Hi guys, been looking into this recently - watched some very interesting vids from Ciotti as he spent a quite some time recently trying to sort out a digital tinywhoop - and admitted he kind of failed to find a viable solution (they are too heavy compare to analog)
So - analog tinywhoop it is (likely the mobula 6)
Funnily enough - Caddx released this week a free expansion module that includes an analog external receiver connector and supposedly solves some compatibility issues.
It should arrive in the next couple of weeks so looking at what else I would need
an analog receiver (likely Foxeer Wildfire)
2 SMA antennas for it
Now something I kind of just read about - looks like I will not have any DVR in the goggles (known Goggle X ‘issue/restriction’) - also pretty sure there is no onboard recording with analog (if somebody could confirm)?
If so - is anybody aware of options to get a DVR hooked in there - surprised not to find this more widely discussed online so not sure if I missed something
Analog tiny whoops don’t record onboard. Do you need the above and an analog receiver strapped to your goggles? Seems like a lot to have hanging off, especially if you need to then output to another device to record the dvr. Sounds like a better option would be a cheap set of analog box goggles even if it just sits next to you and records. I didnt have much look with the mob6 2024 2 died on me so I have the air 65 now, its cheaper and has lasted longer so far.
Also, you have to remember Ciotti’s version of a digital tiny whoop would be the ultimate digital tiny whoop. I am sure one of his failures would be amazing to us normal flyers
Thank you - yeah - seems it could be heavy to have it all on the Google - I could move it to a ‘mini ground station’ with a longer HDMI cable mind but this DVR issue would still require some extra hardware. Looks like another set of analog goggles may be a better option as you say.
Will look into the air 65
@Earwig the op is the thing I was talking about earlier that’s free upgrade for you (though guess analogue a downgrade you don’t want lol), but still a freebie.
Yeah - cool stuff from Caddx (would have been nice as an internal board upgrade but still )
Also brings the head tracking control of the Walksnail gimbals
I bought one of these mini DVR boxes a while ago. Another thing to charge but pretty cheap and works fine for when you want DVR. They just go in-line on the av jack so could go between your receiver and goggles.
Also I have the Air65 Freestyle and can also recommend them, been great so far!
Looks like Ciotti has more work coming up - HDZero has a new superlight AIO - just a couple grams off analog - still getting superhot though so likely less efficient but going in the right direction
I got a mob6 eco during last Racegow and that thing burns burns burns and battery about a minute less than analogue equiv. It’s great got it all on one board but at 100 dollars… 1 esc blows (and they blow a lot…) eek that’s a lot.
I don’t even use analogue 5 in 1s. Though may be tempted.
Let me know what DJI have a 1S vista AIO… Never lol
I was leaning towards walksnail for my first digital system but the HDzero AIO has really got me reconsidering especially with the quality of the goggles and the analog module.
The X are great but consensus seems to be a new v2 version will likely come out soon that will include this expansion board functionality (new 9-axis head tracking and analog module support) - not heard anything about the lack of dvr though…
I was watching reviews of analog goggles and found the hdzero one mentioned quite often - Bardwel, Mads,… are really raving about those - quite expensive though
even if it just sits next to you and records. I didnt have much look with the mob6 2024 2 died on me so I have the air 65 now, its cheaper and has lasted longer so far.
