Compatible with Analog Video Transmission

The DJI Digital FPV System can be used with analog image transmission via a third-party receiver, allowing users to switch between AV and digital video transmissions.

All the drone footage I've seen has been analog, and I guess it's possible on the FPV.

Huh TIL. Usually DJI locks you in pretty hard.

Either way the mavic certainly ain't working off of analog.

I highly doubt the mavics used in Ukraine still run the stock firmware

That takes more than firmware, and I don't know how much thats worth it compared to just using existing fpv hardware.

That was about the lock in part. Most of the mavic footage I’ve seen seems to be digital at least, though I recall something about them changing the RF frequencies constantly to avoid jamming.
