Steve, I want to thank you for taking the time to be captain drone.. your videos have encouraged me to embark one some great drones. I've been flying quads for 10 years. My first big purchase was a mavic air 2 and then a evo 2 pro 6k. Keep up the good work and watching you has been a pleasure. Oh Merry Christmas brother..
Great work cap.i teach a bunch if kids fpv and always wanted to give them HD but to expensive.we were donated load of box goggles what they use aswell so they would be used to them.great work.
Fun video. I’m waiting to launch my DJI mini 3 pro which I’m getting for Christmas. I haven’t flown a drone in 8 years. Keep the videos coming Captain!😃
hi captain. can I use my cheap $10 solder iron to get by . or should i upgrade a bit? can you recommend a good solder to use ? and where to buy and what type. just starting out . total rookie . thanks
I can’t wait to see Emax make some Hd whoops now! I have the tinyhawk3 and tinyhawk race! They are neat drones but I can’t see much compared to my dji whoop obviously! So be awesome to see some whoops to go with the goggles! Thanks for showing us! Happy holidays!
Great video,as usual⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I'm still in the "infant" stage of drone operation,so FPV will have to wait.Besides getting them in the mail,how will we know if we are getting Captain Drone decals?
Thanks! The RC FPV Hobby is so very full of many different technologies so it certainly does take awhile to wrap your brain around what works with what and how.
great review! I have been out of the hobby for almost 10 years, so I'm used to 480p analog stuff... to run this, and take advantage of it, what vtx and camera equipment would i need on my quad?
Hey Steve, you are my go-to guy for new drone reviews. Any chance you can do a review of the new iFlight Defender 25 4S HD anytime soon? It looks like a very interesting one to me.
Many thanks for sharing Captain and another option to consider; it also looks like the Mini 3 Pro is your new "best friend" !!!!!; if we dont see another review between now and Xmas, thank you for going above and beyond the call of review duties; looking forward to 2023 and whats in store; Merry Xmas......................
Are you just looking to capture aerial video? Or would you like to get into the FPV hobby with the goggles and transmitters/receivers, lipo batteries and all that? I think the ideal setup for someone getting into FPV would be a Mobula 7 analog whoop, TX16S transmitter, and basic analog Fat Shark box goggles. Sorry, I don't know much about holystone products.
2:17... I fixed that problem by ordering a pair of my glasses with a much smaller Frame just to fit my FPV Box Goggles Steve... BTW.. How many NITS is the screen brightness ?
NITS? It is not listed in the specs. To my eyes it is viewable but it is not super bright outdoors, but still, my eyes seem to have no issue making out items.
I think it's a great idea to get both pieces, and put it together like a smart controller? I'm impressed with the company HD-ZERO. That 5 inch version is awesome. Thanks for sharing Steve. 👍👍👍
Great review. I don't remember if you answered this in the video, but do you happen to know if the display will attach to the previous box for the analog Transporter 2 goggles? If so, do you know if there will be an option just to purchase the HDZero display standalone? That would be great to eliminate plastic waste for people that already have the analog version.
Hey captain drone, I want to get into the fpv hobby and I don’t really know the best budget fpv drone 100% rtf. Also I would like to be able to do crazy stuff with it once I advance. If you could let me know what drone would be the best! Thanks!
If you wish to learn what you need to know about the FPV hobby, just watch my video series on RUclips called CAPTAIN DRONE FPV FOR BEGINNERS. Do a search for it.
Man right when I’m in the middle of thinking is it worth it for my first fav quad to be digital because this just makes it more affordable. Do you think they would make a tinyhawk rtf kit with this soon? Or is that even possible currently
So I have a few drones that I fly with, right now I'm using the Eachine EV300O goggles flying the GEPRC Mark 5. So essentially these goggles should connect right to the Mark 5 since this is analog still right ? I just want to make sure before I go ahead and pre order these
Got any stickers left Captain if so would love to have one TJ 502 north main Ave maiden NC 28650 if not all good keep making great videos very appreciated 👍
Great Video. I wish you a Merry Christmas and a few relaxing days with your loved ones. Have a good time, enjoy the time and have fun. It was often such a wonderfully exciting, moving, incredibly happy, loud, beloved and dazzling year, but in some moments it was also quiet, shocking, sad and difficult. I wish all of us a happy, healthy and satisfied new year with many wonderful moments.
i think my fatshark scouts that i got specifically because they fit over my glasses would disagree with you, and they are super small compared to the standard transporter2 goggs i had before, as box goggles the form factor and weight is very comparible to the little shoelace goggles with the tiny screens, i love the huge FOV from the scouts, and they fit my glasses perfectly, i can even wiggle them around with the goggles on their is that much space
As I too am a glasses wearer I also chose to buy the scouthds. They are a really nice goggle and the mirror design is much better at reducing the size of them. The only issue I have with them is the LCD screen brightness. It's actually quite dark compared to my cobra X image (which can also be adjusted) The trade off however is the additional weight of the vrx and latency. But that said it's a great goggle.... Maybe skyzone will make their own version 1080p screens
So, for a while now, I've been searching for a drone which is a go between of a race drone like the one in the video and has a long battery life. I've recently seen a video of a Babyhawk 2 with an 18650 Lithium Ion pack with over half an hour flight time. Is there a setup like this that wont break the bank, is both fun to fly with, has a long flight time and which also has some kind of stabilisation features on windy days (assuming you dont fly in a storm) that if you take of to 50m high without steering that it will indeed go 50m above the spot where you took of (or at least almost at that spot)? Also, besides a GoPro/Insta360, do you know a camera that can be mounted underneath the drone so you don't have propellors on your video?
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 sorry for not mentioning but as I live in Europe it has to be under 250g/0.55lbs. That's why I'd hoped for a more Emax like answer. As for how affordable and light they can build there drones.
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 Perfect thank you! Having the option to take the display off the box and mount it to RC for flying both FPV and LOS on same battery is great!
I asking here cause this ur latest video also u in Canada so maybe can answer or if anyone else here can chime in go ahead. I have a dji fpv have you had any experience flying drones in below zero weather -5 plus probably. I just curious cause it been cold here and kinda wonder for future if it effects things. Thank you.
I fly drones in below -20 celsius weather which is -4 and below fahrenheit. All you have to do is keep the batteries in your pocket, nice and warm, before any flight.
I ordered this bundle today i got the 5 inch 2400kv 4s express LRS BNF With E8 transmitter protocol (expressLRS ELRS 2.4GHz WILL ALL YHIS WORK FINE NEED YOU’RE HELP PLEASE
If these are the same size as the regular Transporter 2, don't buy unless you have a child-size head, they are tiny. Bought a tinyhawk 3 kit and the foam on the sides presses against my eye sockets.
I reached out to HD Zero and they provided the firmware for the goggles (I flashed wrong firmware and they wouldn't boot) So today I flashed the firmware I got from HD Zero and goggles are working Thank you
Unfortunately Analog is becoming less and less which means that in the future when a new POPULAR FPV Drone is released, their may no longer be ANALOG options. However, many smaller companies are committed to keeping ANALOG alive, so there will always be ANALOG FPV Drones.
@@rockscaler99 yes we can’t compare but Hdzero isn’t cheap and it’s not directly comparable to DJI. Walksnail is more direct comparable to DJI as it is variable latency system. And Hdzero cost same as walksnail and walksnail also has box goggle. So we can’t say Hdzero is cheapest or cheap without tasking into consideration walksnail too. That’s all
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 thanks captain. I would like to see walksnail review too. I have been comparing these systems and in the end I settled for walksnail because it’s more like DJI and I got it cheap :).
EMax is a great company. My first 2 quads were a TinyHawk and a TinyHawk Freestyle. Cool that they come out with HDZero goggles already.
Steve, I want to thank you for taking the time to be captain drone.. your videos have encouraged me to embark one some great drones. I've been flying quads for 10 years.

I’m waiting to launch my DJI mini 3 pro which I’m getting for Christmas.
I haven’t flown a drone in 8 years.
Keep the videos coming Captain!😃
Great Christmas gift for sure!
Emax HD Zero and a 5 inch quad is a perfect combination. I’m seriously interested. Thanks Captain for a great detailed review.
Your review is really useful, I got to know this model has 2 antennas, will the higher end model with 4 antennas Improve coverage distance?
I'm not familiar with the higher end model, but normally more antennas means better range.
hi captain. can I use my cheap $10 solder iron to get by . or should i upgrade a bit? can you recommend a good solder to use ? and where to buy and what type. just starting out . total rookie . thanks
Is the dji fpv drone more stabilized than the dji avata when it 's in the air??
Nope, opposite
What’s your favourite Fpv Drohne kit for beginners?
Emax kill8n it again. They are what got me into fpv and most likely what will get me to hd .
Hi, does the range of the emax Transporter 2 HD is significantly worst than the HDZero goggles?
Hi Steve. Frosty video....LOL I'm just not into these aircraft but love to watch others have at it. How far was the furthest stickers sent...
Lots went to Australia and many countries in Asia and North areas like Russia.
Thanks for all the great content as always very informative and helpful to the hobby. Happy Holidays
I can’t wait to see Emax make some Hd whoops now! I have the tinyhawk3 and tinyhawk race! They are neat drones but I can’t see much compared to my dji whoop obviously! So be awesome to see some whoops to go with the goggles! Thanks for showing us! Happy holidays!

Captain Drone decals have started to mail. I think everyone who asked for some should receive them.
Thanks for videos and happy holladays to all
great review! I have been out of the hobby for almost 10 years, so I'm used to 480p analog stuff... to run this, and take advantage of it, what vtx and camera equipment would i need on my quad?
You need to put the HD ZERO VTX on your quad.

hello do you think the holy stone hs510 is a good drone? or should i go with another drone

@@daniel.pendzich no its a gps drone😂😂
Finally! Cheaper HD!
That 250g is that with or without the battery? Makes a big difference!
184g so depends on what battery size you choose
Without battery
If I have these goggles i have to only get drones that have hd receiver in them in order to fly them?

It should fit. You'd have to ask EMAX about display availability.

@@CAPTAINDRONE798 ok thanks!!
Can this be used for analog aswell or strictly hdzero?
I only had it working with HD ZERO
Can you use Analog VTX with the transporter 2 sir?
Always entertaining and informative. Thanks 👍
Good evening captain really cool review nice set up
Excellent Video and Excellent Information. Thank You.
Man right when I’m in the middle of thinking is it worth it for my first fav quad to be digital because this just makes it more affordable. Do you think they would make a tinyhawk rtf kit with this soon? Or is that even possible currently
It is very possible.
I'm looking forward to seeing the new fimi fpv drone and wondering if hu will be the first to have it on their channel
If FIMI sends it to me, I'll show it.
Enjoy the week
Will these goggles work with the DJI mini 3 pro drones?
Nope

The gogges connect to any HD ZERO video system..... not Analog.
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 Yup makes sense Thanks Sir 🙌🏽
Is it 25mW Max Power for the HDZero VTX in this?
It is not a high power transmission on the drones, so range is limited to a small park for clear video
Thanks grateful for your information TJ
Got any stickers left Captain if so would love to have one TJ 502 north main Ave maiden NC 28650 if not all good keep making great videos very appreciated 👍
Sounds really insane
awsome review as always steve
Thank you!
Another good review Steve. Couple pf good products.
Thank you!
Looks cold
I'm guessing based on the weather outlook that it might get a little harder to fly in the next few days!
No flying for me

What kind of range would be realistic with this drone and goggle pair?
Based on the antennas on the drone and the HD ZERO goggles, the range is probably gonna be half a mile. Better antennas are needed to increase that.
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 Perfect thank you! Having the option to take the display off the box and mount it to RC for flying both FPV and LOS on same battery is great!

I cant bind the emax hawk apex to the emax e8 radio transmitter i got the express elrs
Been trying to bind for 3 days
Im starting to think that the e8 transmitter does not work with hawk apex express elrs
Dji fpv makes sense in 2023?
Would like to know that too
Yes
Will it work with DJI o3
Nope, this is HD ZERO
So only DJI goggles will work with DJI camera systems?
@@peskinproductions correct
So is it better to save money for the DJI o3 and the DJI v2 instead of hdzero for a beginner? Thanks for all you help so far! ❤️🫶
@@peskinproductions HD zero and Walksnail technologies are digital technologies for those on a budget, but DJI remains king of the Digital FPV world.
Good video mate, I subscribe to your channel😉👍
Welcome to the channel!
Excelente 📽👀🥰👏🏻
Hey does anyone know whether it’s better to 3d print arms for fpv drones or just buy them? The model I’m talking about is Eachine novice 4.
3D printed arms would probably break, as well they would vibrate.
Thanks 👍👍
Nice drone
hello, will DJi goggles work this drone? thank you
Nope, because it is HD ZERO and not DJI.

Nice
Where can I find firmware for these goggles? Manual? Anything?
EMAX is the only location
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 there is literally nothing, no manual. no firmware, like the goggles don't exist. Searched everywhere

Just got the ev 800d wat a bummer
Am sorry but this isn’t cheap. The drone and the goggle is over 600 USD. Analog is still cheaper
You can’t come close to comparing analog to digital. Apples and oranges, the intent is to compare dji vs hd zero.

HD ZERO is just another option out there for digital video. If you have DJI Digital, then you're all set.
It would be nice if emax released a dji version 🙂
