Mav3 and Mini 3 can now fly FPV

[akdrone]

I'm excited that I'll be able to fly FPV with my Mav 3 Pro and my Mini 3 Pro. I already have the the new motion controller and the Goggles 2 from my Mini 3 Pro so they will work with that but using them with my Mav 3 Pro will, I think, be a lot of fun. I'm not sure if I'll order another set of the controller and goggles or if I'll just bind them back and forth or whatever. Wish the Mav3 Pro had been bundled with just the RC Pro but it wasn't (you had to buy 2 extra batteries) so now I'll have another RC controller that I really don't need. Sigh...

What??? This is what I'm trying to figure out. I have a Mav 3 Cine and DJI Goggles 2 (that came with the Avata). I can't get them to work. I'm guessing you saw some update somewhere?

I think someone mixed up the apple juice and Mike's Hard Cider last night.

Connect each of them to your computer and do the updates on the goggles, controller and drone. Then you should be able to pair. That is what I had to do.

Yes! Pairing both my M3P and Mavic 3 to the Integra and MC2 this morning. Some stumbling blocks but getting them all linked now.

Ok. Let me get this straight. I need the motion controller to use the Goggles v2 with my Mavic 3, right? I am currently using the rcn1 controller with tripltek 8.
I just want to be CLEAR on what I need to fly FPV with my M3 and the Goggles 2.
Thank you for your time.

You need Goggles 2 or Integra and the Motion Controller 2 to fly your M3 FPV.
Unfortunately they have not enabled a regular remote. I have two RCs, RC Pro, FPV controller 2 and standard motion controller so I need the Motion Controller 2 if I want to try it.

Made a coupe of flights with both the Mavic 3 and the Mini 3 Pro using the Integra and MC 2. Even head tracking works!
This just opens up a whole new world of ways to crash my drones!

I come to all this nonsense as a old hippy hang glider pilot. Flying FPV...looking down on the world is magical and puts me back in the air...without dry desert air blowing past me...and I'm altitude limited with a drone whereas in my kite I got to 18,200 at on one flight. sigh...

 

[Kilrah]

It's weird because none of the release notes for the goggles or aircraft mention it...

18,000 ft. on a hang glider?!!! Wow! I get uncomfortable over 10-12,000 ft in a Cessna 182! Don't know why, just start to get butterflies. Did you have a supplemental oxygen rig?

Congrats on your new fpv toys, have fun!

No oxygen. Today, at 72 I have a hard time at 10,000 feet. It's quite a story but essentially started to get sucked up into a huge cumulus cloud over Crested Butte. I had a very hard time getting down and at one point considered jumping free of the kite and using my parachute but I did three very dangerous "wingover" maneuvers that lost me enough altitude that I was then able to spiral down in a very tight spin. It was a glorious flight over and hour and a half. The launch was over 10,000 feet, I think, but it's been roughly 40 years so I could be corrected on that.

I think the firmware update comments do and the current sales page talks about the new abilities. I went flying yesterday but didn't take the time to try it. Soon.

For me this is the closest I've ever come to flying in a hang glider, flying with a retired TWA pilot and man I wasn't prepared for the intense G forces involved with coring a thermal, or the tow plane for that matter either. One of my fondest memories of flight, although if we had been in the air another 5 min I would have lost my breakfast. Very GLAD that didn't happen!

 

[Droning on and on...]

The problem with supporting a stick controller is engineering needs to be done to make either the goggles work with the non-FPV RC's, or the aircraft work with the FPV RC 2.

I expect the latter will happen, not the former.

Then we can get the popcorn and listen to all the crying and moaning by Mavic3 and Mini3P pilots about having to buy the FPV RC 2.

Several videos today showing this workaround. Not sure how stable and risk free it is...

@Torque that's very interesting, and hopeful!

Gliders fly much faster than hang gliders thus have a much larger radius when coring a thermal. On one occasion I actually cored a thermal faster and inside the the radius that a sailplane was using. He flipped me off. I was concentrating too much to laugh but it was a fantastic moment. I kept going up inside his very wide circle.

New firmware update makes DJI Mavic 3 drone series compatible with FPV goggles

New firmware updates for the Mavic 3 series make the drones compatible with DJI’s latest FPV goggles and RC Motion 2 remote controller.

Hmm, I have the FPV V2 Goggles and motion controller... I wonder if they will be able to do any of this eventually... lol
