- The Goggles 3 and Motion controller 3 are compatible with the Mini4 Pro. But is it worth running out to buy them? or is it a bit of a gimmick?

Hello Justin! Very nice videos, keep the good job up! you got my Sub. Just got my own Avata 2, been flying alot of Fpv racers 7 years ago when analog was the only thing we had.
Hey! Thank you! Very nice, the Avata 2 is so easy to live with I find myself pulling it out much more often than any other of my FPV drones. Haha yeah analogue is always good fun. Digital is just out of this world
Great detailed set up which can seem complicated and thankfully found pretty simple - must try this out on my Air 3 - many thanks for sharing the info Justin
You're welcome Shaun! Yeah try it out and see what you think! 😃
I’ve been itching to try this setup mainly for those times when bright sunny days make the display difficult to discern little details, but I’m also a minimalist guy.
This is something I hadn't thought about to be honest. I don't tend to struggle to see the screen too much though so for me it's not too much of a concern. But it appears a few people are seeing this as a benefit as they find the screen hard ot see sometimes. It does add another peice to the kit and will make it a bit more bulky to carry around though, you're right there! 😃
Have the complete setup, plus an Air3. I also find the limited functionality of the modes disappointing, but when the ambient light makes the RC2 controller screen near useless, it’s great to be able to fly like being a miniaturized pilot up in the cockpit looking out the window flying IFR
out of curiosity...have you tried the no-glare screen protector yet that they sell for some cell phones? I was contemplating on finding one to see if it helps with the glare on the RC2 screen. It's similar to a standard screen protecting glass, except is has a matte finish instead of glassy.
Yeah there are a lot less fetures available when using the goggles. I also hadn't thought about the glare on the screen, mainly because I don't tend to struggle seeing the screen but it seems that quite a few people do so this could be a solution. 😃
Good video! Thank you
Thank you! I'm Glad you enjoyed it 😃
good video, thanks
Thank you! 😃
New Subscriber my friend and Great video❤❤❤
Great video buddy,and I've just subscribed 👍🏾
I have the mini 4 Pro and the integra goggles,and they work just as the goggles 3 with its motion controller.
I just don't get why DJI haven't given the feature to use the rc2 controller with the integra goggles..not good as myself and im sure thousands of others would like to do so.
Wake up DJI
Integra goggles and rc2 compatibility.thank you in advance.
And Goggles 2!
Hey! Thanks Buddy, Welcome to the community!
Yeah I think it's do to the cross compatibility with O3 and O4, in some instances you cant mix certain controller/goggle/drone combinations. I'm sure it's technically possible with software but I don't think Dji feel it's worth the work I suppose.
Great video thank you! I was just gonna ask you yesterday if you have tried the googles 3 with mini 4 pro yet, then you dropped this video haha! Awesome timing! So once you have set up goggles with mini 4 pro and you want to use them with Avata 2, does it just connect seamlessly same as when you turn off the motion 3 and turn on RC3, it just detects it and connects with no hassle, you don't have to go through all the procedure again do you please? Bit confused about the binding part.
@ukmonk haha im reading minds again 😅 Yep you're absolutely right there, once it's bound it's bound, just power on and it should auto connect if the goggles are in Mini 4 Pro mode
@@JustinBainbridgeYT Awesome! Thank you so much! Will try this today!!
OK tried it out so thank you and works great! Only thing I am confused about is the binding?? Says I can use goggles for 5 times I think with mini pro 4 then I have to bind them to mini pro 4? So you cant use one pair of goggles for 2 drones I dont think! I will look into this but think this is what it means!
Hey Justin I have flown the DJI Avata (1) in manual mode for a while, but I haven’t flown over water yet. I’m scared to do it, but not because of my lack in skill but the yaw tumble (the yaw tumble with the Avata 1 flips it completely and you lose all control). It has happened to me a lot even when doing slow and smooth turns. I know what causes it and I know how to avoid it but it just seems as the Avata 1 still yaw tumbles a lot. How can I get the confidence to fly over water and do you have any extra tip about avoiding the yaw tumble? I have watched both your video about the yaw tumble and flying over water, yet I’m scared it will happen while just doing a normal turn..
Hey!
I do understand your hesitation to fly over water especially experiencing the Yaw tumble. I still experience the tumble from time to time but I know when its likely to come so I'm prepared to recover. With flying over water you need to be fully confident flying the drone. Smooth sweeping turns should avoid the tumble as long as you're not putting in too much yaw control and flying through the prop wash. But the main point is not to do anything you are not comfortable with. Whilst pushing your flying ability is always good, it's not worth losing a drone for over water. I'd reccomend you get really familiar with the drone and when it's likely to tumble and when you're comeoftable with it and can predict it before it happens then you should be good. But with water its just a case of being high enough for you're own risk level. If you're not comfortable, start out high with lots of room to recover. Then as you get more comfotable you can reduce the height.
Thanks Justin this was a question I've been asking myself and i think I'll save up for the Avata 2 ...I really wanted to get an fpv done but I get motion sick using my son's Playstation VR so I took the safe route and got the mini 4 pro (super happy with it) as I knew I'd have 0 issues with it. Do you think someone like me would be able to do FPV?
You should be okay with FPV. VR tends to make you feel much more motion sickness than FPV from my experience. As long as you just keep still and don't try to move your head around with FPV goggles on you should be fine. After few uses the motion sickness tends to subside anyway for most 😃
@@JustinBainbridgeYT thank you so much
Nice 1 Justin
Thank you!
I think the goggles 3 are great when its really bright and hard to see with the RC2 (unless you have shade or a sun screen)
Yep this is a good point! I hadn't thought about this, mainly because I don't tend to struggle seeing the screen but it seems that quite a few people do so this could be a solution. 😃
The video out from goggles to a phone with the fly app, is handy if want to let someone look through the goggles while you fly.
I like to use the goggles to see where I’m going, rather than a screen with glare.
I’m not too bothered about FPV, I always fly to record the surroundings, and enjoy a bit of head tracking.
Where was this shot ? I see rice fields similar to Thailand where I live. 🙏
@jameskelly9579 Yeah I often use the video out too to show people on the phone. Yeah that's fair enough, I don't have too much problem with the screen but it seems a lot of people are struggling with the glare. Maybe my screen protector is helping with that. This is in Ubud Bali. Oh cool! Where abouts in Thailand is that? I'm coming back to Thailand for the winter months 😃
@@JustinBainbridgeYT hi Justin, I live in Chiang Mai, but I'm currently on holiday visiting my family in bonny 🏴 Scotland, the scenery is epic.
I don't do too much low level flying what with all the inaccessible muddy rice fields should I crash 😄
Hey your good in front of a camera, so keep up the good work 👍
@jameskelly9579 That's awesome! Yeah, there are some stunning spots in Scotland! Ah thanks you! 😃
Cool! ✔️
If I buy the Avata 2 , can I buy a 2nd set of Goggles for my Grandson to watch as I fly ?
Yep, this is possible using Audience mode on the Goggles 3. You need to have the same goggles. I.e you can't spectate using G2 whilst flying on G3, this might come later with the O3 update, but only time will tell. But yep, long story short, no problem!
Gimmicky? I’d say that all depends on what you are using it for. If you are getting it for taking photos and have vision issues In reflective lighting situations, it could be a great tool. Sir you’re into FPV so it may seem gimmicky. I got the Mini 4 pro & goggles for photography, not FPV, because, the FPV does not have as good a camera, which matters a lot. I think it is very much important to know THAT difference, especially for the variations of what a person is utilizing the drone/goggles for. The avata’s camera isn’t as good, and it lacks a few features that the mini 4 pro has.
I would love to have both...both have their strengths for sure, but they are very different birds.
This is very true and something I hadn't considered at the time. Personally I don't have much trouble seeing the screen but I also don't tend to fly a lot in the mid day sun. However it appears that quite a few people do have trouble seeing it sometimes and in that case this could definitely be a massive improvement for seeing what you're doing with the Mini 4 Pro. I was approaching it at the angle of someone wantin g to use the mini for fpv purposes but it's interesting to look at this angle too. Thanks for the insight and your comment 😃
@@soundbeast4957 Totally agree with you there. Both different machines for different purposes and both strong in the respective use cases 😃
@@JustinBainbridgeYT heck ya! I want one of each lol. It’s easy to compare a mini to another mini…but FPV and a Mini is like comparing a Racecar to a Sedan. They have their own qualities. A racecar is fast, and is made to be fast, no fancy stuff. A sedan is great for a chill ride, made for comfort, lots of upgrades to make it better from the previous model. I would compare the high end cines like limousines. Theirs ag drones whit are the crop dusters, the enterprise mapping drones are the utility trucks, because they do surveying and mapping. ❤️ each unique in its own way. Oh dear, I think I might have dropped a movie line (madmax)
@@JustinBainbridgeYT I actually had great vision previous to this muscular condition starting to fester. Now there are times I have some challenges when the light is just a bit too bright. Shades and umbrellas have become a great companion ❤️ lol. It’s necessary to have a sense of humor when your body starts having issues.
I have a mini 4 pro and Avata 2, so It's nice to be able to get some compatibility between everything. But your settings are completely gutted compared to the standard RC menu. Using an unbound device may also disqualify you from redeeming a DJI care refresh.
Couple that with the fact that G3's still don't work with air units, and there is absolutely zero reason to go out and buy a pair. Beyond use with an Avata 2 they are basically a toy right now.
Yeah there's a lot missin in the menu, It should still be okay for care refresh as the drone is linked via SN and shouldn'e be affected if you're using the goggles. But I may be wrong there. I'm also looking forward to O3 compatibility so I can just carry around 1 pair of goggles. I have to carry so much stuff at the moment to keep everything flying so I'm looking forward to lightening the load.
Can you switch to vertical?
I couldnt find the option to rotate to vertical in the goggles
Is this also possible with mini 3 pro???
@@pR0BlemZ6 nope, the Mini 3 pro is not compatible
Do me a favour and do a video on making videos and adding music and stuff.
I've just re-entered the world of video making following many years away and also using a drone.....bought a Samsung Galaxy Book 4.....but having a nightmare finding decent video editing software and how and where to get decent music and sounds from.
I was going to use Capcut but this doesn't seem to want to work on the Galaxy Book 4....it opens and then immediately closes itself.
Really could do with advice about where to get the best music from.....I was going to use Artlist but they want £256 up front which is steep when your just starting out.
Hey! I have been asked this a lot and am trying to find the best way to tackle the video because people are using lots of different devices. I always reccomend a good Laptop or computer for editing as it makes the process much easier. I'm not familair with the galaxy book 4 but you could try Adobe Rush. It's a free video editor for Android. I use Artlist for my music and SFX and just have a montly plan at £13 per month. You can choose a monthly plan so you aren't tied in for a year if you don't want to be. Finding good copyright free music away from service like artlist and epedimic sound etc is very difficult and the music is normally not that great.
@JustinBainbridgeYT
Thanks mate, I tried signing up to Artlist last night but the only option I was presented with was for an annual bill of £256 ....there was no where I could select it to monthly.
I'll have another look tonight after work.
Thanks.
Interesting test.
👍🐾🐈⬛👏🍻
Thanks Chris 😃🚁🫡🍻
2:47 it looks like a video game
Haha yes it does 😂
Very much not a gimmick
Is it so difficult for dji to screen mirror the RC2 to the goggles 3 so you can use all functions of the mini 4 pro ?
WAKE UP dji........For now just a gimmick.........
This would be a handy feature, maybe the could tether it via USB like you can with your phone? Would be nice to see but I doubt we'll get much in the way of updates for this going forward
