Product Compatibility
The Attitude has been designed to adhere to established video standards and is compatible with any product also adhering to accepted video standards. Due to the high number of different manufacturers and variation in quality, it’s impossible to for us to have tested with every product combination and some troubleshooting may be required if mix/matching components. The Attitude Version 5 has been thoroughly tested with both the included receivers and with ImmersionRC products.IMPORTANT PRODUCT WARNING!Do not leave the headset exposed to direct sunlight. Sunlight will magnify through the optics and can burn holes in the OLED color filter. This will then appear as white open areas. This will not be covered by warranty. Keep goggles in their protective case when not in use.

Large capacity pretty much lets you fly all day. It seats securely in the headset strap pocket. The soft silicone battery cable extends out of the top of the pack to avoid contact with head strap. Barrel connector cable features high strand count wire for flexibility and long life. Wire stress is minimized by the additional rubber gasket around the cable exit.

- For best performance, select a channel that has the least amount of interference. While the transmitter is turned OFF, turn on the video headset and look at the screen as you check each channel. Clear channels will have a consistent static background. Channels with interference will have horizontal static lines.
- Always perform a range test before flying. This includes AV and RC controls. Some RC receivers can be affected by the proximity of other electronic devices particularly the AV TX.
- Try to space out your components as much as possible to avoid interference to your RC control range (keep stuff away from RX)
- Until experienced, practice flying in a familiar area to avoid becoming disorientated.
- Due to antenna characteristics, there is a “null” in line with antenna direction. You may experience excessive video breakup when flying overhead
- 5.8GHz signal strength drops off very fast stay safely within solid AV range.
- For maximum distance it is very important that a clear line of sight exists between the transmitter and the video headset. 2 of the worst causes of interference are human bodies and reinforced concrete.
- Place your TX antenna in open area in a vertical orientation
- Multipathing (reflections off buildings/ tall objects) causes signal cancellation and result in broken video. Fly in open areas away from buildings or other tall structures (i.e. barns, hills).
- The headset may become warm to touch during use particularly in the top center region. This is normal. If you are unsure, run the headset for 30 minutes before flying to ensure normal operation.
- Even if you don’t require any license to operate this device, you are still legally responsible for operating in a responsible manner.
