In this video I test the DJI Goggles 3 with the DJI Air 3 (also works for the Mini 4 Pro), and.... I wasn't too impressed. You loose so many features from the Air 3 when using the goggles, that I won't be using them together. DJI, if you see this, please let us use all of the Air 3's feature in the goggles!

00:00 – Air 3 w/ Goggles 3 Setup
04:00 – First Flight
04:50 – No 3X camera???
05:47 – Limited settings and interface
08:21 – Air 3 FPV mode VS Real FPV w/ Avata 2
10:26 – Why I won't be using the Goggles 3 w/ my Air 3

    DJI is making baby steps, before the Goggles 3 arrived, your only controller option was to fly the Air 3 with the Motion 2. And now we can use the DJI RC 2 instead of the Motion 2 or Motion 3. But as you showed in the video, flying the Air 3 without the Fly app, and in its place the Avata 2 goggle interface software makes it an entirely different experience, and not in good way. Great video, and thanks for sharing.
  • Thanks! Other video's on using Goggles 3 with the D4P completely skip pairing with a phone that has the DJI Fly app, and I was unable to get my R2 to pair with the goggles. Your instruction are spot on and I am flying!
  • @TomBoudewijns
    Great review. As long as you can't control the drone with the RC2 and use the goggles as a second screen I'm sticking with the old fashioned way. Pretty annoying that you can't use all the functions and have a totally different interface
  • @mrngreenthumb
    Agreed need to just use the headset as a monitor extension , not a controller if required would be fantastic device for photography also.
  • @sagienaicker2064
    That was a good assessment. The deal breaker is not being able to use the 3 X zoom. Probably DJI may do firmware updates to bring this to the Goggles 2 and 3. I have read that you can use the zoom function in the Mavic 3 Pro in the “explore mode” and motion controller in the Mavic 3 Pro.
  • @smokingtrez
    I think it’s an amazing piece of technology. I did notice you can still zoom in with the scroll wheel just not as far. My biggest problem was the screen was never bright enough unless you had a towel over your head lol so the goggles are a welcome upgrade in that respect. Thanks for the video there’s not many out there.👍
  • completely disagree… its my favourite way to fly, three times zoom makes no sense for fpv, rage is amazing on air 3, camera too, the obstacle avoidance feels like you are in a F35 and you’ve just had a missile lock on you with the little red curved bars and beeps, plus you can go 75kph with the motion controller! and the motion controller feels like a joystick, i love how they locked the gimbal roll too so you feel the roll of the drone. I say well done DJI!
  • @deejaybriez2341
    Cruise control is disabled while using the goggles as well....
  • @mlentsch
    nice video. subbed. what's in the greenhouse?
  • @Blueskyver
    Great review. I'm subbing. Greetings from Montreal, Canada.
  • @lankie1969
    have the mini 4 pro and the goggles 3........not the best combo at the moment.
  • Now mini 4 pro giving me notice that googles are binded and can fly 5 more times .. fix ?
  • @LandOverview
    Surprised that you can't just use the goggles for bright sunlight second view only because the screens in their remotes are just not bright enough and for outdoor use at that price they should of used decent very bright screens with much less glare and again some rely on third party screens which is a hassle you should not have.
  • @Kafrifelle
    My biggest turn off is the fact I can’t do bracketing shots and vertical shots with my Mini 4 pro which is my main use of that drone. FIX THIS DJI
  • @pandadrone413
    And b able tu use ur fingers on the screen i\as a pointer in the googles
  • @changeagent228
    Do you have dead pixels on your Goggles 3's? I'm returning a third pair and DJI insist dead pixels are normal and 6 is a low number.
  • @gregpate4554
    I think you may need to stop recording to switch cameras. Might give that a try. 🤷‍♂️ Let us know if that works.
