Operational Guidance
The two 5.8GHz wireless receiver modules and the new DVR system are built in the SKY03O FPV goggles. The
wireless receiver system can work in the diversity mode to improve the receiving effect. In this mode, the channel
and band settings for wireless receiver can be compatible with most of the conventional ISM 5.8GHz transmitters,
in order to support the 6 bands and the 48 channels (for detailed bands and channels, see the specification).
DVR system use high-quality H.246 video compression technology to better restore the video screen, save the
more storage space, support the 128GB high-capacity memory card(UHS-I U1), and support the automatic video
recording function. For details, see the description of the "Video" section.
Quickstart
Preparation
· Install the lenses, goggles, antennas and memory cards for the FPV goggles.
· Connect the camera to the transmitter, and turn on the power; set the working channel according to the
transmitter instructions; switch on the power for the SKY03O FPV goggles; long press the power button
for 3 seconds to turn on the goggles (long press the power button for 3 seconds to turn off the goggles).
· Short press the <BAND and CH> buttons to adjust the channel and frequency of the receiver, to match
the frequency of the VTX.
· Slide the IPD adjuster to adjust the interpupillary distance.
Channel Search
· Button Function
· Long press the <CH Search > button to pop up the channel search menu.
· Short press the <CH Search> button to start auto search (repeatedly). The auto search function is
performed from low to high according to the frequency. After searching for 48 channels, the receiver will
automatically work on one channel with the strongest signal. The signal strength of the channels is shown

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.
