DJI Goggles Racing Edition Review | FLITE TEST

[@FliteTest]

Pro Tip: You can rent DJI products (Goggles too but not SE yet) from LensRentals: www.flitetest.com/lensrentals Many thanks if you use our super special link above. It gives us credit to try new camera gear :)

[@mikew9788]

Lensrentals is great, I use them for camera lenses all the time.

[@downswingplayer9712]

Hey, guys thanks for the review I am about to buy a pair of goggles and after watching ten other videos this one covered the things I wanted to know. I will probably go for the racing edition. Subscribed.

[@TampaAerialMedia]

They are great for us aerial photographers in Florida shooting on white beach with bright sunshine. Good video for helpful and very well done.

[@TheDTYW]

I’m so bummed out right now and frustrated that I just sold my MAVIC PRO for heck a cheap and this thing came out. I thought that this would never came. Thank you guys for sharing love your content. Keep up the good work.

[@walkman1269]

DJI needs to step up their game. This new company DGI is really bringing it. I love my Ohio buddies see you every year at Flitefest but you take great liberty with J's and G's. It's not just you guys it's everyone up there. Love to you brother. Peace.

[@rivercity3908]

DGI was mentioned 20 times in this video, DJI - zero. I watched twice to confirm. Love you Flite Test, but the whole "DGI" thing drives me a bit nuts. Keep up the great work and congrats on 800k!

[@kkuenzel56]

This is the kind of content I like to see on Flitetest.

[@truenorth365]

Glad you did a video on these googles! Canceled my Mavic Air pre-order yesterday (hopefully await the MP2) and always wanted these googles for my Mavic Pro. So will be spending that hard earned cash on these instead! Good timing guys, thumbs up from Sweden

[@FliteTest]

Magnus Persson enjoy them! They are pretty cool ;)

[@battlestaghunter]

Magnus Persson Why did you cancel the Mavic Air?

[@truenorth365]

Just figured that the Air is a Spark Pro. Very impressive little bugger but I´ll wait for the next bandwagon. Hopefully an MP2. Just tested out these googles now...love the feeling you get when flying with them! I think these will really help when capture cinematic-shots.

[@battlestaghunter]

That makes sense. I too am always skeptical of when to buy new tech because something better always seems to be around the corner. Thanks for replying :)

[@GmanSach]

Magnus Persson something new will always be coming out. Timing, price, features and learning curve help make the choice for me. I learned a long time ago that it isn’t all about the technology all of the time. At times, quite often it is the user that will bring out the full potential of any experience. All in all, Magic Pro today or Mavic Pro 2 when it comes out.. the maximum potential experience will depend on you!

[@johnfpv1989]

Super interesting! I can't wait for low latency fpv with a good digital signal! We're getting there

[@Muckers.]

Honestly, I’ve been watching this channel for a while now and there is a better channel for DJI product reviews. Very informative video, keep up the good work!

[@calvinschellbach8168]

Thanks, guys. This was really informative. I'm trying to get into FPV and this is helping to make a good decision.

[@FliteTest]

Calvin Schellbach that’s awesome! Glad we could help ;)

[@delfin2003]

Best review i've seen

[@Project-Air]

Great video, and I loved the end screen ;)

[@Casanovaelrey]

Wow. Really seems unbiased. They even compared it to their own FPV goggles and were honest about it. Great review!!!

[@raymondborkowski4290]

Excited to try mine with my mavic later today 🤞

[@trevuser2007]

You say latency is 50ms at 480P. Is that digital via the Ocusync, or straight analog 5.8? Any figures on latency using Ocusync at higher reslutions?

[@Katalyzt]

I have a simple question.. Is there a 'fan' on these "racing goggles" to suck air in to keep the glass fog free? Katalyzt

[@claeswikberg8958]

lol the blooper real just killed me :P

[@FliteTest]

Ummmmmm -Austin

[@Chumbuucket]

Cant wait to see more!

[@maxtamcpherson8869]

Hi great vid , i have the RE version of the goggles and was wondering if you are it using the mavic pro or the mavic 2 ( which uses 2.4 and 5.8 ) do you have to connect the external antenna?

[@jpmackin]

Exceptional informational video guys, thank you very much!

[@bpmakesithappen8395]

Question are the race editions worth the upgrade??? I'm only flying the mavic pro. Also does it require you to wear the antenna for the mavic??? Thanks BP

[@Lucas_Schaar]

Since you guys just broke 800k subs (congrats guys!) Alex should stuff a new EMax 2306 in a mini mustang on 4 cell and do a fly hard challange! I want to see a mini mustang do 100mph ☺

[@malelonewolf80]

You should put the ocusync module on the Opterra. That is what I would do if I had such a module and goggle.

[@FliteTest]

We will be doing something very similar to this!

[@stephenmason5682]

Did you leave out the Mavic Air? As the air is a Mavic, can I assume it will sync?

[@jimwyrick1962]

So I’m looking at getting a Wing..I’ve narrowed it down to either a Opterra or a Disco. I can’t decide which one I’d prefer. Both have great flight characteristics and options..... I’ve watch both of your reviews and just can’t decide... what would you recommend if it was you?

[@IUjustin]

Side-note... it's pronounced "fer-nell" rather than "FreZ-nel" thanks for the great video!

[@upperechelon3456]

Fascinating and superb video Flite Test. Good Job. So…Since the Occu-Sync can piggy back a traditional 2.4 Ghz radio, does that increase the range of the radio transmission beyond the expected 1-2 miles. Looks like an easy way to obtain long range FPV along with crystal clear video-just saying. Wonder when DJI will just come out with there own all in one long range fixed wing platform.

[@MCsCreations]

Looks really nice

[@isaacsterenberg3449]

Hopefully the Marvel Vision II's will be back in stock soon. I have been waiting scince Christmas! Great video!

[@christiancoates]

Hi, great video! Do these google work with a mavic air 1, as I don’t think it has ocusync?

[@CYCOJOE888]

800k yeahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. congrats@all

[@amillionhomes]

You guys are usually great but I wanted to know more about compatibility with Phantom 4 Pro series.

[@gortt7611]

Will you get any improvement in latency when using a Mavic? Or only when using the air system? The signal processing is supposed to have improved

[@ernieschatz3783]

Great review with one exception. The analogue FPV portion of these goggles is an 'also ran.' I get a wide, vertical green line down the center of the view and heavy flickering making it unusable for analogue video. It happens when you're actually receiving a signal from a transmitting drone. This problem is wide-spead among users, so I don't no why it's not making it into reviews by vloggers. If DJI is marketing these goggles as an all-in-one, that's a big fail.

[@hajagosantal3768]

Yes. I have the same problem.... Lot of time cant use, coz the screen is full of green lines and stripes.

[@ernieschatz3783]

@@hajagosantal3768 Yep! I think quality control is lacking in the analogue receiver section. Either the green lines are an intermittent problem or the analogue receiver has poor interference rejection. When using them with my FPV whoop, I get a horizontal scroll. With the Husan 501SS, I get quite often get the green lines. By comparision, that same FPV signal at the hubsan controller is crystal clear. My el cheapo, non-diversity Furymax googles receive signals from the same two drones without issue. I'm thinking it's best to have a separate set of analogue goggles because you never know how this one will behave. That's really too bad. The sensitivity isn't very good either. I have an RP female to female SMA adapter on order so that I can use a higher gain antenna in place of the LH circular polarized antenna that came with the googles.

[@MrDronebot]

Awesome that is compatable!

[@aureliorodriguez5136]

Are these DJI racing-edition black googles compataible to the Mavic Mini 2?

[@checkeredflagfilms]

When you're flying with the Mavic Pro 2...is it necessary to install the Pagoda? I understand that really for use with the FPV system.

[@hobie1613]

Happy 800k subscribers!!!

[@Billy_Darley]

Hj Aviation oh wow! I thought they had more. Hadn't noticed lately.

[@FliteTest]

Shanks!

[@mpcscifigroup1]

Thank you so much! 👍🏻

[@PlainVlogs]

Congrats on 800k

[@alansavage9656]

Very informative video Alex & Austin!!

[@typxxilps]

I own these goggles for over a year but totally missed one point * built in analog 5,8 Ghz connectivity I always thought I had to buy the dji air system unit to use the goggles in fixed wing or other models. One fine day I purchased a ZOHD with Kopilot and transmitter that should have a huge range and so I started considering buying affordable aomway commander still unaware that my mavic 2 goggles could instantly work. At that point I saw one alternative in buying a dji air system ... cause it seemed a bit cheaper which it was not ... and then I found a link with the googles and this crazy antenna I did not use before and thought that it belonged to the FPV Air system but in the background I saw that the truck had no digital dji cam but an analog cam mounted. The last 2 days I figured out how easy the goggles are to pair with the analog cam of the ZOHD and now I learned or understood what DJI means by air unit or system cause what you guys showed is the complete digital air unit with the OSD and artifical horizon and gps or telemetry. So it looks like I will be able to use the analog world in my zohd world and I will buy a used air unit cause that offers the whole flexibility and power of a dji ocusync system. Thanks a lot and this video ist still up to date after dji had fixed all the initial issues they had with Mavic 2 series or support of the Mavic 2 by these goggles that took a long time till spring. And if my new air system works great I will put it on the flite test otter seaplane in hope that it will be able to carry the weight and system easily. Cheers and a happy new year for the coming 2020 !

[@1988dirk]

Thank you for you Review! Ordered mine RE today :) Maybe you can answer me a question about the antenna? I use dipole on my small quads. Which antenna should I use on the RE? Can I use my fatshark antenna? If yes, do I need a sma Adapter Reverse Polarity SMA Female to SMA Female? Thank you for your help! Keep it up! And congratulations for the 800k subs.

[@exil3dlivecom]

The only thing you guys didn't cover was the latency using the head tracking on the racing edition versus the regular white goggles. I'm wondering if it's less

[@jimwyrick1962]

Hey guys, love this channel and all the videos you do huge fan and thanks for all the info you provide. Question for you, I have a Mavic Pro and I plan on purchasing a Opterra in the next few weeks. Can you recommend a FPV headset ( goggles) that would work on both without breaking the bank?

[@FliteTest]

Jim Wyrick these goggles would work for both!! ;)

[@maximummarklee]

This is so on-time for me because I'm aiming to invest in a Mavic Pro Platinum system and can't decide whether to get the white or black RE versions. I guess if the white one has an HDMI I could also use it for other VR purposes - which adds value. If I get the Mavic, I probably would not need the 5.8 functionality.

[@bassdeere]

Does it work with glasses? Or does it compensate 4 blurriness

[@matrixate]

Good production boys.

[@BlueOwlFPV]

wow 800K subscriptions - that means a big party! well done guys :)

[@OnyxLee]

Does RE really have 148 degrees fov comparing with original model’s 85 degrees? Or do they feel the same?

[@Philberton]

Have you guys considered doing a comparison of HD FPV options? I'd be interested to see how this looks on a quad or wing using ocusync (whether using DJI's camera or not).

[@Shiitake0787]

Question! So not only will it sync to DJI's Ocusync tx system, but also different TX's like the one on racing drones and receive different channels?

[@tighematthew]

Do they hook up wireless to the spark or do you still need the cable

[@mohammadislm]

Have you tested the new black DJI Goggles RE (Racing Edition) with Mavic Pro? If so, is the experience and quality/speed better on the RE edition than the regular white Goggles? Please note, I am asking specifically for Mavic Pro/Platinum, not for Phantom.

[@ProbroCrash99]

I enjoyed this video. I would have enjoyed it more if you compared it with headplay and the ones that look like head play. I selected headplay over head shark not over cost but liked them better.

[@windwalkerproductions]

It would be interesting to see FliteTest's opinion on the newish FPV Blue System...

[@JGraham4713]

Awesome review, they are the goggles I was looking for!!! Thank you !!!! for the info and keep up the great work..

[@FliteTest]

James Graham fantastic! So glad we could help out... enjoy em James!!

[@Phrancis5]

What's the FOV? How immersive feeling are these? New Mavic pilot here. Been building/flying whoops/race quads, fpv'ing with custom wide FOV box goggles and love widescreen gaming. I want these, but a bit too pricey. Damn.

[@jonathankohl6264]

Hey guys, the link you provided to the goggles don't seem to be working. Keep up the good work!

[@pixusphotographic]

Are these compatible with the DJI Air 2s? Thanks

[@Coeyan]

Hi, thanks for the review. What would be a good and affordable FPV drone that is compatible with the DJI RE Goggles for first timers? (my wife wants to try)

[@Nilz4FR]

I just got mine 2 weeks ago and it looks different on the rubber inside. The sides have a small cut on the inside. Mine also fits horrible. There is always light coming in from the sides. Have they changed the design?

[@shender944]

It would be interesting to see you do a video where you put DJI FPV on something like a Spear or Bixlar

[@StukaNova]

love YOUR VIDS CEEP UP THE GOOD GOOD WORK :)

[@davidbentick]

DJI, have released some new FPV Goggles, I not sure how they stack up to the current racing googles and if they're a replacement?

[@ER_666_]

Hey FliteTest are you guys making a mavic air review soon?

[@rogermiller6049]

I bought the White Dji googles about 5 months ago. But the Ocusyn air system is not compatible with them:(

[@mohammadmoeidelahi6035]

Can the head tracking work with your won setup through your RC transmitters such as FrSky?

[@tedwingate]

I can't find any info on the IPD adjustment on these. Are the specs in the box?

[@dimitriadams915]

Do you guys have time for a vs between the DJI Goggles RE and Fatshark HD0 :-) would be perfect thanks

[@jimrichards7014]

Do the eyepieces have diopters for us ocular challenged folks?

[@trobinson1230]

I have a serious question that I have asked before and it was not answer. How do those goggles work for a person that only has one eye? I normally use goggles with one screen I'm reluctant to buy a 2 screen goggle .please answer that question.

[@TheSkyPod]

Will these goggles work on the Mavic Air ?

[@matthewsimms472]

I got the tiny trainer for Christmas. However now I have built it and tried to get the control serfaces to work they won't. I have linked the transmitter to the receiver and got a solid light but when I plug the elevator rudder and the ailerons in they won't move. Any tips?

[@goinfomercial]

These goggles are going to great when paired with the Phantom 5 x.....360 degree camera pivot!!!

[@sinebar]

What's the difference between the standard and racing dji goggles?

[@AP-qc9hi]

Is the live video signal from the drone digital or analog?

[@k6lsn]

Excellent review guys, Thanks. Man, really wish they could miniaturize these in some ways. Peace, Wheelchair John in Idaho :) ( Mavic owner)

[@_BangDroid_]

Why do you think they're not using fresnel lens? Even the new HTC vive pro has them. Personally I think fresnel lenses are crappy

[@Nothinglefttosay]

I just purchased a pair of these for my Mavic. My divorce is next week....! Thanks...! 👍🤣💥

[@lipschutz]

Have you got divorced? Just kidding. How is this google? Worth it?

[@chrisr236]

You said that "A person who it's not for is somebody like TJ...." but you actually never explained why. As someone who is about to buy a mavic or something similar and who is also seriously interested in fast FPV, this would have been really good to know. Just telling me who it's not for but not saying why is a bit pointless. Can you enlighten me? thanks!

[@Sky1]

I hear that there is no Find my drone function when you use the goggles is that true?

[@Omega70]

wait hold on a sec... please tell me we can use that ocusync thing on a racing fpv drone and use the dji goggles with it?

[@johnh2309]

Biggest problem with the goggles is there is NO FOCUS adjust. You can wear glasses - no problem at all, but most glasses, unless they are just magnifiers, have a set focal distance. Mine is about 16 inches from my face. The screens are about 1.5 inches from your face. I have found I have to wear magnifiers when I use my goggles. I am an older person 50+, but it is probably not going to be a problem for younger pilots. Only had the goggles for about 2 weeks, and I will say that despite this problem they are worth every dollar I spent so far.

[@terryoneal944]

Please tell me the name of the black Google’s, I would like those a Lil more better than the white ones.

[@kalikaputra]

DJI goggles RE ( race edition)

[@AndyRCchannel]

DGI ;)

[@FliteTest]

DEE JAY AYE, captn!

[@Billy_Darley]

XD that's what I was hearing too. Thought it was just my phones sound quality.

[@dirtylove87]

I yell at my phone everytime they say DGI which is every video that involves DJI

[@JaredMillerDrums]

What is the racing drone shown in the beginning? Thanks!

[@FlywithJoel]

Bout my first plane because of you

[@grege2383]

How are they for someone who is nearsighted and is there a video out? I have the Inductrix FPV+ and am thinking about the Mavic

[@Billy_Darley]

greg E because its like an inch from your eyes. So if you can see clearly up to 6 inches unaided then you''ll be able to see the screen clearly with these.

[@cameronsteed2712]

Those look amazing I want a mavic air

[@craigfoy6604]

Are these vr or for like a drone or sumthink?

[@slugosrc1256]

Can anyone answer this question? I just bought a older white set of dji googles. Will the separate occusinc camera and transmitter work with my googles? I'd like to put them on a plane this summer and go for some long range flights. Thanks Rich

[@FliteTest]

We have not tested this yet, but the original DJI Goggles are definitely compatible with Occusync, so you shouldn't have a problem connecting them.

[@jimwyrick1962]

Btw where are guys located, would love to hang with if I’m ever in the area

[@jimhofoss9982]

Are these wireless compatible with the Phantom 4 Pro Plus ?

[@jordank867]

I know that this is not part of the video, but will there be camping areas for flite fest Texas? Will camp sites come with the tickets?

[@danielpassmore5026]

Jordan Klebieko there is a flight fest Texas?

[@jordank867]

Yes. Flite test just put out a video last week about the event.

[@FliteTest]

There will be camping areas! Just have to purchase them when signing up! ;)

[@sqb3832]

Greetings a question my drone was making a lot of noise at the fpv signal when I accelerated the motors so what I did was put a capacitor connected to the battery and now it signals me but the screen is totally black is a runcam owl plus 2 and foxeer tm25 I hope you can help me thank you.

[@betomxl29]

Where can I get the occusync transmiter? If I mount it on my skysurfer can i overlay the vector osd on it ?

[@felixbattle6220]

800k! Yay

[@Joelmelanie]

Big KZbin channel, wow, but...cool projects en reviews!!!

[@Joelmelanie]

Would be realy awesome if you guys review my Harrier one day...keep up the good work!! Here is my link kzbin.info/www/bejne/e5vVe2ipjah1hqM

[@timesque9790]

Will these work with the Phantom 3 advanced

[@pondus5002]

Wil these DJI Goggles RE work with Phantom 4 pro 2.0 wireless ???

[@Ferdigrapher]

Pondus 500 yes.
