DVR recording of DJI FPV at 500mW (as close to Byte Frost's 450mW I can get).
First time I've gotten to fly here with real sunlight, so I was curious how DJI's camera would handle the deep shadows. It does very well. I can still see little ghost branches hanging down and bare bushes sticking up with enough time to avoid, even while cruising at a good clip. The only sign of decreased signal is Focus mode, although it's not really clear when it activates and when it recovers. I never see any stutters in the video feed unless I put the quad entirely out of LoS below solid earth and even then it's pretty mild. So far, I haven't hit anything bigger than a blade of grass that I didn't see coming, and I'm seeing most blades of grass too.
Byte Frost video for comparison here.
