Does anyone know if thise diversity receiver is compatible with Dominators?

[FPVSteve]

I have original Dominator goggles (with the eye cups) ... I was wondering if anyone knew if this module
https://www.unmannedtechshop.co.uk/product/pro58-rx-diversity-receiver-for-fatshark-goggles/
was compatible in the receiver slot? I currently use a Nextwave -90dbi receiver module but I was wanting to upgrade it to a diversity module so I can run a Menace patch as well as the omni.

Thanks!

I'd be very interested in a review of this if you get one, see what footage it gives you, for the price anything above disappointing will make it fantastic value for money.

Not from me but Joshua Bardwell  recommended it from his list of budget modules. He said as follows :

When I first saw this module, I assumed it must be garbage. It's HALF the price of the Realacc RX5808. But I've been using it for a few weeks now and I'm really impressed. The build quality is slightly worse than the Realacc (especially the screen) but put a good cover on it and you won't notice the difference.

What makes this module so special is that it's got a faster, more capable processor than most others. When you combine it with the Achilles Pro firmware, it unlocks features like Ultra-Search and RF Lap Timer.

So it's cheaper and it has more features than the competition. What's the catch?

The catch is, it doesn't have a USB port to let you easily install the Achilles Pro firmware. You need a special adapter, and the electronics skills to hook it up to the module. If you're looking for a budget module, and you're not scared of getting your hands a little dirty, the Eachine Pro58 is the one you'll buy.

I'm using that receiver on my Dominator 2's  and it's been great. 

I did the wiring mod to flash the Achilles firmware which was pretty easy. I followed a vid on youtube.   
Performance has been good.  The Achilles software has some cool features... the ultra scan will get the frequency spot on  and there's the ability to find your model with a directional antenna..... it beeps faster when you're pointing the antenna in the direction of the model.  I've used it a couple of times and it's found the plane when it wasn't where I thought it was ( vtx has to still be working of course)  .

I got mine from Banggood with the 3d printed case they also sell.  The case was shite and I posted a vid of the module falling out of the googles mid flight!   I downloaded a different case that's a perfect fit from Thingiverse and printed it on an sla printer at work and it's a spot on tight fit.



if you want a laugh at my module fail.....

Hmmmm that's encouraging, I might give this a dabble myself :)

A matching white cover would be nice, I can only find translucent
