    Hey Joshua Bardwell, I finally broke down and bought the DJI goggles with the 2 DJI cameras and 2 air units. I've installed them on mine and my son's quads. Both are Armittan Chameleons. My issue is the back stand off as you know has only the one antenna hole and it's only for a coaxial style connecter to fit in. So at first I had supported the antennas with tie wraps, hoping to protect the mmcx connectors. But my son and I have both broken a connector off an antenna. I've since bought the 3" extension that goes from mmcx to rp-sma and bought the DJI rp-sma antennas. And have not secured them in the rear up right and drilled a small hole in the top plate and secured the other there. Man this quad is packed now.... And figured all is good now.... Till yesterday in a crash and only from impact I broke off another mmcx connector in the hole on the air unit. So my question is are you guys having an issue with these mmcx connectors breaking or the connection hole wearing out to the point it's not staying connected? Seems like DJI, being the Rock solid manufacturer that they are, got everything right with their HD system except the mmcx connection. Wish they would have used some kind of protection for it or done something like TBS did by mounting that security plate over the connection to ensure it doesn't get ripped off. I mean the research has been done, that we drone pilots tear these mmcx and ufl connectors up all the time. Hence why TBS did what they did. Any suggestions?
    Oh and as much as we've all screamed for an on/off switch on our goggles DJI really missed that as well.

    Can you install the antennas into the 3D print and connect to the air unit, then install everything as a unit instead of trying to make the connection after the 3D print is mounted?

    As you didn’t do it, Is it still a good idea to use capacitors for a DJI build? The DJI air unit doesn't seem to show any noise like analog systems.

    Totally off topic but i wonder if youve ever mentioned, say getting stuck in a tree after most of your pack is used up, most of us want to try to turtle mode and full throttle right away. But i think if you wait a couple min for the battery to rebalance, or cool down, it will give you a better chance on getting out. Speaking from experience. Happy flying!

    Hey josh I’m hoping to build this quad soon and I’m wondering how you get the 3D printed parts to hold the camera and the antennas? Do they come with the frame or the fpv system? Or do I have to buy them separately? Thanks in advance!

    Hey Joshua, would you recommend the DJI FPV system over analog video with a Fatshark HDO and Rapidfire?

    • @FAQUERETERMAX
      @FAQUERETERMAX 5 лет назад

      I want to know too. It's certainly heavier and bigger, and it doesn't fit all builds. Also, top racers say it introduces a bit of latency even if it's flyable and HD boosts their confidence having a clearer image. Also, it's much more expensive if you destroy your equipment inside the quad. He did many reviews but they're all very objective and professional, so I still want to know his real personal opinion on the matter lol

    you need to grind the antenna holders down so most of the antenna is sticking out the TPE shifts and blocks the radio waves see painless360 for info

      Put everything in a backpack, as you are flying you have the backpack between your legs (doesn't matter if you are standing or sitting, you can figure it out). If you feel like someone is messing with your stuff or you have a gun to your head or whatever, full throttle the drone in to the guy. Simple, when he sees a 50kmh+ quad flying towards him he will run, then you chase him. You save yourself and have a lot of fun. Also remember to post the video on RUclips!
