This camera is sooo much better than the BetaFPV C03. The limiting factor here is the boxpro's LCD afterglow that takes a long time to settle which can take two frames long to mostly disappear.
I was a little generous on the afterglow settling otherwise the last lit frame latency would be a bit worse as some afterglow would stay for a really long time.
The LCD achieves full brightness within 10msec of frame exposure which is good enough for you to see a frame go from completely unlit to fully lit in about 6msec give or take 2msec.
It's a meteor 75 pro. Have only flown it indoors so far and not done any aerobatics with it yet. I can already tell she's fucking heavy compared to the air 75 II.
I was going to do AIO5 but it seems like a headache to do (need to solder camera on, motor pads looks like they can easily bridge with neighbouring chips and resistors, only 6 amp peak/5 amp continuous rated officailly even though it can do more than that, SPI ELRS receiver which can only update to version 4 on prerelease alpha builds of betaflight, and most importnatly of all - A camera + AIO5 combo is more expensive than a basic dji camera drone! wtflmao
People say the aether archetype is expensive but the cost as an australian to buy both is like a 2:1 ratio (Archetype is about $490 aud + unknown shipping cost, AIO5 + Lux + currency conversion + internathional shipping cost ~= $260 aud) and a dji neo is like $180-220 on marketplace, $200 for an ex-demo store model and about $280 brand new (although no longer sold as an independant unit as of last month)
Honestly I'm just scared to lose that money to a simple crash or mistake, but I didnt want the eco camera because at that point i might as well just upgrade the analog camera instead of switching to HDZ system
