How to connect your DJI Mini 4 Pro to your Quest 3

[@yandyzaldivar7408]

High tech content! Waiting to see a longer tour, as the wind allows.

[@TiagoWolf]

Wow that's an awesome feature to use with the quest! And an amazing location for water activities! Keep these coming 🤙

[@I2AT]

Understood. Thanks so the reply. Appreciate the info. Take care, Travis.

[@yangshinji]

Thank you for the video. I also tried with my quest 3 and mini 4 pro, and it works!

[@johnpicone3050]

Thank you so much for figuring this out & sharing the info! There is not much out there about this! One of the subjects i capture with my mini 4 is ocean wildlife, Whales, Dolphin, Sealions.... And the biggest limitation is being able to see my subject with the sun reflections on water & the controllers screen which is not bright enough in sun. So using this setup you have configured whould probably give me the best visibility with my subject. Whould love a more in-depth video on this going over any limitations with the drone controls, lag time, controllers battery time wile connected to goggles, pros & cons of overall experience? Also how long do the batteries last on the quest 3 while connected with the drone in these conditions? Thanks again for sharing the info to the community!

[@I2AT]

Very cool, will try this at home.

[@LeoKoffee]

Buenísima combinación! 👏💪👌

[@Hellokittyluvr31]

Can it be a RCN1C or does it have to be RC2?

[@jonathanrhodes4788]

Thank you for this insightful information! Can the screen through which you are flying on the headset be enlarged such that you are seeing mostly with the drone sees?

[@AlainSainz]

@@jonathanrhodes4788 yes, you can make as big or as small as you need. I thinkyou can only make it up to a certain size but you can always walk closer to it if you need to see it even bigger lol

[@dronyland]

Now that's some great informative content ! I do have the quest 3 and the DJI Smart controller, which has a HDMI output. I wonder if that would work with the quest 3 using just a HDMI to USB-C cable 🤔 Also, why didn't you just use a direct USB-C to USB-C cable ? Do you have to have that video capture device in between for this to work ?

[@AlainSainz]

Yes, you have to have the USB capture card in between so the Quest can receive the video feed. Otherwise it wont work. I tried it. 😊

[@boebhang8102]

​​@@AlainSainz did you experience any delay with this setup when using the rc controller?

[@AlainSainz]

@@boebhang8102 Im sure there's a minor delay if you fly FPV which needs latency to be kept very low, but its not really noticeable. I dont feel like there's any delay.

[@luisdefreitassabarretojuni2670]

hi Alain, thanks for the content. Do you have any lag issues? Or it works with no lag?

[@AlainSainz]

@@luisdefreitassabarretojuni2670 no noticeable lag when flying this kind of drone. I dont know if there would be a more noticeable lag if you're flying a fast FPV drone for example.

[@360chicagotours2]

Great Video man. This is soo awesome. Honestly makes me want to get a meta quest just for this. Can this be done with Mini 3 pro you think? As long as your using same controller?

[@AlainSainz]

@@360chicagotours2 with the same controller it will work, but even if its a different controller, as long as it has video out you will be good.

[@I2AT]

Is the hdmi pass through required? Thanks for sharing the video.

[@AlainSainz]

@@I2AT when you say the "hdmi pass through" what are you referring to? Are you referring to the hdmi adapter in the middle instead of a straight cable from the remote to the headset?

[@I2AT]

Yes sir. Wondering if it’s possible to do usb to usb from the controller to headset

[@AlainSainz]

@@I2AT As far as I know, thats not possible. The adapter is what tells the headset that there's a video feed coming in. With only the usb cable the headset will think that only data and files will be transferred.

[@Parker-h6r]

Does this work with the mini 2

[@AlainSainz]

@@Parker-h6r I dont know if the Mini 2 remote has hdmi out through USB C. If it does, then it should work.

[@Parker-h6r]

It has a usb c on the bottom of and it has a cord to plug in you phone

[@ngochungnguyen551]

im new to this concept and i have a question, since Quest 3 has hdmi link now, can you plug in a thunderbolt 3/4 c to c cable directly to them?

[@AlainSainz]

@@ngochungnguyen551 for HDMI video input you will still need the video capture card. The Quest 3 wont understand that you want to feed it video if you connect it straight with the USB C cable. It will assume you want to transfer just data.

[@ngochungnguyen551]

@@AlainSainzappreciate the reply. I’m currently trying to connect my quest 3 to n2 controller but nothing is popping up for some reason. Using hdmi capture

[@maxxxz]

Can't you put it on full screen?

[@AlainSainz]

@@maxxxz what do you mean full screen? That was full screen lol. Remember this is full 360 VR so "full screen" would be all around and would be distorted :)

[@AlainSainz]

@@maxxxz you can also make the screen as big or as small as you want.

[@shaunmk]

i tried, the connection was terrible 8fps

[@AlainSainz]

@@shaunmk that might due to your HDMI converter. It happened to me with another adapter I had.

[@shaunmk]

@@AlainSainz yes i did think of that...but apart from the name , mines virtually the same...will search for a better quality one... thanks for replying

[@AlainSainz]

@@shaunmk also try changing the resolution in the app in the headset. That also helps a bit.

[@shaunmk]

@@AlainSainz cheers, will try again in daylight... enjoy
