Elliot,
When the blackouts occur, you completely lose all feed instantly and the screen goes completely black with no osd or anything. No slowly losing feed like a range issue, this is total loss of feed. It does not come back either. Your only option is to initiate failsafe or cut power and go down because you are blind in an instant. It is a problem with the micro HDMI port/connection. My own testing has found that it appears more frequent after the HDMI cord I am using has had some time on it since it occurs more frequently using a hdmi cable that has been used and starts having this issue. I have purchased high end hdmi cables as well and it still is a reoccurring issue but it is less frequent when the hdmi cord is brand new
. It is the result of that connection interface between the hdmi micro connector and the goggle connector that due to a movement gets worse over time due to it not being totally secure. I believe if that connection were to be secured where there would be little to no movement when plugged in would prevent this from happening. There are MANY pilots flying Connex Prosight that have switched to goggles that are NOT 720p to keep the black screen of death from happening. The Glyphs have by far the best clarity and high definition, however this problem is an issue that is significant. Flying my Connex Prosight on my Skyzone V02S+ goggle with hdmi is just a little better than analog visually and no where near the clarity and view that the Glyph's have.
I am excited after initially seeing the specs on your goggles. If they operate like it looks they will, I see no reason why they would not become the most popular goggle on the market. Your goggles check all of the boxes that I think would make the perfect goggle!
This is my Zeus with a Connex Setup and a 4k lens. It would be super happy to be able to fly without me having to ditch when it blacks out.
I have no idea why this happens with the goggles you referred to.
We are testing the issue with Kaptain G and prosight Connex. Doesn't have any problems at the moment but we will keep testing.
We took the cameras and Connex far away until goggles lose the signal and bring it back close to goggles and then it shows the screen again without any problems.
I also attached the photo I took that shows goggles have turned on long time. (I didn't know the timer of prosight connex resets after an hour so just have this photo.)
I will post the result of field test later.
We hope our goggles also make HD solution users satisfied
