Switching from DJI to Walksnail Avatar - My setup, tweaks and range / penetration test

DJI are the kind of company who want to sell you something every year or two, and that bugs me, i also recently discovered whoops and you just cant do it with DJI, so i was cautious and got myself a set of Caddx Walksnail Avatar goggles, a BetaFPV Meteor 75 and three pro v2 VTXs for my 5 inch kwads.

Taken me a long time to switch things over but man am i happy. For me in every way its better than my v1 DJI, same latency, way better video, and super comfy so its i'm chuffed.

Made a lot of changes to the goggles including antennas, straps, foam and more so i made a video along the way. Hope you can put up with my dull voice rambling but any questions let me know.

I'm not a Walksnail fanboy i still think o3 is better video quality - not by much, and i get why lot of people will stick with them, i also have no intention of stopping using my GoPro, so for me this is my weapon of choice!
