Timothy, I have watched a lot of your videos....you do a great job with them....they are very informative. I appreciate that your manner is a "one of us" manner....and not a "Know it All" manner.....Thank you, Don
Timothy, I have just bought my Mavic Pro and started to watch a lot of videos from TH-cam before the flight. To be honest yours are the best and the Mavic video series you prepared helped me understanding all the details of my drone. Thanks a lot man.
Great video Timothy! I was kinda on the fence about these goggles. But after your detailed and informative review I am ordering today. Appreciate the info brother.
Thanks for the kind words! I found the range to be very similar. 👊💥

You've sold me on DJI... I'm going to be making amateur short vids that involve a lot of ariel shots and it looks like DJI is calling for duty! Also, What camera would you recommend for someone on a budget? I want to try and avoid any imagery inconsistencies that would otherwise be blatanly obvious (IE: Mavic = super crisp and high FPS, = noticeable snow, dropped FPS, lower res, etc). Would you have any recommendations on a budget handheld that matches or closely matches the Mavic? (or can the Mavic be used as a handheld?)
Great tutorial Timothy! I'm curious how to sync two goggles to one drone, Since I purchased two sets of these goggles and have not figured out how to sync them to one controller, although I did contact DJI and they mentioned that I need a second controller which would suck to cough up another $300 just to have two people view them. I checked out Flight Test's video on these and they are going to look more into the matter so I'm waiting for their response too. Will you be picking up a second pair to try it out yourself? Thanks again for the video and tips bud!
Unfortunately, I can't help with that one. Hopefully Flight Test will get back to you. They are great guys! I have no plans to buy another pair since DJI doesn't send me their products, I purchase them myself and can only fund so much.
Thanks for the great review It's been over 2 months Are you still enjoying them? I am trying to justify spending the money by telling myself it will be for the pure fun I don't want to walk by them on a shelf a few months after buying them
I am impressed the video is one topic at a time Clear and down to earth I will make a video and send you a link as I brought a mavic yesterday and have watched lots of your work Wish me luck
I just purchased a goggle and me like most people who wear glasses the goggles are out of focus and there is no adjustment for focus. Most are doing what I have done and that is go to any drug store or hardware store and buy a cheap pair of 3.25 reading glasses and wear those and the focus is perfect. I went and setup the glasses so they are in the headset so when I flip it up I can see the tablet fine and I can slip my regular glasses on if needed. Other option is focus fixers which do the exact same thing for $50 rather than $3
Hiya Timothy. Thanks for the review and yep, I want a pair! Looking forward to your upcoming reviews, I have the Mavic btw. As with a lot of other people who probably watch your channel, I am also a newbie to drones, and I mean I have had two hours flying newbie, so because I am not yet used to the controller do you think that this would be an advantage or a disadvantage in getting used to the goggles? Just one thing though about your review not quite matching the others I have seen; I was led to believe that the headset should be turned off for charging and that charging while turned on using a powerbank etc was a no-no, not sure if this is correct or not.
Hey Barry. Thanks for the kind words. I think this is still a very feature-rich device for even novice pilots. Just get enough altitude that you don't have to worry about hitting things and have some fun! I hadn't heard that about the charging while in use. I'll have to look into that. I know I did setup while plugged in and the side lights flashed like it was charging.
Hi Timothy!!!! Your TH-cam videos on the Mavik are the only ones I watch as I learn to use the Mavik. Will be going to Iceland next year and want to take my Mavik with me to capture videos and images of waterfalls, glaciers, craters, etc. Any tips on how to capture these large landscape subjects? Thanks!!!
Tried these with my mavic air... display looked pretty bad at such close range in the 720/30 mode and breakup was happening at less than 500 feet. In the exact same spot with my galaxy S5 I can go about a mile before I see any video distortion.
I have been on the fence on these, but have decided to make the order. If you have a camera backpack that holds the Mavic, your DSLR, and a GoPro, how would you either add this or transport it while keeping everything portable?
Awesome! I think you'll love them! I'm still working on the best transport solutions...haven't found a super great one yet but be sure and know that I will share once I find one.
Timothy Sunday do you know what the estimated ship date of the goggles was when you posted this video? I thought it was still 6-10 and I ordered at that time
Timothy, I have a phantom 4 pro, do I need to connect the RC and the Smartphone first and then after connect the RC to the Goggles? How I do the Compass, with the smartphone or the Goggles? I am confuse
nice review and good video, thanks for the great videos Tim, i like them all and whats nice is that you cover everything with out boring people to death, great job and great set of goggles, thats on my Christmas wish list :-)
It seems like it should be possible for them to make 3D drone systems...you'd have to have two cameras spaced eye-width apart on the drone and I suppose there would have to be a double video stream. But I can't imagine how cool that would be with good goggles.
Ah, you just answered my question about sharing the goggles with someone else. I have a feeling that this would make me ill as I do not like watching video on Imax screens because the speed and motion gets to me. But I feel it would be a neat accessory to throw on someone else's head while I control the drone with the controller.
I just bought this. I used it once for a short time. It is extremely high on the cool factor. However I was a little scared. It's going to take some experience to get comfortable with it. I'm uncertain how you can use the gimbal control left to right using only the controller. Is this something only available using the headset?
Hi, question for you. I just ordered the new Mavic Air and the goggles. I was wondering if you can have a live view from the camera on both the goggles and your smart phone connected to the controller at the same time. The reason I ask is because I am on Search and Rescue and I need to be able to see with the goggles when I'm flying it but I also need to be able to transmit my smart phone screen to a TV so I can have other people helping me spot for people. Thanks
Tried these with my mavic air... display looked pretty bad at such close range in the 720/30 mode and breakup was happening at less than 500 feet. In the exact same spot with my galaxy S5 I can go about a mile before I see any video distortion.
either way it seems strange there would be any variance... I mean it is supposedly communicating with the remote... and the phone or goggles are just a direct connected output display.. I'm stumped.
Not very well. You would have to get the HDMI adapter for your controller and even then you would only get the screen and none of the extra features. Full compatibility begins at the P4.
lagrande42 i saw on another channel that if u use a micro sd 16gb it will work but if u use 32 or 64 it wont. Let me know i get my goggle in a few days.
I've been following you since your first Mavic video. I bought these the moment I saw them.... but, I wear graduated trifocals and there's no way I can focus on the screen... really unhappy that there isn't a diopter adjustment... hoping I can order some cheap glasses to wear while using the goggles. Wish DJI would have thought about this.
I have a question... Getting back to hooking up ur computer to the DJI goggles. Whats the quality like.. could I hook these up and enjoy netflix? Is browsing the web semi decent? would they look ok for that ?
I picked up the Mavic Air and the Goggles recently. I love the drone, the Goggles not so much. Hopefully I find something interesting to do with them. The fact that it disables the phone/app control is the deal-breaker for me. I was hoping to fly the drone with the phone and have another person watch/control the gimbal. Doesn’t seem feasible with the Air. The goggles are heavy and the “wow” factor is not there with the few things I’ve tried (xbox, video play back from drone). Regarding the playback from the drone, using a 64GB micro SD card in the goggles doesn’t work. Using the USB cable to the goggles does. Another goggles fail. I wouldn’t suggest them with the Air. Maybe the Pro.
DJI Goggles "failure to Activate" even with the latest DJI Go 4 and most recent DJI assistant 2..This DJI Assistant 2 download is CRAP...I am returning my DJI Goggles to Amazon and bitching about the DJI Assistant 2 download in every forum and TH-cam channel that has the DJI Goggles reviews..really pissed..
Sure does! I'm a member of Sean's Video Ranking Academy and he has trained his students to do intros like this because of certain reasons of which the TH-cam Algorithm favors.
A few weeks back I have purchased a Mavic DJI FPV goggle and I have returned it. Reason, it was big and cumbersome to carry around, also, it is extremely heavy on your head. Of course, the human eyesight, particularly your pupil. Therefore, it has not been designed and developed ergonomically to suit every face or eyes. Furthermore, after approximately 1500 to 2000 meters away you will lose signal unfortunately it is useless. Finally, It is OVERPRICED.
yeah keep drone line of sight. why they fly so far and curcing when it come home when batery not last up wind. pilot stupidity. i not want broke or loose overpriced flying gimbal. yes it cost less manufacture lol
@@chucktaylor8038 it is english Google translated perfectlt to my country lol.you can read it?but yes you not understand it..iits english written and reading is different .hmm or is it?

Timothy, I have watched a lot of your videos....you do a great job with them....they are very informative. I appreciate that your manner is a "one of us" manner....and not a "Know it All" manner.....Thank you, Don
Thanks for the kind words, Don! Appreciate you being a part of the community!
Don Livermore, you have stated exactly what I was thinking! Well written 👍
Another excellent review Timothy, great job & I look forward to the future reviews.
Timothy, I have just bought my Mavic Pro and started to watch a lot of videos from TH-cam before the flight. To be honest yours are the best and the Mavic video series you prepared helped me understanding all the details of my drone. Thanks a lot man.
Dynamite video, all I needed to know. I want a pair for my own channel.
Glad to help! Hope you'll use the links in the video description to order as they are a free way to support the channel!
How amazing would these be with the zoom. I really want to get these
Fantastic review Timothy. Thanks so much. Will they work with a Phantom 3 Standard? Thanks again.
Thanks! Unfortunately, they will not work with the P3
Timothy Sunday but they will work with the phantom three advanced right because of the HDMI and light bridge correct
Awesome video Timothy! I will have my goggles tomorrow to go with my Mavic. Hope your still enjoying them. I cant wait!
Thanks for watching! Enjoy the experience!
Great job explaining the features of goggles. Thanks.
GJ BRO
this dji googles, are they compatible with any dji drone?
Great review! I think you have a great way of reviewing that is detailed yet still understandable and interesting.
You really do some great videos man. VERY well thought out and presented in a professional and easy to understand manner. Keep'em coming bro!!
Thanks!
Nice video Dude!!! Keep doing such a great work!!! Greetings from Thailand & Barcelona!
Thanks for the kinds word! And thanks for watching all the way from Thailand & Barcelona!
Great review Timothy, "Really down to earth" (no irony intended) I am defiantly subscribing and looking forward to checking out your other content.
Great video Timothy! I was kinda on the fence about these goggles. But after your detailed and informative review I am ordering today. Appreciate the info brother.
Awesome! Glad to help! Hopefully you'll use the links in the description as they really help keep the channel going! 👊💥
How long did it take to arrive after DJI's website marked they were shipped?
I am really looking forward to purchasing these. Great first look. Thanks.
Cool! Glad to help! Be sure and use the links in the description to order as they help keep the content going here on the channel!
Hi Timothy, I like your videos, you seem to be a Kind person.
What about the range? Is it the same as with the Controller an a cellular?
Thanks for the kind words! I found the range to be very similar. 👊💥
You've sold me on DJI... I'm going to be making amateur short vids that involve a lot of ariel shots and it looks like DJI is calling for duty!
Also, What camera would you recommend for someone on a budget?
I want to try and avoid any imagery inconsistencies that would otherwise be blatanly obvious (IE: Mavic = super crisp and high FPS, = noticeable snow, dropped FPS, lower res, etc). Would you have any recommendations on a budget handheld that matches or closely matches the Mavic? (or can the Mavic be used as a handheld?)
Did you try connecting any videogame console on this?
Not yet but I will SOON!. Stay tuned
Thanks for the video. Subscribed!

It's been over 2 months
Are you still enjoying them?
I am trying to justify spending the money by telling myself it will be for the pure fun
I don't want to walk by them on a shelf a few months after buying them
I am impressed the video is one topic at a time
Clear and down to earth
I will make a video and send you a link as I brought a mavic yesterday and have watched lots of your work
Wish me luck
can you out put to the phone and the goggles? so one person viewing phone screen other wearing the goggles?
Sure can! 👊💥
Is there a way to connect from the goggles to a TV through the mini HDMI port?
I just purchased a goggle and me like most people who wear glasses the goggles are out of focus and there is no adjustment for focus. Most are doing what I have done and that is go to any drug store or hardware store and buy a cheap pair of 3.25 reading glasses and wear those and the focus is perfect.

Other option is focus fixers which do the exact same thing for $50 rather than $3
I completely agree with what Don Livemore so perfectly stated! Sub added! Thanks Timothy!
Came across your channel when watching mavic videos. You got yourself another sub :)

Thanks for another informative video Tim. My pair is shipping to me as I write this. Can't wait to slap these things on.

Timothy Sunday do you know what the estimated ship date of the goggles was when you posted this video? I thought it was still 6-10 and I ordered at that time
Can you fly just with goggles and RC, but no mobile device. When I tried, it reaches Max Alt of 30 m???
Timothy, I have a phantom 4 pro, do I need to connect the RC and the Smartphone first and then after connect the RC to the Goggles? How I do the Compass, with the smartphone or the Goggles? I am confuse
I used you link to order mine today. Does the micro hdmi cable come with it
Awesome! Thanks for supporting the channel, Billy. Cable included!
nice review and good video, thanks for the great videos Tim, i like them all and whats nice is that you cover everything with out boring people to death, great job and great set of goggles, thats on my Christmas wish list :-)

Awesome review!!
Thanks, Stephen! 👊👊
You're welcome!
It seems like it should be possible for them to make 3D drone systems...you'd have to have two cameras spaced eye-width apart on the drone and I suppose there would have to be a double video stream. But I can't imagine how cool that would be with good goggles.
thanks for all the videos on my way getting that cord for my iphone.. I say hands down Mavic Pro is the best drone too date Tim
I have to agree! Love my Mavic. Happy Flying!

But I feel it would be a neat accessory to throw on someone else's head while I control the drone with the controller.
Definitely very cool for your friends. I usually get a little ill in similar situations but I haven't with these goggles.
thanks.
No Problem! 👊💥
Hello can you help me, when i conected my goggles the dji disconected to the dji 4 in my tablet, this is normal???
I just bought this. I used it once for a short time. It is extremely high on the cool factor. However I was a little scared. It's going to take some experience to get comfortable with it. I'm uncertain how you can use the gimbal control left to right using only the controller. Is this something only available using the headset?
Correct, only on the headset. The controller will not control it as it's built into your pan movement in order to help smooth out the footage.

Thanks! I can't wait until they show up on my doorstep.
I received a shipping notification that my Mavic Air will be here Wednesday! HYPED!
Awesome! I'm still waiting for my email.

Really funny with the spotter disclaimer....lol..
Safety First!
Timothy Sunday of course!!!
Can you use a Phantom 3 pro with this?
Not very well. You would have to get the HDMI adapter for your controller and even then you would only get the screen and none of the extra features. Full compatibility begins at the P4.
Are you having any issues with your goggles reading the micro sd card? I can't seem to get my to work.
This doesn't work yet... you have to connect to your Mavic to watch video. Hope there will be a firmware update for this.
lagrande42 i saw on another channel that if u use a micro sd 16gb it will work but if u use 32 or 64 it wont. Let me know i get my goggle in a few days.
I've been following you since your first Mavic video.

Wish DJI would have thought about this.
My father-in-law had a similar issue recently. I didn't think about bifocals or trifocals. That is difficult. Were you able to find a solution?
I've ordered a prescription set of reading glasses just for this. I'm hoping that solves the problem.
Your channel is very helpful, I like your enthusiasm!
On behalf of general aviation, thank you for promoting safety and regulations!
Thanks! Glad to be of help! Fly Safe! 👊💥
I have a question... Getting back to hooking up ur computer to the DJI goggles. Whats the quality like.. could I hook these up and enjoy netflix? Is browsing the web semi decent? would they look ok for that ?
Yes to all your questions, very clear at 1080p on pc via hdmi. Be sure to turn scaling all the way up in goggles
How long do you think it would take to get the Goggles if I ordered them NOW from DJI or B&H and which one would you think will be quicker?
I'm not sure on shipping times. But I definitely think ordering direct from DJI will be quicker
Outstanding review. I wasn't even considering the goggles, but now? ...
Thanks! Definitely pick a pair up. They are a lot of fun and have more uses than just drone flying.

Wait for the DJI goggles mark II version 2 so u wont be disappointed you pay'd a toilet load of money for a fridge !
Huh, the people ridiculing this for it being bulky to travel with either didn't know it comes apart, or just wanted to make a dishonest review.
I mean, in comparison to most VR headsets and FP Goggles, you have to admit it is pretty huge.
Wow, that's a lot of ads...
