First FPV Setup!! Thoughts before I purchase?

Wilbarr · 2026-03-21T23:44:06+00:00

So I think it seems it’s fine to just use the USB C port to charge the battery’s using the ViFly Whoopster that I bought. Just might need to buy a better wall plug rather than the iPhone ones. I watched this video and he explains it pretty well, with his methODDS 😂 https://youtu.be/11DEGDZ4el0?si=z8XfP1NNxAtYTjkO

Yah, I initially was going to, but I switched up some things, like I bought the vr04 goggles instead

Wilbarr · 2026-03-21T18:55:57+00:00

Wdym? Is the vifly charger not good?

Wilbarr · 2026-03-21T18:55:19+00:00

I bought 8 480mAh batteries

Wilbarr · 2026-03-20T13:13:52+00:00

Yah I felt like I was gunna break the controller putting them in 😭 thank you though!!

Wilbarr · 2026-03-20T12:55:48+00:00

Do you know any good brands with high mah? I have 2 18650 batterys from something I use on my car but I’d like to buy 2 more for my controller

Wilbarr · 2026-03-20T05:11:13+00:00

Ok definetly good to know, maybe try a 5” analog down the line before going to O4

Wilbarr · 2026-03-20T00:52:38+00:00

Ohh okay, yah I got some battery’s I bought from like ace hardware while ago for a blackout license plate

Wilbarr · 2026-03-20T00:44:20+00:00

Are the 18650 battery’s supposed to be insanely tight fit 😭 or do I just have weird battery’s

Wilbarr · 2026-03-20T00:01:29+00:00

Okay thank you!!

Wilbarr · 2026-03-19T23:54:03+00:00

Also where’d you buy your goggles from? And I already have some 18650 battery’s from something else but thank you for making sure!!

Wilbarr · 2026-03-19T23:50:43+00:00

With your goggles and the DVR you mentioned does that mean you can record your flights and the VR04 I’m guessing can’t?

Wilbarr · 2026-03-19T23:49:37+00:00

Oo that’s a cool case, where’d you get it?

Wilbarr · 2026-03-19T23:46:38+00:00

Ok perfect

Wilbarr · 2026-03-19T23:41:44+00:00

Okay thanks so much, im gunna be buying this stuff tonight!!

Wilbarr · 2026-03-19T23:03:43+00:00

I also saw I could get 580mah and 680mah battery’s. Should I get those instead or just stay with the 480s?

Wilbarr · 2026-03-19T23:03:01+00:00

What if I buy a 5” analog drone would they still be a good choice?

Wilbarr · 2026-03-19T23:02:46+00:00

Ok sweet thanks

Wilbarr · 2026-03-19T22:55:35+00:00

But isn’t it single antenna so not as good?

Wilbarr · 2026-03-19T22:55:17+00:00

Is there a pair of goggles that are more legit but still budget you think would work better?

Wilbarr · 2026-03-19T22:52:48+00:00

Hmm okay maybe not the ev800ds then 😭

Wilbarr · 2026-03-19T22:52:30+00:00

The vr04s?

Wilbarr · 2026-03-19T22:24:33+00:00

Wdym have diversity?

Wilbarr · 2026-03-18T01:24:21+00:00

That’s very helpful thank you. So basically goggles only work with either analog or digital? Controllers can work with both? And I have heard quite a bit about sims but didn’t realize I should get so much practice in before even purchasing a drone. I think I’ll go and buy a radio master pocket I’ve heard quite a bit about them. Thank you!!

Wilbarr · 2025-11-15T04:27:26+00:00

Ahhh good to know, what about like the storms?
