Dji goggles

[johnsctt78]

Hi guys
I'm looking at buying the dji goggles. Anyone here have any input on it. What's the distance for the mavic video feed etc
Any info much appreciated

This review covers many of the common questions about the DJI Goggles:

I'm also looking.
Price has come down quite a bit
Wonder if a new version is coming out
Hopefully they changed in the styling department.

yes i heard rumor a new model with adjustable diopters for glasses users is coming and maybe some other features, i too have noticed they came down alot in pricing

I have mine for the past several months and when the price started going down I was on the fence on getting one.

I bought it finally and to be honest I think it's a great addition to folks who have a Mavic and or Spark. I have both so the investment would serve two purposes although with the Mavic it is much a better experience. Connecting through occusync with the Mavic versus through a USB OTG cable with the Spark makes it less clunky. It works with the Spark but not as easy with the Mavic.

As far as use. I can't say I use it every time. I still need more practice with it and for some being able to accurate frame shots is easier with it than without. No sunshade no interference in seeing things. Unfortunately you do need to make sure you have LOS which I know I flip the goggles on and off till I'm comfortable with it high in the air. I actually had more confidence flying farther out since I feel like I'm with it the entire time. Like sitting in a pilot seat whereby I would have kept it LOS. Of course thats like breaking the rules. .

It definitely changes perspective. If you can't see it over a tree I usually try to bring it back but with the goggles it doesn't matter. It's like you're up there and driving/flying it so YOU know where you are going. Hopefully that makes sense.

Do I like it. Definitely! Do I use it all the time. I can't say I do but any opportunity I try so mileage for you will vary.

I think most people want to experience it and once they do the "mystery" and use dissipates. I can't speak for everyone but it is big and clunky to easily carry around despite a nice case I got with it.

Take it for what it is and have fun with it if you can drop that cash.

Thanks for the awesome review!
I'm on the phantom forum and just received my mavic pro today.
I was told the MP doesn't have an hdmi port
I have avegant glyph goggles and really like them since i can look up or down without flipping up the goggles.
They're also good for movies and music
But i don't want to buy a tablet with an hdmi port just to use the goggles
The wireless is a big plus on the dji goggles

Cool congrats on the new Mavic.

Just to be clear the wireless "occusync" goggles to Mavic won't help with Wirelessly connect to other device for watching on a tablet or anything. You will still need an HDMI cable.

To further justify my purchase I thought I could it to watch TV /movie, play Xbox and yes I can do it all once I purchased a cable long enough from my TV to the couch. Once again great experience but realistically not really practical.

Keep that in mind if you plan to do the same. Fun at first but then you're like do I really want to put that on my head to watch a movie for a couple of hours?

I would have never been able to get these videos without goggles.
I also wouldn't use them all the time but it was money well spent for this

 

[Ms.UAV]

I found a deal on dji goggles
Anyone have additional input good or bad?

Anyone have additional input good or bad?

Check out these search results for related threads.

 

[Ms.UAV]

Yes, I've read through most of those.
I was looking for more of people that have used them and still like them
I don't want them to end up collecting dust on a shelf
I can get a brand new set for $305 shipped and have enough ebay bucks to cover the cost.

 

[c5chris1]

I want one too now that I have an Air and Pro.

Any feedback would be appreciated. Thanks !
