Dear Addy. I changed the modules again and more carefully with the connections of the small cables of the module, I restarted the toys and everything worked perfectly like your tutorial. I am happy to have succeeded and to save your precious time. I have no idea why it happened wrong. I only did it again for you to have the conviction that everything with you happened without even the control asking for an upgrade. The curious thing for me was the fact that on the DJI website sell this module in P4P accessories. A warm hug and thank you for everything. Lets Fly !!!!
Excellent information. I've been researching the possibilities of using phone/tablet and Goggles with the Phantom 4 for months. You cannot get the flight records from the goggles alone, you have to have the app running. This video answered all the questions the forums didn't. Thank you.
You are welcome. this is a dated video 2017 but there is still a lot of DJI drones out there that use Lightbridge transmission and require cables. Glad information helped... Sorry for the poor edit.. I was still new to putting videos together then.
@@AddyOverbeeke Good afternoon. I appreciate it's a 3 year old video, but even after all this time, the question of extracting the flight data from the DJI Goggles is still an issue. Not many tablets have HDMI capabilities like the K1, which is no longer produced. Can I just ask 1 question please. If you use a dual USB splitter from the controller and connect one end to the goggles and the other to a phone/tablet, do you get a live view through the Goggles and be able to use the app on the phone? Well done again, still not much around on the internet answering the issue..
@@gps-gps To be honest, I do not own a dual splitter USB cable and never tried. Concept is interesting but not sure of power is adequate for two devices. Would take some testing. I mostly use the Goggles now, which I have two sets, the regular white ones and the FPV version black ones with my DJI Mavic drones that use wireless Ocusync. I still fly the Phantom 4 and 4 Pro.... In September I finally get the Skydio 2 which I ordered last Nov. 2019....... Love the hobby and business.... How are you using the Goggles, do you have a split USB cable that you would test/try?
@@AddyOverbeeke Hello again. I am awaiting delivery of the RE Goggles, here in the uk they are like gold, everywhere sold out. I will try the splitter method I suggested and let you know. Regards.
@@gps-gps I have the RE version as well. I was gifted them from Kelly Shores at YT Channel "Ready Set Drone" for being subscriber of the month..... crazy nice gift..... they have the advantage of being also used for analog FPV goggles and comes with the antenna. Ready Set Drone is great source of information for FPV reviews and DJI drones. So what version of the P4p do you have ? V1 or V2?
Thank you, Raymond, that is why I made the video, to share what I learned in the setup for the hardware I had. There will be others that may have different setup experience depending on the hardware they have, but I think I covered the basics. Check out my other Goggles video about head tracking experience along with other videos I have made for this hobby I enjoy so much. Unfortunately, winter is upon us where I live and for the times I have the opportunity to fly, the chances are actually getting to go flying are reduced because of wind and cold temperatures. on another note, the Goggles actually work best for me when not too hot because they are a sweating machine in the hot weather. Happy Holidays
Thank you for kind words and subscribing, check out some of my other videos. I have some new videos coming out soon, it has been a windy winter and difficult to fly on weekends, but tomorrow looks promising.
Very informative! I wanted to use my iPad and the goggles in conjunction with the P4p obsidian, and just wanted a live video feed without the telemetry , for a true immersive experience. This is the only video I found on RUclips that showed me exactly what I needed to do for that. Thanks!
Hi Ryan, Thanks for subscribing and kind words. Happy I was able to help. I am getting ready to post more videos on a regular basis now that some big work projects and weather allows for that. In the meantime, check out some of my other videos. Let me know if you have questions and happy flying your obsidian P4p. Goggles are pretty amazing although It makes flying a little more difficult having to have someone be a spotter when using them. Most of my flying is solo.
Addy Overbeeke I will definitely check them out. I do some solo flying but I find its much more fun to have another droner and/or observer with me. Happy flying, and thanks again for the info!
Many thanks Addy, I talked about enabling the RC, but my control is the original, and I did not have HDMI outputs, I have now bought the output for my RC and I will switch to get a simutaneous HDMI video output. A good day to you, and once again thank you very much, you helped me a lot.
Thank Brian, It was a warm humid day when I did the video and I was tired from traveling. But I wanted to try and get the video done in time for the 100th subscriber. It is not much to most RUclipsrs, but to me, it is a high number as the guy that is not popular or has many friends in my life. So it is interesting that 100 people would find me interesting enough to look at my channel. I am getting a big kick out of that... :)
I have just added that module to my p4, it was very expensive to order as GJI had stopped selling them here. I had a lot of difficulty getting the HDMI adapter as they are not common in the UK, getting the goggles to be a clear screen was a case of trying all the buttons and controls to get it. I want it to give others a flight and yet see to able to control it myself. make your victim sit down as you move forward they tend to fall over otherwise.
Hi Graham. So you are able to connect to the googles and everything is working well? My Neighbor had a similar vertigo issue until hos brain got used to and started excepting the visual stimulation. SO I had him sit in a chair while using until he was okay with the new sensation. See minute mark 3:33 for video ruclips.net/video/3l3HfNhC2Js/видео.html. Also, I purchased focus-fixers lenses because glasses were a pain to deal with. I saw one of Peter Holmer's video (who is a great UK youtube influencer). ruclips.net/video/HMAkOK44wi8/видео.html www.focus-fixers.com/
Great video, exactly the review i was looking for while wating for my Goggles delivery. I have the exact same set up as you, P4P with HDMI port and an Nvidia Shield K1 with the HDMI port, so i needed to understand what my options are and what cables i may need to get. Thanks !! Cheers !!
One question: So the only thing you were using in the video that is not included in the DJI Goggles kit is the "Full HDMI to Mini HDMI adapter" is that correct ? Is the cable you get included "Full HDMI to Mini HDMI" which you can not really use for anything (with the P4P anyway) without the adapter ? Typical DJI i guess.. Cheers !!
Jon BJ . Correct, only part you need is adapter female hdmi to male hdmi mini. Thanks for watching and commenting, I have a new vid on goggle usage coming out soon.
Addy Overbeeke Hi again, One more question if it's alright: Have you noticed any affects on the transmission/range/signal strength for the different liveview options, ie do you loose range when using the HD/1080p mode vs the lower resolution modes. Cheers
Eureka!!, if you can not connect HDMI module to DJI Goggles, kindly set the resolution of your DJI Goggles to 720 p. If it did not work, reset the camera settings of your P4P, using your DJI Go app. Good luck.
Hi Addy Bill back again. Its been 5 months since I flew!!! I missed it b/c of the cold! But now I'm back. Going to NH next week hope to get some real nice videos. Bill
Good to hear Bill. Check for updates in firmware and that GO4 App is current. Have fun and enjoy New Hampshire. I have been there many times skiing in winter and hiking and camping in summer. I love the Mt Washington area but there are a lot of flight restrictions because of all the National Parks in NH, so lots of places you can not fly.

Well done on reaching your first 100 - many more to come!!!! Great demo on the DJI Googles - wish I had the money - they look fun. Many thanks for sharing :)
Thank you for commenting and subbing to my channel. Check out the rest of videos. I should have more Goggle videos coming out soon. Still editing a fishing trip for two weeks ago, and soon afterward the Goggle video I made. I checked out your channel, very nice. I also sub'd your channel and look forward to seeing your videos as well Happy droning.
Thank you Keith, I started just to share drone videos I made for my family and it's nice others share in viewing my channel. I have no goal or expectations to be a big RUclips channel as it's just a hobby. It will be fun flying with the goggles, it is a very immersive experience as if you were seeing through the eyes of a bird flying around or maybe the cockpit of an aircraft. Thanks for commenting.
Thanks Karen, video is a little dated now that newer models have ocusync making for wireless connections. But I still fly the Phantom 4 Pro V1 which is Lightbridge transmission and still very excellent. No appreciable performance difference to upgrade a V1 to V2 .
Thank you Addy, I too have upgraded my Drone and Goggles to the RV version however your video at the time gave me a great insight in connection possibility’s and especially the K1 shield tablet that I use all the time. Take care and stay safe. Karen x. ..
well done on 100 you are the first one to show how to connect to the DJI goggles. i have a few questions 1 can i connect both HDMI cable and the micro cable at the same time. 2 can you only use the micro lead for the camera head tracking and will the Phantom 4 also do drone tracking ie fly by moving your head. 3 There are so many blogs out there saying the Phantom 4 will not do some of the things like tripod mode and others.can you please confirm what the Phantom 4 can do with the DJI goggles. Many Thanks from the UK.
The adapter that you have plugged to the controler the one you say they should supply you wouldnt believe how much trouble Ive had finding one any help you could give me would be greatly appriciated.
Hi addy, received my HDMI module today from Amazon. Now it connects perfectly with the tablet as well as the dji goggles. It even shows the option of simultaneous output to HDMI and app. If I may request you to kindly mention in your review options that the third option is only viable if you have a remote with a HDMI module installed. Thank you once again.
Hi, the third option is for a tablet that has HDMI output and it does not matter then it RC has the HDMI module installed or not installed. In the third option, only the USB is being used from module to tablet and then tablet to goggles. Hope that makes it more clear. Thanks for commenting and watching the video.DJI is moving away from wire connections as it complicates matters. The new Phantom 4 Pro V.2, the Mavic series included Mavic pro, Mavic 2 pro and Mavic 2 Zoom all are using Ocusync transmission which is all wifi based. But I will keep my P4p V.1 for now as the wires connections work for me.
@@AddyOverbeeke hi Addy, I got your point the first time. I hope you try connecting your HDMI tablet to a RC that does not have a HDMI module installed. Would like to see if you can get the same result because I tried and it failed.
Hi Aarun, Yes, I have done that many times before. My Phantom 4 RC does not have the HDMI Module, only my Phantom 4 pro. The HDMI out from the tablet is totally independent of the RC controller. If I were to connect my Tablet containing HDMI out port to a TV (no drone or RC involvement, only tablet, and TV), I get an HDMI signal from Tablet to TV through HDMI cable. The same is true about HDMI from Tablet to Goggles. As a matter of fact, you can use the goggles to view HDMI from any device (Play Station PS4 for example) to view the video. The same is true from Tablet to Goggles. Noting that the HDMI does not provide control on the touchpad of the Goggles, only the USB connection allows this. Hope that finally helps. sorry if I am not expaining in a way that is easier for you to understand. Maybe a language translation issue? I travel a lot for work and often see how English does not translate well to other languages. But happy to try to help. Are you selecting HDMI in the Goggles app to view HDMI? maybe that is the reason? Try using goggles alone with any HDMI output device to see if you are configured correctly.
Howdy... I enjoyed your hookup demonstrations with the various devices. Nice coverage and the information you shared was helpful. Did you ever make a video flying with the P4P, tablet, and HDMI connection from tablet to goggles?
It is very difficult to show the goggles via video to an audience because you are wearing the goggles and just filming me wearing them is boring to look at. However, with a little creative filming and editiing with my limited knowledge of how to make such a film, I made a video about one of the Goggle's feature showing headtracking option for goggles. Checkout that video at this link. ruclips.net/video/3l3HfNhC2Js/видео.html Thanks for commenting, check out the rest of my channel.
Thank you for compliment. I should have another video out in the next few weeks on Head tracking and other cool features. But I got to tell you, the experience of the video is amazing, so immersive an experience. Just watching a movie is amazing, drone flying is more amazing
The quick answer is: "DJI HDMI Output Module Part 54" for Phantom 3 Pro and 4, 4 Advanced and 4 Pro V1 and can be sourced with a quick search on the internet. Amazon, Ebay, etc.... I am making the assumption that you have a DJI Phantom 3 Pro, 4, 4 Advance, or 4 Pro version 1 (V1) and not V2. V1 uses Lightbridge transceiver technology which would require the HDMI DJI goggles connection if you are wanting to simultaneously use cell phone or tablet with DJI Go4 app. As explained in my video prior to V2 sales. Noting that: DJI goggle USB connection to the RC controller can be done on any of the drones but you would be using the app on goggles and not on cell phone or tablet to control the drone, sacrificing the connection solely for the goggle connection. V2 uses Ocusync transceiver technology and can communicate wirelessly with the dji goggles....
You are welcome. This is an older video now and I have learned a lot about the video editing process. I happy that the information was useful to you. Thanks for stopping by and commenting. I do have another video for the goggles explaining Head-Tracking feature. Please check out some of my later videos.
Addy Overbeeke Hi thanks for that, i am just investigate for coming purchase. Was really close to skip that before your video. But i will get back to you later if i've problem with that. :)
okay, What I did not mention, because its is required of all DJI products and is the same, once you get the Goggles, you have to register and update the Firmware on the DJI website. very easy ..... Good luck with the purchase. Have fun....
Artem Pogulyayko I do not notice any more latency with tablet out hdmi than that of the hdmi or usb connection from RC controller . I am testing still and will follow up with video soon. So far I am really pleased with either set up especially now I solved iPad problem fo missing video feed that had nothing to do with the goggles.
Hi Roland, because of my experiences with DJI updates and problems that I have had I the past, I now follow a strict protocol regardless of App version and believe I have the latest firmware. I basically delete the DJI GO 4 App and reinstall new, then download DJI Assistant and refresh/update Firmware on controller and RC. Then shutdown and reboot everything. For the Goggles, I do the same, there is a DJI Assistant for the Goggles and can be found at: www.dji.com/dji-goggles/info#downloads I had no problems connecting, I have a new video coming out soon on P4P and "Head Tracking" with the goggles. these things are amazing. I use to be a FatShark fan, but the dji goggles are a big leap in technology. After you try all the things I mention, let me know how you made out. BUt be very specific of your issue and the what your setup is. Good luck.
You are welcome. Appreciate the kind comment. I have more coming, little low right now for Winter weather. Check out some of my other videos, Have a great day.
I do have a scenario that I'm looking for a solution to...I have the DJI goggles AND a P4 pro. I'm wondering how I could fly and monitor a waypoint mission while another person is wearing the goggles and has gimbal control...is that even possible with this setup?
Hi Matt, Using the P4 pro I do not think that is possible. The set-up options are USB with Goggles and having controls using the Goggle's touchpad or HDMI where the Goggles is only getting video feed and no controls while the pilot gets full control using RC controller and Go 4 App on a tablet or cell phone. On other platforms like the DJI Inspire series, Dual RC Controllers and Goggles could perform the scenario you describe. For the Scenario you explain, the Goggles wearing person could call out to the pilot to pan down or up for the gimbal position as the pilot watches the progress of the waypoint mission? that seems like that would work after a couple of minutes practice co-piloting together.
Hi Andy - Great Vid. Since you had some time since you did this vid would you still go with the HDMI set up or the Shield setup. The reason I ask is with the shield setup you can turn on and off the telemetry. Also, It seems like there are a lot more features on the Go 4 app then in the googles. Such as clearing the video cache.
I like the Nvidia K1 Shield setup, I do not like to take my hands off the RC controller to use the App on the Goggles touchpad. The head tracking that you can do with USB connection is great but Its something you would use at lower altitudes where is mostly how I shot my videos. On the rare occasion, I approach the 400 AGL, but not much detail at that height. I like the mid- 100s and less to show features not seen at more of a distance. Trees and terrain give me personally more security to have flight controls at hand (RC) and not the less exact controls of the head tracking technology. But that's my take, others might have more confidence, I operate more by minimizing risk. I am hoping the next Phantom series model will employ the same 3D mapping as the Skydio R1and then I would feel more confident in head tracking technology . Check out this new drone technolgy ruclips.net/video/scpcG5Re0-M/видео.html
I have no experience doing that and maybe someone else could provide tested results on DJI's forums, but it is a valid question. My guess is, having two fully separate DJI Go4 & Goggle apps running at the same time being used to Input Goggles's touchpad and head tracking with a tablet (Android or Apple running apps), maybe?....... I would only trust if tested. Someone must have done this before?????
Hello, i have DJI GOGGLES RACING EDITION i try to link to my phatom Phantom 4 Pro+ V2.0 with a remote control with built in screen i tried to conecte it from everywere following the steps and only comes to link it to MAVIC and doesn't show up Phantom DJI GOGGLES RACING , please help me with this.
Try linking the Goggles to the P4P V2 per this DJI video: ruclips.net/video/ovWoMmre2nA/видео.html If that does not work, the DJI forum sites is good resource site to post questions. More nowledgable people will be able to help. I do not feel qualified to provide answer to your question because you are operating new P4p+ V2 which uses Ocusync 2 and also the RE version of the Goggles. Should be easy with little research to get an answer, all part of learning and fun for this hobby or business.
Yes, if you want both the Tablet and Goggles to operate at same time, the connection is limited to using both the USB and HDMI (if you have the HDMI Module on the RC) unless you have the Nvidia K1 Shield tablet or the new expensive DJI Crystalsky display. THe goggles use with the Mavic Pro is easy because one can use the USB connection to a cell phone or small tablet , but the Goggles connect wirelessly using DJI's OcuSynce . THanks for watching and commenting, EnJoy the goggles, they are interesting option to looking at a tablet screen.
trying to connect my googles to phantom 4 and cant get to the hdmi setting in the googles do i have to link the googles to the copter? im using the usb cable straight to the controller to the googles. do i have to activate the googles first please help in steps thanks
Just bought the dji goggles for my p4 and I was curious on the the connect options. This vid breaks it down very nice, well done and I subd! Thanks Also was wondering is there actually any advantage to installing the hdmi module vs using the usb?
USB connection for Phantom 4 series is only option if you want to fly and operate the features of the DJI Go APP (goggles version) when wearing the Goggles using the built-in touchpad on the Goggles. HDMI is only a camera view on the drone and you can not control the Go App from the Goggles. If you want to share the Goggles and fly the drone using a tablet, HDMI to goggles and USB to tablet is required. For Spark and Mavic Pro owners, the Goggles communicate using Ocusync, so HDMI is not needed and still can use a cell phone or tablet. Check out my video ruclips.net/video/3l3HfNhC2Js/видео.html to see other use options when using the Goggles Thanks for Sub' and commenting. Happy droning
I still dont understand. What configeration for a P4P do I use if I dont have a sheild tablet and I want to fly the drone using an ipad and some else controls the camera withthe googles. I want an "expert" to visually inspect things with the camera whilst I position the drone.
Yah.. that is not going to work. The P4 series does not have Ocusyce lithe Mavic Pro with dual controls and wireless connections to the Goggles. The P4 series can only connect from RC controller to Goggles via USB if wanting to "expert to have head-tracking gimbal control. You would give up the iPad /tablet ability to communicate with the RC Controller. You would have to be good pilot to fly line of site if someone else is using the control funtions of the Goggles (USB). Expert could view Goggles via HDMI and you could fly with iPad via USB. I have another Video on my channel that I show Head-Tracking functions using Goggles on P4P. Check it out.
Is there a configuration that will allow camera display with flight controls & settings on the tablet, and head tracking camera on the goggles? I want to let someone else wear the goggles and have control the gimbal / camera; and I will fly with a combination of LoS and the moving camera view on the tablet.
No configuration for the Phantom 4 Pro Brian. I can only get them to have a Tablet view and Goggles view simultaneously when Goggles receive input from HDMI and Tablet from USB. The HDMI will not transmit Head Tracking. But a tablet is really not required to fly. If you are in line of sight and can see the drone to fly while the person wearing the goggles is connected via USB, they can experience the head tracking while the pilot flies around. There are several Head Tracking functions, one of which controls the camera within the limitations of the camera's gimbal ranges and the other where camera uses gimbal ranges along with steering the drone in the direction of head tracking position( really cool). The next two I am not sure of because I do not own: 1) The Phantom 4 Pro+ maybe? because the screen is built into the controller and the Controller has a free USB connection for the Goggles. 2) I do not own a Mavic Pro or Spark that uses Ocusynce so again maybe? because the Goggles can connect wirelessly. Thanks for commenting and watching
Addy, good morning, not wanting to abuse, but could help me, I bought the Goggle DJ glasses a short time, and my altitude via RC does not reach more than 30 meters, I could not find where I can change this altitude of Goggle, as this product is new I did not find any tutorial about it. could you help me in this regard? Thank you very much
Carlos, the 30-meter limitation was invoked DJI to force users to re-sign into their DJI accounts (username and password) thus verifying latest No-Fly Zone (NFZ) updates were installed. Goggles and DJI Go 4 apps and firmware must be of latest. After re-sign in of DJI account, the 30 m limitation should be lifted. Note, recheck all you setting and make sure geofencing limitation is invoked (Beginner mode). Hope my hints/knowlodge helps
There is noch real Information if the pantom 4 Pro plus v1.2 can be conected to the DJI goggles wirless, with cables is OK but to dangerous after about 15 conections after a few fly times the conections on the goggles or the controler start making problems even though we havethe best cables.
So, the it's only in the Phantom 4 Pro V2 that gets the Ocusynce so you are stuck Like I am with wired connections. The Version 1 series is Lightbridge connection. I have made many mates and de-mates of the connections and no issues with USB micro or HDMI. These are industry standard on cell phones, cameras, etc... The big issue is pulling on the cables once connected and that is why I point out to "strain relief" the cable so not to pull on connectors. I see this with young people that are rough on their cell phones charging cables and wired earbuds. Wired equipment needs to be handled with care and that is why industry is moving to wireless Bluetooth or Wifi connections. Some Cell phones don't even have a place to plug in a headphone jack. I do now have Ocusync of my DJI Mavic Pro and it is nice to have no cables... Thanks for stopping by and commenting, Happy droning...
Hi Addy, Thank you for your very clear video! I just bought a P4P and DJI Goggles. I am hesitating between buying the DJI HDMI module that is quite expensive or a tablet with an HDMI output. It seems the Shield tablet K1 is disrupted. Would you have another recommended tablet or smartphone ? Best regards, Lionel
Hi Lionel, sorry, I would have to do shopping research to find a table that has similar specs as the Nvidia K1 Shield. With its 8 inch screen (perfect for DJI controller) and1920 x 1200 resolution on a powerful gaming quad core 2.2 GHz processor, I would be careful to find something as good. I do see used ones on eBay, mine was actually a factory refurbished unit. But not to worry, the DJI Goggles work best connected with the USB. The HDMI module is the cheapest option at $99 if you want both Goggles and Table at the same time. I would keep shopping around, there must be some good deals this close to the holidays. Happy droning.
correct me if I'm wrong... With the HDMI cable you have the camera and telemetry on the tablet and only the camera in goggles, but you can not control the camera movements/head tracking??
Correct for the Phantom 4 series and Inspire series, HDMI is just a video link. Any HDMI output from a gaming station, PC or DJI P4P etc.. will video play on the goggles. The goggles have their own built-in software /firmware. Goggles are controlled from the touch pad (on the right side of the goggles) and the various buttons but control is for the goggles only. A tablet or cell phone would still need to be connected via USB to the to navigate the DJI Go 4 app. On the other hand, USB is a data link so Head Tracking data is transmitted from Goggles to the RCvia USB cable and then the RC transmits camera movement commands to the drone. Also, DJI GO 4 App is controllable using the Goggles touch pad and buttons. No need for cell phone or Tablet. In fact, in this configuration, the USB port is taken by the goggles do not phone or tablet could be used. I like the HDMI and the USB combination. Although when I want to navigate the DJI Go 4 App (since the tablet is connected via USB), I have to flip the goggles up to seem my tablet screen to control the App since I only get camera feed from HDMI
Addy, thanks for your video. I have a P4 Adv and do not have the HDMI port on my controller (Only USB and micro USB). I messaged DJI and they said to use the USB port and to be honest I didn't trust their response. After seeing your video it appears that I can use the USB port for the goggles. Do you know if a USB splitter or HUB would allow you to use the goggles and a tablet? TIA
Hi Trey, I had thought about that before but did not test since I did not have a USB data Hub. The RC controller and the Goggles are USB 2.0 configuration and the quick look I did do showed most USB data Hubs are USB 3.0. One company that sells USB data Hubs is Anker. Not sure if backward compatible with USB 2.0, I think it is? That would be a cool thing to test. Wish I had a better answer for you. In my video, I was communicating the options I had that I feel are most common. If you do give it a try, let us know how it worked. Happy New Year.
Thanks William, Appreciate the comment. Check out my channel and I hope you like my other videos. I really have fun with video editing and flying for this hobby of mine.
Addy, just set everything up googles etc. Ya I also would like the telemetry on the googles and on my Ipad mini but like you said I am limited to having both unless i have a device with hdmi out. Bummer. What do you think the best way to fly is if you don't have the shield device? Having the hdmi telemetry on the ipid or goggles? I tend to think using the Ipad might be better in case I get into trouble in the air or landing etc. Would be nice to have both though like you have. Where did you get the K1 Shield? $$?.............-26 Mt Washington Static temp without wind!
Hi Bill Wow, -26 F that is without wind chill. I often do not fly using goggles and Nvidia K1 Sheild tablet as the iPad is a more stable Go4 App device than the Android versions. So I always fly using the iPad and RC controller and when I want to use goggles I just use the HDMI output module on the RC controller to get a video feed from the camera. You develop skill very easily flying the drone using the RC controller sticks without looking at the sticks as it becomes an extension of your willing the drone to fly where you want it to go without having to concentrate on stick movement. So viewing the Drone's camera feed is like you are in the cockpit of the aircraft and your stick movements are intuitive to flying and looking at the goggles. If for some reason you want to perform a Go 4 App flight maneuver like "Point of Interest" for example, just lift the goggles momentarily to look at iPad screen and then flip the goggles back down for viewing. I like this best and not too intrigued with controlling the drone from the goggles. Is probably great for Mavic Pro and Spark pilots because of Ocusync but for cable connections using Phantom 4 series and Inspire series USB to Tablet and HDMI to Goggles works fine. The Nvidia K1 Shield use to be inexpensive and popular 2 years back when I got it. It still is very popular but manufacturing of the device is limited now and tough to find a good deal because the demand is higher than the supply. Mine was a factory refurbished unit. (I but a lot of electronics factory refurbished, saving money and still getting all the warranty of new). You just have to shop on eBay, Amazon or other to find a deal and availability which come and go often. Almost New Year. Happy 2018 I hope for all.
Good evening, can you tell me which adapter you use between the control and Goggle DJI, any reference. Is it micro USB (male) to HDMI (female)? Thank you very much
Sure, the HDMI Adapter at the RC end of the cable requires a Female HDMI A (full size) to Male HDMI C (Mini). The other end of the cable at the Googles end is Male HDMI D (Micro), but the included cable has this connection. If you were to purchase a longer cable, you can omit the adapter and get a cable that had Male HDMI D Micro on one end and Male HDMI C Mini on the other end. I am going to order a long cable so others can where the Goggles and not have to stand to close to me. Let say for search and rescue for example or someone just really would like to see in an immersive way flying above the ground. so many applications. Thanks for asking.
Yes, I have the Fat Shark Dominator V3 and I like the internal Fan for anti-fogging, the lightweight and portability, but the video is inferior to that of the DJI Goggles. They are okay but the one image is split by the two lenses and the field of view viewing angle is less. You see a large boarder around what you are seeing in other words. I use the Fat sharks more for FPV flying planes and hand built DJI F550 flame wheel.
Thanks for both replies! Nice info. Well haven't flown in a week too cold! Bummer! Preparing for a small party tonight at the house I will introduce my phantom 4 pro to some people. Well got the tend to the apple pie in the oven many thanks for the assist....saw the update on Ken with his mother. Regards.
Bmw Motorcycle Touring , thanks for comment. Yes, hdmi adapter is www.amazon.com/dp/B00CJH61RI/ref=cm_sw_r_oth_tai_McbgAbXX9PKBF and the Nvidia K1 Shield Tablet is www.amazon.com/dp/B0171BS9CG/ref=cm_sw_r_oth_tai_qebgAbJX0YVHB. The Tablet is more difficult to get these days as it is a popular gaming tablet (high performance graphics) and because it is becoming more difficult to buy. I bought a factory refurbished unit a year ago at $199 on Amazon, it is considerably more expensive now at $340 ish. I would search around eBay, Amazon and see if you can get a better deal or not. But, it is an excellent tablet for droning and with HDMI out feature, is rare to any tablet out there.
Hi Eddy, Thks for all the info!! What type of usb receptacle is at goggles? Is the feed 1080p . I have the p4p. I THINK I FIGURED IT OUT , I JUST READ GOGGLE MANUAL. THKS AGAIN FOR ALL OF YOUR VIDEOS !!
Hi Ray, It is a micro USB at the Goggles end. The video feed is 1080p for a good distance and past a certain distance (depending on signal strength) the feed goes to 720p automatically. It is hardly noticeable because the goggles' displays are so good. I have the Fatshark V3 Goggles and no comparison, the DJI version is so much better. Although the Fatsharks are a nice size and weight. But for the money, the DJI Goggles have way more technology and options over the nearly same cost of the Fatsharks.
I must say I’m not really impressed with the goggles using the USB port to the controller it is not as crystal clear as everyone says it is maybe because it’s not the mavic pro But I thought the only thing difference in the two drones is one is wireless
Hi Richard, sorry for delayed responses to all your recent comments in the past few days, I just got back from Canada where I was "off the grid" fishing with brother and bunch of other guys for past two weeks. Actually, just a week fishing and a week visiting. It is true, the only difference is one is wireless (Mavic pro = Ocusynce and P4p version 1 =USB cable). New P4p version 2 is now Ocusynce. The Goggles are 1080p and 720p depending on distance away from the controller. If you mean not crystal clear, if you are experiencing blurriness (out of focus), like me, I need reading glasses to see crystal clear. I recently purchased Focus Fixers for the DJI Goggles ruclips.net/video/HMAkOK44wi8/видео.html and now I have the perfect solution and convenience without fooling around with glasses. Hope this helps.
Hi Addy. Wondering how Ken is doing? In addition. I just got my Hdmi to mini HDMI but it is the wrong adapter, it's too big for the port on the RC. Looks like I need HDMI to mini USB not mini hdmi. The port is smaller than the adapter i received. But also on the way is a new module that has 4 ports maybe will accept this new adapter into it. In your video did you mean "hdmi to mini USB or were you correct in saying hdmi to mini hdmi thanks Bill.
Bill, still do not know more about Ken. The Adapter is HDMI to HDMI mini HDMI Mini Adapter,VCE (2-PACK) Gold Plated Mini HDMI to HDMI Adapter www.amazon.com/dp/B0111HRJT0?ref=yo_pop_ma_swf
Yea that is what I bought. I confirmed it. My problem is the RC does not have that port. But when the new module comes by the 5th I will be able to use it. Thanks from balmy south eastern MA checking at 9 degrees.
I assume the "droht Pantomime" reference is bad spell check for DJI Phantom 4....... Pro Plus . I am almost certain that Phantom 4 Pro you have uses the Lightbridge 2 system (requiring cable). It was not until the Phantom 4 Pro V2.0, when P4P was equipped with OcuSync radio/video transmission technology. THis video is from 2017 and is dated but still relevant for those of use that still use the V1 version of the P4P. Thanks for stopping by and commenting, Happy droning .
Addy, Good morning, you've helped me a lot, thank you. I have another question about Goggle DJI, when you link the goggle DJI along with my tablet is (Mini 3 apple), you meche in the configuration of the image transmission set, where below the picture appears enabled for image output, but in my does not appear, nothing below the frame, to enable double image output. Also in my radio counter Phantom 4 pro has two outputs one USB (larger) and another micro USB what can be happening. Yours sincerely Luiz Carlos Pannain
Not sure if you are questioning the DJI GO 4 app HDMI enable or the Goggles HDMI enable. Can you provide the minute counter of my video to your question please. As far as the outputs for the Module, I only use the larger USB and HDMI outputs, I never tried the micro USB or the CAN Bus expansion connector.
Addy is there anything I can do to set up the googles BEFORE i get the adapter? I notice I have to SET UP the googles the display tells me to get Assistent 2. Or do I need to wait for the adapter? Thax
Yes, you will need to set up using USB to get Goggles registered, latest firmware/software using Assistant 2. You only need Adapter when viewing HDMI, but best connection is USB because then you can fly using RC and touchpad on Goggles. You have no control of the DJI App on the Goggles when using HDMI.
Addy: Q: flying the drone in 5.8Ghz vs 2.7ghz using googles? Seems only 2.4ghz can be transmitted. Was wondering if you had thought about this and what you found? Also (sorry to be a pain) seems you have the RC with the 4 ports including the full size HDMI. Why can't you connect full size hdmi on the RC to the mini on the googles? Just curios as I await for my adapter. Although I ordered the new RC module yesterday (4 ports). Thanks burrrrr it's cold! Minnesota -36!!!!
Hey Bill, the Goggles only work on 2.4 GHz band. It is a really good reliable frequency, here are some technical facts: The higher the GHz the less distance in transmission for the same wattage (power), so 2.4 GHz is best for distance. 5.8 GHz offers less interference, so when in an "RF congested" area this would be a good choice like flying around buildings or structures close by. Each has there advantages at the Drone level. Nothing wrong about 2.4 GHz for the Goggles.
I would not fly indoors, unless in a huge building and you are comfortable flying in Atti- mode. Yes.... way too cold for flying, it's 11:00 AM and only 4 degrees F (and that is without the wind chill effect). I Can not remember it being so cold in Dec. WInter is just getting started. Bummer. There is a lot you can do when inside. THe DJI Go4 App has a flight simulator to practice. I should try if that can be done using Goggles, Hmmmm I'll have to give it a try. Keep warm.
I hear ya. I'm not going to fly indoors just conversation. It's 5 degrees here. I tried the simulator seems cheesy. Does not give me a realistic flight. But for learning the others aspects of the Phantom 4 pro or any other aircraft its ok. I believe DJI could have done better with this FS..but I'm not complaining JUST WANT TO FLY! I'm a plumber going out to work in this cold however no frozen pipes yet! I have a picture on my cell phone of a Thermometer of Dec 2015 shows -8. Could be worse. Minn -36!
Yes, it does, If you look at my latest video about the goggles, You will see a chart that shows compatibility with DJI Phantom 4 series. HDMI is a video feed and does not have all the flight telemetry data and DJI GO 4 or DJI GO app . USB is used for that.
Hi Andy I have a question about broadcasting with Facebook live I have a DJI P4 with the HDMI add on my remote how can I access the DJI GO 4 app menu in the goggles I can see all of the icons at the top but i can't get to them to change them ? on my iPad mini4 I can tap the 4 dots in the upper right corner and then i can tap broadcast live to Facebook but I can't do that on the goggles. thanks for help E.J. Duvail from Texas......
Hi EJ, WHen using the HDMI connection, you only get a video feed for P4's camera and you can not control the Go 4 App on the Goggles touchpad. If you use the USB connection, you can control the Go 4 App with Goggles touchpad but then you do not have a connection to the iPad. I would start the Live broadcast on the iPad and then fly. you will not have App control on Goggles but live stream should work. DJI optimised the Goggles for Mavic Pro and Spark using Ocusync, a wireless connection that does it all. Happy Holidays
Thanks Andy but i also wanted to know if i connected via usb how can I access the controls with the goggles? the ones at the top of the screen in the goggles?
To access the Go 4 App on the Goggles (connected USB), a double finger swipe down on the Goggles touchpad activates the menu screen. A double finger rearward swipe locks the touchpad and two finger forward swipe unlocks the touchpad. Single finger swipes up, down, back and forward navigate the menu and a single tap selects the option you are in. On the bottom of the Goggles is a back button and function button. I have a link I would like to share for Tom's Tech Time. Tom is a young German man who is very professional in his videos (A lot better than me) and in this video link goes into great detail about the controls as I would have to write a small book to explain all. Here is the link ruclips.net/video/fhccee-NQ44/видео.html
Hi Jeff, to be honest, I never really touched the module in a way that I would have noticed since I mostly just pug in and remove cables without touching the module itself. It would not be too unusual for the electronics to get warm but should not get hot as the goggles have their own power source so not a lot of power should be used other than the communications via USB and or HDMI. IF I notice next I use the Goggles, I will feel the module and let you know if there is reason for concern. Thanks for watiching and commenting.
Wa s just reading and viewing online of a couple of guys flying their drone in Golden Gate NP and got busted by the park ranger. He got it on video. What is up with that! Can't fly near airports or among many people and under 400 feet not much more than that. His citation was 275.00! Crazy!
Bill, there are lots of places to fly, but airports, national parks, over large groups of people, certain local places deemed no fly zones, all takes a little research where to fly before going out. Takes 5 minutes. I use Google earth to see what is pf interest and then check out the legality of flying there. In some cases, I might need to contact the airport to get clearance. I have a video I made from presentation slides I made to teach first responders, law enforcement, general public and drone pilots. Check it out, you will have to pause on the slides to read. But it is all there. USA is still the friendliest Drone country, Canada and others are much more restrictive. I belong to several organizations that advocate for us drone pilots. Important to keep laws sensible. The industry depends on it. Did you try using the USB option for Goggle connection ?
No, Two configurations for DJI Phantom 4 pro v.1: New v.2 uses Ocysync. 1) Full-size USB (type A) on the RC controller connects to micro USB (type B) on the DJI Goggles for Goggle control assist (Goggle based Go4 App for camera control, head tracking etc.... and piloting Drone with RC Controller. or 2) Full-size HDMI (type A) on the RC controller connects to mini HDMI (type C) on the DJI Goggles. HDMI only displays Video Feed from the camera that you would see on the DJI Go 4 App using cellphone or tablet ...... and piloting Drone with RC Controller. Hope this helps, Feel free to ask more if you need more information
Hi Victor, I have experience with several configurations of Nvidia K1 Shield tablet used with Goggles. One configuration being not having the HDMI Module installed on the RC controller. In that configuration, not having module mentioned above, an HDMI cable connection between HDMI output on the Nvidia Tablet and the Goggles, the Tablet can be used to navigate the DJI Go4 App and the Goggles show the Tablet's "screen view" real-time. Any data on Tablet view is exactly shown in the Goggles. But, you cannot control the Go4 App on the Goggle's touchpad. Only on the tablet. I like this configuration mentioned above when sharing the Goggles with someone and I fly the drone by RC with Tablet. However, it is also best for flying when not sharing. Flying and having both goggles and tablet/RC is really good but you need a spotter ( another person) when flying and using goggles per the rules of FAA.
Hi, I am having a little trouble with the setup using both the USB and the HDMI. When I plug in the HDMI I get a black screen on the Goggles and something in the upper left hand corner [MODE ] P-GPS but it disconnects from the drone. I am using an iPad Min. Also not sure if you know this or not but I go the DJI Goggles HDMI (Type a) F...Male adaptor for Inspire 1. I have a DJI Phantom 4 Pro, is this an issue? Thanks for any feedback.
Hi, so.... no problem with HDMI Module stating for Inspire. I need a little more information. In the DJI Go4 app, did you select "Simultaneous Image Output to HDMI and USB" ( in the HD sub-menu of the app? I know you did select HDMI in the Goggles app correct.
As an added note, if I hook anything up the the HDMI port on the remote, it will disconnect the aircraft, so I could have an issue with the module install in the remote. Here is what I have when I hook it up to my TV: s3-us-west-1.amazonaws.com/homejarvideos/HDMI+screen.JPG Then it goes back and forth from Black to this screen.
Well, I got it to work on an android tablet, so I deleted the DJI software on my iPad min 4 and reinstall installed it and now it works as you have in your video. Who Knew?, Thanks for your help, you gave me somethings to think about, and I thanks you for that. So, if anyone else is having the same problem, just delete and re-install the software first, it worked for me.
@@homejarpcs4889 Awesome, this is why I love the drone community. The community "gets it" that Drones are a legitimate technology and much of that acceptance is because of an "open forum". Each sharing their learnings and experiences growing the community until it becomes the "new normal". As it is with each new technology tool/gadget and those with previously becoming mainstream. Thanks for sharing your learnings and experiences. please check out some of my other videos on my channel if you like, let me know what you think, thanks again.
Do you think if you have the controller for the Phantom pro + controller with the built in screen, that the built in display will go blank with the USB setup using the googles?
Hi Frankie G. The problem was with the DJI Go 4 running on some Android tablets with version 7.x Nougat. On August 21 (about a month after I mentioned the problem in several videos I made), Oreo version 8 Android operating system update came out and it solved all my problems on my Android cell phone and Nvidia Shield K1 tablet. Currently, both iOS and Android devices I have all work well. Every time an update happens by DJI or by Android/iOS, I cringe because I have to test DJI GO 4 App and Drone's functionality all over again to see if the system is stable. But that is technology for you. I get it why its being done, its just a pain sometimes. To answer your question though, the Goggles were not contributing to the problem so P4P+ should be good.
Great video! I just installed the HDMI Module for my PH4P Obsidian but it's not working properly with or without my RE Goggles. As soon as I plug in the mini Hdmi cable thats running from the headset to the controller, the video feed disappears from my iPhone. I am never able to get a video feed even without the iPhone. When I try to enable HDMI in the headset it tells me that I am not connected and I made sure to enable simultaneous image output to app and Hdmi as well as Display OSD on HDMI Output. Any ideas? Thanks much.
You can test that HDMI Module is working if you connect HDMI Module to a TV to see if you can see the camera Feed on P4p. Other wise lets see if I can help, but I need to understand more by asking specific questions that may help me to understand because there are several connection configurations and only one works. a) Is firmware latest on the Goggles? (DJI Assistant 2 v.1.2.3 on DJI.com RE Goggles) b) You updated the RC Controller after Goggles updated? c) Go 4 App latest update? d) You can connect iPhone USB to RC Controller after you installed the HDMI Module open GO 4 App, Turn on Controller then P4p and you are connected with camera view? e) You then connected HDMI cable between new HDMI Module and the P4p, followed by powering on the Goggles, you selected "Simultaneous Image Output to App and HDMI" (in the HD menu "image transmission" of the Go 4 App)? Followed by Goggles App selection of HMDI. Are you getting an image now for both iPhone and Goggles? I found the sequence order to make a difference for updating of Firmware and various connecting option sequence issues so I perform in the order on the video and above.
I just tested and I got a 3 second glimpse of a black screen with some telemetry on the tv from Ph4p that says P.Atti top left corner 720P on top right corner with HS VS etc on the bottom like you would see on the app with phone. I found an HDMI to HDMI Mini that I just hooked up so no adapter and it did the same thing! Hmmmmm Also, As soon as I plug the Mini hdmi to the controller, the app turns off!
I would go through the Firmware updates as I suggested and try again. I'm not familiar with RE Goggles but I can't imagine the HDMI connectivity would be different than the regular Goggles, the only difference is the wireless connection for FPV flying from what I understand.
Andy, good news :-) I downgraded the aircraft software and then upgraded to the new software and everything is working like a champ! So happy about that thanks again! Jeff
i have the phantom 3 advanced and purchased the hdmi module what other adapter do i have to purchase? i mainely want to use the googles for my litchi waypoint missions so i can enjoy my preset flight. can i do that? i will be usong the ipad mini 4 with it, so basicaly the googles are going to be used as a monitor since i have the older drone do you think the image will be clear
you should be good unless you need the adapter which will make a HDMI cable mini on one end and micro on the other end as I explain in the video. good luck, enjoy.
Hi Richard, The cable that came with goggles is HDMI D "micro" to HDMI A "standard". The HDMI "micro" goes to the goggles and with an adapter, you can go from HDMI "standard" to HDMI C "Mini". Adapter link from Amazon = a.co/gmYL3kS
Addy, I order the Epson but it is in back order, I also order the DJI Google to try which one will I keep, I have one question when you connect the DJI Google to the Phantom 4, does the home point get updated and you get GPS from what? the Google? since I connect to the RC with the USB. How to do the compass calibration? Is it with the Google or with the phone? Very confuse. Please help
Let me know how you like the Epson AR glasses, I hope to have a pair myself in a couple of months. The Homepoint gets updated on DJI drones regardless of the tablet, cell phone or Goggles. You actually do not need any of these devices or the GO or Go4 App to fly. The drone has its own GPS and does this automatically. Now talking about Compass Calibration ( yes the Go 4 is needed but about a year ago it is no longer required to Compass Calibrate before each flight unless the Go4 suggest/prompts you to. I check it by starting my RC, Then my Drone and finally my GO 4 App on Tablet or Cell Phone. If everything looks okay and further intervention is not required (like calibration), then I shut down everything. If I am going to do a Google flight where I want to see and control flight through the Goggles (USB connection), I then start RC, Drone and then start the Goggles. In this configuration, you are not using a Cell phone or Tablet. If it's going to be an HDMI flight I leave tablet or cell phone connected to RC via USB and then start RC, Drone and then Start the Go4 App on phone or Tablet. I then start the HDMI connection turning on HDMI in Go4 App and HDMI in the Goggles' App. Learning to do so, I practiced and experimented until I got a sequence that worked for me. There is no way to perform Compass Calibration on the Goggles's App.
Addy, thanks a lot for your good advice and info, I soon as I get the Epson, I will send you my opinion, but somehow there is a delay on getting them, maybe due to the Holiday or a High Demand, who knows. Happy Holiday and Happy New Year.
Hi Addy - I am noticed that the Go4 app has way more functionality on my phone than the functionally on the google menu. If you use the Shield set-up are you seeing the google menu or the Shield menu for the Go4 app?
Hi Frankie, Yes Goggles have an abbreviated version of the Go4 App that is made to operate with DJI's drones that are OcySynce wirelessly and non-OcuSync via the USB connection. When using HDMI from RC Module or HDMI output from Nvidia K1 Shield, the Goggles would show the full function of the Go 4 App (video output only) from tablet after you select HDMI within the Goggle's App. In this case, you will see the full version of the tablet's Go 4 App display but you can not control the drone from the Goggles Touchpad ( that only works when using USB connection). So what does this all mean? You see in the Goggles everything you see on the tablet using HDMI. If using USB to control drone via Goggles touchpad, you get only the Goggles version of the Go 4 App which has less capability of the full Go 4 App on a tablet or cell phone but you use can use the Goggles version of the App to control the drone. I personally like the HDMI and using the tablet.I only use the USB if I want to head-track fly my P4 and P4p.
Thanks Addy nice and clear. I install a module same as yours in my Phantom 4 Pro and all the time when I turn on the sequence of RC > Drone .and goggles The DJI APP tel me on the left up settings on a red triangle needs to install a RC controller firmware not once but every time. Do you known why? In my module does not have a micro sd card slot to do what DJI said. Thank you so much and have a Nice day.
Hi Ricardo, I have to ask so I understand better, did you update the RC Firmware? I can tell you how if you did not. FYI, only the P4P+ (with built in screen) has the factory installed HDMI module containing the micro SD slot. It also has a full size HDMI port not the mini. So you have same as me, and everyone else the got the module as a add-on accessorie
Addy Overbeeke . Hi Dear, I bought the module with the Hdmi install it on RC P4P and upgrade the firmware , but every time I turn on he say that I need to upgrade the firmware again. When done I can use normal, when I turn all off and day after I turn it on he say that I need to upgrade again. Thank you for your Reply. Very kindness.
Interesting, so let's try something to get more information: 1) Power on RC, the P4P, and start the Go4 App. On the upper right of the App's start screen you will see 3 short horizontal bars, tap/hold the bars for several seconds and release. A menu should appear that will allow you to check the firmware version. Write this down for reference later. 2) Perform the firmware upgrade using PC or Mac computer with DJI Assistant 2 from DJI.com (software on the P4P web page). After the firmware is updated reboot everything and follow any instructions on continued P4P updates if prompted to. again with reboot if further update was required. 3) Again, on the startup screen check the firmware version again as instructed in step 1 above. Is the firmware the same version or now a later version? Here are some video links to perform the firmware on RC, P4P and Goggles for reference: P4P, RC : ruclips.net/video/oQ_WEtnqI7c/видео.html Goggles: ruclips.net/video/Crnjfe4ssdo/видео.html Note, I like to delete and reloaded the latest Go4 App before Firmware updates ( I have had better luck way) Let me know how you made out..... This is a good thing to learn as updates are part of the droning experience unfortunately. I think of it as a maintenance task as part of the droning experience. Actually kinda fun once the steps are learned and practiced a few times.
Dear Addy I read something on DJI forum (link Page) forum.dji.com/thread-74193-1-1.html( I can also confirm the HDMI module does NOT work on the P4P remote controller. You can install the HDMI module with no issues (ribbons still connect in same places they should into the board) but when powering on the remote controller, I get a red dot and Disconnected in the App itself.)People are waiting for an new update for this. I delete and reload the DJIGO 4 like you said and nothing happened. I loved your support, you are a very kind person, I would like to wish you many happiness and great moments in your life. I am 68 years old and live in Rio de Janeiro Brazil. But I'm going to switch the module to the original that came with my Drone and wait.
Hmmmm...... I do not have a problem with my P4P, I do not believe everything I read on those threads. I got lead down the wrong path a few times so I try to solve myself
Sure it is the Nvidia K1 Shield. Not sure if in production anymore. They are hard to find new and are well sought after. so they are around $390, I paid less for a factory refurbished unit and I absolutely love mine but for the money, I think I would spend a little more and get the DJI Sky Crystal. There are more choices today. search for Tablet with HDMI out if you can not find the Nvidia Sheild K1.
I installed the HDMI module on my Phantom 4 PRO transmitter (Box says Phantom 3...purchased direct from DJI) and this is what I am getting.....once I plug the mini HDMI on transmitter, the USB connected to my Ipad Mini 4 stop working and says "disconnected". I only get the OSD on my separated monitor via HDMI and it is on and off, no picture. If I plug the DJI goggles on the HDMI...it cancels "disconnect" the USB as well and at same time the goggles also says "disconnected" and nothing is displayed. -Yes, I selected to simultaneous image output to app and HDMI and selected HDMI on DJI Goggles as well. DJI Goggles will only work on USB (transmitter) to micro USB (Goggles). -Yes, I did update the transmitter firmware after installing the module I wonder if I got a bad HDMI module or simply will not work on Phanton 4 PRO...any ideas? I see that the first set up you had your iPad image is on and off and have green bars...I had that problem and it went away after the firmaware update you must do after installing the Module.
Hi Ed, My latest update did correct the green bars and everything is working well. I will be making a video this extended holiday weekend using the goggles. But let's talk about your set up and see if we can resolve. First, the DJI HDMI module you have is the same I have. The box does say P3, but before I had ordered, I contacted DJI support and they said it was the only module they have and it is compatible with the P4P. I was skeptical because the new P4P+ has a different Module containing a micro SDcard slot and full-size HDMI port. DJI stated that was only for units with built in screen and not available for separate purchase. So you are good on that. Reading through your comment above, You have done everything correctly. The big problem for you is the disconnected issue. I suggest two things 1) reconnecting each of the 3 flat cable connections one more time to ensure good connection exists and see if the problem remains. 2) this will sound silly but it resolved other issues in the past for me, delete the Go4 app off of you tablet and perform and new install. I have found the updates not to to be consistent with the full install as if it were your first install of the app. Let me know if that corrects the problem. If not, I will make the effort to retrace my install and setup and see if I can offer any further advice just to make sure you did not miss something. I will have more time on the weekend look at the possibilities for you disconnect issue.
Hello Andy, yes I actually had re-intalled the ribbons twice .....they were nice and neat at firt time but I did anyway. I contacted DJI...tech said the problem may be the module...or the Remote Control ( what else right?) so I returned the module to DJI...hoping to get another one in 3~4 weeks (rolling eyes) and pray that the problem was the module and I don't need send the Remote Control to DJI...which is also one week old.
Sorry to hear that Ed, It's not your fault and I share your frustration. But you should know the Module and the RC are designed to work together and both are OEM, so it's not like you are trying to get some third party part to work. In my good fortune, both were good and it was an easy install and every thing worked. A later software update fixed my green bands on the tablet. You will get there and will be enjoying the Goggles soon I hope. Let me know you made out Ed.
I have the same problem, I installed the HDMI module on my P4P without problem, the DJI Goggles works well on USB port, but not on HDMI port. I sent RC to DJI and I still expect an answer.
Great video, it got me farther than any other video so far. One change, you say that the adapter is an HDMI to mini, it’s actually an HDMI to micro. At least on my phantom 4 pro. The other problem I am having is in my HD settings The interface is a little different. It has no enable settings like yours does. The goggles do but when I select it it says it’s disconnected. I am updated to the latest version. Any help.
Hi John, Thanks, I made this video almost two years and some things have changed for sure. Can you provide me with DJI drone type and are you using Andriod or IOS device? Also, what version Go4 App are you using? And I can see if I can help you. There has been much improvement with P4P V2 that use Ocusynce 2.0 which builds upon wireless communication of Mavic series and now is available on Mavic 2 pro and zoom. But for the rest of us still using the P4 and P4P V1, the Lightbright communication requires the wire HDMI or USB connection. Nothing wrong with wires but more to configure making for a little more difficult for the inital setup.
I bought a phantom for pro, but sold the controller and bought the one without the monitor because I needed to use Litchi software because it has a much better waypoint capabilities and you couldn’t use it with the built-in monitor. So I use an iPad with my P4P I don’t think there’s a difference in the helicopter itself. Do you think it is an android vs IOS issue why I don’t have that option.
Hi John, I don't want to assume but was your P4P+ a V1 or newer V2? Also, doe the new RC remote controller (without built in-screen) have the HDMI module? In order to have goggles work with Ipad tablet, the tablet uses the USB cable at the same time the Googles are using another cable, the HDMI cable (two cable system) If you have the HDMI Module installed, make sure you update the Controller's Firmware from DJI.
Hi again Addy. Just got my dji googles. Can't connect without an adapter (stinks) I have to Phantom 4 Pro the controller has only the mini hdmi with a standard USB port. Seems I have to go get an adapter like the one you show on this video. I wonder if they have them locally like at Walmart can see waiting for Amazon to deliver such a small item. I'm other wise excited to use them!
I am almost certain a Walmart would have the HDMI adapter. I wish it were not so cold out this week I have off from work, I want to fly and make videos. I will usually go if above 30 degree F, but the warmest it got today was 19 degrees F. Next few days are going to be even colder out here in the Berkshires. Burrrrrrrrrrr...... Congrats Bill, you can do a lot with goggles inside, wat a movie, fool around with DJI Go 4 App and learn all the touch commands ( Use the USB connection to practice.. it will develop muscle memory for the touchpad controls) Happy Holidays.
Happy holidays to you as well. I ordered at Amazon the adapter will be here Friday. I also ordered a charging dock. Guess what. The charging dock I just got today (3 batteries for Phantom 4 Pro) did not fit into the dock at all! I couldn't believe it with all the high reviews. I returned it got another type. Ya it's cold...real cold I dough the phantom would fly very long...certain to get an alert warning and its too cold anyway. I also bought adobe editing software to edit my videos and photos. Love this hobby already sinking big bucks into to though but it I see it as a hobby that has infinite possibilities. Nice Mt Wash shots. I was there 3 years ago.
Yes, really nice hobby indeed. I know a lot of friends that have a boat for fishing, or restore old cars or belong to a golf club or are into cycling, all are expensive hobbies and droning and video editing does not seem too expensive when I see how much others spend. It is all relative. Now that I have my FAA Part 107 license, I will see if I can turn my hobby into income by starting to do real-estate videos and maybe some golf clubs that I drone each hole going flying down the fairways from each tee-off to the green. The possibilities are endless. I also am on the SAR Drones (sardrones.org) website for volunteer Search and Rescue (using drones) where you can be in a database and can offer help in certain circumstances. All pretty cool stuff. too bad about the charger.
Wow never thought of that rescuing stuff! See Ken Huron on YT. This guy is about the funniest guy. Check out the YT video where his drone has a baby! and he delivers it!!! funny stuff. Well stay warm its a long winter but i will look for the first chance to go droning again! I want to fly just above the water on a pond or lake without going into the drink.
Just heard from YT Ready Set Drone and Dana that Ken Heron was in a Car accident and is hospitalized. He had gone up to New Jersey to see his Mother during the Christmas holiday. I have been following Ken for a long time and his famous musician friend Dana. I hope the best for Ken.
Distance is same as if using a tablet or cell phone with a remote controller. The Phantom 4 and Inspire series drones use Lightbridge technology for connection and the Goggles communicate through the wired interface via USB. HDMI option is just a video feed from the controller or a compatible tablet via HDMI cable. If you were using the Mavic Pro or the Spark, the range is little less than Lightbridge because the Goggles would be using wireless built in connection known as Ocusync. I'm not sure what the Mavic Air uses for transmission but I believe to use the goggles its the USB wired connection.
Addy Overbeeke THANK YOU FOR YOUR HELP!! I bought the goggles and trying like crazy to figure how to use the goggles touch pad on the side!! It’s been raining so much here, I haven’t been able to fly!! So I have been watching a lot of videos on how to work the goggles and so on!! Do you have goggles?
Yes, I have the Goggles, Check out DJI Tutorial for touchpad (see Link below) ruclips.net/video/4f7NtdXDoGQ/видео.html I have another video on the Goggles on my YT channel for Head tracking (see link below) ruclips.net/video/3l3HfNhC2Js/видео.html If you have any specific questions let me know. The weather here has not been good for flying as well. Working on some other videos, Goggles are great but its a pain to have to another person be there when flying (Spotter). Often I fly alone. Check out the rest of my videos if you get a chance. Thanks for watching and commenting
Addy Overbeeke last question I’m sorry for so many... but is it possible to change to the live view in the goggles to H/D ? I watched a video from DJI and the spokesman said you cant? But I thought that a new update may fix or enable this?
Happy to help. Live view has 1080 HD and 720 HD at different frame rates for smoothness vs quality. I have a link below (one of many I have from the research I use to do when I first got the Goggles myself), It starts @ 4.11 minutes into the goggle menu's overview. ruclips.net/video/oepKt01b7rw/видео.htmlm11s
Sorry to hear and good to know, learning from drone community. I'm no pro, but rather just sharing my experiences. I was fortunate not experiencing having to calibrate, they worked right away after making settings in Apps. But good to know, thanks. Are you getting much use with them?
@@AddyOverbeeke sorry i was little bit frustrated, withe goggles with black mavic no problem, just plug & play, but white goggles with white phantom 4 is plug to computer, download assistant 2 ( not assistant 2 mavic or assistant 2 phantom, just the normal assistant 2) then turn the goggles on and...my one gets not connected, the software in the goggles stock at "searching assistant 2 on computer" after 1 min it fails. in the windows taskbar i saw that the CDC Serial is missing there to connect the goggles with windows, maybe thats a dll fail from dji i dont know, at the moment the battery is charging from 19pm to now 3:30 am and its not finished, after its finished i will try it with full battery to connect again. the first try was the unbox one with the retail battery charge what is 2 LED's. yet i didnt tried the HDMI cable to only watch movies or some because i unboxed, looked the connection and now loading, just first day :D bought yesterday
@@wolfgangmerneg5277 That's been a problem for most, but it's getting better since my older version in my video. The newer OcuSync 2.0 is an improvement and it's all wireless. Expensive to try to keep up with new variations and how fast they come out for DJI. I usually upgrading only for evolutionary changes P3s going to P4p, waiting for P5 which is going to be nice long wait.
Can you help me? I installed the HDMI output module on my P4P RC Controller so I could output to the HDMI for a guest to view the flight using the RE Goggles. I am getting weak connection pixilation and green screen blocking on my iPad mini. Is there a fix for this? I have updated the firmware on the RC controller and refreshed the firmware on the drone. When I activated the goggles, I believe there was a firmware update that was applied too.
I would delete the Go 4 App and reinstall fresh/new Go 4 App. you will have to sign back in and then see how it is. If still the same, download Assistant 2 from DJI website and Update the Drone, Controller, and Firmware one more time. I have had this problem several times when updates are pushed. I go through this routine and it corrects the pixelation and green bars. Good Luck.
Kind of you to say. I'm not in the same league as Ken. He is a professional. This is just a little hobby for me. but you made me smile. Subscriptions to me is rewarding to know I get to share more people with my passion of this hobby and awesome perspective from how I view my world. Thanks for commenting . Really appreciate it.
Yes, any tablet with HDMI output that can operate the DJI Go 4 app can stream to DJI Goggles. Just make sure in the Image Transmission Settings (HD icon), the "Simultaneous image to HDMI and app" is enabled (turned on). I used the K1 Shield only for an explanation because that is what I have. There seem to be more tables available now with the HDMI output. I was just using my goggles this past week with my son. They are great, but when it is hot outside, they are a sweating machine LOL.
We have cold winters with Spring and Fall seasons, so except for the 3 months of summer, most of the year it is comfortable here to wear the goggles, but wow when it is hot out they are uncomfortable to wear. I wish DJI had incorporated a fan like my Sharkbite Goggles have. Happy droning Aarun.
With the DJI Go 4 app is open/running, look to the upper right corner and you will see three dots. Open the menu that the 3 dots are associated with and the "HD" icon should be the 4th selection down from the top icon, just below the icon of the RC Controller icon. Touch/open the menu within HD icon and you should see the "Simultaneous image output to HDMI and app" option that is shown at minute mark 2:23 in my video. Remember, HDMI is only a video transmission showing the view you see on the tablet's screen. You will not be able to control the drone (head tracking, flight modes etc...) from the goggles, that would require you to use USB connection. See my video about that at ruclips.net/video/3l3HfNhC2Js/видео.html. The nice thing about the new Phantom 4 pro V2 is that it uses a different transmission call Ocysync like the Mavic Pro and no cables are required. But, not worth the cost to upgrade for me, so for now, I do not mind the cables, I am used to them.
Yeah, this video is old now and was made when only the P4p version 1 was available which is a light bridge connection. The new version 2 uses the. Mavic's series ocusynce wireless, which is nice. I currently am working in Dubai, but when I get home will add the Version 1 to the title. Thanks for mentioning.
Sorry, It was my first attempt to talk in my videos and have since learned to just that, get to the point for information videos. Other videos I am trying to tell a story but sorry it is boring for you. Try some of my others to see if they might be more appealing or not. Thanks for watching and commenting.
Dear Addy. I changed the modules again and more carefully with the connections of the small cables of the module, I restarted the toys and everything worked perfectly like your tutorial. I am happy to have succeeded and to save your precious time. I have no idea why it happened wrong. I only did it again for you to have the conviction that everything with you happened without even the control asking for an upgrade. The curious thing for me was the fact that on the DJI website sell this module in P4P accessories. A warm hug and thank you for everything. Lets Fly !!!!
Excellent information. I've been researching the possibilities of using phone/tablet and Goggles with the Phantom 4 for months. You cannot get the flight records from the goggles alone, you have to have the app running. This video answered all the questions the forums didn't. Thank you.
You are welcome. this is a dated video 2017 but there is still a lot of DJI drones out there that use Lightbridge transmission and require cables. Glad information helped... Sorry for the poor edit.. I was still new to putting videos together then.
@@AddyOverbeeke
Good afternoon. I appreciate it's a 3 year old video, but even after all this time, the question of extracting the flight data from the DJI Goggles is still an issue. Not many tablets have HDMI capabilities like the K1, which is no longer produced.
Can I just ask 1 question please. If you use a dual USB splitter from the controller and connect one end to the goggles and the other to a phone/tablet, do you get a live view through the Goggles and be able to use the app on the phone?
Well done again, still not much around on the internet answering the issue..
@@gps-gps To be honest, I do not own a dual splitter USB cable and never tried. Concept is interesting but not sure of power is adequate for two devices. Would take some testing. I mostly use the Goggles now, which I have two sets, the regular white ones and the FPV version black ones with my DJI Mavic drones that use wireless Ocusync. I still fly the Phantom 4 and 4 Pro.... In September I finally get the Skydio 2 which I ordered last Nov. 2019....... Love the hobby and business.... How are you using the Goggles, do you have a split USB cable that you would test/try?
@@AddyOverbeeke Hello again. I am awaiting delivery of the RE Goggles, here in the uk they are like gold, everywhere sold out. I will try the splitter method I suggested and let you know. Regards.
@@gps-gps I have the RE version as well. I was gifted them from Kelly Shores at YT Channel "Ready Set Drone" for being subscriber of the month..... crazy nice gift..... they have the advantage of being also used for analog FPV goggles and comes with the antenna. Ready Set Drone is great source of information for FPV reviews and DJI drones.
So what version of the P4p do you have ? V1 or V2?
Thanks for doing the video. I had trouble connecting my phantom 4pro to both my goggle and phone till I watched your video.
Thank you, Raymond, that is why I made the video, to share what I learned in the setup for the hardware I had. There will be others that may have different setup experience depending on the hardware they have, but I think I covered the basics. Check out my other Goggles video about head tracking experience along with other videos I have made for this hobby I enjoy so much. Unfortunately, winter is upon us where I live and for the times I have the opportunity to fly, the chances are actually getting to go flying are reduced because of wind and cold temperatures. on another note, the Goggles actually work best for me when not too hot because they are a sweating machine in the hot weather. Happy Holidays
By far your video covers the P4 setup better than any that I've seen. Thanks for putting this together. I'm subscribing!
Thank you for kind words and subscribing, check out some of my other videos. I have some new videos coming out soon, it has been a windy winter and difficult to fly on weekends, but tomorrow looks promising.
Very informative! I wanted to use my iPad and the goggles in conjunction with the P4p obsidian, and just wanted a live video feed without the telemetry , for a true immersive experience. This is the only video I found on RUclips that showed me exactly what I needed to do for that.
Thanks!
Hi Ryan, Thanks for subscribing and kind words. Happy I was able to help. I am getting ready to post more videos on a regular basis now that some big work projects and weather allows for that. In the meantime, check out some of my other videos. Let me know if you have questions and happy flying your obsidian P4p. Goggles are pretty amazing although It makes flying a little more difficult having to have someone be a spotter when using them. Most of my flying is solo.
Addy Overbeeke I will definitely check them out. I do some solo flying but I find its much more fun to have another droner and/or observer with me.
Happy flying, and thanks again for the info!
Many thanks Addy, I talked about enabling the RC, but my control is the original, and I did not have HDMI outputs, I have now bought the output for my RC and I will switch to get a simutaneous HDMI video output. A good day to you, and once again thank you very much, you helped me a lot.
Great job getting to 100! Very clear explanation of the different setups, very professional setup!
Thank Brian, It was a warm humid day when I did the video and I was tired from traveling. But I wanted to try and get the video done in time for the 100th subscriber. It is not much to most RUclipsrs, but to me, it is a high number as the guy that is not popular or has many friends in my life. So it is interesting that 100 people would find me interesting enough to look at my channel. I am getting a big kick out of that... :)
Thank you! I had some questions and got them answered because of your help! You did a better job than customer support at DJI...
Thanks for the kind comment. I am just like you and others that had questions. I learned of my options and wanted to share. Happy Holidays.
Thanks so much Addy, it really bummed it out when they said I needed a converter. thanks again, very helpful.
I have just added that module to my p4, it was very expensive to order as GJI had stopped selling them here. I had a lot of difficulty getting the HDMI adapter as they are not common in the UK, getting the goggles to be a clear screen was a case of trying all the buttons and controls to get it. I want it to give others a flight and yet see to able to control it myself. make your victim sit down as you move forward they tend to fall over otherwise.
Hi Graham. So you are able to connect to the googles and everything is working well? My Neighbor had a similar vertigo issue until hos brain got used to and started excepting the visual stimulation. SO I had him sit in a chair while using until he was okay with the new sensation. See minute mark 3:33 for video ruclips.net/video/3l3HfNhC2Js/видео.html.
Also, I purchased focus-fixers lenses because glasses were a pain to deal with. I saw one of Peter Holmer's video (who is a great UK youtube influencer). ruclips.net/video/HMAkOK44wi8/видео.html
www.focus-fixers.com/
thank you , that solve my problem connecting V1
Great video, exactly the review i was looking for while wating for my Goggles delivery. I have the exact same set up as you, P4P with HDMI port and an Nvidia Shield K1 with the HDMI port, so i needed to understand what my options are and what cables i may need to get. Thanks !! Cheers !!
One question: So the only thing you were using in the video that is not included in the DJI Goggles kit is the "Full HDMI to Mini HDMI adapter" is that correct ? Is the cable you get included "Full HDMI to Mini HDMI" which you can not really use for anything (with the P4P anyway) without the adapter ? Typical DJI i guess.. Cheers !!
Jon BJ . Correct, only part you need is adapter female hdmi to male hdmi mini.
Thanks for watching and commenting, I have a new vid on goggle usage coming out soon.
Thanks ! i Will keep my eyes open for your next Goggles video, and hoping to get mine within the next week or so...;)
Addy Overbeeke Hi again, One more question if it's alright: Have you noticed any affects on the transmission/range/signal strength for the different liveview options, ie do you loose range when using the HD/1080p mode vs the lower resolution modes.
Cheers
Eureka!!, if you can not connect HDMI module to DJI Goggles, kindly set the resolution of your DJI Goggles to 720 p. If it did not work, reset the camera settings of your P4P, using your DJI Go app. Good luck.
Hi Addy Bill back again. Its been 5 months since I flew!!! I missed it b/c of the cold! But now I'm back. Going to NH next week hope to get some real nice videos. Bill
Good to hear Bill. Check for updates in firmware and that GO4 App is current. Have fun and enjoy New Hampshire.
I have been there many times skiing in winter and hiking and camping in summer. I love the Mt Washington area but there are a lot of flight restrictions because of all the National Parks in NH, so lots of places you can not fly.
Well done on reaching your first 100 - many more to come!!!! Great demo on the DJI Googles - wish I had the money - they look fun. Many thanks for sharing :)
good informative video, wish you the best with the new subcribers, you now have one more keep up the good work!
Thank you for commenting and subbing to my channel. Check out the rest of videos. I should have more Goggle videos coming out soon. Still editing a fishing trip for two weeks ago, and soon afterward the Goggle video I made.
I checked out your channel, very nice. I also sub'd your channel and look forward to seeing your videos as well
Happy droning.
Congrats on reaching 100 subs Addy nice film on the goggles
Thank you Keith, I started just to share drone videos I made for my family and it's nice others share in viewing my channel. I have no goal or expectations to be a big RUclips channel as it's just a hobby.
It will be fun flying with the goggles, it is a very immersive experience as if you were seeing through the eyes of a bird flying around or maybe the cockpit of an aircraft.
Thanks for commenting.
This is a great video Addy, I have passed it on to many other friends to help them out. Kind regards. Karen. ...
Thanks Karen, video is a little dated now that newer models have ocusync making for wireless connections. But I still fly the Phantom 4 Pro V1 which is Lightbridge transmission and still very excellent. No appreciable performance difference to upgrade a V1 to V2 .
Thank you Addy, I too have upgraded my Drone and Goggles to the RV version however your video at the time gave me a great insight in connection possibility’s and especially the K1 shield tablet that I use all the time. Take care and stay safe. Karen x. ..
Thank you for your attention Addy
well done on 100 you are the first one to show how to connect to the DJI goggles. i have a few questions
1 can i connect both HDMI cable and the micro cable at the same time.
2 can you only use the micro lead for the camera head tracking and will the Phantom 4 also do drone tracking ie fly by moving your head.
3 There are so many blogs out there saying the Phantom 4 will not do some of the things like tripod mode and others.can you please confirm what the Phantom 4 can do with the DJI goggles.
Many Thanks from the UK.
The adapter that you have plugged to the controler the one you say they should supply you wouldnt believe how much trouble Ive had finding one any help you could give me would be greatly appriciated.
You work your way to the top 👍
Thanks Kangaroo, appreciate the comment. Thank you for kind words, Happy New Year.
Very helpful video. Thanks !
Happy I could help, Thanks for commenting.
Hi addy, received my HDMI module today from Amazon. Now it connects perfectly with the tablet as well as the dji goggles. It even shows the option of simultaneous output to HDMI and app. If I may request you to kindly mention in your review options that the third option is only viable if you have a remote with a HDMI module installed. Thank you once again.
Hi, the third option is for a tablet that has HDMI output and it does not matter then it RC has the HDMI module installed or not installed. In the third option, only the USB is being used from module to tablet and then tablet to goggles. Hope that makes it more clear. Thanks for commenting and watching the video.DJI is moving away from wire connections as it complicates matters. The new Phantom 4 Pro V.2, the Mavic series included Mavic pro, Mavic 2 pro and Mavic 2 Zoom all are using Ocusync transmission which is all wifi based. But I will keep my P4p V.1 for now as the wires connections work for me.
@@AddyOverbeeke hi Addy, I got your point the first time. I hope you try connecting your HDMI tablet to a RC that does not have a HDMI module installed. Would like to see if you can get the same result because I tried and it failed.
Hi Aarun,
Yes, I have done that many times before. My Phantom 4 RC does not have the HDMI Module, only my Phantom 4 pro.
The HDMI out from the tablet is totally independent of the RC controller. If I were to connect my Tablet containing HDMI out port to a TV (no drone or RC involvement, only tablet, and TV), I get an HDMI signal from Tablet to TV through HDMI cable.
The same is true about HDMI from Tablet to Goggles. As a matter of fact, you can use the goggles to view HDMI from any device (Play Station PS4 for example) to view the video. The same is true from Tablet to Goggles. Noting that the HDMI does not provide control on the touchpad of the Goggles, only the USB connection allows this.
Hope that finally helps. sorry if I am not expaining in a way that is easier for you to understand. Maybe a language translation issue? I travel a lot for work and often see how English does not translate well to other languages. But happy to try to help.
Are you selecting HDMI in the Goggles app to view HDMI? maybe that is the reason? Try using goggles alone with any HDMI output device to see if you are configured correctly.
Howdy... I enjoyed your hookup demonstrations with the various devices. Nice coverage and the information you shared was helpful. Did you ever make a video flying with the P4P, tablet, and HDMI connection from tablet to goggles?
It is very difficult to show the goggles via video to an audience because you are wearing the goggles and just filming me wearing them is boring to look at. However, with a little creative filming and editiing with my limited knowledge of how to make such a film, I made a video about one of the Goggle's feature showing headtracking option for goggles. Checkout that video at this link.

Thanks for commenting, check out the rest of my channel.
Thank you Addy! Great information and very well explained! Exactly the information I was look for! Sub added!👍👍👍
Thank you for compliment. I should have another video out in the next few weeks on Head tracking and other cool features. But I got to tell you, the experience of the video is amazing, so immersive an experience. Just watching a movie is amazing, drone flying is more amazing
@Addy Overbeeke can you please tell me where i can get that piece for the HDMI cable to connect to the controller?
The quick answer is: "DJI HDMI Output Module Part 54" for Phantom 3 Pro and 4, 4 Advanced and 4 Pro V1 and can be sourced with a quick search on the internet. Amazon, Ebay, etc....
I am making the assumption that you have a DJI Phantom 3 Pro, 4, 4 Advance, or 4 Pro version 1 (V1) and not V2.
V1 uses Lightbridge transceiver technology which would require the HDMI DJI goggles connection if you are wanting to simultaneously use cell phone or tablet with DJI Go4 app. As explained in my video prior to V2 sales.
Noting that: DJI goggle USB connection to the RC controller can be done on any of the drones but you would be using the app on goggles and not on cell phone or tablet to control the drone, sacrificing the connection solely for the goggle connection.
V2 uses Ocusync transceiver technology and can communicate wirelessly with the dji goggles....
@@AddyOverbeeke alright thank you so much!!
Thank you Addy, really useful for me. ....
You are welcome. This is an older video now and I have learned a lot about the video editing process. I happy that the information was useful to you. Thanks for stopping by and commenting. I do have another video for the goggles explaining Head-Tracking feature. Please check out some of my later videos.
Thank you Addy will check that one out K x
Thanks for the video, have look at some oter videos and got the ibpnformation that is not working out with P4pro. Good information, thank you.
Are you having connection issues, Let me know what is not working if that is the case and I may be able to help.
Addy Overbeeke Hi thanks for that, i am just investigate for coming purchase. Was really close to skip that before your video. But i will get back to you later if i've problem with that. :)
okay, What I did not mention, because its is required of all DJI products and is the same, once you get the Goggles, you have to register and update the Firmware on the DJI website. very easy .....
Good luck with the purchase. Have fun....
Do you have an increased delay when connecting via tablet HDMI comparing when there is a double connection via transmitter module?
Artem Pogulyayko I do not notice any more latency with tablet out hdmi than that of the hdmi or usb connection from RC controller .
I am testing still and will follow up with video soon.
So far I am really pleased with either set up especially now I solved iPad problem fo missing video feed that had nothing to do with the goggles.
Its not the Phantom 4 PRO demo, but the Phantom 4 only. I have problems to connect the P4P to the goggles.
Hi Roland, because of my experiences with DJI updates and problems that I have had I the past, I now follow a strict protocol regardless of App version and believe I have the latest firmware.
I basically delete the DJI GO 4 App and reinstall new, then download DJI Assistant and refresh/update Firmware on controller and RC. Then shutdown and reboot everything.
For the Goggles, I do the same, there is a DJI Assistant for the Goggles and can be found at:
www.dji.com/dji-goggles/info#downloads
I had no problems connecting, I have a new video coming out soon on P4P and "Head Tracking" with the goggles. these things are amazing. I use to be a FatShark fan, but the dji goggles are a big leap in technology.
After you try all the things I mention, let me know how you made out. BUt be very specific of your issue and the what your setup is. Good luck.
and by the way, you cannot control the drone or the camera with HDMI cable, you can only just look like TV Screen.
Addy, thank you for your tutorial
You are welcome. Appreciate the kind comment. I have more coming, little low right now for Winter weather. Check out some of my other videos, Have a great day.
I do have a scenario that I'm looking for a solution to...I have the DJI goggles AND a P4 pro. I'm wondering how I could fly and monitor a waypoint mission while another person is wearing the goggles and has gimbal control...is that even possible with this setup?
Hi Matt, Using the P4 pro I do not think that is possible. The set-up options are USB with Goggles and having controls using the Goggle's touchpad or HDMI where the Goggles is only getting video feed and no controls while the pilot gets full control using RC controller and Go 4 App on a tablet or cell phone. On other platforms like the DJI Inspire series, Dual RC Controllers and Goggles could perform the scenario you describe.
For the Scenario you explain, the Goggles wearing person could call out to the pilot to pan down or up for the gimbal position as the pilot watches the progress of the waypoint mission? that seems like that would work after a couple of minutes practice co-piloting together.
Hi Andy - Great Vid. Since you had some time since you did this vid would you still go with the HDMI set up or the Shield setup. The reason I ask is with the shield setup you can turn on and off the telemetry. Also, It seems like there are a lot more features on the Go 4 app then in the googles. Such as clearing the video cache.
I like the Nvidia K1 Shield setup, I do not like to take my hands off the RC controller to use the App on the Goggles touchpad. The head tracking that you can do with USB connection is great but Its something you would use at lower altitudes where is mostly how I shot my videos. On the rare occasion, I approach the 400 AGL, but not much detail at that height. I like the mid- 100s and less to show features not seen at more of a distance. Trees and terrain give me personally more security to have flight controls at hand (RC) and not the less exact controls of the head tracking technology. But that's my take, others might have more confidence, I operate more by minimizing risk. I am hoping the next Phantom series model will employ the same 3D mapping as the Skydio R1and then I would feel more confident in head tracking technology . Check out this new drone technolgy ruclips.net/video/scpcG5Re0-M/видео.html
Would a USB hub work for connecting the tablet and the googles into the same USB port?
I have no experience doing that and maybe someone else could provide tested results on DJI's forums, but it is a valid question. My guess is, having two fully separate DJI Go4 & Goggle apps running at the same time being used to Input Goggles's touchpad and head tracking with a tablet (Android or Apple running apps), maybe?....... I would only trust if tested. Someone must have done this before?????
Hello, i have DJI GOGGLES RACING EDITION i try to link to my phatom Phantom 4 Pro+ V2.0 with a remote control with built in screen i tried to conecte it from everywere following the steps and only comes to link it to MAVIC and doesn't show up Phantom DJI GOGGLES RACING , please help me with this.
Try linking the Goggles to the P4P V2 per this DJI video:
ruclips.net/video/ovWoMmre2nA/видео.html
If that does not work, the DJI forum sites is good resource site to post questions. More nowledgable people will be able to help. I do not feel qualified to provide answer to your question because you are operating new P4p+ V2 which uses Ocusync 2 and also the RE version of the Goggles. Should be easy with little research to get an answer, all part of learning and fun for this hobby or business.
excellent explanation and option with SHIELD.
i bought the goggles, thinking i can use it with tablet on p4. DOHHH
Yes, if you want both the Tablet and Goggles to operate at same time, the connection is limited to using both the USB and HDMI (if you have the HDMI Module on the RC) unless you have the Nvidia K1 Shield tablet or the new expensive DJI Crystalsky display. THe goggles use with the Mavic Pro is easy because one can use the USB connection to a cell phone or small tablet , but the Goggles connect wirelessly using DJI's OcuSynce .
THanks for watching and commenting, EnJoy the goggles, they are interesting option to looking at a tablet screen.
trying to connect my googles to phantom 4 and cant get to the hdmi setting in the googles do i have to link the googles to the copter? im using the usb cable straight to the controller to the googles. do i have to activate the googles first please help in steps thanks
Just bought the dji goggles for my p4 and I was curious on the the connect options. This vid breaks it down very nice, well done and I subd! Thanks
Also was wondering is there actually any advantage to installing the hdmi module vs using the usb?
USB connection for Phantom 4 series is only option if you want to fly and operate the features of the DJI Go APP (goggles version) when wearing the Goggles using the built-in touchpad on the Goggles.
HDMI is only a camera view on the drone and you can not control the Go App from the Goggles.
If you want to share the Goggles and fly the drone using a tablet, HDMI to goggles and USB to tablet is required.
For Spark and Mavic Pro owners, the Goggles communicate using Ocusync, so HDMI is not needed and still can use a cell phone or tablet.
Check out my video ruclips.net/video/3l3HfNhC2Js/видео.html to see other use options when using the Goggles
Thanks for Sub' and commenting. Happy droning
Thanks dude
Very informative thank you..
I still dont understand. What configeration for a P4P do I use if I dont have a sheild tablet and I want to fly the drone using an ipad and some else controls the camera withthe googles. I want an "expert" to visually inspect things with the camera whilst I position the drone.
Yah.. that is not going to work. The P4 series does not have Ocusyce lithe Mavic Pro with dual controls and wireless connections to the Goggles. The P4 series can only connect from RC controller to Goggles via USB if wanting to "expert to have head-tracking gimbal control. You would give up the iPad /tablet ability to communicate with the RC Controller. You would have to be good pilot to fly line of site if someone else is using the control funtions of the Goggles (USB). Expert could view Goggles via HDMI and you could fly with iPad via USB.
I have another Video on my channel that I show Head-Tracking functions using Goggles on P4P. Check it out.
Is there a configuration that will allow camera display with flight controls & settings on the tablet, and head tracking camera on the goggles?
I want to let someone else wear the goggles and have control the gimbal / camera; and I will fly with a combination of LoS and the moving camera view on the tablet.
No configuration for the Phantom 4 Pro Brian. I can only get them to have a Tablet view and Goggles view simultaneously when Goggles receive input from HDMI and Tablet from USB. The HDMI will not transmit Head Tracking. But a tablet is really not required to fly. If you are in line of sight and can see the drone to fly while the person wearing the goggles is connected via USB, they can experience the head tracking while the pilot flies around.
There are several Head Tracking functions, one of which controls the camera within the limitations of the camera's gimbal ranges and the other where camera uses gimbal ranges along with steering the drone in the direction of head tracking position( really cool).
The next two I am not sure of because I do not own:
1) The Phantom 4 Pro+ maybe? because the screen is built into the controller and the Controller has a free USB connection for the Goggles.
2) I do not own a Mavic Pro or Spark that uses Ocusynce so again maybe? because the Goggles can connect wirelessly.
Thanks for commenting and watching
Addy, good morning, not wanting to abuse, but could help me, I bought the Goggle DJ glasses a short time, and my altitude via RC does not reach more than 30 meters, I could not find where I can change this altitude of Goggle, as this product is new I did not find any tutorial about it. could you help me in this regard? Thank you very much
Carlos, the 30-meter limitation was invoked DJI to force users to re-sign into their DJI accounts (username and password) thus verifying latest No-Fly Zone (NFZ) updates were installed.
Goggles and DJI Go 4 apps and firmware must be of latest.
After re-sign in of DJI account, the 30 m limitation should be lifted. Note, recheck all you setting and make sure geofencing limitation is invoked (Beginner mode).
Hope my hints/knowlodge helps
There is noch real Information if the pantom 4 Pro plus v1.2 can be conected to the DJI goggles wirless, with cables is OK but to dangerous after about 15 conections after a few fly times the conections on the goggles or the controler start making problems even though we havethe best cables.
So, the it's only in the Phantom 4 Pro V2 that gets the Ocusynce so you are stuck Like I am with wired connections. The Version 1 series is Lightbridge connection.
I have made many mates and de-mates of the connections and no issues with USB micro or HDMI. These are industry standard on cell phones, cameras, etc... The big issue is pulling on the cables once connected and that is why I point out to "strain relief" the cable so not to pull on connectors. I see this with young people that are rough on their cell phones charging cables and wired earbuds. Wired equipment needs to be handled with care and that is why industry is moving to wireless Bluetooth or Wifi connections. Some Cell phones don't even have a place to plug in a headphone jack. I do now have Ocusync of my DJI Mavic Pro and it is nice to have no cables... Thanks for stopping by and commenting, Happy droning...
Thanks! This was a huge help.
Hi Addy, Thank you for your very clear video! I just bought a P4P and DJI Goggles. I am hesitating between buying the DJI HDMI module that is quite expensive or a tablet with an HDMI output. It seems the Shield tablet K1 is disrupted. Would you have another recommended tablet or smartphone ?
Best regards,
Lionel
Hi Lionel, sorry, I would have to do shopping research to find a table that has similar specs as the Nvidia K1 Shield. With its 8 inch screen (perfect for DJI controller) and1920 x 1200 resolution on a powerful gaming quad core 2.2 GHz processor, I would be careful to find something as good. I do see used ones on eBay, mine was actually a factory refurbished unit. But not to worry, the DJI Goggles work best connected with the USB. The HDMI module is the cheapest option at $99 if you want both Goggles and Table at the same time. I would keep shopping around, there must be some good deals this close to the holidays. Happy droning.
correct me if I'm wrong... With the HDMI cable you have the camera and telemetry on the tablet and only the camera in goggles, but you can not control the camera movements/head tracking??
Correct for the Phantom 4 series and Inspire series, HDMI is just a video link.
Any HDMI output from a gaming station, PC or DJI P4P etc.. will video play on the goggles.
The goggles have their own built-in software /firmware. Goggles are controlled from the touch pad (on the right side of the goggles) and the various buttons but control is for the goggles only. A tablet or cell phone would still need to be connected via USB to the to navigate the DJI Go 4 app.
On the other hand, USB is a data link so Head Tracking data is transmitted from Goggles to the RCvia USB cable and then the RC transmits camera movement commands to the drone. Also, DJI GO 4 App is controllable using the Goggles touch pad and buttons. No need for cell phone or Tablet. In fact, in this configuration, the USB port is taken by the goggles do not phone or tablet could be used.
I like the HDMI and the USB combination. Although when I want to navigate the DJI Go 4 App (since the tablet is connected via USB), I have to flip the goggles up to seem my tablet screen to control the App since I only get camera feed from HDMI
Addy, thanks for your video. I have a P4 Adv and do not have the HDMI port on my controller (Only USB and micro USB). I messaged DJI and they said to use the USB port and to be honest I didn't trust their response. After seeing your video it appears that I can use the USB port for the goggles. Do you know if a USB splitter or HUB would allow you to use the goggles and a tablet? TIA
Hi Trey, I had thought about that before but did not test since I did not have a USB data Hub.
The RC controller and the Goggles are USB 2.0 configuration and the quick look I did do showed most USB data Hubs are USB 3.0. One company that sells USB data Hubs is Anker. Not sure if backward compatible with USB 2.0, I think it is? That would be a cool thing to test. Wish I had a better answer for you. In my video, I was communicating the options I had that I feel are most common.
If you do give it a try, let us know how it worked.
Happy New Year.
Congrats man!!!
Thanks William, Appreciate the comment. Check out my channel and I hope you like my other videos. I really have fun with video editing and flying for this hobby of mine.
Addy, just set everything up googles etc. Ya I also would like the telemetry on the googles and on my Ipad mini but like you said I am limited to having both unless i have a device with hdmi out. Bummer. What do you think the best way to fly is if you don't have the shield device? Having the hdmi telemetry on the ipid or goggles? I tend to think using the Ipad might be better in case I get into trouble in the air or landing etc. Would be nice to have both though like you have.
Where did you get the K1 Shield? $$?.............-26 Mt Washington Static temp without wind!
Hi Bill Wow, -26 F that is without wind chill.
I often do not fly using goggles and Nvidia K1 Sheild tablet as the iPad is a more stable Go4 App device than the Android versions. So I always fly using the iPad and RC controller and when I want to use goggles I just use the HDMI output module on the RC controller to get a video feed from the camera. You develop skill very easily flying the drone using the RC controller sticks without looking at the sticks as it becomes an extension of your willing the drone to fly where you want it to go without having to concentrate on stick movement. So viewing the Drone's camera feed is like you are in the cockpit of the aircraft and your stick movements are intuitive to flying and looking at the goggles. If for some reason you want to perform a Go 4 App flight maneuver like "Point of Interest" for example, just lift the goggles momentarily to look at iPad screen and then flip the goggles back down for viewing.
I like this best and not too intrigued with controlling the drone from the goggles. Is probably great for Mavic Pro and Spark pilots because of Ocusync but for cable connections using Phantom 4 series and Inspire series USB to Tablet and HDMI to Goggles works fine.
The Nvidia K1 Shield use to be inexpensive and popular 2 years back when I got it. It still is very popular but manufacturing of the device is limited now and tough to find a good deal because the demand is higher than the supply. Mine was a factory refurbished unit. (I but a lot of electronics factory refurbished, saving money and still getting all the warranty of new). You just have to shop on eBay, Amazon or other to find a deal and availability which come and go often.
Almost New Year. Happy 2018 I hope for all.
thank you
Good evening, can you tell me which adapter you use between the control and Goggle DJI, any reference.
Is it micro USB (male) to HDMI (female)? Thank you very much
Sure, the HDMI Adapter at the RC end of the cable requires a Female HDMI A (full size) to Male HDMI C (Mini).
The other end of the cable at the Googles end is Male HDMI D (Micro), but the included cable has this connection.
If you were to purchase a longer cable, you can omit the adapter and get a cable that had Male HDMI D Micro on one end and Male HDMI C Mini on the other end. I am going to order a long cable so others can where the Goggles and not have to stand to close to me. Let say for search and rescue for example or someone just really would like to see in an immersive way flying above the ground. so many applications.
Thanks for asking.
Very well done. Thanks.
Thanks for commenting
Look for new content soon
Addy. I notice the Fat Shark box on your desk so you have both googles? Can I ask what you like better?
Yes, I have the Fat Shark Dominator V3 and I like the internal Fan for anti-fogging, the lightweight and portability, but the video is inferior to that of the DJI Goggles. They are okay but the one image is split by the two lenses and the field of view viewing angle is less. You see a large boarder around what you are seeing in other words.
I use the Fat sharks more for FPV flying planes and hand built DJI F550 flame wheel.
Thanks for both replies! Nice info. Well haven't flown in a week too cold! Bummer! Preparing for a small party tonight at the house I will introduce my phantom 4 pro to some people. Well got the tend to the apple pie in the oven many thanks for the assist....saw the update on Ken with his mother. Regards.
Rhis is the first vidio iv watch from you but you seam nice.and yeah.so m gona sub to you bicuse you seam like a nice guy
So now you have 172subs yay i wish you good luck bye
OMG if I can't sleep your voice and tone will sort me out in about 8 seconds
great video you solved my problem! all i need is that adapter, can you post where I can get it? Also how about a link to that tablet. Thanks
Bmw Motorcycle Touring , thanks for comment.
Yes, hdmi adapter is www.amazon.com/dp/B00CJH61RI/ref=cm_sw_r_oth_tai_McbgAbXX9PKBF and the Nvidia K1 Shield Tablet is www.amazon.com/dp/B0171BS9CG/ref=cm_sw_r_oth_tai_qebgAbJX0YVHB. The Tablet is more difficult to get these days as it is a popular gaming tablet (high performance graphics) and because it is becoming more difficult to buy.
I bought a factory refurbished unit a year ago at $199 on Amazon, it is considerably more expensive now at $340 ish. I would search around eBay, Amazon and see if you can get a better deal or not. But, it is an excellent tablet for droning and with HDMI out feature, is rare to any tablet out there.
Hi Eddy, Thks for all the info!! What type of usb receptacle is at goggles? Is the feed 1080p . I have the p4p. I THINK I FIGURED IT OUT , I JUST READ GOGGLE MANUAL. THKS AGAIN FOR ALL OF YOUR VIDEOS !!
Hi Ray, It is a micro USB at the Goggles end. The video feed is 1080p for a good distance and past a certain distance (depending on signal strength) the feed goes to 720p automatically. It is hardly noticeable because the goggles' displays are so good. I have the Fatshark V3 Goggles and no comparison, the DJI version is so much better. Although the Fatsharks are a nice size and weight. But for the money, the DJI Goggles have way more technology and options over the nearly same cost of the Fatsharks.
Addy Overbeeke Thks a lot I appreciate it.
I must say I’m not really impressed with the goggles using the USB port to the controller it is not as crystal clear as everyone says it is maybe because it’s not the mavic pro But I thought the only thing difference in the two drones is one is wireless
Hi Richard, sorry for delayed responses to all your recent comments in the past few days, I just got back from Canada where I was "off the grid" fishing with brother and bunch of other guys for past two weeks. Actually, just a week fishing and a week visiting. It is true, the only difference is one is wireless (Mavic pro = Ocusynce and P4p version 1 =USB cable). New P4p version 2 is now Ocusynce. The Goggles are 1080p and 720p depending on distance away from the controller. If you mean not crystal clear, if you are experiencing blurriness (out of focus), like me, I need reading glasses to see crystal clear. I recently purchased Focus Fixers for the DJI Goggles ruclips.net/video/HMAkOK44wi8/видео.html and now I have the perfect solution and convenience without fooling around with glasses. Hope this helps.
Merci beaucoup. Vidéo bien explicative.
Hi Addy. Wondering how Ken is doing? In addition. I just got my Hdmi to mini HDMI but it is the wrong adapter, it's too big for the port on the RC. Looks like I need HDMI to mini USB not mini hdmi. The port is smaller than the adapter i received. But also on the way is a new module that has 4 ports maybe will accept this new adapter into it.
In your video did you mean "hdmi to mini USB or were you correct in saying hdmi to mini hdmi thanks Bill.
Bill, still do not know more about Ken. The Adapter is HDMI to HDMI mini
HDMI Mini Adapter,VCE (2-PACK) Gold Plated Mini HDMI to HDMI Adapter www.amazon.com/dp/B0111HRJT0?ref=yo_pop_ma_swf
Yea that is what I bought. I confirmed it. My problem is the RC does not have that port. But when the new module comes by the 5th I will be able to use it. Thanks from balmy south eastern MA checking at 9 degrees.
Great Info Thanks
Thank you Cesar, appreciate the compliment. Check out the rest of my YT channel. I hope you like that as well.
Thankyou for the information,I still Do Not know if my droht Pantomime pro plus v1.2 is good for Googles wireless Transmission thankyou
I assume the "droht Pantomime" reference is bad spell check for DJI Phantom 4....... Pro Plus . I am almost certain that Phantom 4 Pro you have uses the Lightbridge 2 system (requiring cable). It was not until the Phantom 4 Pro V2.0, when P4P was equipped with OcuSync radio/video transmission technology. THis video is from 2017 and is dated but still relevant for those of use that still use the V1 version of the P4P. Thanks for stopping by and commenting, Happy droning .
I HAD PROBLOMS WITH DOWNLOADING THE SOFT WARE IT ON GOGLES BUT ITS NOT WORKING THATS AFTER I TOOK IT TO DJI CAN YOU GIVE ME SOMETIPS
Try upgrading Firmware using DJI Assistant 2. Check out this DJI Tutorial ruclips.net/video/Crnjfe4ssdo/видео.html
Addy, Good morning, you've helped me a lot, thank you. I have another question about Goggle DJI, when you link the goggle DJI along with my tablet is (Mini 3 apple), you meche in the configuration of the image transmission set, where below the picture appears enabled for image output, but in my does not appear, nothing below the frame, to enable double image output. Also in my radio counter Phantom 4 pro has two outputs one USB (larger) and another micro USB what can be happening. Yours sincerely Luiz Carlos Pannain
Not sure if you are questioning the DJI GO 4 app HDMI enable or the Goggles HDMI enable. Can you provide the minute counter of my video to your question please.
As far as the outputs for the Module, I only use the larger USB and HDMI outputs, I never tried the micro USB or the CAN Bus expansion connector.
Sorry, just for the P4P+. Just make a firmware update to the latest version and now it works. Thanks!
Addy is there anything I can do to set up the googles BEFORE i get the adapter? I notice I have to SET UP the googles the display tells me to get Assistent 2. Or do I need to wait for the adapter? Thax
Yes, you will need to set up using USB to get Goggles registered, latest firmware/software using Assistant 2. You only need Adapter when viewing HDMI, but best connection is USB because then you can fly using RC and touchpad on Goggles. You have no control of the DJI App on the Goggles when using HDMI.
Addy, I have a phantom 4 pro, do I need to connect the RC and the Smartphone first and then after connect the RC to the Goggles? I am confuse
Addy: Q: flying the drone in 5.8Ghz vs 2.7ghz using googles? Seems only 2.4ghz can be transmitted. Was wondering if you had thought about this and what you found? Also (sorry to be a pain) seems you have the RC with the 4 ports including the full size HDMI. Why can't you connect full size hdmi on the RC to the mini on the googles? Just curios as I await for my adapter. Although I ordered the new RC module yesterday (4 ports). Thanks burrrrr it's cold! Minnesota -36!!!!
Hey Bill, the Goggles only work on 2.4 GHz band. It is a really good reliable frequency, here are some technical facts: The higher the GHz the less distance in transmission for the same wattage (power), so 2.4 GHz is best for distance. 5.8 GHz offers less interference, so when in an "RF congested" area this would be a good choice like flying around buildings or structures close by. Each has there advantages at the Drone level. Nothing wrong about 2.4 GHz for the Goggles.
Thanks! I'll switch back to 2.7 ghz. So cold can't fly!! Bummer! Do I dare fly indoors! Never she'll put me out in the cold!
I would not fly indoors, unless in a huge building and you are comfortable flying in Atti- mode. Yes.... way too cold for flying, it's 11:00 AM and only 4 degrees F (and that is without the wind chill effect). I Can not remember it being so cold in Dec. WInter is just getting started. Bummer. There is a lot you can do when inside. THe DJI Go4 App has a flight simulator to practice. I should try if that can be done using Goggles, Hmmmm I'll have to give it a try. Keep warm.
I hear ya. I'm not going to fly indoors just conversation. It's 5 degrees here. I tried the simulator seems cheesy. Does not give me a realistic flight. But for learning the others aspects of the Phantom 4 pro or any other aircraft its ok.
I believe DJI could have done better with this FS..but I'm not complaining JUST WANT TO FLY!
I'm a plumber going out to work in this cold however no frozen pipes yet! I have a picture on my cell phone of a Thermometer of Dec 2015 shows -8. Could be worse. Minn -36!
Well done 😊
I would like to know if the HDMI connection works on the PHANTOM 4 (standard)
Thank you
Yes, it does, If you look at my latest video about the goggles, You will see a chart that shows compatibility with DJI Phantom 4 series. HDMI is a video feed and does not have all the flight telemetry data and DJI GO 4 or DJI GO app . USB is used for that.
Thanks
worked?.....LOL
Thanks Andy 👍
Hi Andy I have a question about broadcasting with Facebook live I have a DJI P4 with the HDMI add on my remote how can I access the DJI GO 4 app menu in the goggles I can see all of the icons at the top but i can't get to them to change them ? on my iPad mini4 I can tap the 4 dots in the upper right corner and then i can tap broadcast live to Facebook but I can't do that on the goggles. thanks for help E.J. Duvail from Texas......
Hi EJ, WHen using the HDMI connection, you only get a video feed for P4's camera and you can not control the Go 4 App on the Goggles touchpad.
If you use the USB connection, you can control the Go 4 App with Goggles touchpad but then you do not have a connection to the iPad.
I would start the Live broadcast on the iPad and then fly. you will not have App control on Goggles but live stream should work.
DJI optimised the Goggles for Mavic Pro and Spark using Ocusync, a wireless connection that does it all.
Happy Holidays
Thanks Andy but i also wanted to know if i connected via usb how can I access the controls with the goggles? the ones at the top of the screen in the goggles?
To access the Go 4 App on the Goggles (connected USB), a double finger swipe down on the Goggles touchpad activates the menu screen. A double finger rearward swipe locks the touchpad and two finger forward swipe unlocks the touchpad. Single finger swipes up, down, back and forward navigate the menu and a single tap selects the option you are in. On the bottom of the Goggles is a back button and function button.
I have a link I would like to share for Tom's Tech Time. Tom is a young German man who is very professional in his videos (A lot better than me) and in this video link goes into great detail about the controls as I would have to write a small book to explain all. Here is the link ruclips.net/video/fhccee-NQ44/видео.html
Do you find on the back where you plug in the HDMI connection that the module gets warm ?
Hi Jeff,
to be honest, I never really touched the module in a way that I would have noticed since I mostly just pug in and remove cables without touching the module itself.
It would not be too unusual for the electronics to get warm but should not get hot as the goggles have their own power source so not a lot of power should be used other than the communications via USB and or HDMI. IF I notice next I use the Goggles, I will feel the module and let you know if there is reason for concern. Thanks for watiching and commenting.
Wa s just reading and viewing online of a couple of guys flying their drone in Golden Gate NP and got busted by the park ranger. He got it on video. What is up with that! Can't fly near airports or among many people and under 400 feet not much more than that. His citation was 275.00! Crazy!
Bill, there are lots of places to fly, but airports, national parks, over large groups of people, certain local places deemed no fly zones, all takes a little research where to fly before going out. Takes 5 minutes. I use Google earth to see what is pf interest and then check out the legality of flying there. In some cases, I might need to contact the airport to get clearance.
I have a video I made from presentation slides I made to teach first responders, law enforcement, general public and drone pilots. Check it out, you will have to pause on the slides to read. But it is all there. USA is still the friendliest Drone country, Canada and others are much more restrictive. I belong to several organizations that advocate for us drone pilots. Important to keep laws sensible. The industry depends on it.
Did you try using the USB option for Goggle connection ?
Interesting thanks for that. No I have not tried USB option.
on the back of my phantom 4 pro controller is a micro USB. So i have to go from an HDMI to USB Micro. Any body have that also?
No, Two configurations for DJI Phantom 4 pro v.1: New v.2 uses Ocysync.
1) Full-size USB (type A) on the RC controller connects to micro USB (type B) on the DJI Goggles for Goggle control assist (Goggle based Go4 App for camera control, head tracking etc.... and piloting Drone with RC Controller.
or
2) Full-size HDMI (type A) on the RC controller connects to mini HDMI (type C) on the DJI Goggles. HDMI only displays Video Feed from the camera that you would see on the DJI Go 4 App using cellphone or tablet ...... and piloting Drone with RC Controller.
Hope this helps, Feel free to ask more if you need more information
Let me see if i have this right, i have a nivdia so I donot net the converter? and can I see both information on the tablet and in the googles
Hi Victor, I have experience with several configurations of Nvidia K1 Shield tablet used with Goggles. One configuration being not having the HDMI Module installed on the RC controller.
In that configuration, not having module mentioned above, an HDMI cable connection between HDMI output on the Nvidia Tablet and the Goggles, the Tablet can be used to navigate the DJI Go4 App and the Goggles show the Tablet's "screen view" real-time. Any data on Tablet view is exactly shown in the Goggles. But, you cannot control the Go4 App on the Goggle's touchpad. Only on the tablet.
I like this configuration mentioned above when sharing the Goggles with someone and I fly the drone by RC with Tablet. However, it is also best for flying when not sharing. Flying and having both goggles and tablet/RC is really good but you need a spotter ( another person) when flying and using goggles per the rules of FAA.
Hi, I am having a little trouble with the setup using both the USB and the HDMI. When I plug in the HDMI I get a black screen on the Goggles and something in the upper left hand corner [MODE ] P-GPS but it disconnects from the drone. I am using an iPad Min. Also not sure if you know this or not but I go the DJI Goggles HDMI (Type a) F...Male adaptor for Inspire 1. I have a DJI Phantom 4 Pro, is this an issue?
Thanks for any feedback.
Hi, so.... no problem with HDMI Module stating for Inspire. I need a little more information. In the DJI Go4 app, did you select "Simultaneous Image Output to HDMI and USB" ( in the HD sub-menu of the app? I know you did select HDMI in the Goggles app correct.
As an added note, if I hook anything up the the HDMI port on the remote, it will disconnect the aircraft, so I could have an issue with the module install in the remote. Here is what I have when I hook it up to my TV:
s3-us-west-1.amazonaws.com/homejarvideos/HDMI+screen.JPG
Then it goes back and forth from Black to this screen.
Well, I got it to work on an android tablet, so I deleted the DJI software on my iPad min 4 and reinstall installed it and now it works as you have in your video. Who Knew?, Thanks for your help, you gave me
somethings to think about, and I thanks you for that.
So, if anyone else is having the same problem, just delete and re-install the software first, it worked for me.
@@homejarpcs4889 Awesome, this is why I love the drone community. The community "gets it" that Drones are a legitimate technology and much of that acceptance is because of an "open forum". Each sharing their learnings and experiences growing the community until it becomes the "new normal". As it is with each new technology tool/gadget and those with previously becoming mainstream. Thanks for sharing your learnings and experiences. please check out some of my other videos on my channel if you like, let me know what you think, thanks again.
Do you think if you have the controller for the Phantom pro + controller with the built in screen, that the built in display will go blank with the USB setup using the googles?
Hi Frankie G. The problem was with the DJI Go 4 running on some Android tablets with version 7.x Nougat.
On August 21 (about a month after I mentioned the problem in several videos I made), Oreo version 8 Android operating system update came out and it solved all my problems on my Android cell phone and Nvidia Shield K1 tablet.
Currently, both iOS and Android devices I have all work well. Every time an update happens by DJI or by Android/iOS, I cringe because I have to test DJI GO 4 App and Drone's functionality all over again to see if the system is stable. But that is technology for you. I get it why its being done, its just a pain sometimes.
To answer your question though, the Goggles were not contributing to the problem so P4P+ should be good.
Great video! I just installed the HDMI Module for my PH4P Obsidian but it's not working properly with or without my RE Goggles. As soon as I plug in the mini Hdmi cable thats running from the headset to the controller, the video feed disappears from my iPhone. I am never able to get a video feed even without the iPhone. When I try to enable HDMI in the headset it tells me that I am not connected and I made sure to enable simultaneous image output to app and Hdmi as well as Display OSD on HDMI Output. Any ideas? Thanks much.
You can test that HDMI Module is working if you connect HDMI Module to a TV to see if you can see the camera Feed on P4p.
Other wise lets see if I can help, but I need to understand more by asking specific questions that may help me to understand because there are several connection configurations and only one works.
a) Is firmware latest on the Goggles? (DJI Assistant 2 v.1.2.3 on DJI.com RE Goggles)
b) You updated the RC Controller after Goggles updated?
c) Go 4 App latest update?
d) You can connect iPhone USB to RC Controller after you installed the HDMI Module open GO 4 App, Turn on Controller then P4p and you are connected with camera view?
e) You then connected HDMI cable between new HDMI Module and the P4p, followed by powering on the Goggles, you selected "Simultaneous Image Output to App and HDMI" (in the HD menu "image transmission" of the Go 4 App)? Followed by Goggles App selection of HMDI. Are you getting an image now for both iPhone and Goggles?
I found the sequence order to make a difference for updating of Firmware and various connecting option sequence issues so I perform in the order on the video and above.
I just tested and I got a 3 second glimpse of a black screen with some telemetry on the tv from Ph4p that says P.Atti top left corner 720P on top right corner with HS VS etc on the bottom like you would see on the app with phone. I found an HDMI to HDMI Mini that I just hooked up so no adapter and it did the same thing! Hmmmmm Also, As soon as I plug the Mini hdmi to the controller, the app turns off!
I would go through the Firmware updates as I suggested and try again. I'm not familiar with RE Goggles but I can't imagine the HDMI connectivity would be different than the regular Goggles, the only difference is the wireless connection for FPV flying from what I understand.
I will do that thanks so much Addy!
Andy, good news :-) I downgraded the aircraft software and then upgraded to the new software and everything is working like a champ! So happy about that thanks again! Jeff
i have the phantom 3 advanced and purchased the hdmi module what other adapter do i have to purchase? i mainely want to use the googles for my litchi waypoint missions so i can enjoy my preset flight. can i do that? i will be usong the ipad mini 4 with it, so basicaly the googles are going to be used as a monitor since i have the older drone do you think the image will be clear
you should be good unless you need the adapter which will make a HDMI cable mini on one end and micro on the other end as I explain in the video. good luck, enjoy.
thanks for fast responce do you have a link for the adapter or whats it called so i can look it up thank you so much
Hi Richard, The cable that came with goggles is HDMI D "micro" to HDMI A "standard".
The HDMI "micro" goes to the goggles and with an adapter, you can go from HDMI "standard" to HDMI C "Mini".
Adapter link from Amazon = a.co/gmYL3kS
Addy, I order the Epson but it is in back order, I also order the DJI Google to try which one will I keep, I have one question when you connect the DJI Google to the Phantom 4, does the home point get updated and you get GPS from what? the Google? since I connect to the RC with the USB. How to do the compass calibration? Is it with the Google or with the phone? Very confuse. Please help
Let me know how you like the Epson AR glasses, I hope to have a pair myself in a couple of months.
The Homepoint gets updated on DJI drones regardless of the tablet, cell phone or Goggles. You actually do not need any of these devices or the GO or Go4 App to fly. The drone has its own GPS and does this automatically.
Now talking about Compass Calibration ( yes the Go 4 is needed but about a year ago it is no longer required to Compass Calibrate before each flight unless the Go4 suggest/prompts you to. I check it by starting my RC, Then my Drone and finally my GO 4 App on Tablet or Cell Phone. If everything looks okay and further intervention is not required (like calibration), then I shut down everything. If I am going to do a Google flight where I want to see and control flight through the Goggles (USB connection), I then start RC, Drone and then start the Goggles. In this configuration, you are not using a Cell phone or Tablet. If it's going to be an HDMI flight I leave tablet or cell phone connected to RC via USB and then start RC, Drone and then Start the Go4 App on phone or Tablet. I then start the HDMI connection turning on HDMI in Go4 App and HDMI in the Goggles' App.
Learning to do so, I practiced and experimented until I got a sequence that worked for me.
There is no way to perform Compass Calibration on the Goggles's App.
Addy, thanks a lot for your good advice and info, I soon as I get the Epson, I will send you my opinion, but somehow there is a delay on getting them, maybe due to the Holiday or a High Demand, who knows. Happy Holiday and Happy New Year.
HI Again - If you do the HDMI setup will you be able to do head tracking?
Hi, no, head tracking only works on P4 and P4p using USB connection
Hi Addy - I am noticed that the Go4 app has way more functionality on my phone than the functionally on the google menu. If you use the Shield set-up are you seeing the google menu or the Shield menu for the Go4 app?
Hi Frankie, Yes Goggles have an abbreviated version of the Go4 App that is made to operate with DJI's drones that are OcySynce wirelessly and non-OcuSync via the USB connection.
When using HDMI from RC Module or HDMI output from Nvidia K1 Shield, the Goggles would show the full function of the Go 4 App (video output only) from tablet after you select HDMI within the Goggle's App.
In this case, you will see the full version of the tablet's Go 4 App display but you can not control the drone from the Goggles Touchpad ( that only works when using USB connection).
So what does this all mean? You see in the Goggles everything you see on the tablet using HDMI. If using USB to control drone via Goggles touchpad, you get only the Goggles version of the Go 4 App which has less capability of the full Go 4 App on a tablet or cell phone but you use can use the Goggles version of the App to control the drone.
I personally like the HDMI and using the tablet.I only use the USB if I want to head-track fly my P4 and P4p.
Thanks Addy nice and clear. I install a module same as yours in my Phantom 4 Pro and all the time when I turn on the sequence of RC > Drone .and goggles The DJI APP tel me on the left up settings on a red triangle needs to install a RC controller firmware not once but every time. Do you known why? In my module does not have a micro sd card slot to do what DJI said. Thank you so much and have a Nice day.
Hi Ricardo, I have to ask so I understand better, did you update the RC Firmware? I can tell you how if you did not.
FYI, only the P4P+ (with built in screen) has the factory installed HDMI module containing the micro SD slot. It also has a full size HDMI port not the mini. So you have same as me, and everyone else the got the module as a add-on accessorie
Addy Overbeeke . Hi Dear, I bought the module with the Hdmi install it on RC P4P and upgrade the firmware , but every time I turn on he say that I need to upgrade the firmware again. When done I can use normal, when I turn all off and day after I turn it on he say that I need to upgrade again. Thank you for your Reply. Very kindness.
Interesting, so let's try something to get more information:
1) Power on RC, the P4P, and start the Go4 App. On the upper right of the App's start screen you will see 3 short horizontal bars, tap/hold the bars for several seconds and release. A menu should appear that will allow you to check the firmware version. Write this down for reference later.
2) Perform the firmware upgrade using PC or Mac computer with DJI Assistant 2 from DJI.com (software on the P4P web page). After the firmware is updated reboot everything and follow any instructions on continued P4P updates if prompted to. again with reboot if further update was required.
3) Again, on the startup screen check the firmware version again as instructed in step 1 above. Is the firmware the same version or now a later version?
Here are some video links to perform the firmware on RC, P4P and Goggles for reference:
P4P, RC :

Goggles:
ruclips.net/video/Crnjfe4ssdo/видео.html
Note, I like to delete and reloaded the latest Go4 App before Firmware updates ( I have had better luck way)
Let me know how you made out..... This is a good thing to learn as updates are part of the droning experience unfortunately. I think of it as a maintenance task as part of the droning experience. Actually kinda fun once the steps are learned and practiced a few times.
Dear Addy I read something on DJI forum (link Page) forum.dji.com/thread-74193-1-1.html(
I can also confirm the HDMI module does NOT work on the P4P remote controller. You can install the HDMI module with no issues (ribbons still connect in same places they should into the board) but when powering on the remote controller, I get a red dot and Disconnected in the App itself.)People are waiting for an new update for this. I delete and reload the DJIGO 4 like you said and nothing happened. I loved your support, you are a very kind person, I would like to wish you many happiness and great moments in your life. I am 68 years old and live in Rio de Janeiro Brazil. But I'm going to switch the module to the original that came with my Drone and wait.
Hmmmm...... I do not have a problem with my P4P, I do not believe everything I read on those threads. I got lead down the wrong path a few times so I try to solve myself
can you tell me the name of the hdmi adapter you had to get...like the company name and part number...thanks
also can you tell me the name of that table..like it said shield..do you have anymore info on it...thanks
Sure it is the Nvidia K1 Shield. Not sure if in production anymore. They are hard to find new and are well sought after. so they are around $390, I paid less for a factory refurbished unit and I absolutely love mine but for the money, I think I would spend a little more and get the DJI Sky Crystal.
There are more choices today. search for Tablet with HDMI out if you can not find the Nvidia Sheild K1.
I boought through Amazon, link to the part below.
www.amazon.com/Adapter-VCE-Converter-Camcorder-Devices/dp/B01HYURR04/ref=cm_wl_huc_item
I installed the HDMI module on my Phantom 4 PRO transmitter (Box says Phantom 3...purchased direct from DJI) and this is what I am getting.....once I plug the mini HDMI on transmitter, the USB connected to my Ipad Mini 4 stop working and says "disconnected".
I only get the OSD on my separated monitor via HDMI and it is on and off, no picture.
If I plug the DJI goggles on the HDMI...it cancels "disconnect" the USB as well and at same time the goggles also says "disconnected" and nothing is displayed.
-Yes, I selected to simultaneous image output to app and HDMI and selected HDMI on DJI Goggles as well. DJI Goggles will only work on USB (transmitter) to micro USB (Goggles).
-Yes, I did update the transmitter firmware after installing the module
I wonder if I got a bad HDMI module or simply will not work on Phanton 4 PRO...any ideas? I see that the first set up you had your iPad image is on and off and have green bars...I had that problem and it went away after the firmaware update you must do after installing the Module.
Hi Ed, My latest update did correct the green bars and everything is working well. I will be making a video this extended holiday weekend using the goggles.
But let's talk about your set up and see if we can resolve.
First, the DJI HDMI module you have is the same I have. The box does say P3, but before I had ordered, I contacted DJI support and they said it was the only module they have and it is compatible with the P4P. I was skeptical because the new P4P+ has a different Module containing a micro SDcard slot and full-size HDMI port. DJI stated that was only for units with built in screen and not available for separate purchase. So you are good on that.
Reading through your comment above, You have done everything correctly.
The big problem for you is the disconnected issue. I suggest two things 1) reconnecting each of the 3 flat cable connections one more time to ensure good connection exists and see if the problem remains. 2) this will sound silly but it resolved other issues in the past for me, delete the Go4 app off of you tablet and perform and new install. I have found the updates not to to be consistent with the full install as if it were your first install of the app. Let me know if that corrects the problem. If not, I will make the effort to retrace my install and setup and see if I can offer any further advice just to make sure you did not miss something. I will have more time on the weekend look at the possibilities for you disconnect issue.
Hello Andy, yes I actually had re-intalled the ribbons twice .....they were nice and neat at firt time but I did anyway. I contacted DJI...tech said the problem may be the module...or the Remote Control ( what else right?) so I returned the module to DJI...hoping to get another one in 3~4 weeks (rolling eyes) and pray that the problem was the module and I don't need send the Remote Control to DJI...which is also one week old.
Sorry to hear that Ed, It's not your fault and I share your frustration. But you should know the Module and the RC are designed to work together and both are OEM, so it's not like you are trying to get some third party part to work. In my good fortune, both were good and it was an easy install and every thing worked. A later software update fixed my green bands on the tablet. You will get there and will be enjoying the Goggles soon I hope. Let me know you made out Ed.
Have the same problem and its a known issue with no resolution at this point. I'm sending the remote to DJI for repair. I've tried everything.
I have the same problem, I installed the HDMI module on my P4P without problem, the DJI Goggles works well on USB port, but not on HDMI port. I sent RC to DJI and I still expect an answer.
Great video, it got me farther than any other video so far. One change, you say that the adapter is an HDMI to mini, it’s actually an HDMI to micro. At least on my phantom 4 pro. The other problem I am having is in my HD settings The interface is a little different. It has no enable settings like yours does. The goggles do but when I select it it says it’s disconnected. I am updated to the latest version. Any help.
Hi John, Thanks, I made this video almost two years and some things have changed for sure. Can you provide me with DJI drone type and are you using Andriod or IOS device? Also, what version Go4 App are you using? And I can see if I can help you.
There has been much improvement with P4P V2 that use Ocusynce 2.0 which builds upon wireless communication of Mavic series and now is available on Mavic 2 pro and zoom. But for the rest of us still using the P4 and P4P V1, the Lightbright communication requires the wire HDMI or USB connection. Nothing wrong with wires but more to configure making for a little more difficult for the inital setup.
I bought a phantom for pro, but sold the controller and bought the one without the monitor because I needed to use Litchi software because it has a much better waypoint capabilities and you couldn’t use it with the built-in monitor. So I use an iPad with my P4P I don’t think there’s a difference in the helicopter itself. Do you think it is an android vs IOS issue why I don’t have that option.
I also have a Mavic air and I am having the same problem. Cannot use both goggles and the iPad.
I am using 4.3.17 for my DJI GO 4 app. On an iPad.
Hi John, I don't want to assume but was your P4P+ a V1 or newer V2?
Also, doe the new RC remote controller (without built in-screen) have the HDMI module? In order to have goggles work with Ipad tablet, the tablet uses the USB cable at the same time the Googles are using another cable, the HDMI cable (two cable system)
If you have the HDMI Module installed, make sure you update the Controller's Firmware from DJI.
Hi again Addy. Just got my dji googles. Can't connect without an adapter (stinks) I have to Phantom 4 Pro the controller has only the mini hdmi with a standard USB port. Seems I have to go get an adapter like the one you show on this video. I wonder if they have them locally like at Walmart can see waiting for Amazon to deliver such a small item. I'm other wise excited to use them!
I am almost certain a Walmart would have the HDMI adapter.
I wish it were not so cold out this week I have off from work, I want to fly and make videos. I will usually go if above 30 degree F, but the warmest it got today was 19 degrees F. Next few days are going to be even colder out here in the Berkshires. Burrrrrrrrrrr...... Congrats Bill, you can do a lot with goggles inside, wat a movie, fool around with DJI Go 4 App and learn all the touch commands ( Use the USB connection to practice.. it will develop muscle memory for the touchpad controls)
Happy Holidays.
Happy holidays to you as well. I ordered at Amazon the adapter will be here Friday. I also ordered a charging dock. Guess what. The charging dock I just got today (3 batteries for Phantom 4 Pro) did not fit into the dock at all! I couldn't believe it with all the high reviews. I returned it got another type.
Ya it's cold...real cold I dough the phantom would fly very long...certain to get an alert warning and its too cold anyway.
I also bought adobe editing software to edit my videos and photos. Love this hobby already sinking big bucks into to though but it I see it as a hobby that has infinite possibilities.
Nice Mt Wash shots. I was there 3 years ago.
Yes, really nice hobby indeed. I know a lot of friends that have a boat for fishing, or restore old cars or belong to a golf club or are into cycling, all are expensive hobbies and droning and video editing does not seem too expensive when I see how much others spend. It is all relative. Now that I have my FAA Part 107 license, I will see if I can turn my hobby into income by starting to do real-estate videos and maybe some golf clubs that I drone each hole going flying down the fairways from each tee-off to the green. The possibilities are endless.
I also am on the SAR Drones (sardrones.org) website for volunteer Search and Rescue (using drones) where you can be in a database and can offer help in certain circumstances. All pretty cool stuff.
too bad about the charger.
Wow never thought of that rescuing stuff! See Ken Huron on YT. This guy is about the funniest guy. Check out the YT video where his drone has a baby!
and he delivers it!!! funny stuff.
Well stay warm its a long winter but i will look for the first chance to go droning again! I want to fly just above the water on a pond or lake without going into the drink.
Just heard from YT Ready Set Drone and Dana that Ken Heron was in a Car accident and is hospitalized.
He had gone up to New Jersey to see his Mother during the Christmas holiday. I have been following Ken for a long time and his famous musician friend Dana. I hope the best for Ken.
Do you have any idea the phantom 4 distance with the DJI goggles?
Distance is same as if using a tablet or cell phone with a remote controller. The Phantom 4 and Inspire series drones use Lightbridge technology for connection and the Goggles communicate through the wired interface via USB. HDMI option is just a video feed from the controller or a compatible tablet via HDMI cable.
If you were using the Mavic Pro or the Spark, the range is little less than Lightbridge because the Goggles would be using wireless built in connection known as Ocusync. I'm not sure what the Mavic Air uses for transmission but I believe to use the goggles its the USB wired connection.
Addy Overbeeke THANK YOU FOR YOUR HELP!! I bought the goggles and trying like crazy to figure how to use the goggles touch pad on the side!! It’s been raining so much here, I haven’t been able to fly!! So I have been watching a lot of videos on how to work the goggles and so on!! Do you have goggles?
Yes, I have the Goggles,
Check out DJI Tutorial for touchpad (see Link below)
ruclips.net/video/4f7NtdXDoGQ/видео.html
I have another video on the Goggles on my YT channel for Head tracking (see link below)
ruclips.net/video/3l3HfNhC2Js/видео.html
If you have any specific questions let me know. The weather here has not been good for flying as well.
Working on some other videos,
Goggles are great but its a pain to have to another person be there when flying (Spotter). Often I fly alone. Check out the rest of my videos if you get a chance. Thanks for watching and commenting
Addy Overbeeke last question I’m sorry for so many... but is it possible to change to the live view in the goggles to H/D ? I watched a video from DJI and the spokesman said you cant? But I thought that a new update may fix or enable this?
Happy to help. Live view has 1080 HD and 720 HD at different frame rates for smoothness vs quality. I have a link below (one of many I have from the research I use to do when I first got the Goggles myself), It starts @ 4.11 minutes into the goggle menu's overview. ruclips.net/video/oepKt01b7rw/видео.htmlm11s
first before this video - attention - you have to calibrte the goggles...i struggled it out after 2h...thanks for dont say that...well pro
Sorry to hear and good to know, learning from drone community. I'm no pro, but rather just sharing my experiences. I was fortunate not experiencing having to calibrate, they worked right away after making settings in Apps. But good to know, thanks. Are you getting much use with them?
@@AddyOverbeeke sorry i was little bit frustrated, withe goggles with black mavic no problem, just plug & play, but white goggles with white phantom 4 is plug to computer, download assistant 2 ( not assistant 2 mavic or assistant 2 phantom, just the normal assistant 2) then turn the goggles on and...my one gets not connected, the software in the goggles stock at "searching assistant 2 on computer" after 1 min it fails.
in the windows taskbar i saw that the CDC Serial is missing there to connect the goggles with windows, maybe thats a dll fail from dji i dont know, at the moment the battery is charging from 19pm to now 3:30 am and its not finished, after its finished i will try it with full battery to connect again. the first try was the unbox one with the retail battery charge what is 2 LED's. yet i didnt tried the HDMI cable to only watch movies or some because i unboxed, looked the connection and now loading, just first day :D bought yesterday
@@wolfgangmerneg5277 That's been a problem for most, but it's getting better since my older version in my video. The newer OcuSync 2.0 is an improvement and it's all wireless. Expensive to try to keep up with new variations and how fast they come out for DJI. I usually upgrading only for evolutionary changes P3s going to P4p, waiting for P5 which is going to be nice long wait.
@@AddyOverbeeke yes, thank you. and at the end we love dji :D see you in your video's thumbs up
Confusing
Can you help me?
I installed the HDMI output module on my P4P RC Controller so I could output to the HDMI for a guest to view the flight using the RE Goggles. I am getting weak connection pixilation and green screen blocking on my iPad mini. Is there a fix for this?
I have updated the firmware on the RC controller and refreshed the firmware on the drone. When I activated the goggles, I believe there was a firmware update that was applied too.
I would delete the Go 4 App and reinstall fresh/new Go 4 App. you will have to sign back in and then see how it is. If still the same, download Assistant 2 from DJI website and Update the Drone, Controller, and Firmware one more time. I have had this problem several times when updates are pushed. I go through this routine and it corrects the pixelation and green bars. Good Luck.
Most informative, you’ll have many thousands of followers before long, just look at Ken Herron,.
Kind of you to say. I'm not in the same league as Ken. He is a professional. This is just a little hobby for me. but you made me smile. Subscriptions to me is rewarding to know I get to share more people with my passion of this hobby and awesome perspective from how I view my world. Thanks for commenting . Really appreciate it.
Can I use any tablet with hdmi out for the third option or does only the shield k1 work?
Yes, any tablet with HDMI output that can operate the DJI Go 4 app can stream to DJI Goggles. Just make sure in the Image Transmission Settings (HD icon), the "Simultaneous image to HDMI and app" is enabled (turned on).
I used the K1 Shield only for an explanation because that is what I have. There seem to be more tables available now with the HDMI output. I was just using my goggles this past week with my son. They are great, but when it is hot outside, they are a sweating machine LOL.
Addy Overbeeke thanks for all the information...I live in a cold place in North India.
We have cold winters with Spring and Fall seasons, so except for the 3 months of summer, most of the year it is comfortable here to wear the goggles, but wow when it is hot out they are uncomfortable to wear. I wish DJI had incorporated a fan like my Sharkbite Goggles have. Happy droning Aarun.
Addy Overbeeke please tell me where is the image transmission settings (hd icon) ? Thanks once again
With the DJI Go 4 app is open/running, look to the upper right corner and you will see three dots. Open the menu that the 3 dots are associated with and the "HD" icon should be the 4th selection down from the top icon, just below the icon of the RC Controller icon. Touch/open the menu within HD icon and you should see the "Simultaneous image output to HDMI and app" option that is shown at minute mark 2:23 in my video.
Remember, HDMI is only a video transmission showing the view you see on the tablet's screen. You will not be able to control the drone (head tracking, flight modes etc...) from the goggles, that would require you to use USB connection. See my video about that at ruclips.net/video/3l3HfNhC2Js/видео.html.
The nice thing about the new Phantom 4 pro V2 is that it uses a different transmission call Ocysync like the Mavic Pro and no cables are required. But, not worth the cost to upgrade for me, so for now, I do not mind the cables, I am used to them.
Too monotone, couldn’t stay with the video. Sorry bro.
I subscribed to your channel simply because you pronounced DJI properly, not D Gee I. 😎
thanks for sub, Yeah it is difficult to say "DJI" and not having it sound like "DGI"..
Hope to have the follow up video out soon.
very confusing and ultimately worthless. The DJI 4 v20 is a wireless setup with goggles and he never even talks about it. I think he travels to much
Yeah, this video is old now and was made when only the P4p version 1 was available which is a light bridge connection. The new version 2 uses the. Mavic's series ocusynce wireless, which is nice. I currently am working in Dubai, but when I get home will add the Version 1 to the title. Thanks for mentioning.
Boring get to the point
Sorry, It was my first attempt to talk in my videos and have since learned to just that, get to the point for information videos. Other videos I am trying to tell a story but sorry it is boring for you. Try some of my others to see if they might be more appealing or not. Thanks for watching and commenting.
