Innovatek V-490 HMD

[ob1]

Anybody tried these (http://www.mp3playerstore.com/stuff_you_need/special/i-glasses.htm) yet? Are they worth the money? Are they better than say the older VIO I-Glassess that can be bought from places like ebay? Any comments welcome.
thx...

Strange, I still can't get to it or their home page.

I have a pair and they work pretty well. Not the highest resolution in the world but you can still use them for framing shots.

How about using them for FPV flight?...are they up to the task?

[randall1959]

I would say they are. I don't use mine for FPV due to an inner ear thing but I've worn them to view the video later and I wouldn't see why they wouldn't work pretty well for FPV.

Please note - If you are in the USA and have not previously ordered from them, they will ask you to photocopy your credit card, sign the copy and fax or email it to them. I cancelled my order.

I just bought a I theater and am pretty happy. I almost pulled the trigger on these V-490s on ebay myself, but what turned me away in the end was the screen size. these things only have .6 sq cm screens!! the famous sony glasstrons had a .7 sq inch screens on the a-55 and .5 sq inch screens on the a-35...big difference!! the Itheater that I bought has a screen size somwhere in between.

I use them for fly by video and they work very well for what you pay. I do put a towel over my head to block out extraneous light. They also have pretty good sound to boot. Good value.
