon for sure ;O) lmao
But at $280 you can get the Standalone system with camera and transmitter for literally the same price with the special that's going on right now I understand that's not going to be a forever thing and since they're both on pre-order if I was going to purchase it I would buy the standalone cuz I already had the HD zero Standalone the original version 1 and I could just swap it out for me that's what I would go for since they're all on pre-order anyhow and I can just continue to use my goggles I use now but for a noob this might be a good option
About glasses not fitting goggles. Glasses can be bought cheap, buy a small pair that will fit your goggles.
Wow that's impressive
So when are you handing them to Wezley for a range test?
Are the Recons still the best/cheapest way to get into digital fpv in 2024.?
Me doing everything analog and eating popcorn while fat shark and walksnail keep fighting it out and polishing their products
I wonder if Two of the patches are facing rearward or to the sides. Has anyone torn it down yet?
Let me calculate this! 960 is 120 away from 1080 and 240 away from 720. In my opinion that's almost twice as far away as it is from 1080, but maybe that is because i am more a "tha glass is half full" type of guy. Who knows?
You should use the Pixel Count and not the width it's about half way between them.
@@jjjannes Yeah, you're propably right. I've just realized it
The fact that the cheaper goggles have a fan and the expensive ones dont puzzles me. Did they somehow science the fogging issue away on the expensive ones?
Not sure I understand. The dominators definitely have a fan.
@@JoshuaBardwell i did not know that, from images they dont look to have one, is it tugged away inside?
Joshua, I also wear glasses, but a quick fix for me for tight fit goggles is that I just pop in my contact lenses then I’m good to go!
Is the recon HD compatible with the meteor 75 pro 1s
Would these goggles support the 1.3ghz 2ch transmitter?
With advances in VR Google’s, any chance that that could be a possible market for a receiver based product, I.e. any googles with an HDMI input?
with what system are you controlling the drone here, pls?
Hi. Are these the same size as the Cobra X? my glasses fit in those. Still can't decide, if I should only upgrade my Cobra X V2 or go for the Recon HD goggles and vtx kit separately. Thought? ;) thanks, P. Sidd
Did anyone else have to look away because you got dizzy AF? lmao WHEW got up to fast and walked into my wall :)
Oh boy these are what I've been waiting for. Definitely gonna to do some surgery and put some omnis on top. Although it is very tempting to get the CobraX as well...
Cobra x are way better I think that's what I been using for a long time
What about the dji goggles 2 lite
The Cobra goggles have a periscope optical pathway though, and you can wear glasses with them. These FS box goggles don't, so the screen is too close for us long sighted people...Just saying.
you menchoned the cobra x goggles. i just bought them as my first pair, but they need more padding. any ideas on thicker padding?
Knoxville , Tennesse
If you take the foam off or cut it partially do think you would be able to wear your glasses? (I realize everybody has different size faces and glasses and you can’t say definitively)
I wear glasses (I have astigmatism) and I have the attitude v6 goggles. I noticed I get more motion sickness with those goggles than I used to get when I wore box goggles. But I can’t use box goggles without my glasses, I get headaches and eye strain when I do.
50fps? Am I trippin' or aren't your videos a bit smoother & less flip-booky?
I exported in 100fps like the walksnail DVR but youtube can't handle it.
You have a very cute kid Mr. Bardwell. Well done! Is he flying yet? Mine is 8 and he started flying at 7. I'm already missing when mine was like 4-6 years old. Those are the best years. And I have a 15 year old.🤦♂ Anyways...great review as always my friend.🍺🍺
I've been gone from the hobby a while I guess because I e ne we heard of walksnail.
Hi joshua..i'm new in fpv..may i ask u a question..can i use this goggle to fly with analog drones?
Can I use the stock Dji antennas on the dominators for now?
Made me dizzy then JB 😂
bro, i'm lost. been flying simulator for 200 hours and want to start FPV.
I need a sub 250g quad to freestyle, race and cruise maybe 1,5 km. possible?
do i go digital or analog? any budget friendly suggestions for drone and goggles?
i dont want to compromise quality too much though.
love your videos thanks in advance
Bro.
There are endless FPV videos on RUclips where they talk about different quads to buy and all the benefits. Do you really think Josh has the time to answer everyone's direct question like this?
Everything you're asking is part of the process of getting into FPV, not just flying in a simulator.
Time to start doing research on quads and parts.
@@dangerous8333 anyone with suggestions is welcome, i have been researching and looked most at rekon 4 fr and lr, flywoo explorer, chimera 4 and crocodile baby.
i just dont know what goggles to match with for digital and analog.
Sub250g for 1.5 km I suggest the Flywoo Explorer 4". If you also want freestyle and racing, GEPRC Smart35.
@@JoshuaBardwell You are a legend, thanks for the reply and amazing educational videos
I started with a Mambo Ethix with an ERS module, Skyzone 04x, a mobula 6, and a Darwin FPV baby ape. Mangled a couple mobula frames, and started to get good and learn about repairing and batteries and stuff.
If you have the means, coming from a recent newbie, don’t buy a super nice quad at first. You *will* break it, and if it’s too nice, you’ll feel bad about it. And then you won’t want to go flying because you’re so worried about breaking your fancy quad again.
Buy a basher. Power loop it into a wall, rip the frame in half, laugh about it, and rebuild it or get a new one. Only buy a nice quad when you’re really confident with real flying. The sim is really great, but it’s no substitute for all the weird crap that happens in meat space.
Just my opinion. Glad to see another new pilot!
Patience is keyyyy!
Vely good grasses
What is best build to add the walksnail to when the external module with 1s vtx arrives.
Can i buy the Module für the dji goggles?
This is a bit of an oof after I preordered both the walksnail VRX and the HDZero goggles in the last month.
That's gonna be a hell of a combo.
@@JoshuaBardwell this is what happens when you drink, watch botgrinder’s stream, and have your debit card number memorized.
If my calculations are correct, plugging the walksnail VRX into the HDZero goggles will open a portal to the netherworld.
You mentioned the “Fatshark Recon”; box goggles but you never mentioned anything about the “Skyzone Cobra X” goggles which in my opinion are far better than the Recons any time, any day, any year.🤷🏻♂️👍
I can tell you didn't watch the video all the way to the end.
@@JoshuaBardwell I did see it till the end and I saw you put a card up for the review of the “Skyzone Cobra X” which I have seen several times about a year ago but I haven’t seen a recent video of the “Skyzone Cobra X” as far as being compatible with any of the new systems. I value your videos and have purchased many items based on your reviews. That’s why I was asking?🤷🏻♂️👍💯
@@peteroman4297 He talks about the Cobra X in this video and how you can put the new walksnail VRX on them to have a great analog and digital goggle in one.
I specifically recommend the Cobra X paired with the new Walksnail VRX as a better alternative for those who want analog as well as digital, except that the Cobra X is only 720p instead of 1080p.

There are product links in the description below the video.
Eachine ev900 have 1080p screen and 120fps with Hdmi input🤔

Will the 1200 hack work on rechon hd?
Why does it seem like the Recon goggles have about 10ms more latency than the Dominator?
Because 60hz vs 100hz mode.
Joshua, you got me all confused, You keep calling the Fatshark Dom goggles the HDzero goggles.....
4:25 Pretty sure they are not HDZero goggles. Unless you are a time traveller ?
He's referring to the older Fatshark Recon HDs that had a HDZero Receiver in them (the ones he mentions in the beginning of the video). Not the new goggles from HDZero.
@@loban4243 I know ;-)
Wow the jitter / studder on Recon is almost unwatchable. is it the same in the goggle or artifact of editing?
It's possible that what you're seeing is the result of the 60 fps recording being overlaid on the 100 fps timeline. I don't know how to combine 100 fps low-latency footage and 60 fps regular-latency footage without experiencing this issue though.
I'm so confused on the digital video topic. Does anyone have a family tree chart on who is who and what's compatible with what? 🤥
