You should have stick the step-up power wire input on the Rx power pad, instead of going on the batt connector. This way the module is powered ON with EV800's Power switch. Awesome video.
Be aware that some EV800 have battery wire color swapped! black=+3.7V! Also this will kill the battery leaving the fatshark module plugged when the goggles turns off. Be aware of this too!
cool mod, i like how you can easily reverse the mod so you could buy the fatshark module and then buy the fatsharks later to spread the costs and still have the ev800 as a ground station. i dont think its worth doing on the ev800d's, the diversity is already very good and it has a dvr, the 800d also has av in which i never got to work at all, . ps i added a inch section to make the goggles 2 inches longer, to reduce eyestrain.
The screen is massive you have to give these goggles at least that.. But with good reception (original reception sucks massive btw) these are the cheapest-highend spectator goggles.
Or just Use the Video input of the headphone Jack (3,5mm). Press the Menu Button,and the Display turns blue. Than connect Gnd and you Videosignal to it. (it comes whith an Adapter for this use) I think 5v is connected to the resiver Module, But im Not sure, i moddet Mine and Put an dvr in. Also i used the Power that is connected to the original resiver Module, becourse it can be tuned off. If i would Put a fatshark Module in i would desolder the working resiver Module and solder the original antenna connector on it,so i can use it for something else.
I got a EV800 for couple months, still struggle to get the FatShark and this is a great mod for temporary upgrade. Where's the link for the capacitor? Want to make sure I got the right one. Thanks.
So is the fatshark module always on as you soldered it to the battery? Surely you could solder it to ground and power where you solder the video? This would turn fatshark module on when power button is turned on?
Not bad, think my ev800's will be getting an Achilles upgrade now. Though I do wish we could use the channel and band buttons to select things on the new receiver
Good work. Any reason to not power the 5V regulator from the disconnected internal module power pins? This way the module will only be powered when the goggles are turned on instead of all the time the battery is plugged in.
I have this makerfire ev800d. I know this is the clone one, and lower quality. Opened it up, it only has had 1 receiver with 2 antenna (antenna diversity i belive some people called it). Removed the receiver, but when i powered pro58 receiver to power pad from the removed receiver. The google keep powering down. I bought step up to 5V and some micro on off switch, they are still in transit. Going to connect to battery socket on the board. And using on off switch to switch the receiver on off. So it won't suck dry the battery when goggle is off.
Is DVR in the goggles or in the module? I mean if we replace it as you did will we keep the DVR function?(I have EV800D) Also are the modules that much better than original rx - worth changing?
Hey man, I did this mod, and the DVR mod with it. You have to keep the battery inside it tho bc of how much juice its pulling with the diversity mod and dvr. Did the audio for head phones. And I even did the display for the DVR screen. Took some thinking about the DVR menu screen. I had to use 2 of the 5v things you have, and it was really hard to find another spot to use for it, after like 2 hrs of trying I found one. If you need some pics I'll send them to you
Thanks for the video! I made this hack and having a problem, video works great but when a turn on the radio I get interferences in the video signal. I tried shieled wires but didn't work. Any idea what to check?
@@criciv1997 Y I power it up from 3,3V in googles and I put them on 5V input it just works fine (just batery will bee drained quickly and also brightnes wil go litle bit down by this but stil you can use DC/DC converter 3,3 to 5v (it will be optimal I think
Could you tell us where we should solder the audio pin from receiver in order to have audio too? It would be highly appreciated. Also could we get power from the old receiver in order to power on and off the module with the button? Thank you in advance!
I just received the ev800d and ev800 4 hours before releasing this video. I have not even opened the ev800d yet so I can not answer your question just yet.
I had both ,EV800D is better option ,I did MOD my EV800 and installed a DVR .Both are very good value and excellent receivers ,but the D has the edge for DVR and diversity. I use 1 x Aomway and 1 x Omni Pagoda Antenna's and honestly for me this gives best reception even behind hedge rows and tree's ,top tip be careful with the push buttons as they are very small SMD type and are very difficult to replace.Also fit a 1500mAh lipo on the rear head strap ,just stitch on some elastic and this will balance out the goggles perfectly.
Well definitely not for 50$ just the goggles maybe I was just about to go buy the module but its like 57$ by its self unfortunately but still a great video and still trying to do this to my goggles so I can use a patch and omni
Please help iv looked everywhere and can't figure out if it's possible to replace that rpsma on ev800 with an sma plug instead. Rpsma is hard to find in all varieties
Hey did you do the audio for this yet???? Was wondering. I know you dont like to do it bc you dont use it hahah, but be a brother and do the audio for me since I hot these goggles bc of you haha...... love you man, I'm a pain in the ass I know
@@DroneMesh yeah but that involves shutting down the internal reciever, but in the ev800D mod you used the AV in jack.. That would be possible on the ev800 too right?
Bro I loved mine as long as they lasted me but I just got fatsharks and might wanna get rid of mine. Would u be interested in 100 percent working order ev800d's less than a year old for about 50 GBP? Lemme know man

Nice Mod! You could also use the AV input as the video output without needing to remove the original video receiver
yes and i found the av input trace to ground that you can cut
Can u show the wiring?
Made the same on mine, but used a pro58 with Achilles and installed it inside. Works great!
Hi mate, did you notice a big improvement on the range? I still doubt whether to install a Pro58 or a GE-FPV RX5808 Pro...
@@Daniel-ij9mz yes but not worth the effort tbh.
Did you do the pro58 osd mod Mate? Using resistors. And will osd mod works this way?
@@dickysoeliantoro5576 yes, and it worked ok.
Allrighty, let me try. Thanks Mate.
Just needs a power switch for the module or else you have to unplug it everytime. Such a simple mod. Thx
Or just Use the Power of the original resiver, that can switched on and off.
Be aware that some EV800 have battery wire color swapped! black=+3.7V!
Also this will kill the battery leaving the fatshark module plugged when the goggles turns off. Be aware of this too!
good thinking batman
Awesome! Definetely looking forward to the ev800d mod as I have those.
is there any advantage modifying ev800d to have diversity modules considering that ev800d is already a diversity?
Michael Jeffrey Esteban it's too use 2.4 or 1.3 modules
cool mod, i like how you can easily reverse the mod so you could buy the fatshark module and then buy the fatsharks later to spread the costs and still have the ev800 as a ground station. i dont think its worth doing on the ev800d's, the diversity is already very good and it has a dvr, the 800d also has av in which i never got to work at all, . ps i added a inch section to make the goggles 2 inches longer, to reduce eyestrain.
2 inch section

I mean cool but why? And you should have powered up your 5v reg after the power button so its not always powered when plugged in
For better range I guess
So is the fatshark module always on as you soldered it to the battery? Surely you could solder it to ground and power where you solder the video? This would turn fatshark module on when power button is turned on?

Can you post new fatshark module, link is broken, or can you give full module name? Thank you
The reception on my ev800D was better as the reception of my hd3's with furious true d module, so this is a waste of time and money imo.
is there any advantage modifying ev800d to have diversity modules considering that ev800d is already a diversity?
Good work.
Any reason to not power the 5V regulator from the disconnected internal module power pins? This way the module will only be powered when the goggles are turned on instead of all the time the battery is plugged in.
I would also like to know if this could work without any problems! sound really straight forward
Will it be possible to add a switch at the 5v pad on the inbuilt module so we can switch between the external module and the internal one?
I have this makerfire ev800d. I know this is the clone one, and lower quality. Opened it up, it only has had 1 receiver with 2 antenna (antenna diversity i belive some people called it). Removed the receiver, but when i powered pro58 receiver to power pad from the removed receiver. The google keep powering down.

Going to connect to battery socket on the board. And using on off switch to switch the receiver on off. So it won't suck dry the battery when goggle is off.
Is there any way i can power the pro58 without connecting to batt socket directly?
Is DVR in the goggles or in the module? I mean if we replace it as you did will we keep the DVR function?(I have EV800D)
Also are the modules that much better than original rx - worth changing?
awesome, can you testing long range
Hey man, I did this mod, and the DVR mod with it.
You have to keep the battery inside it tho bc of how much juice its pulling with the diversity mod and dvr.
Did the audio for head phones.
And I even did the display for the DVR screen.
Took some thinking about the DVR menu screen.
I had to use 2 of the 5v things you have, and it was really hard to find another spot to use for it, after like 2 hrs of trying I found one.
If you need some pics I'll send them to you
What do u feel like the best advantage to this? Do u get better range?
can emax goggle transporter use this type of modification also?
thank u so much for ur video bro,, hope god bless u. i learn not only about drone, also about principal of electronic
Any chance you could make a jr - module mod for the fs i6?
Thanks for the video! I made this hack and having a problem, video works great but when a turn on the radio I get interferences in the video signal. I tried shieled wires but didn't work. Any idea what to check?
it works without 5v step up tested with eachine pro58

The modules are better all together
Hey, could you do the same as with the ev800diversity ones? Having on the AV the fatshark module?
how can we find out which pins to use on the MCU and on the existing receiver? if we want to do the mod on other goggles. asking for a friend ^^
I'm going to give this a go soon, will it be the same if using a rapidfire module?
What I would do is, remove whole radio module add a edge connector add some pins into the radio module so I can replace it anytime I want
Could you tell us where we should solder the audio pin from receiver in order to have audio too? It would be highly appreciated. Also could we get power from the old receiver in order to power on and off the module with the button? Thank you in advance!
Would like to have EV800 receiver and/or board layout pinout for similar mod. Maybe you have it?
Nice mod but you should do this to the eachine VR D2 Pros
VR D2 doesn't differ much. Do it by yourself and be a hero.
Please!! can you make a video how to do this mod in a VR D2
Now its and ev800d for the same price lol!!! But i see how this is really awesome if you already got the ev800
Why wouldn't you be able to use that original sma connector for say an omni... Would it just not work at all?
The link for the module is now sold out where do you get them from now ?????
Fantastic work, dude! Really nice! 😃
what do you recommend EV800 with your mod or EV800D?,one could get EV800, Pro 58 RX and DVR or EV800D for the same price
I just received the ev800d and ev800 4 hours before releasing this video. I have not even opened the ev800d yet so I can not answer your question just yet.
So I'm gonna have to wait for your next video,so be it.But try to remember my comment and give your thoughts on it.Some of the people wanted to know
I had both ,EV800D is better option ,I did MOD my EV800 and installed a DVR .Both are very good value and excellent receivers ,but the D has the edge for DVR and diversity.

Leave the internal battery in place and just use the power cable provided and route the wire to lipo on the rear of the strap.
@@pablofpv do you use 2s Lipo 1500 mah or 1s as extern battery ?
1 question, EV800 have AV Input Port on the right side, so why dont you connect the Realacc RX5808 to the port?
Amazing you are good very well done that was one of the best mood`s so cool got to show JJRotogeek that
just like in the EV800D, can you not interchange between the Fatshark module and onboard?
Wow the board is very Different to the EV800D. What is your opinion about using the AV input for the Mod in the EV800D ?
I'm new to fpv. What's the point of adding the fatshark module to these goggles? What does it add?
Flexibility , Better coverage, future proof and more.
Again..... Yeah... Great mod... :-)
What do you think about AKK Diversity module? Is it good and will be better than this that you used?
Hey I'm using 2s and 3s to power my goggles. What I still need the power converter that your soldering in?
After this upgrade what would the Max range be? Can it go 1 mile?
Well definitely not for 50$ just the goggles maybe I was just about to go buy the module but its like 57$ by its self unfortunately but still a great video and still trying to do this to my goggles so I can use a patch and omni
Is it possible to connect the step-up converter after the "power button"?
Wow, That’s a feature rich OSD from your quad. What are you using to display all that?
The ESC testing setup
What do you think, what is better, buying Eachine EV800D goggles or EV800 and external diversity module?
Ev800d, much nicer because everything is inside the goggles
Please help iv looked everywhere and can't figure out if it's possible to replace that rpsma on ev800 with an sma plug instead. Rpsma is hard to find in all varieties
juste get an adapter and use sma antennas
Just did this an omg 😮 it’s epic
Hey did you do the audio for this yet???? Was wondering. I know you dont like to do it bc you dont use it hahah, but be a brother and do the audio for me since I hot these goggles bc of you haha...... love you man, I'm a pain in the ass I know
and the battery has the same duration?
Will this mod work on the Eachine VR007 Pro Goggles ...joe
Can a similar mod be done for FatShark Recon V3?
just add about $40 more to that then the price for just the goggles will be right, still a good informative video though
hey nice vid is it possible to connect the tyro 79 with the ev800 without the diversity module ??????????
Of course it is
Can I do this and not kill the onboard system
Do you think it can be possible with EV 500 ?
nice mod
please try and cover the vr d2 pros too
Yes they are on the way.

Can we do this on recon v3s?
can install in fatshark attitude v1?
cmon man wht about the vr d2 pros
My ev800 has av in.. Can i use that for adding the fatshark module?
I did mod video for the ev800

Oh, you didn't even add quadversity 😕
lol shut up
I need this
quick question, EV800 with mod or EV800D?
pratap ev800
This video is ev800 the ev800d will be upcoming within 2 days
yeah I know,what do you recommend EV800 with your mod or EV800D?,one could get EV800, Pro 58 RX and DVR or EV800D for the same price
Possible to get audio after the mod? Thanks.
Yes
But you need to route the audio from module to audio port
@@DroneMesh So why didn't you use the 5v from the internal receiver?
without 5v step up dont work ?
It works :)
Would laforge work the same?
Yes any module
