    All DJI Goggle Cases & their lowest prices (listed here)

    I finally settled on a small pieced together setup to carry everything because I wanted the smallest case that could carry the most gear. Thought I would post what I'm using here in case anyone else is interested. I'm using the Tenba BYOB13 case with the Tenba cable pouch modified to hold the...

    Dji goggles.....big disappointment

    Just an update on my Goggles and the Blurriness issue. I wear reading glasses (1.75) and even with these on everything in the goggle view is blurry. I went to Target and bought three pair of readers in different powers (2.0, 2.5, and 3.0) and for me the 3.0 seemed to be the clearest although the...

    Custom Goggles/Mavic case

    Question for you guys that pack your stuff out to the field. If you could create custom foam for your gear what would you say must go in it? I'm drawing up a custom foam insert for a backpack and not sure of all the gear that I should or need to fit in the compartment that has the foam...

    All DJI Goggle Cases & their lowest prices (listed here)

    So I think I'm going to use www.mycasebuilder.com to design a foam insert that should fit in just about any backpack (I have many laying around the house). I have used this company before to make foam inserts for Seahorse cases but you can design a layout that suits whatever gear or case that...

    All DJI Goggle Cases & their lowest prices (listed here)

    So I ordered this bag to give it a try based on this video and I'll be sending it back. What I found was that yes, it all fits but only if you jamb everything into it. The way the guy in the video has his spare props over the Mavic would end up bending the props if you stored your gear in there...

    All DJI Goggle Cases & their lowest prices (listed here)

    The uprise 43 by Vanguard is discontinued by the manufacturer so if you can find this bag and want it you should snag it, I can't find one new for less than $100. They now make an Uprise 45 but it's not a sling bag and it's $135 at Amazon. The biggest Sling bag they have is a 34 so if the 43 is...

    Refurb Mavic for $730 shipped at Newegg

    Mine was shipped from CA so yeah, if you live there you're going to pay tax. Not sure why you didn't get free shipping but for those out of state it's still a pretty good deal.

    Authorized dealer question

    Thank you all for the replies and peace of mind! Newegg has the Refurbished Mavic Pro from the "DJI Official Store." for $729 and free shipping (Just this week) so I bit the bullet and bought one. Then ordered the goggles, extra battery from who msinger recommended (RC Depot hobbies), a lens...

    Authorized dealer question

    Hi all, First post here and doing my research into purchasing a Mavic Pro and the new Goggles and I have a question about some of the online retailers that sell through places like Amazon or Newegg (I have gift certificates to use for those). There's a store on both Amazon and Newegg called...
