Was sitting around bored today and jumped on my pc cause i was wanting to finish making a PVS-31 Monocular but the normal size FMA tubes have very little room to work with on a custom battery compartment. So this is the tube i ended up creating on Onshape, the larger threaded end is 37mm so the Infra-V2 large 32x31mm AI box can fit inside with 0 issues and the rear is 29mm for the 12.5x eyepiece. Also the 4mm holes in the side of the upper tube is for a pvs18 style battery compartment. Anyways I just wanted to get some opinions on its looks!

Just wanted to post how much it would cost to build a diy thermal using the CV640-9 FPV Camera, the only thing I left out is 28ga wiring. $600 dollars is hell of a better deal than spending 2k on a commercial 640 monocular.

Just wanted to show how far along I've gotten yesterday with the DIY 3D printed PVS-18 with custom 16340/CR123 3.7V battery compartment (1.5v will not work) I just got to make some minor adjustments to the battery compartment! This will mount to a PVS-14 J-Arm!!! Once I'm satisfied with the results I'll be making a parts-list with links to items used and be uploading a how to video on YouTube. My plans are to used the Caddx Infra-V2 for its low-light performance and a 0.40 Flcos Display I'm sure you could substitute another fpv camera of your choice and Oled display (you would need to create & 3d print your own oled display mount/holder). You would just need to replace the substitute camera holder to 20mm and make sure it will except M16 lens not M12. I'm open to any suggestions!!!

I decided to go ahead and create a bridge for the monocular I made. It's not the best looking binocular, its actually sorta ugly and needs some tweaking done, but it will get the job done. I could change the bridge from circular to a rectangular type shape? None of the internal hardware is installed yet just cameras and magnifying eyepiece's. I planning on runnning Infra-V2/256-Thermal combo w/ dual 0.4 Flcos displays. This would definitely benefit using two oled displays over flcos, you can look at oles displays at different angles and flcos have to be perfectly aligned with pupils or it will create a blurring effect similar to a lcd tv.

Saturday project completed Caddx Infra V2, Flcos 0.4 1280x960 Display and 12.5x Eyepiece Magnifier. Thinking of maybe making a bridge to run this as a goggle/binocular setup! Could do the Infra V2 right eye and 256 Thermal left eye... Files for Mono on Makerworld listed as Project-X TG-16

Next Saturdays project will be a digital version of the PVS-14 Possible the Caddx Gazer for some color night vision...

Just a project I worked on over the weekend! The housing is suppose to be a Lancer Pvs-18 off Amazon but when it arrived it was inside a FMA PVS-18 box. I removed the fake battery compartment/mount and cut a square hole inside the tube and the compartment. Inside the compartment is a Caddx Infra V2 Ai box, 13500 Lithium, Power-Button and USB-C female all connected to a BCU. Inside the tube is a FLCOS 0.4 display/CVBS board, Caddx Infra sensor that has a M16 0.9 1/1.8 8mm lens that should give it around a 47FOV. The eyepiece is just a cheap 30mm Plano Convex lens till my 12.5x eyepiece arrives (18x eyepiece off Aliexpress that's used in the digital pvs-31 build won't work with the flcos display only oled displays)

Update: received the FMA PVS-18 metal/nylon version it came with a decent Plano Convex lens. I will be trying to transfer the Infra v2 & 0.4 display over to this housing, it is a lot better quality then the all plastic Lancer housing. By the looks of it this will be a more difficult job than the plastic version. I plan on pulling a all nighter Saturday so rather I succeed or fail I'll post update! Also forgot that I got PVS-15 off Amazon supposed to be delivered today, ill probably put 2 Fatshark Aura(IMX662 Sensor) in those.

Okay FMA pvs18 metal is a bust, tube is only 26mm wide. I'd have to buy a extra long ribbon to install the the display in the tube and cvbs board in battery compartment. Also Infra v2, Fatshark aura, Ratel pro and 256 thermal wont fit in tube either. May have to settle with foxeer micro cat 4 or my Runcam Phoenix 2 spv5.

Got these off eBay! If you was thinking of buying these I'd buy them off Vietactical instead of ebay. The ones on Vie have better IMX385 Sensor in Gen 4 and higher. Picture two is of the specs because there is zero information about the Aegis-31. You could definitely build these cheaper and use better sensors and high resolution screens.
