I have crashed just as hard with Micro Eagle V2's that didnt survive like the Pheonix 2 has...Recently had a bad crash to concrete from about 80ft, shattered my Unify pro race VTX, cracked my FC, and ripped the screws from the sensor board out of the lens mount in the Pheonix 2 (frame is plastic) BUT I glued it back to gether and it still works! I cant say that about my dead perfectly connected Micro Eagle...The image is nicer by a good margin and is noticeable in FS HDO2, but not such a difference with older LCD goggles. using HDO2 and Pheonix 2 is closer to HD than you might realize. you can see scraggle better than with other cameras, and have the same low light capability as Micro Eagle...and the Lens mount is the same if you want a Micro Eagle lens, because the sensor is the same size. for the Image Quality this little FPV camera is a great price over the Micro Eagle as well, nearly half price...which is always welcome!
