My DJI has adjustable pids and in a few seconds I get one single screen but these either are defective or I’m doing something wrong. I’ve tried for 20 minutes several times and I can’t get the to form one screen. Is there a certain way to adjust PID in 04X? Like binoculars you adjust pids until you see one circular lenses but these don’t have enough adjustment. • Posts: 21,401 Threads: 594 Likes Received: 9,030 in 6,684 posts Likes Given: 1,428 Joined: Jun 2018 Reputation: 796 All you need to do is move the IPD sliders. That is all. Do you happen to know what the IPD of yours eyes is? Is it within the adjustment range of the Sky04X goggles? Thinner or thicker faceplate foam can sometimes also help. • Posts: 1,844 Threads: 203 Likes Received: 346 in 264 posts Likes Given: 306 Joined: May 2020 Reputation: 11 My PID Id have to measure but I’ve tried for a few hours and just can’t get a single picture. My PID isn’t written on my prescription because doctor measures PID every time I get a new frame so I’d have to call him. I’ve noticed one side doesn’t do anything no matter where I move the lens/screen nothing changes.It moves but doesn’t effect number of screens in goggles. I’ve tried adjusting like binoculars where the two bubbles overlap and become one but they won’t do that. My DJI goggles are super easy but these I really don’t know. I can’t even get the images to blur together.It’s just 2 of everything. • Posts: 1,844 Threads: 203 Likes Received: 346 in 264 posts Likes Given: 306 Joined: May 2020 Reputation: 11 (10-Jun-2021, 03:23 PM)Rob3ddd Wrote: My PID Id have to measure but I’ve tried for a few hours and just can’t get a single picture.

I don’t understand.My DJI goggles are super simple to adjust PID but these I can’t get close to one image. Could it be firmware related ? • Posts: 21,401 Threads: 594 Likes Received: 9,030 in 6,684 posts Likes Given: 1,428 Joined: Jun 2018 Reputation: 796 If the optic assembly in one side isn't moving left and right when you move the slider it sounds like you have defective goggles. The IPD adjustment is purely mechanical and has nothing to do with firmware. • Posts: 1,844 Threads: 203 Likes Received: 346 in 264 posts Likes Given: 306 Joined: May 2020 Reputation: 11 10-Jun-2021, 04:26 PM (This post was last modified: 10-Jun-2021, 04:28 PM by Rob3ddd.)

The IPD adjustment is purely mechanical and has nothing to do with firmware. The optic assembly is moving but it doesn’t seem to help focus them in. The best way I can think to describe is by using two O O representing screens. Usually the pids adjust so they mesh together and become one O but mine barely touch or overlap in the middle. I’ve tried some thick DJI foam and no luck. They focus in nice but I can’t get one image unless I close one eye. I’ll call my doctor and see what my PID is but I have never had any problems with any frame I’ve picked out.Small,large,extra small John Lennon style and never a problem. I can say one doctor made a mistake measuring my PID and this reminds me of that. I just called doctor and my PID is 62 or 62mm. • Posts: 1,844 Threads: 203 Likes Received: 346 in 264 posts Likes Given: 306 Joined: May 2020 Reputation: 11 I’m curious how they PID differ from goggle or how the optics are fitted to properly line up. Just a little error and it could effect PID . There’s always margins of error in manufacturing or are they off center or at a angle? As far as making them to work for the most people in population I found this on web. “ The average adult's PD is between 54-74 mm“ Mine should be fine. It seems like if I could move them closer together the two circles I see in goggles start meshing into one but they only intercept at the center edges. • Posts: 21,401 Threads: 594 Likes Received: 9,030 in 6,684 posts Likes Given: 1,428 Joined: Jun 2018 Reputation: 796 10-Jun-2021, 05:37 PM (This post was last modified: 10-Jun-2021, 05:39 PM by SnowLeopardFPV.) According to the specs, the Skyzone Sky04X goggles have an adjustable IPD range from 58-71mm which should be fine for your IPD so I don't know why you are facing an issue with adjusting them to get a single image. I use some FatShark HDO analogue goggles and also some DJI FPV Goggles, and I don't have IPD adjustment issues with either of them. I don't know what my actual IPD is but on the FatSharks I need to have the adjusters as close together as they will go to get a single image which means my IPD must be around 59mm because that is the smallest they can be adjusted to. On the DJI FPV Goggles I need to have the sliders slightly out from the innermost position which makes sense because those go down to 58mm IPD, so a little out on the sliders will be ~59mm. • Posts: 1,844 Threads: 203 Likes Received: 346 in 264 posts Likes Given: 306 Joined: May 2020 Reputation: 11 They are supposed to cover 58-71mm. I can only see half the screen on one side . One slider seems to be no doing anything even though I can see optics moving. • Posts: 21,401 Threads: 594 Likes Received: 9,030 in 6,684 posts Likes Given: 1,428 Joined: Jun 2018 Reputation: 796 There must be mechanical fault with the optics module or maybe they weren't put together correctly at the factory. I would contact the vendor and try to get a new replacement exchange pair of goggles under warranty. • Posts: 1,844 Threads: 203 Likes Received: 346 in 264 posts Likes Given: 306 Joined: May 2020 Reputation: 11 10-Jun-2021, 07:17 PM (This post was last modified: 10-Jun-2021, 07:20 PM by Rob3ddd.)

I would contact the vendor and try to get a new replacement exchange pair of goggles under warranty. I have tried for hours and not once did I get one image. I can get the images merging but only 1/4 of the edges merge and then there’s no more adjustment left.I don’t know if they start merging once they start getting close to where they need to be. I don’t think there’s any settings in betaflight that could effect what the goggles see except OSD display but this is the PID out of wack. I sent vendor an email and will see what happens. • Posts: 209 Threads: 20 Likes Received: 88 in 69 posts Likes Given: 42 Joined: Feb 2018 Reputation: 2 Clearly they're broken. Each slider (the slider, not the wheel) should move the corresponding eye's circular optic left and right. I close one eye and adjust the PID position on the other until its centered. then repeat on the other eye. I then open both eyes and move the focus adjustment wheels on each side until the composite "single" image is sharpest. I find that if I focus the eyes individually, the combined focus isn't optimal for some reason. • Posts: 1,844 Threads: 203 Likes Received: 346 in 264 posts Likes Given: 306 Joined: May 2020 Reputation: 11 (10-Jun-2021, 07:57 PM)txbdan Wrote: Clearly they're broken.

I find that if I focus the eyes individually, the combined focus isn't optimal for some reason. The optics move with sliders but I can’t get rid of the two side by side images . One side stays on the left other in the right but they won’t merge in the middle into one. • Posts: 1,844 Threads: 203 Likes Received: 346 in 264 posts Likes Given: 306 Joined: May 2020 Reputation: 11 Maybe someone can suggest how to take a picture of what is happening. The vendor wants a picture of problems. There’s no way to take a picture of what I’m seeing with goggles. All I know is I can adjust my other goggles in seconds but hours later I have not once got one image in goggles. • Posts: 21,401 Threads: 594 Likes Received: 9,030 in 6,684 posts Likes Given: 1,428 Joined: Jun 2018 Reputation: 796 These are a brand new pair of goggles right? You shouldn't have to prove anything. I'm not sure what kind of consumer rights you have in the US, but here the vendor would have to take them back and it would be their problem to investigate and deal with the issue. • |
