Skyzone 04o Pro & 04x Pro review nils vo 2026-02-21 | Update: Skyzone has released new firmware for the 04x Pro which basically fixes all of the issues. No update for the 04o Pro though.If you run the tests and somehow manage to get average latency of 8-12ms, please let me know. I'd love to be proven wrong so I can actually use my goggles.Heads up for iPhone users: The 240fps slo-mo is not actually 240fps and more like 120-160fps.Patreon: patreon.com/cw/NilsVoLatency tester (contains flashing images): latency-tester.thezonefpv.comDiscord: discord.gg/jhAK4UesUFMy FPV Sim: store.steampowered.com/app/3491280/The_Zone__FPV_Drone_SimulatorTest quad setup:Camera: Foxeer T-Rex, NTSC 4:3VTX: Foxeer Reaper Extreme v3Flight controller: NBD Hummingbird 305 F722Dirty power and bad grounding: Yes I know0:00 - Intro1:10 - Latency test setup2:34 - How it should look like3:08 - 04o Pro latency results3:37 - Fatshark HDO2 latency results4:11 - Video smoothness test5:59 - Is my goggle just broken?7:02 - What about the 04x Pro?7:44 - 04x Pro latency results9:21 - Ads reeeeeeee10:14 - Putting it into perspective12:13 - Community test results12:52 - Rest of the review15:51 - What am I gonna get now?

Analog FPV still King in 2024? nils vo 2024-07-26 | Tried analog FPV for the first time after switching to digital-only 2 years ago and man it feels so good. Flyable range is somehow better than DJI V1 because the image just gets a little sketchy instead of 5 fps with latency spikes. I was even using my side mounted VTX antenna which I didn't think would do that well with analog.Only got this one pack in because I smoked a motor and it was getting dark already.Also was using the new Gemfan Proxy prop here, which is awesome for this kind of right flying, but the colorways with the little specs in them seem to break a lot unfortunately :/Setup:Frame: itsFPV ERA (sponsored)Propellers: Gemfan ProxyMotors: T-Motor itsFPV 2306.5 (sponsored)Stack: T-Motor Velox F7 SERX: Radiomaster RP3VTX: TBS Unify Pro 32 HVFPV cam: Foxeer T-Rex, 20° tiltBattery: Ovonic 1100mah 6s 130cAction cam: DJI Action2, 20° tiltGoggle: Fatshark Attitude V6 + TBS Fusion
