Yes, with the use of HDMI cable obviously. but only for viewing the video feed. Without Ocusync (only on Mavic Pro and Sparks) the head tracking and touchpad controls will not work. I can see the advantages of 85 degrees field of view over my Fatsharks, I'm considering the purchase.
Have been flying with these goggles for awhile now. Absolutely love them. No use for a Pad on my controller anymore. It is the "Ultimate FPV" experience....
I like your videos, no faffing around, the information is at a rapid pace and no random babbling between points about your life story which some reviewers do, which I find highly irritating!! Clear, concise and well structured review covering all the points In a logical pattern that makes it easy to understand! Well done, thumbs up!
One of the clearest and most in depth, concise reviews and Unboxing I've seen. No nonsense and clear explanation. Thank you for the work involved in putting this together. I'll probably buy a set based on this. Cheers.
So glad you posted this, I was able to order my goggles this morning about 4:30am!!!! Ended up ordering 2 by mistake but I don't even care, I'll have someone to share with. Really looking forward to watching this video Billy, thank you for posting it
Not mentioned in the video is that if you don't want to take your hands off of the controls for to long you can use the mavic's 5 way d-pad on it's controller to access some of the goggles functions.
Great review. Best yet. Thanks for the view of the screen inside the goggles. I have not seen any reviewer been able to accomplish a view of the screens so in-depth. Nice work.
I just received my pair and I was thinking of putting a small phone insert around the rubber to see if it helps with the light getting in. To bad Dji didn't think of that and included it.
nice review you definitely knew what you where talking about and it showed. Heard a lot of reviews of late where the person knew less than i did and all i did was glance at the manual good job
On the P3A, P3P, P4 & P4P the $99 HDMI module will provide an HDMI output while keeping USB for cell phone or tablet. Also the Nvidia Sheild K1 Tablet, the HDMI output can display the same view as the DJI Go and DJI Go4 Apps produce. (only thing is Android 7 does not work well with the DJI Apps, better with IOS on iPad or iPad mini) I have been using the Fatsharks (HDMI ) as mentioned above but I can see that the wider field of view and resolution of 1080 over 720 dpi may be worth it to change to the DJI Goggles. There is no OcuSync with the Phantom series but in addition to Mavic Pro, the new DJI Spark works with head tracking and wirelessly. Really enjoy your channel, Billy. You are putting out great quality content. Addy Overbeeke
Billy, I just got the Fat Sharks, but I keep reading how DJI works so seamless and what a better picture you get. They are just so bulky. If you still had to choose, would you still choose the DJI over Fat shark. I imagine these have been updated since first getting them? I’m gonna wait to hear back from you before I buy them. Thanks man !!!
BIlly! I have been loving your regular video posts. On this one, what I missed was your impression of using these for flying other than you statement that this is the only way you want to fly. Tell us why. What makes it different? Considering these too, but waiting for you to push me off the dime! LOL.
While in use, there is a circle with a letter "h" that pops up. What is this? I looked at the manual and it doesn't mention it at all. Also, in regular viewing mode, there are crosshairs that move when you move your head. Is this to focus? Do you hit the fn button or back button to focus? Thanks in advance Billy, keep up the good work!
Billy can you please help me connect my phantom for advanced to the DJI goggles I thought I could plug in the USB and get the live feed but unfortunately it only lets me go as far as the language and then it thanks that I’m going to wirelessly connect the mafic do I have to go to DJI assistant 2 to activate the goggles for the first timeAny info would be appreciated
Hey man nice review. I like how you actually reviewed the packaging in detail as well. Always loved how dji packaged their products with the buyer in mind, much like Apple products. Keep up the good work and I can't wait to get my hands on these.
Hi Billy, excellent review as always. I'm interested in getting a pair of this googles as well but for close to $400, it's a huge investment. My questions to you are, after wearing it for a long flight (burning two to three batteries of your Mavic), do you suffer any neck pain or any sore at all? I realize that the touch pad control is on the right side of the googles, but in order to touch-control the menu icons, how do you where to tap since those on-screen buttons are so closed together? Last but not least, do you feel disoriented when you use the googles while flying? how's the learning curve? Sorry for sending a whole bunch of questions but thanks in advanced for your reply.
Great review. I have my goggles but haven't had a chance to upgrade my mavic fw to .700 to use it. I'd like to know how it feels after wearing for 30mins or so.
Hey Billy enjoying reviews on the Mavic! Question on the Goggles, Can you use the phone /Minii tablet and the same tim as the goggle display? want to fly while a non flyer can enjoy the experience. Mike From St Simons island GA
Great Video I bought a pair got them this week. The headband doesn't fit my head. The headband doesn't click when you attach them to the googles. But it's very cold here in the Northeast right now so I can't really fly with them too much but I did they are pretty cool which they should be for the price. Thanks Rich
Question- I just received my goggles and believe we are using the same setup with the P4P. I can't figure out why it is limiting me on flight distance/height. I tried to see if I was in beginners mode and that was not it. Any help would be awesome, thanks. Keep up the good videos!
Billy, 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? How I do the Compass, with the smartphone or the Goggles? I am confuse
Hey I'm looking to buy a a pair of these goggles mainly for Xbox is there any other products mainly for watching TV or playing video games? Oh and do the goggles come with a micro HDMI cable to regular HDMI cable? Thanks !
Can you connect a headset via Bluetooth? Or do you need the 3mm jack? How do you configure it to watch movies ? Only through the jack or can you connect to an iPhone/iPad etc? Thanks as always for your reviews, help and answers.
No bluetooth on this headset. No configuration needed, just plug in the HDMI cable from whatever you are trying to watch movies from and it will play like a monitor.
Brilliant review Billy, I've had my goggles for 3 days and they wouldn't allow me to activate, no matter how long the activating wheel revolved, or repeatedly I attempted, the Mavic connected, up popped ' go and fly and activate' but nothing. Bitterly disappointing, I've had to sadly return them. Watching your vid made me most envious. I wait for my supplier to respond. Keep up the amazing vids. Robert.
Does anyone know if I connect a Samsung Galaxy phone via hdmi to these goggles, open the vr gear app, can it play 360° vids? Not trying to replace my Samsung Vr goggles, but replicate some watching enjoyment.
6:10 a few questions Billy... 1) You say that the Transmitter display can not be plugged in while using the Goggles with the P4, P4P. 2) What about the P4 Pro Plus. Will the screen black out or will the same image be on both the Screen and goggles ? 3) Will the goggle's touchpad work when the goggles are plugged into a P4 Pro Plus ? Asked one similar question on FliteTest DJI Googles review last week but was ignored. BTW you are the first reviewer that actually had the goggles on correctly and level...;) My DJI Goggles are scheduled to be shipped by June 15/17. Can't wait.
1) Because there is only one USB port, you will not be able to plug in both the goggles and tablet/phone. Therefore you need to choose one. 2) P4P+ screen should stay on. Hadn't thought about that. 3) Touchpad will work with any drone. Thanks for the comment! Glad I could help!
Billy, I have the phantom 4 drone and just got the DJI Goggles. how do i set it up and get assistant 2 to work for set up. I charged the head set and have the two parts connected and when i push the start button the green lights come on then shut off. Help please. Mike Vose
Nice review! I have a set of DJI google too! I like it very much. But the only bad think about it! Is that when you play back a video files using the memory card. The sound does not works. For an unknown reason they block it! Hope they fix that!
So far for me they fit terribly on my head. They don't feel natural at all and want to tip forward. I would much rather have a soft strap and perhaps a wire that went to a battery pack that I could slip into my pocket. They are way too heavy.
Great video Billy. I've had my goggles for about a week now and cannot find a way to change my measurement of unit on the goggles to Imperial. Have you had the same issues or did you find a way to change it? Any insight would be great.
Billy - Q: if you have the extra HD part to your P4 series controller, could you then use both the iPad/iPhone with USB and goggles with the HD connection? Thanks, Justin
Would love a comparison with Moverio BT-300 FPV. Sounds like the DJI goggles are fantastic ... except for requirement for a second person to act as a VLOS observer. With the Moverio, which is based on AR (vs. VR) how well can you differentiate the FPV image from the DJI Go 4 app image? Based on brightness, can you adjust the balance between to two images.
It's the same rules when using ANY FPV googles that block out line of sight to your aircraft. A 2nd person is required. OR.... Don't fly FPV when alone....;)
lasersbee: Moverio does not block your VLOS. It is an AR device. Don't compare or confuse it with an VR device. The FAA is expected to approve AR devices for use w/o an observer. My question was directed toward getting feed back on whether the AR visual experience is effective.
Great review! Thanks for sharing. Can you post the link to the cable you bought to connect them to your xbox? I'm interested in doing this as well. Thanks!
hey Billy great Video Review Q: can you connect the hmdi cable to Googles and still use the laptop as a backup the reason i ask i have a par 54 to my RC i fly A P4Pro thanks
I wasn't able to get it to work when I tried. These were designed for DJI products primarily so some functionality is limited when using other products.
These don't make alot of sense for a non racing drone. Since you are supposed to keep visual sight on your drone at all time you cannot do so without a visual observer. Also having to access the modes and setting you have to remove the headset to do so while in flight.
Think I'll just unsubscribe to some of the other dji channels that I subscribe to. Get the info I need in a much more efficient manner on your channel. Good production quality too!
I was wondering if there was any other way to use your phone and goggles at the same time. This would be nice to have another person beside you seeing what your seeing through the goggles. Do you have to modify your controller to have the 2 HDMI port?
You would need one that transfers data. I tried this when recording my iPhone screen and that is didn't work. Different device but it is the same premise. Even if it did, that's a lot of dongles and cables to deal with.
Hey Billy love your stuff man have you figured out when using head tracking mode how to get back to regular it doesn't seem to be a designated button in the menu and I cannot get mine to stop tracking my head to matter what I do I have to turn them off and turn them back on
The main thing you need to know is that the image is not like looking at your iPad. It's not nearly as clear. Resolution is very disappointing. I sent mine back really disappointed and built a really good shade box for my iPad. The experience of looking at your iPad is much clearer and better and a hell of a lot less mucking around.
I completely agree..I've used other FPV set-ups and the experience was lackluster to say the least..Not only did it feel unnatural and strange, but the resolution was a deal breaker..Thanks..I'm not trying them
Finally someone who says it as it is, I held off buying this headset for my P4 and now my P4-Adv + as they talk to death about the 2x 1080 screens which gives you 4K or what ever, but does it really? as I thought the video transmitted to the headset out the drone was only at 720. I think I need more info before I buy as I want a clear image, I can put up with a little lag but not if the image is like playing games on my Samsung Gear VR. (very pixelated)
Hi Billy, Great review!! One question: what about orientation? What do you get on the screen about direction to home point, any support for lining up rc towards the drone? Cheers!!
$450 for DJI goggles, same for Fat Shark goggles...wish one or the other or both would allow you to control all rc craft FPV. Sigh.....$1000 for two pairs of goggles and $$$ for two or more controllers.....Or have I missed something?
I was just thinking about the possibility of connecting a small camera to the HDMI port of the goggles. You could switch from FPV mode to the camera live view as sort of an "electronic" spotter. Curious as to how that would work. It might be worth a try.
Yeah, that rule is so lame. You can't even see most drones a kilometer away in the sky anyways, especially if it's white like a Phantom or small like a Mavic, etc. Plus, if there are mountains, etc in the background any drone just blends in and disappears from view. What will they require next - paint them all Electric Pink or something? Besides, not every spotter is going to want to stare at a tiny speck in the distant sky continuously for 20 minutes or more, especially looking towards the sun. I seriously doubt all spotters keep their eyes on the drone 100% of the time anyways and it's common sense that most probably do not. FPV should be a requirement for flights of more than a few hundred feet, not a spotter who may not even recognize a tricky situation, if it arises and then it's too late. DJI could think about making FPV goggles with a built-in camera that tracks the drone or one that could be used on a tripod might be better. After all, it's the pilot that has to avoid potential problems, not a spotter.
I want a telescoping mini lens Maybe i should design one just so we can solo these bad boys As it non electronic it would be ok and small enough to allow google use too Lots of fov to stick mini prismatic parascoping device
I bought a pair They Suck! They don't fit my head. The view is not clear. When I use it with my spark the view is pixilated. They work with my mavic pro but there nothing to brag about. Don't Buy Them! Thanks Rich

will these goggles work with the DJI Phantom 3 PRO, after the HDMI module is installed to the remote?
Yes, with the use of HDMI cable obviously. but only for viewing the video feed. Without Ocusync (only on Mavic Pro and Sparks) the head tracking and touchpad controls will not work. I can see the advantages of 85 degrees field of view over my Fatsharks, I'm considering the purchase.
Love your video bro but u need to fix ur bed before shooting the video lol
Hahahaha will do! Thanks!
Have been flying with these goggles for awhile now. Absolutely love them. No use for a Pad on my controller anymore. It is the "Ultimate FPV" experience....
I think you can use the goggles and tablet at the same time on the phantom S if you have an hdmi module installed in your controller.great video
whats the benefits to have both going? tablet and goggles
any missing info in the goggles only view?

Billy... great job! Really liked the fact that you showed the actual screens during the setup. Thanks
No problem Rich!
So glad you posted this, I was able to order my goggles this morning about 4:30am!!!! Ended up ordering 2 by mistake but I don't even care, I'll have someone to share with. Really looking forward to watching this video Billy, thank you for posting it
Woah man, 2? That's awesome!
Billy Kyle just finished video, super helpful can't wait for mine
Thanks Doug! You're going to love them
Fantastic, thorough, professional, informative review! Thanks!
Not mentioned in the video is that if you don't want to take your hands off of the controls for to long you can use the mavic's 5 way d-pad on it's controller to access some of the goggles functions.
That was cool. Thanks I had no idea dji goggles could do all that. ✌️
I primarily use mine for watching movies because I usually fly alone. But flying or watching movies, it's just a fantastic experience.
Great review. Best yet. Thanks for the view of the screen inside the goggles. I have not seen any reviewer been able to accomplish a view of the screens so in-depth. Nice work.
Thanks Michael! It was tough
great job. your honesty & passion is appreciated. I have a Mavic pro coming this week can't wait to practice & get a pair of goggles down the road
Yay finally. I was deciding between this or the spark and I chose the spark cause I thought the goggles would get boring in a week or two
I just received my pair and I was thinking of putting a small phone insert around the rubber to see if it helps with the light getting in. To bad Dji didn't think of that and included it.
Great job Billy. I have two pair of DJI Goggles arriving Thursday and appreciate you helping me get to flying quickly.
nice review you definitely knew what you where talking about and it showed. Heard a lot of reviews of late where the person knew less than i did and all i did was glance at the manual good job
It's not fun when you watch a video of someone basically reading you the manual lol
On the P3A, P3P, P4 & P4P the $99 HDMI module will provide an HDMI output while keeping USB for cell phone or tablet.

Thanks for the comment Addy, as well as the insight!
awesome summary - thanks
When you get the spark can you test with the goggles to see if looking down tilts the camera down on the gimbal. Truly yours your biggest fan 👍🏼
Another great video
Nicely done straight to the point, thanks for the effort. Subbed

Whenever a company spends enough time to make the packaging look nice, you know the product is good lol
Thank you for sharing this information with us. I look forward to getting a pair of these in the future.
No problem! They're awesome!
Hi Billy are you still using the goggles? i am thinking of getting a pair to increase my use of the mavic and improve my shooting.
Hey my friend you did an awesome job on this review. Love the attention in all your reviews and news updates.
Michael
Thank you Michael!
Hi Billy, excellent review as always. I'm interested in getting a pair of this googles as well but for close to $400, it's a huge investment.

Great review. I have my goggles but haven't had a chance to upgrade my mavic fw to .700 to use it.
I'd like to know how it feels after wearing for 30mins or so.
No fatigue for me
Was just wondering was there ever new updates and what was the difference...😉😎
Well done and very informative. thanks.
Good job as usual. Appreciated. Systematic.
Thank you!
Hey Billy
enjoying reviews on the Mavic!
Question on the Goggles, Can you use the phone /Minii tablet and the same tim as the goggle display? want to fly while a non flyer can enjoy the experience.
Mike From St Simons island GA
Very nice review. Good job!
Any chances for an Epson Moverio bt-300 fpv review/comparison?
Nice video Billy! They look awesome! Also do you happen to play lacrosse? I saw the STX lanyard and know you live on the east coast so I was curious
Oh yeah, have been playing lacrosse for quite some time now
Great Video I bought a pair got them this week. The headband doesn't fit my head. The headband doesn't click when you attach them to the googles. But it's very cold here in the Northeast right now so I can't really fly with them too much but I did they are pretty cool which they should be for the price. Thanks Rich
Great video and it's really helpful.
No problem!
nice. cant wait for mine. DJI says expecting to ship "early june."
Sweet! They'll come soon enough
Question- I just received my goggles and believe we are using the same setup with the P4P. I can't figure out why it is limiting me on flight distance/height. I tried to see if I was in beginners mode and that was not it. Any help would be awesome, thanks.
Keep up the good videos!
Billy great video, I have a question in regards to focusing. Will the goggles auto focus or do we still have to set it to c1 or c2 button. Thanks
Billy, 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? How I do the Compass, with the smartphone or the Goggles? I am confuse
Hey I'm looking to buy a a pair of these goggles mainly for Xbox is there any other products mainly for watching TV or playing video games? Oh and do the goggles come with a micro HDMI cable to regular HDMI cable? Thanks !

Billy you have produced another wonderful informative video. I truly thank you and learn a lot from your excellent work.Dr Eric Cohen MD
Thanks!
Do you did a long range?
What is max distance that you did?
6:10 a few questions Billy...
1) You say that the Transmitter display can not be plugged in while using the Goggles with the P4, P4P.
2) What about the P4 Pro Plus. Will the screen black out or will the same image be on both the Screen and goggles ?
3) Will the goggle's touchpad work when the goggles are plugged into a P4 Pro Plus ?
Asked one similar question on FliteTest DJI Googles review last week but was ignored.
BTW you are the first reviewer that actually had the goggles on correctly and level...;)
My DJI Goggles are scheduled to be shipped by June 15/17. Can't wait.
1) Because there is only one USB port, you will not be able to plug in both the goggles and tablet/phone. Therefore you need to choose one.
2) P4P+ screen should stay on. Hadn't thought about that.
3) Touchpad will work with any drone.
Thanks for the comment! Glad I could help!
Billy Kyle Wow that was a fast response...
Thanks for the info Billy.
You got it👍🏼
It's like the launch of the first mobile phone LOL , we will all be laughing in a few years time ( What I used them Goggles ) nice review though.
I totally agree hahah, thanks!
I can't believe there is not at least wireless video feed for Lightbridge 2. I'd buy them if they had at least that basic function for my S900.
Billy, I have the phantom 4 drone and just got the DJI Goggles. how do i set it up and get assistant 2 to work for set up. I charged the head set and have the two parts connected and when i push the start button the green lights come on then shut off. Help please. Mike Vose
Did you preorder from DJI website or bhphoto?
DJI website. They are available for pre sale right now on DJI's website
The present pre-order batch at DJI are scheduled to ship on July 15/17
Nice review! I have a set of DJI google too! I like it very much. But the only bad think about it! Is that when you play back a video files using the memory card. The sound does not works. For an unknown reason they block it!
Hope they fix that!
That is because they try to limit it to video from your drone only
Do the DJI Goggles work with the Litchi app?
So far for me they fit terribly on my head. They don't feel natural at all and want to tip forward. I would much rather have a soft strap and perhaps a wire that went to a battery pack that I could slip into my pocket. They are way too heavy.
will the goggles work with the p4 pro plus?
Great video Billy. I've had my goggles for about a week now and cannot find a way to change my measurement of unit on the goggles to Imperial. Have you had the same issues or did you find a way to change it? Any insight would be great.
No way to change it right now. It should come in a future update.
Billy - Q: if you have the extra HD part to your P4 series controller, could you then use both the iPad/iPhone with USB and goggles with the HD connection? Thanks, Justin
You could, but you would not get the same functionality if you plug the HDMI cord in from your controller. No HUD, special features, etc.
You dawg !! Dang, you always get the best goodies !!! I'm just jealous :)
Hi Billy nice video. thumbs UP as always. Tell me can we watch 3D videos via HDMI cables from PC or any other input?
No 3D support. Sorry!
Can you use these with your p4 pro
any chance you can show how or what it will take or do to use 2 pair at the same time?
Dont have two pair. Sorry man
Hey. Great video. Still waiting for my Goggles. I see that u can connect p4p via usb... dose that work for the p4p+ as well?
It will!
One thing I noticed was no setting to change the distance/speed from metric to imperial.
Yeah there is not a way to. Im guessing this is a feature that will be added once firmware updates start rolling out.
Great Video! I just got my mavic pro a couple of weeks ago and I love it. Trying to save for a camera right now but maybe for Christmass!
Awesome! What camera are you looking at?
cannon 7d I don't know what lens to buy for far away video any help would be welcome Thanks Rich
I'm not well versed in lenses, but I know people often use a 50mm
Ok Thanks Billy Keep up the great work! Thanks Rich
Thanks Rich! Will do

HOw did you hook it up to xbox?
Great review! Thanks for sharing. Can you post the link to the cable you bought to connect them to your xbox? I'm interested in doing this as well. Thanks!
Cable comes in the box!
Does that cable hook directly into your xbox? Is it long enough to back a little bit to play games? Thanks!
hey Billy great Video Review Q: can you connect the hmdi cable to Googles and still use the laptop as a backup the reason i ask i have a par 54 to my RC i fly A P4Pro thanks
Footage can not be recorded from the goggles
they remind me of the jurassic park goggles
no neck or back problems after an hour of flying?
Not for me. I had some older people try it out and they said it got heavy after a few minutes.
Can you play vr games? Or watch 360 video with them? Thanks
I wasn't able to get it to work when I tried. These were designed for DJI products primarily so some functionality is limited when using other products.
P.S. The only thing I wished they would do is make it smaller...maybe like fat shark. They are huge!!
Smaller would be better. Definitely something they can improve on with the next pair!
will you buy the spark and do a full review?
Yep. Have it pre ordered
a full 20 minute review to be expected then?
Maybe more than 20😁
Can you change the info in bottom left from metric (speed, height,etc) to USA system?
No. Should be in a firmware update soon.
so satisfying clicking sound example?
Audio playback didn't do it justice
Billy Kyle
Thanks
These don't make alot of sense for a non racing drone. Since you are supposed to keep visual sight on your drone at all time you cannot do so without a visual observer. Also having to access the modes and setting you have to remove the headset to do so while in flight.
My friend and I take pictures and videos of my dads construction projects. These help a lot with bright sunlight. Makes sense for some people.
Nick Guidry... Makes a whole lot of sense to me for my flying needs. It was the Touchpad and flip-up feature that attracted me.
Great info! Maybe next time use something a little less in your room as a backdrop.
Need to come up with a set to shoot at, thanks for the tip
Think I'll just unsubscribe to some of the other dji channels that I subscribe to. Get the info I need in a much more efficient manner on your channel. Good production quality too!
I was wondering if there was any other way to use your phone and goggles at the same time. This would be nice to have another person beside you seeing what your seeing through the goggles. Do you have to modify your controller to have the 2 HDMI port?
On the Mavic you can use your phone and goggles simultaneously, not on the P4P
could you not buy a usb adapter where it creates 2 usb ports out of 1? like a headphone splitter....
You would need one that transfers data. I tried this when recording my iPhone screen and that is didn't work. Different device but it is the same premise. Even if it did, that's a lot of dongles and cables to deal with.
Hey Billy love your stuff man have you figured out when using head tracking mode how to get back to regular it doesn't seem to be a designated button in the menu and I cannot get mine to stop tracking my head to matter what I do I have to turn them off and turn them back on
The main thing you need to know is that the image is not like looking at your iPad. It's not nearly as clear. Resolution is very disappointing. I sent mine back really disappointed and built a really good shade box for my iPad. The experience of looking at your iPad is much clearer and better and a hell of a lot less mucking around.
I completely agree..I've used other FPV set-ups and the experience was lackluster to say the least..Not only did it feel unnatural and strange, but the resolution was a deal breaker..Thanks..I'm not trying them
Finally someone who says it as it is, I held off buying this headset for my P4 and now my P4-Adv + as they talk to death about the 2x 1080 screens which gives you 4K or what ever, but does it really? as I thought the video transmitted to the headset out the drone was only at 720. I think I need more info before I buy as I want a clear image, I can put up with a little lag but not if the image is like playing games on my Samsung Gear VR. (very pixelated)
Hi Billy,
Great review!!
One question: what about orientation? What do you get on the screen about direction to home point, any support for lining up rc towards the drone?
Cheers!!
No map on the HUD in the goggles. I think they decided to not include it because it would take up a lot of room.
OK, so whats with the little arrow in the middle of the screen, what does that one do for your orientation ?
Yes that is orientation. So if your drone banks to the left you will see the degree of tilt.
aha, but no help to line up to home then (like the diamond, on the HDMI module OSD) or help to align RC/Antennas towards the drone
I guess the later would need a compass in the goggles which i guess is not the case. But the first thing would probably only be a software update...
$450 for DJI goggles, same for Fat Shark goggles...wish one or the other or both would allow you to control all rc craft FPV.
Sigh.....$1000 for two pairs of goggles and $$$ for two or more controllers.....Or have I missed something?
How do u plan on maintaining continuous visual line if sight which is the number one faa rule? In google images dont count fyi
You need a spotter when using these
I was just thinking about the possibility of connecting a small camera to the HDMI port of the goggles. You could switch from FPV mode to the camera live view as sort of an "electronic" spotter. Curious as to how that would work. It might be worth a try.
Dan Reynolds nope must be an actual sight not electronic
Afaik
Yeah, that rule is so lame. You can't even see most drones a kilometer away in the sky anyways, especially if it's white like a Phantom or small like a Mavic, etc. Plus, if there are mountains, etc in the background any drone just blends in and disappears from view. What will they require next - paint them all Electric Pink or something? Besides, not every spotter is going to want to stare at a tiny speck in the distant sky continuously for 20 minutes or more, especially looking towards the sun. I seriously doubt all spotters keep their eyes on the drone 100% of the time anyways and it's common sense that most probably do not. FPV should be a requirement for flights of more than a few hundred feet, not a spotter who may not even recognize a tricky situation, if it arises and then it's too late. DJI could think about making FPV goggles with a built-in camera that tracks the drone or one that could be used on a tripod might be better. After all, it's the pilot that has to avoid potential problems, not a spotter.
It’s too big they need to make it much smaller
I want a telescoping mini lens
Maybe i should design one just so we can solo these bad boys
As it non electronic it would be ok and small enough to allow google use too
Lots of fov to stick mini prismatic parascoping device
should a guy charge before or are they charged bro , man im old , slow down a little bro
after 7 months, what you can say about these goggles, it is worth spending money and buying them
I like em a lot when using the Mavic. Connecting wirelessly is truly awesome
but it is worth spending money ... or maybe better buy better monitor, like iPad
They have two separate roles IMO
I took a chance, the package arrived yesterday. We'll see if was worth spending so much money for that DJI GOGGLES.
I bought a pair They Suck! They don't fit my head. The view is not clear. When I use it with my spark the view is pixilated. They work with my mavic pro but there nothing to brag about. Don't Buy Them! Thanks Rich
Do these work with the P3 standard?
