The DJI Goggles N3 are a pair of FPV (First Person View) goggles designed for use with DJI aircraft, offering an immersive flight experience. They provide a live video feed from the aircraft's camera, allowing users to see what the drone sees in real-time.
Function Description:
The primary function of the DJI Goggles N3 is to provide an immersive FPV experience for piloting DJI drones. They receive and display a live video feed from compatible aircraft, allowing for precise control and an engaging flight perspective. The goggles also feature various controls for navigating menus, adjusting camera settings, and managing video playback. They support linking with compatible DJI aircraft and remote control devices, enabling a seamless connection for flight operations. Additionally, the goggles can store recorded footage on a microSD card and allow for sharing of the live view with smartphones or other goggles. Head tracking functionality is also available for certain aircraft, allowing users to control the aircraft's horizontal orientation and gimbal tilt with head movements.
Important Technical Specifications:
While specific detailed technical specifications are not provided in the excerpt, the manual indicates that users can visit https://www.dji.com/goggles-n3/specs for full specifications. However, some key features can be inferred:
- Video Transmission: The goggles are designed to receive high-definition video transmission from compatible DJI aircraft.
- Display: They feature internal lenses and foam padding for comfortable viewing.
- Connectivity: Includes a USB-C port for connecting to smartphones or PCs, and a microSD card slot for storage.
- Power: Powered by an internal battery, with charging indicators (Solid Green, Solid Yellow, Solid Red for battery level; Pulses Yellow, Pulses Green, Solid Green for charging status).
- Antennas: Equipped with antennas for signal reception.
- Controls: Incorporates a Power Button, Back Button, and a 5D Button for menu navigation and control.
- Headband: Features a headband with an adjustment knob for a secure fit.
- Audio: Lacks an internal speaker but supports Type-C headphones with built-in DAC via the USB-C port.
Usage Features:
- Powering On/Off and Battery Check: A single press of the power button checks the battery level, while a press and hold for two seconds powers the goggles on or off.
- Wearing the Goggles: Users unfold the antennas, put on the goggles, and adjust the headband length using the adjustment knob for a comfortable and secure fit. It's crucial to avoid tearing or scratching the foam padding and to handle the non-detachable power cable with care.
- Activation and Firmware Update: The goggles require activation and firmware updates via the DJI Fly app on a smartphone connected to the internet before first use. Firmware can also be updated using DJI Assistant 2 (Consumer Drones Series) on a computer.
- Linking: The goggles can be linked to aircraft and remote control devices via the DJI Fly app (recommended) or by pressing and holding the power buttons on the respective devices in a specific sequence.
- FPV View: Provides an immersive first-person view during flight. When using a motion controller, a circle indicates the aircraft's heading direction.
- Goggles Buttons:
- Back Button: Returns to the previous menu or exits the current view.
- 5D Button: Opens various menus from the FPV view, navigates through menus, adjusts parameter values, confirms selections, and controls video playback.
- Opening the Menu:
- Shortcut Menu: Pushing the 5D button backward from the FPV view opens the shortcut menu for quick settings.
- Camera Settings: Pushing the 5D button forward opens the camera settings panel, allowing users to adjust parameters by pushing right.
- Main Goggles Menu: Pressing down the 5D button or pushing it to the right from the FPV view opens the main menu.
- AR Cursor: Supported with DJI RC Motion 3 (motion controller). The AR Cursor (white line with a circle) allows interaction with the goggles screen. It can be recentered by holding the motion controller as shown and pressing the dial. The cursor may need tilting the motion controller up or down to appear if not visible.
- Operating the Menu with Motion Controller: Move the cursor to the arrow on the left side of the screen and gently press the accelerator to open the menu. Use the joystick to scroll up or down. To exit, push the accelerator forward or gently press it when the cursor is on an empty spot. The cursor can also be moved to the top or bottom arrows to access the shortcut menu or camera settings, respectively. The joystick scrolls left or right in these menus.
- Controlling Video Playback: When playing videos from the microSD card, the 5D button can pause/resume, adjust the progress bar (push left/right), and access playback settings/brightness/volume (push backward). The accelerator can also pause/resume, adjust the progress bar (move cursor left/right while pressing down), and access playback settings/brightness/volume (move cursor to top arrow and press down).
- Goggles Footage Storage and Export: Supports microSD cards for recording the live view simultaneously with the aircraft. Footage can be exported by connecting the goggles to a PC via USB-C or by removing the microSD card and using a card reader.
- Formatting the SD Card: The microSD card can be formatted via the goggles menu (Settings > Camera > Format). Users are warned that data cannot be recovered after formatting.
- Liveview Sharing: DJI Goggles N3 can share the flight liveview:
- Wired Connection with Smartphone: Connect the goggles to a smartphone via USB-C and use the DJI Fly app.
- Broadcasting to Other Goggles: One pair of goggles acts as the "Pilot" (broadcasting) and other goggles as "Audience" (receiving). Both must select the same aircraft model.
- Panorama Video Playback: Videos can be imported to a microSD card, inserted into the goggles, and played back with display switch settings accessible via the 5D button.
- Head Tracking: Available for certain aircraft, enabling control of the aircraft's horizontal orientation and gimbal tilt through head movements.
- Direct Remote ID: Allows uploading the UAS Operator Registration Number to the aircraft via the DJI Fly app when the goggles are connected to a mobile device.
Maintenance Features:
- Replacing the Foam Padding: The foam padding can be gently removed and replaced by aligning positioning columns with holes and pressing along the contour until a click is heard.
- Cleaning and Maintenance:
- Clean the surface with a soft, dry, clean cloth.
- Clean lenses with a lens cleaning cloth in a circular motion from the center outwards.
