The plastic build feels solid, and the brass metal tripod threading (PNBE has conveniently put one on all four edges) appears very solidly affixed. If the community shows interest in this, we’ll push ahead with other products.” Impressions “It’s our first release and we are selling it on a not-for-profit basis. This is also the first product that PNBE has produced, and it’s clearly part of its vision that videographers, photographers – and drone pilots – have access to an affordable solution. We take a look at the PNBE ultra-bright monitor… Amazing for $199 US “Drone work is nearly always done outdoors in daylight, where it’s a must to have a high brightness unit.” “We think this is a nice affordable solution,” Aitor Elorga tells us. DroneDJ does not have an affiliate relationship with PNBE we simply think this is a good value that might appeal to some pilots. They are basically, as a non-profit, selling these at cost. Their high-nit monitors start at about $199 US – which is, well, super inexpensive for what it provides. The non-profit believes this product could be great for drone pilots – and especially at this price. Again, it’s great to have something you can clearly see while shooting outdoors. Of course, if you happen to shoot videos with a handheld gimbal like the new Ronin S2 and Ronin SC2, then you can also mount this and use it as your shooting monitor. You’ll want to mount the monitor on a tripod, but few of us are really walking around while carrying out a flight.

Then you simply take a cable from that and plug it into the monitor, which operators on direct DC or else rechargeable NP-F series batteries. Others, like the Phantom 4 series, allow you to add an HDMI out adaptor that screws onto the back of your existing controller ( $99 from DJI). Some products feature an HDMI out in the controller. With HDMI in, it’s a breeze – depending on the controller you have.

Sounds great, but it doesn’t have an Android operating system. That last one is theoretically bright enough that you could fly your drone with ease on the brightest day surrounded by snow.
And the brightness? Depends on what you select, but there are models rated at 2,000, 2,500, and even 3,000 nits. It makes 4K-capable monitors ranging from 5″ to 7″ diagonally. And, as part of this vision, PNBE has started to manufacture super-bright, made-in-Spain LED displays. Its vision is to provide quality photographic and video products to creators at cost.
The Spanish SolutionĪ company called PNBE is a non-profit organization based in Spain. The CrystalSky monitors are ultra-bright, but not ultra-inexpensiveīut what if you were willing to put up with a bit of inconvenience to save money? That’s where this solution comes in.

The Android-based devices allow you to download the latest software and run it the same way as you do on a phone or tablet. Of course, there’s a reason why people buy the DJI CrystalSky monitors. Are you using your phone as a monitor? Is it bright enough?īut at $699 US for the 7.85″ high brightness monitor, it’s not a solution for everyone. The CrystalSky High Brightness monitor pumps out 1,000 candelas per square meter, while the Ultra Brightness version spits out 2,000 cd/m². But a little brighter isn’t what you want on a sunny day while flying a drone. That seems to be about average, though some phones and tablets are a little brighter. The phone you’re carrying? Probably 400 or maybe 500 nits. More candelas per square meter = more brightness = higher nits. And here, one nit = one candela = the amount of light one candle spreads over one square meter. What we are interested in is the use of the word as it pertains to brightness. We’re not interested in those – quite the opposite. Look this up on an online dictionary and you’re likely to come up with a definition like this: “The egg of a parasitic insect, such as a louse or flea.” So let’s look at a more affordable solution. But it was also above my budget – something I’m sure many pilots out there might appreciate. I remember the first time I saw a CrystalSky display outdoors: It was amazing. It’s just so bright on a clear day that it can be impossible to see all the data your phone is displaying while in flight. Unfortunately, most phones and tablets have not been designed to compete with the sun. A bright day when you’re trying to fly your drone.
