[@VictorSeedorsky]

Very good video. Very informative and all clear and well shown with camera. Also nice to see all the process from start to betaflight setup and test. Only test in the air is what I am missing here. Other than this great job!

[@TRONCATFPV]

Glad it was helpful!

[@tristanfpv30]

Best conversion video ever ❤ it is super clear and easy to understand 😊

[@life_4clicks774]

That was really awesome... neet and clean job.. appreciate man❤️❤️❤️

[@TRONCATFPV]

Thanks!

[@KOrnhOliO1]

Really well done video! Your camera angle showed everything!!! 😎🤘

[@TRONCATFPV]

Thanks! I try to show as much detail in these videos as possible. Thanks for watching 🤙

[@dougmcpheters1546]

Great work man! And very informative. I was thinking the USB C port could face rearward for easier access. But it looks like the wires against the ducts are preventing that...New sub here. Glad I came across your channel.

[@Darksagan]

Very nice. Finally gonna make the plunge also got way too many kwads that will need converting.

[@TRONCATFPV]

Once you make the plunge all of those analog VTX's, antennas and cameras are good for basher drones you can practice with 😉

[@KLNYC]

I need to hop on the HD bandwagon soon.

[@TRONCATFPV]

I was hesitant at first because of the price compared to analog. IMO It is very, very worth it!

[@yanassi]

Wow, this is above my pay grade, but i think for those who are, this is a wonderful video. For the possible newbie interested in sub250 cine drones, what would troncat think about dji or autel not having fpv capability built in their mini or nano plus drones? Seems like a minor adaptation for those proficient enough. Or am i missing something?

[@bengordon7635]

haahhah I converted some back to analog ,, so used to flying with headphones hear sound of motors , The Rush Tank with AKG mic is insane , coming out of dives and loops through small holes ,, sound of motors a must ,, ,makes you so much more confident coming out of stuff !! Digital just needs onboard mics too !!!!!!!! WTF !!!!!! not like we are in the 80s ,, Mabey the latency is why with digital ??????

[@GregSupe]

Very useful stuff man, especially with the high prices of electronics. Just buy an analog quad and use the HD kit from another one of your quads you have as HD. 😁💪

[@TRONCATFPV]

Thats what I do with a couple of my drones! most are wired up with the same 4 pin connector and I can just remove the vista and put it in whichever drone I want to be digital. Glad you found the video helpful, thanks for watching!

[@GregSupe]

@@TRONCATFPV yep I just got the nazul 5 with the Vista as video and crossfire as receiver. Had to solder the gnd and sbus, mod the configuration in beta flight and poof good to go.

[@devilcfpv2621]

Or just build your own from scratch instead of getting BNF’s. I would 1000% much rather buy a frame and all the individual parts, because bnfs aren’t the greatest, don’t get me wrong they are great for starting out but they aren’t what they could be. If you know or “learn your stuff or all the stuff that is out there” you can build some amazing things. For example I have a freestyle quad that I built. And I clocked it at 133mph. That is insane especially for a freestyle quad that weighs 820 grams 😂 with the gopro on it. You can make them as tuff as you want as fast as you want as light as you want, the realm of endless possibilities with fpv is amazing... I personally have no desire to buy a analog rig never wanted to, even when I started out I actually waited to get into the hobby for digital because I hated the static, snow, & the lines it renders you to the point where your unable to see and in the end you spend twice as much because your crashing twice as hard twice as much all because your sending a bird into the sky at rocket speeds yet practically blind folded I’m honestly surprised analog isn’t banned, with all the rules and regulations going on towards our hobby with the faa I’m surprised they weren’t like well analog is out of the equation for good it’s to dangerous because of the lack of being in control because of the lack of vision lol wouldn’t that be some shit 😂 I personally would love that simply because analog pilots have a beef with us digital guys lol man that would be the day... digital is the future weather if it’s HdZero, sharkbyte, or dji

[@GregSupe]

@@devilcfpv2621 I do agree but not many people are good at soldering so it tends to be intimidating. Especially since if you get it wrong you fry your electronics. it's always good to have something ready made to ensure you are flying while you are building out your personal quad.

[@devilcfpv2621]

@@GregSupe I mean you could look at it that way or you could say to your self you know what I can do this and try it out, soldering seriously is very easy it may seem intimidating but I assure you it is your own mental self doubt that is holding you back.... if you really are that worried then what you do is you get a broken board or order a practice board and you start practicing I think all in all the hardest thing for me to learn the techniques on was the power leads, those took me longer to learn for sure. Flux is your friend you need to make sure you have a temperature controllable soldering iron and 63/37 Rosin core is the best, practice and learning the technique is key I have helped a dozens people in the last year in showing them there first steps in how to build their first quads from scratch and if they can do it you can do it just believe in yourself I no you can do it

[@Yaroslav_Tselovanskyi]

Does it support feed encryption? Is it even possible with it?

[@anzeparadiz8066]

Cool video, I was just thinking whether you can use any other fpv googles with digital system than dji ones

[@Blizofoz45]

You can't with DJI. But if your analog goggles have a HDMI "in" port, the HDzero and Walksnail digital systems will work with them if the screen resolution is high enough. You can also connect their receivers to a laptop, big screen TV or home theater projector.

[@Januar_koto]

WOW Amazing 👍🏻👍🏻

[@PierreFromCanada]

SO wait,,,,( admitedly i'm a newbee) I can only change my video to digital, and keep the rest the same.. (controlling the flight using ELRS, and my TX16s...)?

[@TRONCATFPV]

Yup! the receiver is a separate component from the video gear 👌

[@danyalahmad2097]

@@TRONCATFPV what the benefit of doing it

[@Adilson.Xavier]

Perfect !

[@dronefilmsgermany]

Great work. Does the eachine cvatar analog 6s support caddx vista?

[@kuliahtransportasi]

thanks man

[@19Jose91]

Why rx to tx? Shall i check the flight controller or is always like that

[@TRONCATFPV]

best way I can describe it is rx=receive & tx=transmit The way that both components communicate with eachother is through the RX and TX pins, so the transmitted signal (TX) will always be received by an RX pin.

[@Indonesia01ian]

Hi is there any receiver otg/monitor to show Digital from DJI O3 without goggle?

[@nelsonkdh]

Well done!

[@TRONCATFPV]

Thank ya Nelson!

[@enjoyyourlife2518]

Shouldn't you use a smoke stopper ?

[@buckrogers2752]

he did

[@Krash_fpv]

So there's no setting up vtx table or set uart ir anything like that for vista?

[@TRONCATFPV]

nope!

[@zanderx7]

What are the other two wires for at 4:22

[@delta-a17]

Does the DJI Controller have any special features that control the camera? What would those extra wires be for?

[@TRONCATFPV]

not to my knowledge. the extra wires that are on the vista are simply for the reciever function to communicate with the FC. Thanks for watching!

[@delta-a17]

@@TRONCATFPV Thanks for the quick response!

[@paulhope3401]

You can change all the cam settings in the goggle menus if thats what you mean. These extra wires are ground and Sbus for when you use the Vista as a receiver for the DJI remote.. if you choose to use one.

[@jnevlogs.]

do you need a receiver even if you have a caddy x polar vista unit ? or does it come with the unit

[@TRONCATFPV]

you can use the air unit as the receiver if you're using the DJI remote. If you're not using the DJI remote you'll need a standalone receiver

[@williamwan9923]

Good

[@yanir.tzabary]

what goggles are you use with this one?

[@TRONCATFPV]

For my analog drones I use Orqa FPV.one pilot goggles

[@FrancescoMensurati]

Just why you should?

[@TRONCATFPV]

Why should you switch from analog to digital? Higher image quality and better penetration?

[@kryptedcode]

Could u suggest a good but cheap camera??

[@ZillionPrey]

Digital isn't cheap :) if money is s concern keep it analog.

[@TRONCATFPV]

The caddx Turbo EOS2 is a great analog camera that is on the cheaper side. www.banggood.com/custlink/D3myNdBE9n

[@paulhope3401]

Analogue or dji digital ?

[@kryptedcode]

@@paulhope3401 don't know what those words mean but I would say that I want a camera can be used for both, flying fpv and recording as well

[@paulhope3401]

@@kryptedcode Unless you have dji goggles or shark byte then you will be looking for analogue type cams. You will need goggles capable of onboard recording... or.. If you want to record high definition video on the plane or quad itself you will have to go with an expensive DVR type camera such as the Tarsier, turtle or split etc My knowledge on analogue isn't up to date though so others will be better positioned to inform you of your best options. My be worth supplying a bit more info though such as your budget, what goggles you have, what quad or plane you have etc etc. Have a look at Oscar Liangs web page, it provides a lot of information about everything fpv and is especially helpful for beginners.
