Update 2019-08-01: Skyzone has published the new firmware for SKY03 goggles:
” – we add voltage calibration function in system setting menu, voltage can be calibrate around ±0.9V
During the calibration process, the voltage reading is changing in real time. For more accurate calibration, multi meter is required.
The Voltage reading on OSD is the loaded voltage of the battery (the goggles is the load), by using the multi meter to reading the loaded voltage of the battery, you can calibrate the voltage reading on OSD, so the reading is equal to the real voltage of the battery.
– we add rssi icon, and fixed some bugs “

Always been a SKYZONE Lover and resisted the temptation of Fatshark’s. My v2+ have been perfect for 3 years , even had them upgraded to 40ch with no problems , Now it’s time to upgrade to these.
SKYZONE has been a reputable company, not the newbie in this hobby, so we expect some quality product. Lets hope these goggles will be the true hit in the market.
same as Rich above, I’m using V2 Fatsharks for years noiw, they held super fine… but this googles looks very nice, and I might upgrade to them and do a review or something 🙂
Greetings to multirotor culb of Slovakia! Yeah these arelooking very good. So far no more details. I’m waiting for SkyZone to announce them officialy.
Very nice looking goggles. I would love to try them out. I have been looking at the options out there but have no clue what would be the best for me. I only have vision in one eye so I could use a good set of goggles with a good wide FOV.
i can buy a car here for the same price. gona have to start saving
Oh, wait, there are even more expensive goggles now – Skyzone SKY03O with OLED displays! (http://www.multirotorguide.com/news/skyzone-sky03o-oled-goggles/)
