MAVIC MINI FPV
- Thread starter 1212121
- Start date
I did have a spotter, and the orange wrap on my drone actually extends the VLOS for flying in general. I am not sure I understand what you mean about advertising. The "SYSTEM $150" is just a description. I am not a vendor advertising a combo for the Mavic Mini or for DJI, just showing a system that works for FPV flying.
The response on this post or shall I say against the OP, seems a little harsh. He does mention having a spotter and I don't see any big giant obvious advertisements for this product he is obviously not the manufacturer. I think it was just a helpful tutorial to show that you could possibly do that!
Maybe I'm just cranky today but it seems that some are trying to instill fear In putting a simple post out there these days.

Very interesting...thanks for the info! That's certainly one way to avoid sunlight washing out the tablet display!
That’s a nice setup. Looks good. Thanks for the info. A lot of MM owners have been searching for something like this. Happy Flying

Nice, there had to be a simple way for the Mini to work with FPV goggles.
I use similar cable connection for my Spark drone and DJI RE goggles.
The Yuneec Skyview goggles are interesting, those ones in your YT link are refurb for US$50, even the Yuneec site shows them for a mere 80 euro / US$88 / AUD$136.
Specs might be lower than DJI goggles but probably fine for flying.
What's your range on them, done a test on it ?

Look forward to you testing range, with a mini it should be suitably comparable I guess.
I use a simple micro USB adapter from controller, and could just have micro USB at goggles, but just used a USB-a there with an adapter to the micro port.
First of all I loved your tutorial, BUT, I checked all your sources and the end line is quite a bit higher than you quoted, I don't know when you bought your stuff but I would guess you caused a supply and demand situation. The Winnovo went up $10 (not bad), the HDMI adapter only went up $1, the Hanatora holder is not available it is not the Tech Fection which is $4 more, but the big one is the FPV goggles are now $89.99. Still a good deal .
Wow, yea thanks for letting me know! I think I did cause a supply and demand issue. I have updated the links.
This is also a solution to fly the Mavic Mini with the DJI Goggles. As this DJI Support video states at time 1:58,
you can connect the goggles to the phantom remote's hdmi port via hdmi cable, for example. Get the hdmi to micro-hdmi adapter in my video's description link, connect that to the hdmi cable included with the goggles. Use this cable to connect to the tablet's micro-hdmi port, and you should be set! You won't have head tracking, but you can use it like any other FPV goggles.

I will check those links out, I ordered everything except the goggles, I was going to research them a little more.
