EMAX Wyvern Link - OpenIPC - How It Works

[@mariofpv]

New OpenIPC Configurator has new buttons for native Betaflight/INAV OSD support via MSP DisplayPort. No need any additional files, just download and extract the latest OpenIPC Configurator.

[@droneready8278]

Could you please explain this a little further?

[@kyle-geniusn-h2038]

Is there a GS key like the runcan version

[@petrusoroaga6528]

When will you be testing RubyFPV on your air units?

[@AutomatedAgriculturalSystems]

Is your vrx compatible with the runcam wifilink? Great looking module!

[@highwaymen1237]

How long do you project before it is a finished product out of alpha and beta?

[@fritzstudios8571]

Awesome guys

[@jindrone01]

The coaxial cable connecting the camera and VTX seems too short. Do you plan to offer a longer cable?

[@midnightlead]

Is it possible to connect an action camera to vtx with about 15m of wires?

[@notsogood4321]

also i know its a big ask considering the amount of R&D that it would require but you guys should see if it would be market viable for yoy to make a hdmi out VRx module like the avatar module , it would lower the latency on the link and just be a better system that FPV plots would prefer over the phone app method you guys are currently using

[@zoey101dogwablog]

The team over at OpenIPC is already working on this and has a few prototypes in testing, more to come soon. The phone app is ONE of many ways to view the stream (especially with lower latency than with using a phone)

[@notsogood4321]

@@zoey101dogwablog i know , i have my own radxa DIY VRx module for my goggles , i asked mario and he said they put the VRx module on hold while they work on their own goggles which is why i wanted to plead my case to some manufactures , doubly so since everyone is running into the stuttering - which some believe to be because the radxa simply isnt powerful enough to record and stream the video signal

[@kmieciu4ever]

@@notsogood4321 thanks for sharing! I was about to buy the radxa, good thing it's sold out almost everywhere ;-)

[@stelic9515]

Has the phone app dual view for using with simple VR box goggles????

[@flat-earther]

the video receiver in digital FPV systems is a transceiver that transmits just as much as the video transmitter. I want the video receiver to not transmit anything. is that possible?

[@hackish1]

Interesting project. I wonder if there is any way to just get the VRX to output HDMI. This would be huge for goggles, LCD screens, TV's and other types of video devices

[@blackjungle308]

"Download this... And whatever you do, do NOT open it, or it will break everything!" - He says, after I paused the video, and opened it. (Joking. Thank you on the video! Can't wait to try this!)

[@gadgetman404]

Do I ship to uk

[@kmieciu4ever]

How are the OpenIPC goggles coming along? I sure hope they're cheaper than Walksnail L :-)

[@ahn_math]

We need the goggles.

[@sircrashalotfpv144]

everyone should support this system.

[@biglizardmedia]

lol open source is a neat idea until you understand there is no real quality control on anything and its way overcomplicated for your day to day flyer.

[@smooth_ops2942]

So simple and easy my 14 year old C++... IT wizard nephew could do it in 30-40mins 👍🏻....How much easier can it get?... 😮😢🤪

[@EMAXUSA]

Definitely why we are calling it Alpha. OpenIPC needs some time to become more user friendly.

[@biglizardmedia]

@@EMAXUSA No shit. As it is now, I'd rather shove a rusty nail down where the sun don't shine. This level of "download this, and this, and plug it here and have an extra controller board, and if you have apple you are just screwed, etc etc" is not user friendly AT ALL. Needs to be at least to DJI level where it's one unit I put in the drone, put on some goggles and just turn it all on. Needing OTG cables and a USB power source and an Android phone and this janky module that you don't know what to do with for mounting all looks like a massive pain in the ass

[@GlowShow5113]

You'll never convince me there is no latency. With all those devices in the path

[@biglizardmedia]

Yup

[@78KPK]

No hdmi out for connecting the VRX to goggles?

[@smika710]

this is an alpha product not meant for a final consumer like you

[@kmieciu4ever]

This is just an external Wifi card in a 3d printed box.

[@NorgeSquad]

Is this 5.8GHz?

[@EMAXUSA]

Yes it is

[@MrTimmyGT]

Ehhh.....maybe in a year or 3 when it's a little more refined....

[@mariofpv]

Sure! You can wait for 3 or 30 years if you want. In the meantime we will be enjoying this awesome open source fpv system. Cheers mate!😄🍻

[@notsogood4321]

i can understand that feeling , if it helps i think the improvments being made will probably make it a more viable setup sooner rather than later in my opinion

[@HolyOllie]

kiss your closest early adopter on the cheek as they are the reason this technology will keep improving, like expresslrs once did

[@APS-yo8oy]

@@mariofpvor you can just buy an 03 unit and enjoy superior hd flight. You must have a lot of free time to fiddle fart around

[@Clickmaster5k]

@@mariofpv What does it do better enough to bring people over from other more established systems? Is audio working yet?

[@biglizardmedia]

This is...... the dumbest shit I have seen in FPV in a long time. This is WAY to involved for day to day use. Is it neat? Sure. Is it a neat idea for an open source system? Sure. But the problems you run into are the same that ELRS has. When it's open source, you need a very specific dedicated team to building it who basically make no money doing it and then everyone using it gatekeeps and the community sours on them. That's just the first problem. There is a reason I went to Ghost after the ELRS Discord pissed me off enough. Having to keep a separate dongle for camera setting? Bleh. No goggle support? Bleh. Even Walksnail is more user friendly than this. And three different downloads and complicated and questionable applications you need? Until this system can be installed easy, has goggles you can just turn on and take your phone out of the whole process, and the app for updating is just one single app not dependent on other bullshit 3rd party software this will never beat out DJI. Is it expensive? Sure, but my O4 and my G3 are the BEST flight experience I have had since being around since 2016.
