It happens to all of us: intermittent, flaky, flickering, noisy FPV video. It can cause panic and crashes! Sometimes though, if you know your gear enough, you can trust your skill and ability and ride through it. In this case, I had a camera that kept going black and rebooting on me on a regular basis - I flew it anyway. By just having confidence about my spatial awareness, I knew I would be fine. I added a bit of my DVR in the lower right so you could get a little taste of what was happening - check it out. It's funny how 1sec of black seems like about 5sec in the goggles!
