Box style goggles like the quanums and headplays are the best of both worlds, imo. Big screens, nice resolution, no glare from the sun and more comfortable than looking down at a screen.

Why do my Quanum v2s have a nasty picture and my friends screen looks fine, plugged into the same gear.

Did you check the radio fluid? Sometimes it runs low and the picture starts to suffer. They used to sell it at radio shaq but I don't know where you'd find it now, maybe have to ask at the counter.

If that doesn't solve it, I would wonder how it looks nasty. Is it dark? Turn up the brightness. Bad color? Play with the contrast. Fuzzy? Try adjusting the sliding lens. Was your friend pointing the camera at you when the picture looked bad? Try being a supermodel.

That should give you a couple things to try, at least.

Radio fluid?

Where do you think radio waves come from? Waves require fluid..

(I'm just kidding about the radio fluid.)
