Thinking of buying 2nd hand Racing edition but..

[burkesdale]

I have a Mavic pro and have been told that buying second hand DJI Goggles RE you cant factory reset the goggles ?
Is this true and if i can't re register them to MY account then if and what problems will i have?

Or should i just bite the bullet and buy brand new?

 

[burkesdale]

The brand new ones here in New Zealand are $956 NZD
And the 2nd hand pair im looking at are $700 NZD with a sling bag.
But concerned about not being able to re register goggles to my account.

Hope someone can help on my concerns.
Thank you
Mike

Sorry Mike, I'm not sure about the answer.

I bought new RE goggles and love using them, but I searched Google for > dji RE goggles factory reset
and got these results, quite a lot on the >>>>> DJI forum <<<<<< (click link)

Reading that first post, it doesn't look good, it seems the goggles are tied to first purchaser.

How-to reset goggles?

How do I REALLY reset the DJI Goggles to like when I (very first time) first took them out of the box? 1. Resetting using "Reset All" within the Goggles menu doesn't really reset them. They remain linked to my Mavic & all my settings remain. 2. Resetting using Assistant 1.1.1 FAILS...

There are also some posts there in search results in our Goggles section of MavicPilots, might be worth browsing there and the Google results a little more.

I have the white goggles and bought them in January. I honestly don’t remember registering them unless it happened in the process of updating the firmware.

You might send a note or get on a chat with DJI asking the question.

Thank you both, I just had a live chat with DJI and yes they are tied to the 1st buyer but they couldn't really answer me as in my 2nd concern if they would cause any problem or if any info gets or is made available to the person i brought them of

So looks like i will bite the bullet and buy new as then feel safer that way

Oh, welcome to the forum too, it's a great place to hang out with like minded, drone loving individuals.

As far as what i have read when you first use them you just have to activate them which of course means using your dji account so yer then they are bound to your account and a new owner can't re / de register them.
so yes i will just buy new even though NZD$700 is a great price for 6 mth old racing edition with a dji sling bag but i just bought a hard case for goggles and Mavic pro so now need the goggles lol

Thank you all.
