This has happened to me once before, but it happened in Phuket a few days ago.
The glasses control unit cannot take the heat especially when the humidity is high.
It happened a few months ago at home in Perth when the temperature and humidity was not very high.
This time it was scary. I was keeping the BT control unit cool by wrapping it in a frozen cooler pack for a few minutes (so it didn’t get to cold and become unstable) between battery changes.
Soon after take-off it died without warning, nothing, black screen.
I was flying a Mavic Air so I had no readings what so ever. Also, I took off through a small hole under a jungle canopy. I could hear the bird, so I know it was fairly close but could not guess where it was.
What you do when you experience a BT 300 total blackout.
1 stay cool
2 remove the BT controller from the MA controller
3 connect a prepared phone to the MA controller you don’t have to restart the MA controller.
4 find your bird in the sky from the screen on the phone and bring it home.
Finally clean up the mess you created in your clothing.
Despite its issues I still love the glasses.
But Epson fix the darn heat/humidity issue.
