HS1177 FPV Camera Setup

How to setup the HS1177 FPV camera from Sony or Foxeer. Tuning cable alteration, camera focus and ideal settings for outdoor FPV use. The camera in this video is the Foxeer version (XAT600M IR Block) but the same principles apply to the Sony version.

I have found these settings provide improved colour saturation in outdoor conditions and the camera transitions better between shade and full daylight, as well as working better in low light conditions around dawn and dusk.

Make sure you have a sunny day to do the "AWC - Set" process.

I'm not a camera expert by any means - I just came across some commonly used settings and made some minor personal tweaks.

This helped me immensely to setup my Foxeer HS1177. I can't wait to actually fly with it now

Hello, I just purchased 1 of these cameras and the bloody thing came with no instructions and the on screen display was in Chinese so as you can imagine I had no bloody chance but now I have watched your video I know where the language selection is and what the settings are for so a big thank you. Cheers mate

great info, thanks, Im new to this, and find it a bit confusing, when the equipment does NOT come with any detailed instructions. Thanks very much for your video

You can use a fatshark battery to power the camera. Has the right connector for the eu cable. Thanks for the video!

Awesome guide!!! Thanks a lot, I'm going to use those setting

Will try these settings out. If you go into the special menu you can add a camera name that is always displayed on the osd. I've set mine to "puddles" as that's my nickname lol. It makes it more convenient for races to make sure your own the correct Chanel and make sure your looking at your video feed

[davidkelly]

The comments say it all - I will definitely be trying your settings in my HS1177s thanks. Thumbs up and sub from me.

I hear they are going to dc the hs1177 and come out with something new, will be interesting to see what the programmer looks like. At 1:12 you show the power connector which I know has to be a male barrel connector of the 1.25mm size. Where the hell did you get one from? Google brings up nothing. I guess you could cut off the barrel and expose the 2 wires for a mod. 2.1 barrel seems to be a more standard size, why don't the Chinese use standard stuff

I wonder if all cameras are different, I tried these settings in mine and the color is way out of whack, Last vid I uploaded has footage.

[deepimpactioFPV]

Do you have some sample DVR footage outdoors in both light and dark conditions (preferably dynamic) to see how it looks in flight?

[Airmonus]

I actually have a second battery for my FatShark goggles which have the same power supply connector as the cable. What does the AWC - Set process do for you? I always just set the DWDR on and set the contrast down and seems to be fine for me.

awesome guide. BTW, your picture quality is very high. Mine isn't too far from a CMOS camera. And that's on all HS1177 camera ordered from different locations. Hmm.... =\ Could be that because of sunny day you had at that moment?
