DJI just dropped their latest FPV goggles aimed at making immersive drone flying more accessible to newcomers. The new Goggles N3, priced at $229, offers pilots an impressive 54-degree field of view and up to 2.7 hours of flight time, according to DJI.
Enhanced Flight Control Features
With just a tilt of your head or a flick of the wrist using the DJI RC Motion 31, pilots can perform impressive aerial maneuvers including:
- 360° flips and rolls
- 180° lateral drifts
- One-tap power loops (with Avata 2)
Key Features That Set It Apart
The N3’s standout feature is its ultra-wide LCD screen, offering a larger 54-degree FOV compared to the Goggles 3’s 44 degrees. What’s really neat is that pilots can wear their prescription glasses while using them – no need for adjustable diopters. The integrated headband and battery design ensures balanced weight distribution for comfortable extended wear.
Tech Specs and Performance
The N3 comes equipped with DJI’s O4 transmission system, delivering:
- 1080p/60fps live feeds
- 31ms average latency
- Up to 13km transmission range
- Automatic frequency band selection between 2.4GHz and 5.8GHz
- New AR cursor functionality when paired with DJI RC Motion 3
Enhanced User Experience
One cool feature is the ability to share your flight view in real-time. Just connect the goggles to your smartphone via USB-C, and others can watch your flight through the DJI Fly App. There’s also a handy one-tap defogging feature that activates an internal fan to circulate air, keeping your view crystal clear in changing temperature and high-humidity conditions.
