My first flight with the Moverio BT300

[Aviator]

WOW!
Got it on Friday, been setting it up, downloading apps and registrations....
This evening took it flying. Its not what I took pictures of but about the experience of FPV while LOS.
I was in a local park and peeps were walking, some with dogs (who were very cognizant of a drone) and were looking up at the drone. I was clear of them all the time.
Had the medium darkness shades that came with it, and had to wear my glasses which I usually do. No tablet, no other device to back up.
Crystal clear in bright sunlight with the setting sun right at me.
I think I am pleased. I got it for D-SAR operations and this will be a great tool in the toolbox.

AHA! So you liked them so much you went out and bought a pair! Good job.

Can I ask where you got them and how much $?

Directly from Epson. They have a sale on the BT300 refurbished for 499 with a warranty.

I like the idea of these but have not tried them. A bit concerned that someday DJI will mandate a firmware update and Epson won’t support it anymore leaving you out a lot of money. Haven’t had time to do much research though. DSAR operations would be a great use for these though. Surprised DJI hasn’t come out with their own version.

Simple, just don't do the update.

I haven't updated my AC, or anything since I opened the box 2 almost 2 years ago....

Rock Solid with the Moverios (or any other setup with tabby or phone).

Do you wear your prescription glasses over the BT-300s?

Do you wear your prescription glasses over the BT-300s?

No, should be under the Moverio glasses using the additional "nose pad for glasses" as per the instructions with the Moverios.
