I tried this with the Mavic FPV APP and was impressed. I also tried on a friend's DJI goggle and was surprised that it wasn't nearly as good as I expected. Thanks for the tip. You saved me a boatload.
Dude! You just saved me $430. I was thinking of getting the DJI Goggles today, and during my research found this video. I use the Litchi app exclusively, but never used the FPV mode like you described. Ran down to Walmart and purchased some goggles for $17 and it works like a charm. Thank you, Brother!!!!
Don’t think I ever commented but I paid for litchi a couple years ago after watching this video. I’ve never needed the app but it’s super cool especially for the fpv and the mission flights. I noticed that the vision position still works great with it too.
I too have both and the litchi gives a similar effect but it's like comparing a scooter to a motorcycle. Yes, they are the same but there are limitations. Dji goggles also has head tracking which controls the gimbal also flight direction if you want it in that mode. You also can hook up any source with an HDMI out to the goggles. I hooked up the XBox to the goggles. That's a pretty sick feature. Also, it's like looking at an extreme high end tv in the goggles
I used Litchi for ages and was thinking to myself haha I saved lots of money and im gettin gthe same great stuff. However when I put a pair of DJI goggles on my jaw hit the floor and I said..... noooooooooooooooo.... and threw away Litchi and use the DJI goggles like crazy. You need to know the difference between the two so you can decide what your comfortable with quality wise. DJI is just 5x the quality of picture and makes your flying happier. The difference between litchi app and DJI goggles is like watching a pirate movie on a video projector and saying "yeah this is ok" and then stepping seconds later intio a IMAX theatre and seeing 4k crispness and details. It makes you feel like you are there more. Nice video bud. Keep em coming,
I only fly Litchi for my phantom 3 advanced. I used the DJI ap for the first 30 days. A friend told me about the Ap - Litchi and I bought it!! Never went back to DJI's Ap. Ive read about DJI's Ap being "buggy" and full of updates etc etc etc . Ive NEVER EVER had a problem with Litchi. I too have the cheap $50 goggles and use my android phone and it all works awesome for what I do. The sun has been a huge problem for me because of the glare (without) the goggles. Now I just strap on the $50 goggles and I have no glare. So Now I'm ready to get the mavic drone...a friend of mine says I should get the new AIR Mavic. Ive been researching and watching what people are saying about the Mavic Air. To be honest, I'm not sure I really like the Mavic Air. Yeah it does have the obstacle avoidance, But Ive been flying my Phantom 3 advanced with no obstacle avoidance at all. Not sure what to get... anyone have any thoughts... I like the flight time of the mavic pro vs the mavic air. Thoughts???
Im realy amazed by what i see..i didnt even imagine this exist..thanks..great channel..im fan ;) Question: Can i juse it on my Mavic Air 2, or Spark ? That would be great..reaction pls. ...thank in advance
Clever! Gives me some things to consider as I get ready to purchase my first drone. I loved the dry humor in the beginning! Totally my style. In my experiences, it requires a higher level of IQ to get that kind of humor.
Great video,Thanks for posting.Watching this in 3/20 .Waiting on delivery of a mavic mini,hoping some of this can carry over to that model. I fly fpv quads,getting the mini as a travel cam of sorts
I just discovered the same thing yesterday. I have been flying by finding a shady spot where i could see my phone was going to get a crystal sky 5.5 x 5.5 , i do have the googles, just need to get Litchi, maybe wait till spring getting cold here. i will still use the wireless feature to connect , don't want to damage my charge port, i hate "C" usb, its already really a lose fit. the cable could drop out. the wireless is more resilient.
Thanks for your video. I have what looks like that exact same VR headset only rebranded with a different name. I was wondering they same thing you were and if it would work.
You wouldn't need to worry about yanking the phone out if it was auto returning home or anything like that....Just hit the pause button on the controller and you should be fine. Plenty of time to do what you need to. Or hit the return home button on the controller to cancel. That is unless it's landing due to low battery, then your just screwed haha
I like the Vlog. Great quality and look forward to new content! I use litchi fpv (with a spotter of course) and never realized you could change settings. Especially love that immersive joystick feature. Thanks for the tip!
Big!! you are the man. been looking to get some sort of FPV. do you have any other suggestions since its been a few years? I have the mavic 2 pro. fairly new to dji, have flown rc air and other drones.
Absolutely incredible! Technology that was only dreamed about even a few years ago---incredible creativity and way forward including with disaster response and emergencies! Also incredible to see university in new perspective, as university is meant to provide new perspectives as part of its mission! Incredible view but even more incredible people behind this and involved in filming---they share their skill, expertise, and enthusiasm in remarkable way! Eric, Viz Center
Thanks for the video - on the fence with DJI Googles. They are pricey for me (I think worth it but pricey and funds are tight / kids/college) With the litchi my phone is old S5(which I love because of swap battery and memory) but it DJI crashes and had people calling me when I forgot to put phone in airplane mode and messed up app again. So I bought an android table (shield) works better than phone but that still crashes (DJI needs to step up their android game.) lucky for me (as I won't pay for apple) my work allows me to have iPad and that works better - short of it, it kills the ability for me to use litchi without stressing about app crashing the Android OS. Also thanks for talking about regs on spotter, some people are not aware and like you said, problems will only lead to more regs. Thanks again for video.
Thank you for the video. I bought a Mavic Air 1 for outdoor educational video clips and would like to find an alternative to the "follow me" function. Do you know if this set up works on that model?
Hey, Bigball. Nice work and I'm a fan of your videos now. Dude, please answer me. Have a way to move the gymbal for left/right with head tracking, but not moving entire the drone? I guess that moving the drone like you do, maybe will mess up my sync with controller habilities.
+Ighor Silva there were 3 or 4 options in FPV mode try joystick mode. I don't think it will mess up the gimbal sycn as the DJI goggles can be used to move the camera independent of the drone. The reason I don't really use it is because head movement will mess up my shot.
GREAT info brother! I've been in rc aircraft since the 70's, but very recently bought a DJI Spark set up and am just getting the drone ball rolling! Subscribed and looking forward to learning all about the DJI drone/Spark's capabilities. Thanks for the cool post! 😁
Great review. Great style. Works indoors under half a pound. Would work on a tello. So size makes this faa compliant for drones under 1/2 lb. I subscribed.
I like how you keep it real and show that responsible drone operators don't break the law. Thanks for the video.

Can you hook up dji googles to the mavic mini?
@@dubsrcfpvandfamilyfuntimes913 no not compatible. Look up what you can use though

Hope it does the same in the spark...nice tutorial.thank you
Excellent review. Short, sweet and to the point.
WOW ... I saw this some time back but had forgotten how cool this could be. Thanks so much.
Very informative and appreciated the line of site / goggle conversation. Thank you!
Very good detailed video. I wish others were this detailed in explaining things. Good job
You are awesome.... and your video rocks! Looking forward for more. - Ken in Hawaii
Awesome! I bought Litchi a LONG time ago but never used it cause I was scared. THIS is what I needed! Thanks man!
The best video period! You guys are the best absolutely!

Great video...nice substitute for people who can't afford dji goggles.. thanks!!!
Nice video.
I wonder if the drone tech will ever come out with drone propellers that are made to be quiet!
Thanks for the in depth review! Nice alternative, even if you want the DJI goggles!
very informative for a 43 yr old gamer who wants to try out fpv w his dronw much appreciated
right to the point. good instructional video
Pretty awesome Big Ball Vlog... I like the idea - thanks
Im realy amazed by what i see..i didnt even imagine this exist..thanks..great channel..im fan ;) Question: Can i juse it on my Mavic Air 2, or Spark ? That would be great..reaction pls. ...thank in advance
Awesome video, can’t wait for the follow up.
Thanks for the video. Very informative
can you use this for mavic mini??? awesome tool
Movario 300,
Expensive but eliminates the line of sight.
Great review, the goggles and litchi is the bomb
good info, thanks. Looking for alternative to spending huge bucks on DJI goggles. Don't like some of the pitfalls of the VR system.
Clever! Gives me some things to consider as I get ready to purchase my first drone. I loved the dry humor in the beginning! Totally my style. In my experiences, it requires a higher level of IQ to get that kind of humor.
COVID-19 in 2020 and this is still relevant. Thanx for the info Sir. I will definitely try this when my Mavic gets here next week !!
Génial ! Merci pour votre démonstration ! :-) (FRANCE)
Super cool. I like ypu video.
OK, buying litchi now! Love my Mavic. Awesome video!
Which 3rd party VR headsets are compatible with the Mavic?
thanks dude, it can works with mavic mini?
Excellent Tip Thanks
You should be able to kill return to home with hitting the pause button on the control. not sure about emergency landing though
Fantastic,,thanks for a nice video.
Thanks From Sweden
Stellar video!
that is true you can even use it on phantom 3 machines.
Easy to understand review. Thank you for showing us different options available.
Thks great video can you please let me if the goggles working whit Mavic Mini also tell me pl name the goggles i try to find thank you very much bro
I have both and the dji googles are insane !!
+Morgan steel wish I knew some one who had a pair to try. Everyone who has them loves them
Great video,Thanks for posting.Watching this in 3/20 .Waiting on delivery of a mavic mini,hoping some of this can carry over to that model. I fly fpv quads,getting the mini as a travel cam of sorts
Hi now you have the dji goggles would you use them other your phone in the cheap goggles? Are they worth the money for dji ones ??
Now that's how do do a video! Excellent!
First vlog of yours I have seen. Great work! Subscribed!
Does this work with the Mini 2?
We are drowning in rules and regs. Some are OK, but some are keeping lawyers busy.
Thanks Dude. I am getting Litchi for sure. I also found Drone Controller for DJI to control from my Mac. Love to see a video on that.
Thanks for the video. Very helpful!
Thanks that's an interesting option you could FPV indoors some where and be legal? Laurie
Hi BigBallVlogs, your video is very helpful. I wonder if this type of Goggles work with the new a DJI Spark as well.
There are.. Check out my new video. Litchi is supporting the spark now if you have it.
But how do you use the features like panoramic and change your manual camera settings
Great video buddy! Thanks for the detailed explanation.
Great idea! Thanks for sharing!
does it work with mavic air?
Thanks for the review! Video as shows without delaying the image?
Nice bit of kit there.

Great review and info. Is this app compatible with Phantom 3 pro?
this is incredible!
so good to buy this app instead of the dji goggles for $600 Canadian!
Dude, under 1k on May 30 and 2.2K on July 7! Keep it up, funny start on this one, and great demo of Litchi. Maybe a follow-up with Spark?
+Matt Rollins thanks!

You're
Kickass vid mate :)
great video - this just tipped me to buy a mavic, now to find the right price. Thanks dude.
+UKRifter - VR & Stuff I've seem like new on Amazon for a little as $800.
BigBallVlogs I am in the UK, even in a sale they only get down to $1350
+UKRifter - VR & Stuff want to sell mine but I'm not sure what it would cost to ship it.
Excellent intro
Thanks from Turkey , Bro
Great video thank you.
Wow this is some good information thanks Bro.

Great job! I enjoyed your video!
+Peter Mercer thanks Peter
nice, great tip for dji owners
Big!! you are the man. been looking to get some sort of FPV. do you have any other suggestions since its been a few years? I have the mavic 2 pro. fairly new to dji, have flown rc air and other drones.
best thing to do is go diving there great under water video

AWESOME STUFF! THANKS !!!

How do you focus and change things during the flight ? You can’t right ?
What samsung phone and screen size do you have for the goggles? Can I use a samsung tablet with similar screen size for a mavic mini?
You think that'd work with a Spark?? Thinking of getting a drone but not jump directly in the deep end yet.. Budgeting $$..
Slick and Cool 'Intro'! It shows you want to keep the subscribers entertained. Keep it coming big guy! Subscribed.
GREAT info brother! I've been in rc aircraft since the 70's, but very recently bought a DJI Spark set up and am just getting the drone ball rolling! Subscribed and looking forward to learning all about the DJI drone/Spark's capabilities. Thanks for the cool post! 😁
Can you do it with the mavic mini ?
Does return home work ? While using this ?
how often are the goggles used in real life?
Cool. Didn't know about that.
Thanks
does this work for the new DJI FPV drone and controller?
Is that law just for what ever state yr in?
Great review. Great style. Works indoors under half a pound. Would work on a tello. So size makes this faa compliant for drones under 1/2 lb. I subscribed.
Awesome man thanks for sharing this!
do you still use this app? or is there a better option for you now?
i just scored my first drone (mavic pro) off eBay for less than $650!!! im so excited!!!
Good deal. I miss my Mavic pro. Its a great drone.
Thanks, BigBall! I'm just breaking into drones, looking into googles. You're a big help.
