Today we take a look at the DJI Digital FPV System. The latest high def (HD) offering in the world of FPV. While the hardware is considered production, the firmware was still prototype at the time this video was made. So expect some minor changes for the production version.

In short, flying in HD is AMAZING. And the hardware is FINALLY in a form factor small enough to be practical in most FPV frames available on the market. It's easy to use, easy to setup, and the controls/integrations are intuitive making the flying experience simple and fun.
The amount of detail that your brain sees can really change the way you fly (you can see more). It seems to handle crashes and impacts without any unwanted tendencies. The HD footage that is captured, while not 4k, is pretty good. The goggles themselves can record up to 720p @ 120fps.
Overall I'm impressed and excited that this technology is finally here in it's current state. However there is one thing that I don't like. You'll have to watch the video to find out.
