I refuse to pay 500 for the latest fat sharks. F those guys. mods like this are the real fatshark killer. nice work.

[@francisroan]

Would have been so useful if the blue screen doesn't come on when there's no signal. But I guess that's the issue of the FS receivers. They kill the output when there's no reception. That's really bad when you're flying and you suddenly get blue screen instead of at least some level of static so you can make out something.

[@harryfp1494]

I seen in a different video that you could fix that issue

[@jcofpv]

@@harryfp1494 which video? I'm planning on doing this mod

[@Drzeq]

The link to the FatShark module from the EV800 video is dead, is it still obtainable? Is it possible to do the same mod to work with HDZero or even DJI? Are there simmilar modules available for these systems? I'd greatly appreciate if you could share links to such modules. Thank you, you did a great job with this video, I'm new to the hobby and to the soldering, but I'm sure I'd be able to do it myself. Cheers!! :)

[@ArchmageAU]

Great work. Like how the mod is reversible (non-destructive). Can see this helping people.

[@mssippijim]

I have a friend who's internal receivers are great in the EV800D, mine, on the other hand suck. Thanks for the mod.

[@skydogfpv]

Mine seem to be awful as well... did you do this upgrade?

[@Asu01]

The AV in port looks like a 3.5mm port. If so, you can take an advantage of the third unused pin as power output, thus no dangling wires and neater look. And oh yeah, love that JB style "I'm from the future" correction.

[@hanquah]

Can i use av and plug directly thru the av input. So no need for wire? I plan mod the crap out of this 800d

[@BenjaminClemons]

is there a way not to get blue screen when you loose reception and to get static ?

[@mssippijim]

You mentioned a blue screen with no signal present...does this happen when signal drops in use? If so, it's a deal killer.

[@eternalfpv9461]

This is a great question. I'm wondering too

[@nejcosolnik9749]

Yes, when signal gets very weak you get a blue screen.

[@gombi77]

What is the solution of the problem??

[@MERCURYMAD]

This should also work with AKK Diversity RX correct?

[@kool-k-kel]

will this mod produce a blue screen when reception is lost ? on your module ...i.e does it fade to white noise/static or just blue screens you...= crash!!! thx guys great mod, ive read through the comments and this issue is asked a few times , with no answer... cheers

[@elbedouirayen7938]

Please can the rapidfire work the same way?? Thank u

[@paulpark4899]

[@bennedictbyy]

What is the purpose of installing Fat Shark Modules?

[@ulissesmuniz]

Better reception

[@tomfunk7514]

Thanks this helped out a lot great video. I had some very slight bit of fuzzy or grainy video in mine so I used a shielded wire and removed the yellow and now its clear as day. Thanks again. I also did a small fan on mine just under the rear part cause my glasses would keep on fogging up and wired it to the external battery plug. Now no more fogging.

[@illpro2]

Might as well go all the way and have an external 1S Battery connected to a voltage step-up module to power the fat shark module. Then connect with a modded AV cable. So you don't even have to change the goggles at all.

[@RCinginSC]

This is true.

[@Everett-xe3eg]

There is an open 3.3v pad on the board. The RTX6715 chips(inside our favor rx5808 modules) runs off a stepped down 3.3v. It will work fine off the 3.3v open pad near the second antenna.

[@Everett-xe3eg]

Because AV doesnt support snow or static does that mean when you fly into static the thing turns blue? Does the DVR record AV in or just the FPV feed?

[@properix9139]

Will this work with the Eachine PRO58 module or only with fatshark?

[@KrotowX]

Remove internal battery in favor to external Fatshark type one through 2.1mm Jack connector. Apply voltage level indicator fix. Details are described in RC Groups. And install low voltage alarm buzzer, please.

[@DroneMesh]

link?

[@KrotowX]

Yep.

[@IIIDarkWorlDIII]

Oh man that was helpful

[@dickysoeliantoro5576]

Does putting the goggle to AV mode turn off the stock internal receiver? Otherwise, it's like running 2 receivers, and will be very power hungry.

[@Qubnix]

What do you think about adding second fatshark module and make quadversity? Will it work with this gogles software?

[@playmatee1]

Is there latency difference with them ? Also where is the 5v regulator and right pin or scheme , that should be the best place i think ,? ((or itsuck power from the screen, i don;t believe.)) ??

[@shattereddnb3268]

Simple and genius! Do you know what the rest of the unused pins on the module is for?

[@JustForFunRC]

doesn't it try to go to blue-screen when the signal gets weak?

[@FPVisioning]

No

[@nejcosolnik9749]

Yes. When signal gets really weak it jumps to blue screen.

[@gombi77]

My problem is same.when the signal is low jump blue screen.what is the solution of the problem??

[@JustForFunRC]

@@gombi77 I had the blue screen because i was connecting trough the video input jack of my goggles. My solution was to remove the internal module on the googles and wire the new module directly. now it doesn't go to blue screen anymore.

[@Memento86Mori]

Cool man. I think I may put the some electrical tape on the back of the screen to be just extra carefully. Not necessary but maybe give some people alittle peace of mind

[@Tonynux]

I'd like to do that on my FXT Viper V2, but I do not understand how to switch source to VIDEO IN on the goggles. There is a HD IN source, but I think that one is for HDMI input.

[@DangerFPV]

It works IT REALLY FUCKING WORKS!! hooked up rapid fire and checked and it said its not in low power mode

[@hrithikaron1992]

Does the DVR still record?

[@aidelis7]

Great tutorial! I will do my best to follow your instructions and not fry my goggles! Well done!

[@tw3413]

This is a good mod. Saved me hassle to find out where to connect what after my internal RX started going haywire. One suggestion is to install L/C filter in the power line to fatshark module as without it I had some interference/lines. I used a super micro L/C filter (www.myrcmart.com/lc-filter-super-micro-for-micro-multirotor-14s-1a-current-02g-p-11036.html) and now the signal is perfect.

[@IIIDarkWorlDIII]

How much lag does it add?

[@major751]

Nice video. Um, wouldn't it be a lot easier to put the negative and video wired onto a AV jack then you could just plug it in and take it out whenever you wanted? Then do a plug off the 5v so again you could just plug it in? Just a thought.

[@DFEUERMAN]

I recommend adding kapton tape to entire back of the screen. The back of the screen looks like thin-steel or aluminum, and it's is conductive. One youtuber demonstrated in his battery mod video that this metal back is charged at something like 5v, so it causes bad interference if the screen touches the circuit board. (It was happening to me.) Yeah, so about 2 or 3 single layer pieces of kapton tape did the trick! (depending on the width of the tape. I think I have a roll of 2" wide kapton.) I hope this helps someone!

[@smks5]

What module is this that you use?

[@kristofferrye2203]

what module to use in 2020?

[@RavenWindrunner]

Does it hurt the goggles to power them up without antennas? Or is that only an issue for transmitters?

[@leandroebner1405]

There's NO(!) problem with ANY(!) goggle or reciever. Only with transmitters, if you're unlucky you'll fry it. Some are protected, some not. So try to avoid it in any case.

[@slobodanbirgermajer6117]

Hey DM, I just checked. The EV800 also have AV in. So probably it is possible to do this same on EV800, and not to damage the receiver. The MENU button on the EV800 will change to AV.

[@DroneMesh]

There are 2 versions as I know for the ev800

[@slobodanbirgermajer6117]

well, I have the version with AV IN. I'm waiting for the Eachine PRO58 RX module and will try modding it by AV and not removing the internal module.

[@slobodanbirgermajer6117]

and above the all, thanks for the great work and as always great educational videos regarding FPV quads!

[@masslona]

@@slobodanbirgermajer6117 Hey, i'm very interested in the answer as well, did it work? Thank you!

[@RCinginSC]

Awesome. To take it a step further, instead of using the av jack to route the wires thru, drill a small hole to run wires in and leave the av jack open. Then you can still use it to run other av inputs into the jack, but I imagine you will need to unplug the module before doing that.

is possible to just connect a a/v jack on the fatshark module and plug in in the a/v in and power the module seperately?

[@IIIDarkWorlDIII]

Best place to solder 5 V red cable would be after the capacitor on the way to some other 5v consumer bro. Im thinking I should make a video with the explanations of where exactly to solder and also with the coax. What do you think?

[@JasonEllingsworth]

Please make a mod video! If possible making use of the a/v In jack instead of everything soldered to the board.

This 3 wire also can use for eachine pro58 module sir??

[@billybbob18]

Some modules really need an actual 5.0 volt power supply. Not 4.8 or 4.9. Sometimes they benefit from 5.1v.

[@mastafoo886]

@Drone Mesh, from a purely logical standpoint, this should work with any goggles that have AV in right?

[@billybbob18]

That's my thought on this. I went as far as to de-pin the receiver module from the circuit board and run wires to the + - and video signal pads. Now my 40 dollar goggle has as much range as any fatshark goggle.

[@JasonEllingsworth]

@@billybbob18 can you please post a video showing this and explaining it? This sounds like a very helpful mod for the community who is new to FPV and your contribution would be greatly appreciated I am sure.

[@MCsCreations]

FANTASTIC work, dude! 😃 Yeah, those goggles are awesome! Super comfortable to wear too! And, please, try the DVR! But put the internal modules in a different channel first, to get only statics, to be sure it's recording the AV in. 😉

[@kral5932]

NIce video, just a few questions before I do this. 1. Does the av in still work if you route the wires differently? 2. When using av in I notice the goggles have bluescreen. Is this a big issue? 3. Is there a lot of added latency? Could you maybe test it?

[@RCinginSC]

I feel like I can answer this. Yes, the av in will still work if you route the wires differently. If you leave the jack open and you can still use it to plug in other av compenents . You must unplug module first though. Second, the blue screen is normal when av in is selected with no input . Once an input is given , it will display. Third, there should be no added latency. All the Google is doing is internally switching inputs. Hope that helped.

[@Reecefpv]

So got a question. If I have the 2nd version of the ev800 that has the av in like the ev800d version. Could I do it just like this except for voltage regulator to part for the ev800. Well Idk now I'm worried that if you go into bad signal the screen would just turn blue like it just did there at the end. That's scary
