I have both the moverio bt-300 and the dji goggles and love them both dearly for different purposes. On big bonus of having both is you can use them both at the same time so you and a friend could enjoy live immersive FPV together while exploring. The bt-35e looks a little more cumbersome to use in the field than the bt-300 since you don't need a phone/crystal sky with bt-300 !
Vracan, I've taken my Kids Flying, using the Old P4, Mavic PRO and the White DJI Goggles on Head tracking Gimbal mode. They Love the freedom or control to look where they want and the Camera points there. I can't wait to play with my new Mavic Zoom too. Where the Epson Moverios shine is for camera, DJI GO4, superimposed, picture in picture with your normal line of Sight for the Pilot. It's great that we are Spoiled for choices with Goggles, Glasses, display tablets and Drone models. These types of reviews are great to showcase new Technologies and the options available for those with the $$$$.
Excellent review! Epson should be very happy with this review. Tell them to send a production one for a give-away contest ;-) 2 great points of your video that sold me on them: A - having non-tech ppl try them out - great reactions. B - Showing us the image we would see AND seeing everything else. Stunning. $900 US dollars is steep - but never having to take goggles off to address ppl - PRICELESS! Good job, Captain!
Hi, I haven't been able to directly connect my BT-35e glasses to the Autel EVO ll Pro controller. I spent hours trying. However, I now have two different methods that work. The first is the obvious use of Live Deck that I have connected to the 2200nits Feelworld FW279 7" monitor that has an HDMI output. The second method is to use iPad Mini 5 Screen mirroring (or Android Miracast) to wirelessly go to a $20 AnyCast device. Initial setup is a PITA, but once figured out the wireless connection to the glasses is solid.
I tried the bt300. But found them uncomfortable to wear and I didn't like the contoller that set used. These look an improvement on the 300s. As just a viewing option without the control they use to have.
Glad to see Tammi back on the channel. BTW #3... SkyZone HD Googles are smaller and can work with my Drones.The price of the BT-35E Glasses is more than the price of a good quality drone. Kinda pricey at $1200 for use with my drones. 5:54.. At only 1000 feet distance your drone is virtually invisible....let alone at a few kilometers. If they were the price of DJI goggles then the BT-35E Glasses would be interesting to get.
Very wise deduction... I'd get them as well. I bought DJI goggles that came with my Mavic Air, and they are great but at the cost of bulkiness and closed view.
Agreed, we have the BT300 and I can't understand why these are actually more for less? You don't get the controller so where is the cost going? If these were $350 we would be all over them but at $900 that is way too much.
I have the BT-300 glasses. Its the only way to fly. It is amazing flying the P4P. The glasses give you true first person view while flying. Plus, with the BT-300 glasses and the included android controller running DJIgo4 app, I get the full heads up display with all the flight parameters you would see on your Crystal Sky, iPad, or iPhone. Fantastic flying and highly recommended. It is expensive but well worth the investment.
I connected my Epson Moverio bt-35e to my DJI Mini 2 using Samsung S10+ by connecting wireless display to glasses and using miricast to connect to glasses. I have to use power bank to supply power for glasses and Wireless Display but it works. I used J5Create ScreenCast HDMI/USB-A Wireless Display Adapter With USB Cable (JVAW56).
Dear Captain, I’m DJI CrystalSky User. Moverio BT-35 is more useful & easier to use for DJI Drones(Especially Mavic 2 Pro,Zoom,Air,Inspire 2…) than Moverio BT-300? I ‘d like to use to fly Drones ,with CrystalSky & BT-35E easily than Moverio BT-300 touch pad inconvenience. Could you check my question and reply, please?
Hi , I appreciate all your video and I have a question for you regarding at MOVERIO SMART GLASSES! I need to know if can I connect them to the any smart device like thermo camera provided with the wifi connection. Regards, Giurgiu
Thanks for the review. I can see they are slightly different to the BT-300. However, would you recommend one over the other? I’ve just received the BT-300 and find that they are very slow in downloading from the Moverio store. The controller also gets warm, even while just idling. Did you find this to be the case with your review sample?
Omar, I don't recall any real issues with the BT-300, other than getting used to them. The main difference with the BT 35E is that these glasses don't require an APP to run, they can just plug into most devices that have an HDMI port or USB-C video port. Also the design of how they attach to your head is a big improvement because it keeps the glasses very still on your head so the image looks clear with no movement from the glasses.
CAPTAIN DRONE, thanks for coming back to me. I’ve arrange to exchange mine for a new set. When I spoke with Epson, they advised that they shouldn’t get warm, but it can get very warm just in use without charging. I was tempted to just return them and purchase the BT-35e, as I like the idea of not being restricted to the Android controller that comes with it. But I use an iPhone, and as far as I know, there’s no way to output HDMI while connected to the Mavic, unless I’m missing something. Do you know of any way to use the BT-35 with an iPhone and Mavic? Thanks Btw, you just got yourself a new subscriber :)
If I live and breathed DJI only drones, then the BT300 is the one because it supports all DJI. If I used many different products, drones, laptops, TVs, etc, then the BT35E would be great.
Wow. Good review. I have the DJI goggles but don’t use them much because of having to have a spotter with me to keep Visual Line of Sight. I like the head tracking mode with the DJI Goggles. Would I be right in thinking that these would not have the head tracking feature?
No lie bro, this was a good ass review. $899, US is mad high, but if I had the bread for the glasses, I would get it. DJI could learn from the old printer people lol.
I have been, in the past, a strong advocate of the Epson BT 300. Augmented reality is much better than virtual-reality for the drone pilot. The real issue became the extra set up time and more things to carry around. Most video photography is done in short simple shots. Each shot is within visual line of sight. Each shot can be run with a simple intelligent flight mode. Tapfly and Point of Interest satisfy most needs. So now I subscribe to the keep it simple, low-cost solution of using my iPhone.
Wow!! Awesome video!! I'm re-thinking of getting the DJI goggle! Yes a couple of hundred dollars more but I don't need a spotter by law!! Thanks again Captain!!
Would you personally recommend this glasses for flying drone or its better to use BT300 ? Will they work with ipad via lightning hdmi cable ? I use drone for taking pictures and movies. I heard that some people don't find comfortable using BT300 controller...Thank you very much for your advise and i must admit that your reviews are very helpful and good.
I think it depends on what your needs are. The BT300 are designed to work with all DJI drones and the BT35E will work with any type of drone or computer or TV or whatever, as long as there is an HDMI output to plug into. You could always buy and try and if not happy return them. Check first to make sure you can return if not happy.
I don't know if they will work with the lightning cable (I don't know if that cable sends power or video). The BT300 have a different design to sit on your head than the BT35E. I think the BT35E are more comfortable.
So, you cannot connect them to the smartphone or Mavic controller without the little box, which is only supplied with the previous version of the glasses, right? So what's the point?
I just got a flyer about these and I can see where they are the thing but cost 1 kazillian dollars. I need to sell my car so I can get a set. Best reviewer on the internet. Great detailed report and review as always.
Wow Steve those Epsons are awesome. I think one day they will be a nice addition to my drone accessories but at that price point right now I'd like to try enjoying more drones from different companies. I believe in the next year or so there's going to be a good amount of quality drones that I'd like to try first. Then maybe I sell a couple to purchase those awesome glasses.
I’m getting the by-35 Moverio glasses, how did you power up the box, i will be flying my Mavic 2 pro and phantom 4pro plus drones, will everything power up and work right, B&h photos where I’m purchasing said both drones will work fine, please tell me they will work, you are my fav UA-camdrone guy please tell me your thoughts
They will work with the Mavic 2 Pro as long as you are using the Smart Controller which has the HDMI out. They will also work with the Phantom 4 Pro Plus because that controller has the built in HDMI out. In my example in this video, I powered them off of the Crystal Sky USB port.
I owned the Epson Moverio BT200 version. I elected to replace them with the larger, heavier DJI Goggles for one main reason: The Epson Moverio does not address Pupillary Distance Adjustment. Not being able to adjust the projection to effectively line up with each eyeball evenly, made for a poor experience. DJI obviously considered the fact that the distance between different individual's eyes might differ, and provided that adjustment to their system. I really wish that Epson would follow that example. This wonderful technology is worthless, if it's difficult to see what you're looking at - Good review though - Please keep up the great work!
Miquael. I think they fixed that in the BT300 and onward by spreading the image wider. With my FATSHARK goggles, I do need to adjust the distance for my eyes, but with teh Moverio's I don't. I've let six other people try them and they all found that the image was great for them (all have different eye distance).
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 I tried the BT300 and they did not fix the IPD issue. I'm guessing it's the same with these. It's unfortunate that something so expensive can't be adjusted for people with large interpupilary distances.
I just got the bt 300 and love love love them! I think the qualities that make the 35e more expensive is unrelated to flying drones. Still getting used to Android since I come from iOS but there is more similarity than differences so the switch was painless.
We have the 300 and I hated them because of all the cables, setup time and they really were uncomfortable and hard to see through with my glasses on. I didn't want to spend the extra $200 for the prescription inserts so I gave them to my partner who doesn't need glasses. I also found them to be hard to see in bright sunlight even with the dark filter attached. These seem like a better fit as I can still use the screen when I want. The down side is you have to have the Crystal sky with HDMI out.
Have a mavic 2 pro can you tell me which epson glasses i should get as your video doesn’t compare the bt 300 to bt 35 e. . For instance are the bt 35 e a better quality imaging system or is it only one has a controller the other not, as the main difference.. I don’t have a crystal sky unit so i guess i wont be able to get hdmi out from the controller that came with the drone. What should I do please .
Hi, I seem a bit late to the party but I definately want a pair of Moverio's. I own a Mavic 2 Zoom and a pair of DJI RE Goggles but am limited as to when I can use them because of VLOS laws ( I can't always persuade my brother or friends to watch my drone). This seems like a good solution. I wonder whether these BT-35E's would link up nicely to the tripltek 8 pad?
I fly both the Mavic Air and the Mavic Air 2 using an iPad mini 5. If I were to get the Crystal Sky 5.5" monitor would I be able to use the BT-35e glasses with both drones and DJI go 4/dji fly boos. Thank you for any information
I have the Epson BT-300 and I use it with my DJI Mavic and Phantom. I noticed that the new Epson glasses don't have a touchpad anymore. Is that meet you can't install the DJI Go app on to the glasses? You always have to tether off an HDMI or USB-C port of other devices?
Great review Captain. I have a Mavic Pro and an Autel EVO. Any way to use these with the Autel EVO at this time? Would feel better about buying them if they could be used on a non DJI product as well.
how good are the colors of projection? do they look as good as a real monitor infront of you or are they washed out to some degree like projections usually are?
From my old eyes the image/colors was anything but washed out. It all depends on the background and how your brain processes the image. As soon as your brain filters out the background all as perfect. The sun shades help with this.
I just purchased the BT-35E glasses. I fly both the Mavic 2 Pro and DJI FPV drones. I use the DJI Smart Controller to fly the M2P and it was very easy to hook up these glasses to that Smart Controller and that worked great. On the DJI FPV I was not able to use the glasses. The review led me to believe that I could replace the DJI Goggles with these glasses but I do not see how that it is possible or I am missing something. I see no way to cable the DJI FPV controller to the glasses control box. Am I missing a required component? The review says you can leave the DJI Goggles at home and just use the glasses but I don't see how that is accomplished. Please help me to understand because the ability to fly without a Visual Observer was what attracted me to this product. Thank you!
Yup, you missed the point. These glasses are for people who live in countries that require visual site of their drone at all times, hence you see through the goggles. In addition, it was shown they require an HDMI out to function.
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 The FAA requires people in the US to have visual site of their drones. I am able to use it with my Mavic drone and other Mavics also so thank you for introducing me to that. I still maintain though that these glasses cannot be used to replace the DJI FPV drone Goggles V2 as you suggested in your video. I hope you prove me wrong. Thank you!
Dang, that's some sweet tec! Hope they will develop it further and in the end the price drops. Also the connection to other screens could be more elegant. But hey, still very cool.
Hey awesome review! Just want to clarify - you used the BT-300 which had a touch pad to control the device! But the BT-35E has no controller but can only mirror the connected device, is this right?
Hi Steve, I'm not sure if you neglected to cover this or if I missed the information in your video. Please tell me how much latency there is in the video displayed in the BT-35E glasses. I know the DJI goggles have some amount to the tune of 270-400 milliseconds (1/4 to nearly 1/2 second delay). a method to calculate this is to set up a camera (probably your DJI Spark) set a stopwatch that displays hundredths or thousandths of a second increments in front of the camera and record the stopwatch at 60p or 120p, set another camera, Crystal Sky screen, and BT-35E screens all at the same frame at the same time, record those at the highest framerate possible (120, 480, 1000fps) I know standard FPV VGA video is down to near
There should be zero latency. The reason is the glasses are just a display. They will just mirror the latency in the device you are using. So if you plug them into a Crystalsky, the latency will be what the Crystalsky is rated for.
Hey Captain ! Use the BT300 since a view month! After aligning the Bt300 properly on the head, is the pic quality better / clearer / cleaner on the BT 35E ? Or is it the same? FYI In bright sun light I tested Cristalsky 7.85 1000nit , Galaxy Note 8, IPhone 7, they all give you bad reflections like a mirror so its difficult to see anything ! But the BT 300 is free of reflections when wearing a cap! The Pic is very contrasty! So the BT 300 won, even the resolution is only 1280x720 as it is also on the BT35E, but this is secondary !
I'm told by EPSON that people may find the image better on the BT35E because of how the glasses secure to the head (more stable). But, I do believe it is the same image.
Hello Captain. I love all your videos. I have a cuestion. I have the Evo2 and the tablet Tripltek 6gb is the normal version., and i wanna buy the epson moverio bt35e so i need to know if i can used this glasses with mi equipment. Thank you very much. And please keep doing nice videos like this. 🤗❤️👍
Dear Captain, May I have a question? Q1 : I have all kinds of DJI drones & DJI CrystalSky 7.85” monitor and 5.5” monitor. If I have CrystalSky monitors, There is no problem to use Moverio BT-35E with DJI Drones? Could you check my question and reply, please? If there is no problem to use it, I’d like to buy Moverio BT-35E, ASAP. Finally, Thank you so much for Great review. Reply for my question, please. Best Regards
Kim. If you have a Crystalsky monitor, the Crystalsky will work with all DJI drones. With the Crystalsky you could also use the Moverio BT-35E with all DJI drones.
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 , I really appreciate it for your reply. I ordered Epson Moverio BT-35E, today. I receive BT-35E tomorrow. I’m looking forward to see your great review, continuously . Thanks a lot, again. Captain.
As a reviewer, I get plenty of items for review & some go back to the distributor after review, like the Moverio. For me, a guy who reviews drones and accessories, there is very little time to enjoy such glasses, so at this time, I have no requirement for them.
Great review, thanks. At 10.08 you note that the glasses camera needs an app and does not currently function for drone users (at the time you posted the video). Are you aware of any apps that would allow the use of the camera for a drone user? For example, on one job I had to fly the drone through a trail with vegetation on both sides and above to give the viewer a sense of walking the trail, no problem. But, I also wanted to record video for marketing purposes that showed the drone flying through tight spots. My current solution was to have another person use a GoPro to capture that video.
These are cool, and I like that you're not depending on the Glasses to run the drone app (DJI Go or whatever), but this also means that the device you're running the drone app on needs to have an HDMI Out port. Most devices don't. I use an iPad Mini, so these wouldn't work with that. Or am I missing something?
Flying with Stan You need either an HDMI out (some tablets have this, besides the Crystal sky and Phantom 4 pro) or a very modern USB-C that sends the video signal.
Great review, Captain Drone, and a great looking family as well. With all due respect, Mrs. Drone is such a fabulous babe, (as they say...), a true delight for the eyes in league with those BT-35E's !
A great review CAPT Drone. These represent some nifty piece of technology that's actually been used in the aircraft maintenance industry recently. A little pricey but the tech is impressive. I am waiting like a hawk until the prices take a dip so I can snatch up a pair.
For the Mavic Air you would require a Crystalsky or an Android Tablet with an HDMI output to use these glasses. If you don't have those then you'd have to use the BT300.
BT300 would you recommend these over the Crystalsky as I am after the best Display for out and about in sunshine Droning ?? As you can appreciate glare and difficulty of seeing a Smartphone or Tablet in bright sunlight is a major pain as a Droner
Thanks Steve, but do they work well / are they compatible with the Mavic 2 Zoom and Pro as yet? Correct me if I'm wrong, but no one in UA-cam Land, seems to be using them, or the BT-300's with the Mavic 2 Zoom or Pro as yet.
Paul, apparently I am the first to review them in North America (as far as I'm told). Most drone pilots that are DJI drone pilots use the BT300 which have been on the market for awhile. The BT300 work with the ZOOM. The BT35E will only work with the ZOOM if you have a Crystalsky or an Android tablet with an HDMI out.
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 Thanks Steve, - tell me, is it probable that either the BT35E or the Mavic 2 will eventually have a firmware upgrade, so that they do become compatible with each other? Actually, when you know some more about this happening, please bring the details in another video - I believe there are a lot of drone pilots out there, wanting to find this out. At the moment its like the "missing link" that is preventing us from harnessing the best two technologies together ( best latest DJI drone and best latest Moverio glasses) for a light weight compact package !
Paul, I think this will depend on DJI. You see DJI considers any drone that is under the Phantom, to be an entry level drone for people wanting to get into drones so they leave out advanced features and keep everything basic and simple. For 99% of us that is just fine. For the Phantom and above they add more advanced features to the controller like the ability to turn the drone GPS on or off, as well as numerous ports (one of them being HDMI). If DJI ever comes out with a more advanced controller for the Mavic series, then all will be well. There has been talk of an advanced controller with a built in display, but I'm not convinced DJI is bringing that to the market soon due to cost.
what is the image in the corners like? is it blurry or distorted? is it unpleasant to look at the corners (eye muscle strain?) and in the center, is small text ledgible or is the display too small to comfortably view? basically: what would it be like viewing a 720p desktop on? cheers for the review!
You'd have to try them for yourself since everyone's eyes are different. These are not FATSHARK googles, in other words the corners are not what you think. No eye strain at all since it like wearing glasses and someone puts an image in front of your eyes that you can see through. Small text is easily viewable. DJI has just recently, in the past week, put out a video on the MOVERIO BT-300 glasses which shows a quick example of what you see.
Hi thanks for your info.. can you tell me if the newer moverio glasses, the 40s, will still work plugged into a dji smart controller video out port.. i believe there is some short of usb master conflict with the newer usb c connectors on the 40… if so is there a work around please.
I'm somewhat nearsighted. I am a new pilot. I love the concept and would love to use them. but am a bit worried about not using my prescription glasses to help keep sight of my phantom.
Jim, everyone's eye's and prescriptions are different so I could not say they would work with your eyes. You'd have to be sure that you could try them and return them if they don't meet your requirement.
that's about what i presumed the cost is, they'd be fun to use on the Mavic, though after my Evo arrives, this advanced Buzz Lightbeer tool is next.. - keep yer rotors on Top..
The drone controller can be used to provide power if there is a spare port. If not, you'd have to provide the power from another device. The video display can be anything you want as long as the smart box can connect to an HDMI port or USB-C port.
Wow, these would be great for even watching alternate tv programming while someone watches a different program on the tv. I wonder if they will have corrective snap on lenses where the sunglasses clip on so a person would not have to wear their glasses? Very nice review indeed.
Hi Capt. I purchased the BT-35E ; Do I need a crystal sky to make them work. My DJI P4P Controller doesn't have an HDMI it only has USB, I then bought a Tablet Fusion 5 w/ Windows 10 it won't allow me to down load Anafi Free Fly6 for the Thermal. Any advice or a detailed video would be much appriciated. Thanks; Bob
Hi Bob. You require a device with an HDMI out to use the BT-35. I have the P4P+ controller which allows me to use them with that. For all other DJI drones, I use the Crystal Sky which has the HDMI out. Also, I have tried loading the PARROT ANAFI App on the Crystal Sky. The results are not good because it tries to look for Google Maps, or a map source, and the Crystal Sky will not allow it to do that.
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 So the P4P + is the HDMI on the controller. I just read you can't use 3rd party with the plus. Their both about 500 bucks. Guess I'll buy the Crystal Sky. I tried the going from Lightning to HDMI. Nope. Any hope these companies will ever coordinate before launching a new product. Thanks for your reply.
My P4P+ controller has built in GPS and HDMI out. You can place 3rd party apps on it, but you have to do it the same way you would with the Crystal Sky controller which means you have to manually install the APK Android File of the App.
I bought a pair, but I'm not happy with the image quality. I feel I strain trying to read text and the sides are blurry. I adjusted the bridge pads in various ways but could not get a sharp image (tried both 2d and 3d settings). My IOD is 65mm which is within design spec. It could also be due my farsightedness (-1.75). Thinking of returning it.
Nope, the BT-35E are just the display, so you can use them with any drone on the market that sends out a video signal. The trick is to then send that video signal into the smart box.
CAPTAIN DRONE ok thanks for clearing that up for me. I guess I’ll get the BT-300’s then because I want to use DJI GO 4 app with my Inspire2 and my M2Pro. At least I won’t be getting something I don’t need. Thanks again
I'm getting the hololens 2 and the moverio bt350. Will also get the cinego g2, the oculus quest and the atheer air. Will do a quality 1 hour 4K HDR 10+ review on them and I will be charging $10 for the video. The review would be done in a £1000 a night top class London hotel.
I'm a little confused that your number one reason for getting these is the fact that you can see your drone while simultaneously viewing the camera feed from your drone so you are able to both navigate and frame at the same time. Am I missing something? Also does this mean it would not work with the mavic 2 zoom and pro models and an iphone?
The glasses will work with any device that has an HDMI output. The glasses are popular due to the fact that you can see though them (like wearing glasses) and also have an image of what is being sent through the HDMI feed. If you have ever used the BOX GOGGLES (like the DJI goggles) you'll begin to understand the problem.
CAPTAIN DRONE CAPTAIN DRONE sorry I meant I was confused as to why that was NOT the number one reason for buying these. It’s huge as a single operator to see where the drone is in space as well as see what the camera is capturing.
Hi Steve, thanks for the nice video. I had the BT300 for my Spark. I found out a large disavandtage: namely the picture was to small, not zoomed in enough, so you don't get the same experience as using fpv goggles. May be for the Mavics it is different, did you hear of this issue? Thanks Ton
It could be due to eyesight. I find the image to be a nice size for my eyes. I think (I could be wrong) that these glasses have the similar technology to the BT300, however with the new design to hold them on your head, people report that the image is larger and clearer.
hi Captain you connected BT-35E to your Cristallsky HDMI output....this connection is nice.... but i do not have cristalsky, how can i connect these glasses to my DJI drones? can you tell me the differences between BT300 and BT35 E? for application with drone, are they equivalent? unfortunately I do not speak English and I do not understand if you recommend the use of these glasses for flight with drone thank you Vincenzo
Vincenzo. If you own a SPARK, MAVIC AIR, MAVIC PRO, MAVIC 2, then you can only connect the glasses to those with either a Crystalsky or an Android tablet that has an HDMI output. The difference between the BT35E (in this video) and the BT300 (shown in a previous review video), is that one can be used with all DJI drones even if you don't own a Crystalsky and the other one requires a Crystalsky.
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 hi Captain, thanks for the reply, in fact I saw the differences, it would have been nice if BT-300 had also had HDMI, I will buy BT300 :-)
Greetings Steve! Appreciate the video, although seemed a bit too on the bright side. I fell for the ads for the BT-300's and being nearsighted it was a real pain to get a clear view of the entire screen. I attribute that partly to the fact that these do not have adjustable inter-pupilary distance settings. It looks like the BT-35E does not either. And they had absolutely horrendous performance when placed over my existing eyeglasses. I had to purchase the Rochester prescription insets which gave me a clear center screen, but the outer edges were still blurry and sometimes double-vision. Please explain to me how they overcame these issues and I may drop the money for a pair. But otherwise it's just a waste on an upgrade that hasn't fixed past issues. This is a great idea, and I love the concept, but Epson just is blind to the need for adjust-ability to fit this to the hundreds of thousands of different heads and eyes that they are marketing to.
Like all FPV style glasses on the market, they unfortunately won't work for the minority, but they will for the majority. This is why in this video I let people who were near sighted and far sighted try them out and tell me what they saw. I'm far sighted and the image is very clear. Also I fly FPV with FATSHARK googles, which have an adjustment for people with eyes far apart or close together. For the majority of people this works with the FATSHARKS, but there are the minority where this does not work. I don't work or have any association with EPSON so there is really nothing I can add. It is just a product that works for some and not so much for others.
Thank you for your review; it was clear and very informative. After watching all it entails to start using them, all I can say is: way too complicated. Most of my jobs are last minute assignments, that go to court within a day or two. Time sensitive require me to get in, and get out as fast as I got there. They look cool and I'm sure they work cool too, but these will not work when time is of essence. Hopefully Epson can make something that starts working as soon as your bird starts flying. For now, too many plugs and cables. Thanks again, and great job with the review! I'll be watching more.
It appears these cannot work with an iPad and Mavic or Mavic 2, since the iPad has no video output to drive the moverios, correct? The Mavic controller allows for only one output from the RC to work to drive the display, so I see no way to use these with a Mavic of any type, if I need the iPad also to display the camera view. That's where the DJI goggles have the advantage, they work WIRELESSLY direct from the craft to the goggle, with no cable cables, plus you can have an iPad showing the same display in parallel, driven from the RC via USB. I think you forgot to mention that.
They work on any device (doesn't have to be a drone) that has a HDMI output. If you want a DJI Specific pair, then you are looking at the MOVERIO BT-300s. These are not the same as DJI googles, therefore they are not a comparison to those, other than these are glasses that you can look through whereas the DJI googles are a box on your head.
Wow. So awesome! Please help me understand. I've read comments yet never used goggles. I'm a new mavic pro platinum pilot using an iPhone six. Can I use the 335 with this set up? That skypixel device is a fortune. If I used a different phone could it work then? My mpp came with white DJI goggles that remain in sealed box so wondering if I should maybe sell them to help fund something else. So looking forward to this tech being more affordable. Thanks to everyone and all the best to you and yours.
CAPTAIN DRONE thank you for replying promptly. I will have to wait to fund them and maybe we will have more competition soon. Great video and thanks again! 🙏
Those won’t work with analog? Just curious . Very cool technology though . Maybe five years down the line they’ll be better and more reasonable in price . probably probably not! God bless take care stay safe ,another great one for the books Steve 👍.
I have both the moverio bt-300 and the dji goggles and love them both dearly for different purposes. On big bonus of having both is you can use them both at the same time so you and a friend could enjoy live immersive FPV together while exploring.
The bt-35e looks a little more cumbersome to use in the field than the bt-300 since you don't need a phone/crystal sky with bt-300 !
Vracan, I've taken my Kids Flying, using the Old P4, Mavic PRO and the White DJI Goggles on Head tracking Gimbal mode. They Love the freedom or control to look where they want and the Camera points there. I can't wait to play with my new Mavic Zoom too.
Where the Epson Moverios shine is for camera, DJI GO4, superimposed, picture in picture with your normal line of Sight for the Pilot. It's great that we are Spoiled for choices with Goggles, Glasses, display tablets and Drone models.
These types of reviews are great to showcase new Technologies and the options available for those with the $$$$.
Excellent review! Epson should be very happy with this review.
Tell them to send a production one for a give-away contest ;-)
2 great points of your video that sold me on them:
A - having non-tech ppl try them out - great reactions.
B - Showing us the image we would see AND seeing everything else. Stunning.
$900 US dollars is steep - but never having to take goggles off to address ppl - PRICELESS!
Good job, Captain!
Hi, I haven't been able to directly connect my BT-35e glasses to the Autel EVO ll Pro controller. I spent hours trying. However, I now have two different methods that work. The first is the obvious use of Live Deck that I have connected to the 2200nits Feelworld FW279 7" monitor that has an HDMI output. The second method is to use iPad Mini 5 Screen mirroring (or Android Miracast) to wirelessly go to a $20 AnyCast device. Initial setup is a PITA, but once figured out the wireless connection to the glasses is solid.
I tried the bt300. But found them uncomfortable to wear and I didn't like the contoller that set used. These look an improvement on the 300s. As just a viewing option without the control they use to have.
Glad to see Tammi back on the channel. BTW #3... SkyZone HD Googles are smaller and can work with my Drones.The price of the BT-35E Glasses is more than the price of a good quality drone. Kinda pricey at $1200 for use with my drones.
5:54.. At only 1000 feet distance your drone is virtually invisible....let alone at a few kilometers. If they were the price of DJI goggles then the BT-35E Glasses would be interesting to get.
Very wise deduction... I'd get them as well. I bought DJI goggles that came with my Mavic Air, and they are great but at the cost of bulkiness and closed view.
Agreed, we have the BT300 and I can't understand why these are actually more for less? You don't get the controller so where is the cost going? If these were $350 we would be all over them but at $900 that is way too much.
Great video. I just received a flyer for these $200 off the overall price and had never heard if them. Looks like they are worth it. Thanks Captain
what about the comparison between the BT-300 and 35E?
I have the BT-300 glasses. Its the only way to fly. It is amazing flying the P4P. The glasses give you true first person view while flying. Plus, with the BT-300 glasses and the included android controller running DJIgo4 app, I get the full heads up display with all the flight parameters you would see on your Crystal Sky, iPad, or iPhone. Fantastic flying and highly recommended. It is expensive but well worth the investment.
agreed.
Does the Epson MOVERIO BT-35E work the same with the DJI Smart Controller?
If you can plug it into an HDMI out, then it will work.
Great use of technology, hopefully Epson will seize the moment and produce a hobby version, thanks for great video.
I connected my Epson Moverio bt-35e to my DJI Mini 2 using Samsung S10+ by connecting wireless display to glasses and using miricast to connect to glasses. I have to use power bank to supply power for glasses and Wireless Display but it works. I used J5Create ScreenCast HDMI/USB-A Wireless Display Adapter With USB Cable (JVAW56).
Dear Captain, I’m DJI CrystalSky User. Moverio BT-35 is more useful & easier to use for DJI Drones(Especially Mavic 2 Pro,Zoom,Air,Inspire 2…) than Moverio BT-300? I ‘d like to use to fly Drones ,with CrystalSky & BT-35E easily than Moverio BT-300 touch pad inconvenience. Could you check my question and reply, please?
Hi , I appreciate all your video and I have a question for you regarding at MOVERIO SMART GLASSES! I need to know if can I connect them to the any smart device like thermo camera provided with the wifi connection.
Regards, Giurgiu
Thanks for the review. I can see they are slightly different to the BT-300. However, would you recommend one over the other?
I’ve just received the BT-300 and find that they are very slow in downloading from the Moverio store. The controller also gets warm, even while just idling. Did you find this to be the case with your review sample?
Omar, I don't recall any real issues with the BT-300, other than getting used to them. The main difference with the BT 35E is that these glasses don't require an APP to run, they can just plug into most devices that have an HDMI port or USB-C video port. Also the design of how they attach to your head is a big improvement because it keeps the glasses very still on your head so the image looks clear with no movement from the glasses.
CAPTAIN DRONE, thanks for coming back to me. I’ve arrange to exchange mine for a new set. When I spoke with Epson, they advised that they shouldn’t get warm, but it can get very warm just in use without charging.
I was tempted to just return them and purchase the BT-35e, as I like the idea of not being restricted to the Android controller that comes with it. But I use an iPhone, and as far as I know, there’s no way to output HDMI while connected to the Mavic, unless I’m missing something. Do you know of any way to use the BT-35 with an iPhone and Mavic?
Thanks
Btw, you just got yourself a new subscriber :)
Thanks great review... one thing missing is a comparison between the BT35E and the BT300. Which would you buy and why?
If I live and breathed DJI only drones, then the BT300 is the one because it supports all DJI. If I used many different products, drones, laptops, TVs, etc, then the BT35E would be great.
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 Thanks, makes sense. Cheers :)!!
Wow. Good review. I have the DJI goggles but don’t use them much because of having to have a spotter with me to keep Visual Line of Sight.
I like the head tracking mode with the DJI Goggles. Would I be right in thinking that these would not have the head tracking feature?
No lie bro, this was a good ass review. $899, US is mad high, but if I had the bread for the glasses, I would get it. DJI could learn from the old printer people lol.
I have been, in the past, a strong advocate of the Epson BT 300. Augmented reality is much better than virtual-reality for the drone pilot. The real issue became the extra set up time and more things to carry around. Most video photography is done in short simple shots. Each shot is within visual line of sight. Each shot can be run with a simple intelligent flight mode. Tapfly and Point of Interest satisfy most needs.
So now I subscribe to the keep it simple, low-cost solution of using my iPhone.
problem is, when u can't see ur phone because of sun, hence the glasses.
Wow!! Awesome video!! I'm re-thinking of getting the DJI goggle! Yes a couple of hundred dollars more but I don't need a spotter by law!! Thanks again Captain!!
Would you personally recommend this glasses for flying drone or its better to use BT300 ? Will they work with ipad via lightning hdmi cable ? I use drone for taking pictures and movies. I heard that some people don't find comfortable using BT300 controller...Thank you very much for your advise and i must admit that your reviews are very helpful and good.
I think it depends on what your needs are. The BT300 are designed to work with all DJI drones and the BT35E will work with any type of drone or computer or TV or whatever, as long as there is an HDMI output to plug into. You could always buy and try and if not happy return them. Check first to make sure you can return if not happy.
@@CAPTAINDRONE798Will they work with ipad via lightning hdmi cable ? And how comfortable is using controller of BT300 ?
I don't know if they will work with the lightning cable (I don't know if that cable sends power or video). The BT300 have a different design to sit on your head than the BT35E. I think the BT35E are more comfortable.
So, you cannot connect them to the smartphone or Mavic controller without the little box, which is only supplied with the previous version of the glasses, right? So what's the point?
I just got a flyer about these and I can see where they are the thing but cost 1 kazillian dollars. I need to sell my car so I can get a set. Best reviewer on the internet. Great detailed report and review as always.
Wow Steve those Epsons are awesome. I think one day they will be a nice addition to my drone accessories but at that price point right now I'd like to try enjoying more drones from different companies. I believe in the next year or so there's going to be a good amount of quality drones that I'd like to try first. Then maybe I sell a couple to purchase those awesome glasses.
I’m getting the by-35 Moverio glasses, how did you power up the box, i will be flying my Mavic 2 pro and phantom 4pro plus drones, will everything power up and work right, B&h photos where I’m purchasing said both drones will work fine, please tell me they will work, you are my fav UA-camdrone guy please tell me your thoughts
They will work with the Mavic 2 Pro as long as you are using the Smart Controller which has the HDMI out. They will also work with the Phantom 4 Pro Plus because that controller has the built in HDMI out. In my example in this video, I powered them off of the Crystal Sky USB port.
CAPTAIN DRONE ty I’m waiting for fed x to pull up can’t wait ty
Excellent review, I would certainly buy the Edson glasses before a DJI goggles. Thank you again your reviews and explanation are the most interesting.
you have done an amazing job at the product ...
Thank you!
I owned the Epson Moverio BT200 version. I elected to replace them with the larger, heavier DJI Goggles for one main reason: The Epson Moverio does not address Pupillary Distance Adjustment. Not being able to adjust the projection to effectively line up with each eyeball evenly, made for a poor experience. DJI obviously considered the fact that the distance between different individual's eyes might differ, and provided that adjustment to their system. I really wish that Epson would follow that example. This wonderful technology is worthless, if it's difficult to see what you're looking at - Good review though - Please keep up the great work!
Miquael. I think they fixed that in the BT300 and onward by spreading the image wider. With my FATSHARK goggles, I do need to adjust the distance for my eyes, but with teh Moverio's I don't. I've let six other people try them and they all found that the image was great for them (all have different eye distance).
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 I tried the BT300 and they did not fix the IPD issue. I'm guessing it's the same with these. It's unfortunate that something so expensive can't be adjusted for people with large interpupilary distances.
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 they did not address ipd adj in bt300 or bt35.
So which one would you recommend, the BT-300 or the BT-35E?
One is a touchpad with display and the other is just a display.
I just got the bt 300 and love love love them! I think the qualities that make the 35e more expensive is unrelated to flying drones. Still getting used to Android since I come from iOS but there is more similarity than differences so the switch was painless.
We have the 300 and I hated them because of all the cables, setup time and they really were uncomfortable and hard to see through with my glasses on. I didn't want to spend the extra $200 for the prescription inserts so I gave them to my partner who doesn't need glasses. I also found them to be hard to see in bright sunlight even with the dark filter attached. These seem like a better fit as I can still use the screen when I want. The down side is you have to have the Crystal sky with HDMI out.
Have a mavic 2 pro can you tell me which epson glasses i should get as your video doesn’t compare the bt 300 to bt 35 e. . For instance are the bt 35 e a better quality imaging system or is it only one has a controller the other not, as the main difference.. I don’t have a crystal sky unit so i guess i wont be able to get hdmi out from the controller that came with the drone. What should I do please .
Hi, I seem a bit late to the party but I definately want a pair of Moverio's. I own a Mavic 2 Zoom and a pair of DJI RE Goggles but am limited as to when I can use them because of VLOS laws ( I can't always persuade my brother or friends to watch my drone). This seems like a good solution. I wonder whether these BT-35E's would link up nicely to the tripltek 8 pad?
You'd have to ask EPSON. Not sure if they still sell these.
I fly both the Mavic Air and the Mavic Air 2 using an iPad mini 5. If I were to get the Crystal Sky 5.5" monitor would I be able to use the BT-35e glasses with both drones and DJI go 4/dji fly boos. Thank you for any information
Probably
I have the Epson BT-300 and I use it with my DJI Mavic and Phantom. I noticed that the new Epson glasses don't have a touchpad anymore. Is that meet you can't install the DJI Go app on to the glasses? You always have to tether off an HDMI or USB-C port of other devices?
No touchpad anymore. You just connect the glasses to any HDMI video source or USB-C video source to view the display.
Oh, and the DJI GO 4 App is not part of the glasses like in the version with the touchpad. You need a device that runs the DJI GO 4 App to plug into.
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 I can control the Go App with the touchpad now how do I can control the GO App without the touchpad?
Great review Captain. I have a Mavic Pro and an Autel EVO. Any way to use these with the Autel EVO at this time? Would feel better about buying them if they could be used on a non DJI product as well.
You'd need a display device with an HDMI out. You can use the Crystal Sky with the EVO and use the HDMI out, but that is rather costly.
Great technology! Yes the price is pretty steep, but many potential uses including drones. Keep up the great drone and drone accessories reviews!
how good are the colors of projection? do they look as good as a real monitor infront of you or are they washed out to some degree like projections usually are?
From my old eyes the image/colors was anything but washed out. It all depends on the background and how your brain processes the image. As soon as your brain filters out the background all as perfect. The sun shades help with this.
I just purchased the BT-35E glasses. I fly both the Mavic 2 Pro and DJI FPV drones. I use the DJI Smart Controller to fly the M2P and it was very easy to hook up these glasses to that Smart Controller and that worked great. On the DJI FPV I was not able to use the glasses. The review led me to believe that I could replace the DJI Goggles with these glasses but I do not see how that it is possible or I am missing something. I see no way to cable the DJI FPV controller to the glasses control box. Am I missing a required component? The review says you can leave the DJI Goggles at home and just use the glasses but I don't see how that is accomplished. Please help me to understand because the ability to fly without a Visual Observer was what attracted me to this product. Thank you!
Yup, you missed the point. These glasses are for people who live in countries that require visual site of their drone at all times, hence you see through the goggles. In addition, it was shown they require an HDMI out to function.
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 The FAA requires people in the US to have visual site of their drones. I am able to use it with my Mavic drone and other Mavics also so thank you for introducing me to that. I still maintain though that these glasses cannot be used to replace the DJI FPV drone Goggles V2 as you suggested in your video. I hope you prove me wrong. Thank you!
P.S..... B.T.W. you are a very pleasant guy to listen to and watch and learn from...love the channel Captain :) may God bless
Dang, that's some sweet tec! Hope they will develop it further and in the end the price drops. Also the connection to other screens could be more elegant. But hey, still very cool.
Hey awesome review!
Just want to clarify - you used the BT-300 which had a touch pad to control the device! But the BT-35E has no controller but can only mirror the connected device, is this right?
Sounds correct.
I’m having a problem with my by-35s I’m seeing 2 different images how do I set them up for dji drones
Hi thank you for this nice video. One question please. Cam I use these glasses with my optic glasses? I wear optical glasses as you. Thank you
Yes, they fit over glasses
Hi Steve,
I'm not sure if you neglected to cover this or if I missed the information in your video. Please tell me how much latency there is in the video displayed in the BT-35E glasses. I know the DJI goggles have some amount to the tune of 270-400 milliseconds (1/4 to nearly 1/2 second delay). a method to calculate this is to set up a camera (probably your DJI Spark) set a stopwatch that displays hundredths or thousandths of a second increments in front of the camera and record the stopwatch at 60p or 120p, set another camera, Crystal Sky screen, and BT-35E screens all at the same frame at the same time, record those at the highest framerate possible (120, 480, 1000fps) I know standard FPV VGA video is down to near
There should be zero latency. The reason is the glasses are just a display. They will just mirror the latency in the device you are using. So if you plug them into a Crystalsky, the latency will be what the Crystalsky is rated for.
A definite alternative to DJI Goggles. Well done Steve !
Thanks Bill!
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 Yes, but BT300 not theese
Hey Captain ! Use the BT300 since a view month! After aligning the Bt300 properly on the head, is the pic quality better / clearer / cleaner on the BT 35E ? Or is it the same?
FYI
In bright sun light I tested Cristalsky 7.85 1000nit , Galaxy Note 8, IPhone 7, they all give you bad reflections like a mirror so its difficult to see anything ! But the BT 300 is free of reflections when wearing a cap! The Pic is very contrasty! So the BT 300 won, even the resolution is only 1280x720 as it is also on the BT35E, but this is secondary !
I'm told by EPSON that people may find the image better on the BT35E because of how the glasses secure to the head (more stable). But, I do believe it is the same image.
Hello Captain.
I love all your videos.
I have a cuestion.
I have the Evo2 and the tablet Tripltek 6gb is the normal version., and i wanna buy the epson moverio bt35e so i need to know if i can used this glasses with mi equipment.
Thank you very much. And please keep doing nice videos like this.
🤗❤️👍
If there is an HDMI out, then they should work.
Dear Captain, May I have a question? Q1 : I have all kinds of DJI drones & DJI CrystalSky 7.85” monitor and 5.5” monitor. If I have CrystalSky monitors, There is no problem to use Moverio BT-35E with DJI Drones? Could you check my question and reply, please? If there is no problem to use it, I’d like to buy Moverio BT-35E, ASAP. Finally, Thank you so much for Great review. Reply for my question, please. Best Regards
Kim. If you have a Crystalsky monitor, the Crystalsky will work with all DJI drones. With the Crystalsky you could also use the Moverio BT-35E with all DJI drones.
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 , I really appreciate it for your reply. I ordered Epson Moverio BT-35E, today. I receive BT-35E tomorrow. I’m looking forward to see your great review, continuously . Thanks a lot, again. Captain.
Great! Hope you enjoy them.
Just to be clear, you need the USB-C in order not to be tethered to a wall in your house...? And an HDMI cable does not come with the unit?
You'd have to ask EPSON. This video was recorded sometime ago.
I really liked your review. You didn't mention if you are planning to buy these BT-35E. If you are not, what are your reasons for not?
As a reviewer, I get plenty of items for review & some go back to the distributor after review, like the Moverio. For me, a guy who reviews drones and accessories, there is very little time to enjoy such glasses, so at this time, I have no requirement for them.
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 Thanks for all your work which is a great benefit to so many
Great review, thanks. At 10.08 you note that the glasses camera needs an app and does not currently function for drone users (at the time you posted the video). Are you aware of any apps that would allow the use of the camera for a drone user? For example, on one job I had to fly the drone through a trail with vegetation on both sides and above to give the viewer a sense of walking the trail, no problem. But, I also wanted to record video for marketing purposes that showed the drone flying through tight spots. My current solution was to have another person use a GoPro to capture that video.
These are cool, and I like that you're not depending on the Glasses to run the drone app (DJI Go or whatever), but this also means that the device you're running the drone app on needs to have an HDMI Out port. Most devices don't. I use an iPad Mini, so these wouldn't work with that. Or am I missing something?
Flying with Stan You need either an HDMI out (some tablets have this, besides the Crystal sky and Phantom 4 pro) or a very modern USB-C that sends the video signal.
Great review, Captain Drone, and a great looking family as well. With all due respect, Mrs. Drone is such a fabulous babe, (as they say...), a true delight for the eyes in league with those BT-35E's !
I cannot get the Epson BT 350 glasses working with my mavic air 2 drone - What am I doing wrong?
Thanks!
Can you say anything how 3D -ish the experience is?
good question！
And keep up the great work you do here on UA-cam. I always look for your videos for helpful information
Thanks Phil!
A great review CAPT Drone. These represent some nifty piece of technology that's actually been used in the aircraft maintenance industry recently. A little pricey but the tech is impressive. I am waiting like a hawk until the prices take a dip so I can snatch up a pair.
Do these work on the DJI. FPV & or Mavic pro 2? Just so I don’t need a spotter
This was really cool.
Does the Moverio BT350 work with DJI drones?
Requires an HDMI out port
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 Thank you
Which would you prefer to use for a mavic air? These or the 300? What would be the difference besides the 300 has a built in android base?
For the Mavic Air you would require a Crystalsky or an Android Tablet with an HDMI output to use these glasses. If you don't have those then you'd have to use the BT300.
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 would u say the 300 is the same but with the small android device? Quality wise as well as screen clarity?
I'm told they are the same.
How can you hook this up to an Iphone, while using a mavic pro 2?
BT300 would you recommend these over the Crystalsky as I am after the best Display for out and about in sunshine Droning ??
As you can appreciate glare and difficulty of seeing a Smartphone or Tablet in bright sunlight is a major pain as a Droner
The Crystalsky and the BT300 are two very different items. For me, I would use the Crystalsky.
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 Why do you prefer the CrystalSky over the BT300?
Thanks Steve, but do they work well / are they compatible with the Mavic 2 Zoom and Pro as yet? Correct me if I'm wrong, but no one in UA-cam Land, seems to be using them, or the BT-300's with the Mavic 2 Zoom or Pro as yet.
Paul, apparently I am the first to review them in North America (as far as I'm told). Most drone pilots that are DJI drone pilots use the BT300 which have been on the market for awhile. The BT300 work with the ZOOM. The BT35E will only work with the ZOOM if you have a Crystalsky or an Android tablet with an HDMI out.
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 Thanks Steve, - tell me, is it probable that either the BT35E or the Mavic 2 will eventually have a firmware upgrade, so that they do become compatible with each other? Actually, when you know some more about this happening, please bring the details in another video - I believe there are a lot of drone pilots out there, wanting to find this out. At the moment its like the "missing link" that is preventing us from harnessing the best two technologies together ( best latest DJI drone and best latest Moverio glasses) for a light weight compact package !
Paul, I think this will depend on DJI. You see DJI considers any drone that is under the Phantom, to be an entry level drone for people wanting to get into drones so they leave out advanced features and keep everything basic and simple. For 99% of us that is just fine. For the Phantom and above they add more advanced features to the controller like the ability to turn the drone GPS on or off, as well as numerous ports (one of them being HDMI). If DJI ever comes out with a more advanced controller for the Mavic series, then all will be well. There has been talk of an advanced controller with a built in display, but I'm not convinced DJI is bringing that to the market soon due to cost.
what is the image in the corners like? is it blurry or distorted? is it unpleasant to look at the corners (eye muscle strain?) and in the center, is small text ledgible or is the display too small to comfortably view? basically: what would it be like viewing a 720p desktop on? cheers for the review!
You'd have to try them for yourself since everyone's eyes are different. These are not FATSHARK googles, in other words the corners are not what you think. No eye strain at all since it like wearing glasses and someone puts an image in front of your eyes that you can see through. Small text is easily viewable. DJI has just recently, in the past week, put out a video on the MOVERIO BT-300 glasses which shows a quick example of what you see.
Love those glasses. Thank you for the review. On my Christmas list
You are the best sir! thank you for sharing the info news i hope that EPSON leave the gear with you for future Q/A !
Hi thanks for your info.. can you tell me if the newer moverio glasses, the 40s, will still work plugged into a dji smart controller video out port.. i believe there is some short of usb master conflict with the newer usb c connectors on the 40… if so is there a work around please.
Sorry, I have no info on Moverio. I do not own this product.
Hello, Awesome review! I have several drones DJI & DJI goggles & Autel Evo just wanting to confirm that these will work for Autel products?
Only if you have a place to plug in the HDMI cable.
Only crystal sky with this for drones?
I'm somewhat nearsighted. I am a new pilot. I love the concept and would love to use them. but am a bit worried about not using my prescription glasses to help keep sight of my phantom.
Jim, everyone's eye's and prescriptions are different so I could not say they would work with your eyes. You'd have to be sure that you could try them and return them if they don't meet your requirement.
So which glasses for my dji
that's about what i presumed the cost is, they'd be fun to use on the Mavic, though after my Evo arrives, this advanced Buzz Lightbeer tool is next..
- keep yer rotors on Top..
Nice review. Question. How did u connect them to the DJI Spark controller? Thxs Chris
I connect the Crystal Sky to the Spark controller via WiFi, and then just plugged the glasses into the Crystal Sky HDMI out.
Yeay ! The lovely Tammy!
What a pretty gal !
These glassrs look like a great idea.
As usual , excellent review, Captain !
Thanks,
Wulfy
Allways love your reviews but how do they connect to the drone controller what will power them?
The drone controller can be used to provide power if there is a spare port. If not, you'd have to provide the power from another device. The video display can be anything you want as long as the smart box can connect to an HDMI port or USB-C port.
Vuzix gafas son iguales o hay diferencia???
Wow, these would be great for even watching alternate tv programming while someone watches a different program on the tv. I wonder if they will have corrective snap on lenses where the sunglasses clip on so a person would not have to wear their glasses? Very nice review indeed.
Hi Capt. I purchased the BT-35E ; Do I need a crystal sky to make them work. My DJI P4P Controller doesn't have an HDMI it only has USB, I then bought a Tablet Fusion 5 w/ Windows 10 it won't allow me to down load Anafi Free Fly6 for the Thermal. Any advice or a detailed video would be much appriciated. Thanks; Bob
Hi Bob. You require a device with an HDMI out to use the BT-35. I have the P4P+ controller which allows me to use them with that. For all other DJI drones, I use the Crystal Sky which has the HDMI out. Also, I have tried loading the PARROT ANAFI App on the Crystal Sky. The results are not good because it tries to look for Google Maps, or a map source, and the Crystal Sky will not allow it to do that.
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 So the P4P + is the HDMI on the controller. I just read you can't use 3rd party with the plus. Their both about 500 bucks. Guess I'll buy the Crystal Sky. I tried the going from Lightning to HDMI. Nope. Any hope these companies will ever coordinate before launching a new product. Thanks for your reply.
My P4P+ controller has built in GPS and HDMI out. You can place 3rd party apps on it, but you have to do it the same way you would with the Crystal Sky controller which means you have to manually install the APK Android File of the App.
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 Ok Thanks not exactly plug and play.
I bought a pair, but I'm not happy with the image quality. I feel I strain trying to read text and the sides are blurry. I adjusted the bridge pads in various ways but could not get a sharp image (tried both 2d and 3d settings). My IOD is 65mm which is within design spec. It could also be due my farsightedness (-1.75). Thinking of returning it.
Great review, and also just purchased a pair through Epson Canada, using your like of course! So siked!
Great! I hope they turn out to be just what you're looking for!
So do the BT-35E glasses allow you to control your drone like the BT-300 glasses?
Nope, the BT-35E are just the display, so you can use them with any drone on the market that sends out a video signal. The trick is to then send that video signal into the smart box.
CAPTAIN DRONE ok thanks for clearing that up for me. I guess I’ll get the BT-300’s then because I want to use DJI GO 4 app with my Inspire2 and my M2Pro. At least I won’t be getting something I don’t need. Thanks again
Thank you for the review. Would you recall if there a way to adjust the distance between both lenses?
Paolo Ma There is no method that I saw to adjust the distance. I believe they work with all eye distance based on the technology.
Man that looks awesome. Only thing that I don't like is the wiring. Too many wires hanging around. Thank you for your excellent presentation.
I'm getting the hololens 2 and the moverio bt350. Will also get the cinego g2, the oculus quest and the atheer air. Will do a quality 1 hour 4K HDR 10+ review on them and I will be charging $10 for the video. The review would be done in a £1000 a night top class London hotel.
Can the glasses be used to tilt the camera up or down with just your head moving? Or are you still needing the dial on the controller for that?
At this time you need to use the controller for that with this model of glasses (until someone builds such an App).
I have a question about the Eachine Ev800d is it compatible with the sjrc f11 pro 4k and the mini 2 ? Thank you for your time
Nope
Have you tried the moverio bt-30c? If so does it work with the DJI smart controller?
Have not tried them.
CAPTAIN DRONE thanks for the reply!
I'm a little confused that your number one reason for getting these is the fact that you can see your drone while simultaneously viewing the camera feed from your drone so you are able to both navigate and frame at the same time. Am I missing something? Also does this mean it would not work with the mavic 2 zoom and pro models and an iphone?
The glasses will work with any device that has an HDMI output. The glasses are popular due to the fact that you can see though them (like wearing glasses) and also have an image of what is being sent through the HDMI feed. If you have ever used the BOX GOGGLES (like the DJI goggles) you'll begin to understand the problem.
CAPTAIN DRONE CAPTAIN DRONE sorry I meant I was confused as to why that was NOT the number one reason for buying these. It’s huge as a single operator to see where the drone is in space as well as see what the camera is capturing.
Hi,
Very grateful to you . Does it allow me to share what I see out to an android device?
Thank you
Nope.
which would you recommend, the BT-300 or the BT-35E
For my use it would be the BT-35E. For others that can't plug directly into an HDMI port, then the BT300 would be the option.
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 how about the bt350? Will it preferably vs the old model bt300?
Hi Steve, thanks for the nice video. I had the BT300 for my Spark. I found out a large disavandtage: namely the picture was to small, not zoomed in enough, so you don't get the same experience as using fpv goggles. May be for the Mavics it is different, did you hear of this issue? Thanks Ton
It could be due to eyesight. I find the image to be a nice size for my eyes. I think (I could be wrong) that these glasses have the similar technology to the BT300, however with the new design to hold them on your head, people report that the image is larger and clearer.
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 Ok, thanks a lot for your reply. Then Epson probably addressed this issue. Ton
hi Captain
you connected BT-35E to your Cristallsky HDMI output....this connection is nice.... but i do not have cristalsky, how can i connect these glasses to my DJI drones?
can you tell me the differences between BT300 and BT35 E?
for application with drone, are they equivalent?
unfortunately I do not speak English and I do not understand if you recommend the use of these glasses for flight with drone
thank you
Vincenzo
Vincenzo. If you own a SPARK, MAVIC AIR, MAVIC PRO, MAVIC 2, then you can only connect the glasses to those with either a Crystalsky or an Android tablet that has an HDMI output. The difference between the BT35E (in this video) and the BT300 (shown in a previous review video), is that one can be used with all DJI drones even if you don't own a Crystalsky and the other one requires a Crystalsky.
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 hi Captain, thanks for the reply, in fact I saw the differences, it would have been nice if BT-300 had also had HDMI, I will buy BT300 :-)
Great review, I like you pointing it to portability . Very useful info for my (future) choices, thanks. Luca from Vancouver
As usual fantastic review!!amazing Moverio but ......very very nice Tammy( sorry I am Italian..)
Greetings Steve! Appreciate the video, although seemed a bit too on the bright side. I fell for the ads for the BT-300's and being nearsighted it was a real pain to get a clear view of the entire screen. I attribute that partly to the fact that these do not have adjustable inter-pupilary distance settings. It looks like the BT-35E does not either. And they had absolutely horrendous performance when placed over my existing eyeglasses. I had to purchase the Rochester prescription insets which gave me a clear center screen, but the outer edges were still blurry and sometimes double-vision. Please explain to me how they overcame these issues and I may drop the money for a pair. But otherwise it's just a waste on an upgrade that hasn't fixed past issues. This is a great idea, and I love the concept, but Epson just is blind to the need for adjust-ability to fit this to the hundreds of thousands of different heads and eyes that they are marketing to.
Like all FPV style glasses on the market, they unfortunately won't work for the minority, but they will for the majority. This is why in this video I let people who were near sighted and far sighted try them out and tell me what they saw. I'm far sighted and the image is very clear. Also I fly FPV with FATSHARK googles, which have an adjustment for people with eyes far apart or close together. For the majority of people this works with the FATSHARKS, but there are the minority where this does not work. I don't work or have any association with EPSON so there is really nothing I can add. It is just a product that works for some and not so much for others.
Thank you for your review; it was clear and very informative. After watching all it entails to start using them, all I can say is: way too complicated. Most of my jobs are last minute assignments, that go to court within a day or two. Time sensitive require me to get in, and get out as fast as I got there. They look cool and I'm sure they work cool too, but these will not work when time is of essence. Hopefully Epson can make something that starts working as soon as your bird starts flying. For now, too many plugs and cables. Thanks again, and great job with the review! I'll be watching more.
It appears these cannot work with an iPad and Mavic or Mavic 2, since the iPad has no video output to drive the moverios, correct? The Mavic controller allows for only one output from the RC to work to drive the display, so I see no way to use these with a Mavic of any type, if I need the iPad also to display the camera view. That's where the DJI goggles have the advantage, they work WIRELESSLY direct from the craft to the goggle, with no cable cables, plus you can have an iPad showing the same display in parallel, driven from the RC via USB. I think you forgot to mention that.
They work on any device (doesn't have to be a drone) that has a HDMI output. If you want a DJI Specific pair, then you are looking at the MOVERIO BT-300s. These are not the same as DJI googles, therefore they are not a comparison to those, other than these are glasses that you can look through whereas the DJI googles are a box on your head.
Im using M2P with my Samsung Note8(TypeC).. what would be the suitable latest moverio glasses for me? Thank you
I think you need an adaptor from Samsung to run video through the Type C connector out from your phone.
Question. Can I watch a movie using this device? It will be so cool watching my favorite movie in the airplane on the way to a vacation destination.
Yes. If you have a laptop, you can plug into the HDMI port. Or plug into your TV. Or plug into anything with an HDMI or USB-C output.
Wow. So awesome! Please help me understand. I've read comments yet never used goggles. I'm a new mavic pro platinum pilot using an iPhone six. Can I use the 335 with this set up? That skypixel device is a fortune. If I used a different phone could it work then? My mpp came with white DJI goggles that remain in sealed box so wondering if I should maybe sell them to help fund something else. So looking forward to this tech being more affordable. Thanks to everyone and all the best to you and yours.
You would require a DJI Crystalsky to use the goggles with the Mavic Pro Platinum, or you'd have to purchase an Android tablet with an HDMI out port.
CAPTAIN DRONE thank you for replying promptly. I will have to wait to fund them and maybe we will have more competition soon. Great video and thanks again! 🙏
Excellent!!! Very awesome review. These are great! Going to get these. Now I can fly my Spark and not worry about the goggle-block"!
Those won’t work with analog? Just curious . Very cool technology though . Maybe five years down the line they’ll be better and more reasonable in price . probably probably not! God bless take care stay safe ,another great one for the books Steve 👍.
