Awesome video! I really appreciated that you just let there be some silence in-between parts and you didn't go with any kind of high anxiety KZread song to fill it. I really appreciate that. Great video man.

What was the issue with your fan? I have a *brand new pair* and the fan isn't running, and they keep rebooting after a few minutes. Is this a hard repair? DJI wants 15 days to do a replacement.

Thanks man. I just ordered some fresh packs from pyro hoping next week I can get some flight time in again!

awsome dont know how but the head band screws cracked off??? No idea, so thanks for the quick no bs breakdown!

DJI authorities : let's make the goggle with so many screws that if anyone tries break in, would get tired putting out screws

I just wanted to see how the SMA connectors are mounted since I have a broken SMA bracket. Not going down this road.

Sorry for a dumb question...what size are the screws in front that holds the aluminum cover...must buy new ones

Hi, my V2 sometimes power up but left eye remains black. I have to restart them to get both screens working. Do you think this is fixable? it may be some loose connector, right?

since you tear down and rebuild these let me ask you this . does this goggle have a actual fan that removes heat from the eyecup area ?i know it has a fan that cools the electronics but i am more interested in if it has a actual fan to reduce fogging in the eyecup area ? i ask because i sweat easy and fogging is a issue with most goggles for me .

what's the screw type of headband mounting plate ?

really interesting. I find that max IPD (inter pupillary distance) is not 70mm on mine. From your point of view, is there a way to increase by 1mm / 1.5 mm the IPD ? it seems to be possibe in the video at 15h50 by trim 2 slot screw and external side of lenses.

After all that you STILL didn't get into the optics where you could clean a stray hair off a lens or screen. Any advice for going further? Is it possible? Thanks for a breakdown of a complicated disassembly!

Can the lens covers be removed easily, I need to polish out some small scratches on then and would prefer to remove them to polish the scratches, thanks.

Could I essentially take a pair apart and hardwire a tablet or screen instead of projecting into the eyepiece to make a STANDALONE dji fpv MONITOR. I know u can be wired to a pair and use the app and alll that. But can I make a stand alone monitor based around the actual video Rx?

Much appreciated. I am tearing down two goggles to try and combine them into a stereoscopic (3D) digital system.

Can I ask you what you think about those battery powered screwdrivers?

How hard would it be to replace the USB-C/ MICRO SD Slot Board on the front side of the Goggles. It almost seems like you could get it from the front, but from your videos it seems that you might have to tear it down completely like you did to get that outside panel off... i found a replacement and now that i see it uses a ribbon cable, i would love to replace it bc its not too expensive for the part and then i would have a tight usb-c port again. I bought them with the dji fpv drone so i could basically get best of both worlds plus a dji remote controller 2 to start out with or I have frsky, but want a TX16S w/ crossfire. Do you think its worth the trouble of taking it apart to replace the usbc port board? Im pretty sure you can connect it to your phone and then someone can watch the live view on the phone and it should have audio also. I always wear my headphones i love having the audio on low in the background lol.. I have the V2s but theyre basically the same i heard. did you not use the A/V out port for video out in the past when the usb c video out wasnt working yet? Geat videos and really applies to the new air unit as well, theyre very similiar in how they work and seyup, wiring, programming, etc..

Hello, could anybody help me I need to know the size of screws for head strap bracket?

Hello, I'm from Brazil, I have the dji goggles and I need to repair the back button, do you know where the BLD1920 board is sold.

S Ali Imam On another video I do, I tear the goggles down and they are dual display

DJI FPV goggles breakdown- 21 things I think about them: 1. You should spend the extra $15 for the not included extra cushiony foam padding accessory or 3rd party option. That's a given. 2. No audio is transmitted to goggles. Deal killer for many. Not so much for me, I can fly without it. 3. They feel like wearing a brick on your face. You'll spend some time working on the fit to get them tolerable to your face. 4. You have to wear a 4s battery on the back of your head to balance out the weight of the goggles in the front that make your face droop down. 5. You need an SMA female (female pin) to RP-SMA male (female pin) Adapter to use them with other antennas. 6. The OSD only supports some of the data: List here: air-war.org/Graphics/DJI%20Supported%20OSD%20Elements.jpg 7. OSD font can't be changed, and is tiny and white variable width font that is lost on a bright background. I switch off OSD entirely as unusable. 8. Fan will blow under your glasses into your eyeballs. Not enjoyable. 9. No HDMI output port. You can get HDMI output if you buy another $600 DJI controller, but... not worth it. 10. Goggles in Audience mode can't request to retransmit garbled frames or packets from air unit, so reception will be noticebly worse than on master goggles. 11. Air unit gets frigging hot fast sitting on the bench even in 25mw power mode. Blow a very aggressive fan on it. 12. Changing regional country area and max output power up to 1200mw is a trivial matter of dragging on two text files to the goggles 13. You will need to register a DJI account and provide email address just to activate and upgrade firmware on either goggles or air unit. Deal killer for many, including myself - I setup a warez account with bogus email address. 14. A channel bonded 50mbs mode is now supported. Nice but not revolutionary - 5ghz wifi routers have been doing it for years. Free freqency map by Propwashed showing upon what frequencies the channels fall upon (or step upon) is here: air-war.org/graphics/5ghz%20Frequency%20Chart%2050mghz%20DJI.jpg 15. No geofencing as far as I know, but I haven't tested in off limit areas such as Area 51 or over the White House Lawn yet. 16. The video image is the best currently out there, but it's not imax or a religious experience. Two screens displaying the exact same pixles in the exact same location for two different eyeballs is a waste of money ihmo. I'd rather have box goggles and get 2x more unique pixels instead. 17. Range is pretty fantastic... supposedly up to 6km LOS; 10km LOS with directional high gain antennas. Top antennas transmit and recieve. Bottom antennas recieve only. 18. Despite what reviewers say, I still would rather fly in 16:9 instead of 4:3 and stretch the image in post. 19. The front face plate is removable with two screws, and you can put an adapter on it for FatShark style analog reciever modules, or hydrodip the front face place to personalize it. Switching to analog isn't seamless (i.e. you can't use buttons on side), you have to drill down the menus to AV input, and also.. if the feed gets staticy it will blank out the image entirely to screensaver. The menu system is easy to use. 20. I think the recorded DVR quality is pretty acceptable, *if* you can fly your quad super smooth without vibration (as there is no image stabilization). Latest Betaflight adds more filtering and you can tweak out vibration even more looking at the blackbox data... so... it's no GoPro 8 or Insta360 One R, but... it's fine and acceptable. The 720p recordings hide vibrations and jello better than the 1080 higher resolution I noticed, so... you may find better image quality actually by bumping the record setting down to 720p. 21. Should you buy them? I can't answer that for you. I hate mine, but then I'm a new consumer coming from a Gaming environment with 1080p 23" mnitors and not an old school quad builder that suffered with analog for a decade before hand.. What are you going to do, they are still the best out there :-/ I hate mine so much, I'd rather just not go out and fly with them, and I'd rather just stay home and play in Liftoff instead. It is what it is. If you do want to buy them, DJI has sales on their products right before Father's Day, maybe Christmas too, so you can save $50 bucks and buy them then. This is what it feels like to me wearing the DJI FPV goggles. esp with glasses also on, a 4s Liion pack on my back head, and long range antennas jutting out the front. Did I mention the air blowing on your eyeballs. I did. It's not enjoyable: www.indiewire.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/facehugger.jpg What I did was drag some FPV video files off KZread onto the SD card, and just had to sit around at the house for many hours trying to adjust the fit and get as use to them as best I could and watch pre-recorded video on them. Still, I'd rather not wear them, and hate putting them on. I'm probably the biggest hater of them, however, so I guess take that with a grain of salt. fpv.air-war.org

Sorry for delay I had no alert to your message I only discovered when I returned to this video. There's no official announcement for one that fits on a set of Fatsharks and such. DJI issued a standalone module for racing events that outputs low latency but you can't buy it. You can get the smart controller for $700 which gives you hdmi out but it has 100ms latency so is only good for spectators. There are a few folks working on a cheaper hack using a raspberry pi but it also has bad latency and also suffers frame distortion like seen running a secondary headset in spectator mode.

Moving the screens, rather than moving the optics only in the binocular system when adjusting the IPD setting must be why the DJI doesn't seem to get much edge distortion since the optics are always directly in line with the screens.
