Can I use fatsharks without a module?

[OPO]

Hi guys!

I was wondering if I could use a fatshark without a module solely for a simulator?

I wanted to get the Aomway Commander Goggles V1 but I read online it's better to get the fatsharks, I however don't have the funds at this moment to also get the modules. I got told not to use the Aomway goggles without the antennas hooked up so I was wondering if I could use a Fatshark Dominator V3 without the module in it.


Thank you time!

If you are using it for a simulator then you should be fine. The video source into the goggles will be different for a simulator then for actually receiving signals.

So I should not worry about something burning out? Due to me not having a module plugged in?

You should be fine. The goggles just provide 5v to the module and then receive the audio/video signals from the receiver. When you use another video source (HDMI/AV) you will switch off power to the RX. It's not like a video transmitter where you can not turn it on without the antennas missing.

You should also note that to connect to your computer/TV the options are HDMI and AV cables (red, yellow, white). So make sure you can support those cables or have an adapter to be able to support them.

Thank you for your reply! I will order my goggles soon so I can start simming
