“Flying in FPV is great, but the devices to receive and view images in real time cost a kidney. That was before. “Immersion masks (as opposed to glasses) are lightweight and have an inversely proportional weight. That was before… Because Eachine announced the availability of the VR005 immersion mask…
It weighs only 145 grams, for dimensions of 15 x 12 x 6 cm. The price? The VR005 only costs $36.99 at Banggood! It is based on a 2.7-inch screen with a resolution of 960 x 240 pixels behind a 3.5x magnifying lens with a FOV of 120. This is not great, but the price makes it possible to forget the low definition of the images.
The floor price is all the more appreciable as the mask comes with an integrated 5.8 GHz receiver module, compatible with 48 channels including Raceband frequencies. It is a model with two stick antennas delivered (but probably not Diversity). It has an automatic frequency search function. The battery, also delivered, is a 1000 mAh Lipo 1S with USB charging. Eachine’s VR005 is therefore ready to use, to start in FPV at a light price, or to have a secondary viewing device to equip “passengers”…
