DJI O3 FPV What Goggles Are Compatible & FPV.WTF OSD?

[@MadRC]

Hi Everyone, there is something I did not cover in this regarding the V2 and binding. Sadly the same issue that was there before in the V2 goggles that when you change mode you loose the bindings is very much there still today and now with O3. If you in DIY mode and move to O3 your DIY bindings will be lost. The same stands for moving from O3 to DIY, Avata or Potato mode. However the previous behaviour of just rebinding one and the rest come back still appears to be there. This is going to be a PITA for people who want to fly mixed system regularly and it’s sad DJI have not put a better solution in place for this with the updates. Thanks Mad.

[@SkyCandyVisuals]

That's a pretty big deal if you have a used worn vista unit that happens to have a broken bind button. Maybe there is a way to short the pins on the board to get it into binding mode? Other than that is there any other way like using bf? because if not and you bound to the o3 system you wouldn't be able to get reconnected later when wanting to use your damaged vista

[@jaechoe]

Serious PINA, hope it gets fixed.

[@jeff-w]

@@SkyCandyVisuals with a sewing pin you can easily short the pins. tap the two pads adjacent to the button. You need to short front to back pads on either side of the button. It's not too bad once you do it a few times.

[@itwasntme6446]

Great review. It is very sad seeing DJI abandon the V1 goggles like that after just one generation in between. It would be an absolute dream of mine to see DJI release an update for the V1.

[@changeagent228]

Yep theres no reason why not same as making the v1 controller work with the o3 air unit. They shafted our early adoption trust.

[@krazed0451]

That's what DJI do in all their ecosystems. From action cameras to drones, all the same behaviour.

[@goneviral6037]

What about Dji integra?

[@pinewaves_]

Thank you for taking out the time to make these videos

[@stephantertel]

Thank you Mad. I am still happy with the v1 (at least for a while), they support audio.

[@PIDtoolbox]

Great video! Don’t know if I missed this but if I upgrade my V2s to be compatible with the new O3 video tx, will my vistas and original AUs still work with my V2s? Do I need to update those older vtxs to this latest firmware?

[@stevenstringer8467]

You spoke about the V2 goggles and the 5.8hz antenna if using own controller. If you are using the DJI controller 2 with v2 goggles. If it can switch to 2.4hz what would be the best antenna option? Cheers.

[@AerialWaviator]

Exceptional content and presentation. Really appreciate the effort that into making multiple videos on this latest release, each with a specific audience focus. (vs. one long video).

[@ronniefpv]

I haven't rooted my V2 as yet, but can you still switch between the 03 and the vista with the new firmware.

[@leoponce82ponce]

great video. So for Goggle V2 and airunit O3, we need dual band antennas on the goggles? will performance take a hit if I only use 5.8GHz antennas?

[@creationlabsinc.189]

Only if your using the Dji controller is what I understand. Otherwise it’s only transmitting 5.8

[@rotorfpv4117]

can I buy new antennas luminair for v2 gogles and use avata and v2 controller? luminar is only for 5.8 ,not dual

[@p_fpv]

Thank you very much for your detailed Video! It helps me very much to decide to get an O3 Unit or not. I already running WTF.OS on my Goggles and my last question was if it is compatible and if i can use it afterwards with my other vista quads..

[@philippedellecase3916]

Are Integra goggles compatibles ? It should as they are an alternative to goggles 2 if you buy an Avata drone.

[@onceamantwiceaboy]

How does updating the firmware on the V2 to use the 03 air unit affect using existing vistas with the v2?

[@MadRC]

Nothing changes.

[@MadRC]

Nothing changes.

[@gcdevicegc6103]

So the vista can be on any lower firmware, but the goggles can be on different but higher firmware.??? And the signal quality is the same?

[@joanjimenezfrias8037]

Hi, I have one question how about video out ? I guess that the video output from the goggle 2 are 1080p with the o3, does the fpv v2 with o3 still 800p video output or 1080p ?

[@garymorris6819]

Thanks for the detailed information... I'm still on the fence about which goggles to upgrade to. By the looks of it, I might go with the new Goggle 2 instead of the V2!

[@michaelhatcher2317]

[@jefffpv2759]

i wonder if you could flash the v1 goggles with the v2 firmware and trick the 03 unit into compatibility

[@DanielLewisSEO]

I had a V2 and really liked them but got rid of them because they were not compatible with my Mini 4 Pro. But now I have an Avata 2 and do not like the new ones quite as much. I can not seem to get it to give me as clear of a picture as the V2 did. Can i use the V2 with the Avata 2?

[@wakingdreamfpv]

Is the root hack just for canvas mode or is this for the 1200ml hack? Also If we have Lumineer patch antenna this could make it worse on O3? Could we have patch and original antennas up top at the same time?

[@ryswe]

Thanks for this video, I was very curious how WTFOSD would work into the mix of updating my v2 goggles!

Many pilots like me will have many old air unit, and race drones builds, I need to know if the new goggles are compatible with old air units. Thank you.

[@Rcschim]

Again - thanks for this very helpful video. I've already heard buddies talk about the need to root the Gv2 BEFORE the firmware update (and they heard it from your video of course ;) Funny thing: I flew 99% with my V1 goggles over the last years. The I got the DJI FPV Drone when it came out - and like most pilots only flew it a couple of times. Since this I also only used the V2 goggles seldom - they are basically brand new. Love it that now they have a new purpose in their short product life ;)

[@PauliusMorku]

Great video, but I still miss one important detail. If you upgrade rooted v2 goggles to the newest firmware, does root access allow reverting to previous firmware? Or you still end up locked in the newest firmware without the chance to downgrade?

[@MadRC]

You can never downgrade but the root says as far as I know.

[@ddano007]

I saw a comment somewhere, but haven't seen it in any reviews, that you have to rebind any vista's if you switch between 03 and Vista, is that true? Sounds like a massive deal breaker for me since I still want to fly all my old Vista/links as well.

i just want to know if the goggles 2 are going to work with the DJI FPV drone. it would be awesome if they did a firmware update for it.

[@krisgleave]

I know it’s not the best video to comment on (I missed the last live stream) however do you think DJI will ever add compatibility to bind the Controller 2 to the Air Unit or Vista? I’ve just managed to buy a DJI FPV Combo Refurb for £575 and will be selling the FPV Drone and keeping the controller and goggles (great deal I know). Now I will need a drone and never flown digital before but some analogue. Wanted to pick up a Vista maybe for my Cinelog 25 Analogue and convert but would love to just use the small controller 2 at some stage rather than TX16S and ExpressLRS. Alternatively do I just punt for a brand new quad with O3 air unit and maybe get the new F5X Nazgul? Or are you aware of any small Cinewhoops coming with O3 soon? What are your thoughts?

[@REAL_N3W]

So if you have the V1 you have 4 choices the V2, the Goggle 2, Walksnail or hd Zero :D you always need a new Goggle. Or just stay at V1

[@moskafpv8296]

Of course stay in V1 until the market and community provide a better solution/product. There are no reason enough to change. Wtf bring to V1 much more life.
