All good fun..... Bit pricey, but you get what you pay for. If it was rubbish, I wouldn't do the video.... Here's the link:. dronemask.com/products/dronemask2?aff=11
I got sent this to test, but as I've said before, if it's crap, I'll say so, or just refuse to do a video. You wouldn't believe the number of cheap drones I'm asked to review.......
Great review, thanks. A lot of people are looking at this as only an FPV thing, but for me, it's the fact that I'll be able to see details that I can't see on my little Galaxy! I often use my Mini II for whale watching and it's insanely hard to even locate the whales on that tiny phone screen. There have been several times I've shot footage, only to realize what I missed once I watch it on my computer screen. I just ordered a Drone Mask 2, so I'm hoping it's a game changer.
Great review, what interests me is-1: dabble your feet into fpv without having to get all new kit and 2: can be used with glasses without the need for additional prescription lens to be purchased. Seems like a good idea for adding to my Christmas list 🎅
Thanks Ian!! Bought my first version DroneMask when I saw your review, and loved it!! Pre-ordered this one as soon as I received their email, but haven’t received the delivery yet. But after this review, I can’t wait. The finger holes now makes this perfect. As for the comment posted here about the latency… while it is true, one must just account for it. The fact is, the same latency exist when flying using just your phone, so not sure how the drone mask is impacted any different? Aside from seeing better with the mask on, and no glare, direct sun light or dimming iPhone screens… ps. On pre order I received some discount, and ended up paying $167 I believe.
Exactly. There's no electronics here. You get the same latency you'd get anyway. I guess it's more important if you're flying low and close to objects tho! 🤠👍🏻
Good review as ever Ian, it looks really good fun and a great way to add a different view if you fancy a change from normal drone flying with out getting a dedicated fpv.
This is exactly the video that I was hoping for because I want to buy a foldable drone under 250g, but my fpv-experienced friend advised me to buy the DJI Avata (ca 400g, not foldable, and noisy) instead, because of high latency when using a phone for an fpv experience. In the comments some viewers say that this depends on the capabilities of the phone that is being used. Can anyone shine some more light on this issue ? Thank you ! Great video !!! 👍👍👍
This is because true FPV drones rely on the goggles, which relay the images to you with minimal lag. If your phone is a low end phone, it won't have the processing power to relay the images in near real-time and you could end up crashing because you can't see where you're going...
@@IaninLondon OK, thanks - I have an iphone se which is about 4 years old. How do I know e.g. by way of the description of the processor of any phone how short or long the latency could be ? Thank you for your response ! 👍👍👍
The FPV gimbal mode of the Mini drones (tested with my M3P) are less "organic", some kind of artificial, edgy. Together with the relatively small FOV and the slow speed it does not tick any boxes for me, flying the Avata is very different experience. But may be if someone never flew FPV of any kind he might be very pleased by this solution. For me the DroneMask2 could be interesting to make "normal" drone flying more immersive to get a better impression of the shots you get than just looking at a screen of the RC. Below the DJI RC PRO the remotes lack the HDMI interface one could use feed some goggles. This Mask seems a good workaround solving this lack of possibilities.
Spot on. The jerkiness and speed of the non-fpv drones is there to see; that's why I wanted to do a side by side (ish) comparison so you can see for yourself what the end result will be. But despite that, it's genuinely a lovely, huge, immersive experience, with no glare and everything looks crisp and bright. If you want genuine fast acrobatic flying, you =defo have to go down the full fpv route....
Good video......having just bought the Drone mask 2 as well I'm waiting for my SJRC F22s drone to arrive and then it's off to see the wild west show..........BTW.....wouldn't it be a cool experience to allow your dog to go off on his own in the hills and track him with the drone so you'd know where he was.,,,,,freedom is a very precious thing.
Other than the stereo lens VR box head sets (which require a 3rd party app) this is the only single lens offering out there that displays DJI Fly. Believe me I've looked!
The lag of the video signal to the Fly App on your phone is very large. So large it’s possible you will crash your drone a split second before you see it on your phone. Not saying it’s impossible to fly FPV with the Drone Mask, but you need to mind the latency issue.
If your getting lag it's your phone mate and has absolutely nothing to do with it being in a mask. It's what your seeing on your screen at the time lol
Fun experience and a lot cheaper than the full Avata package. Think these would prove beneficial in non fpv mode to help screen glare etc. I've got the Avata and M3pro, but I don't have your awesome jacket! 😂
I am a huge fan of drone mask. I tried the Avata for FPV but did not like the goggles and split screen. The Avata goggles need too much adjusting and you cannot see all of the info in all parts of the screen because of the blurring. There are also too many batteries to worry about with the Avata (Goggles/drone/controller) The big plus with the DJI goggles was obviously the fact that you can change the drone settings in flight. But now that the Drone Mask 2 has the 'finger flap' things, it makes it much easier to fly the drone with the mask when you need to change the settings. I have now sold my Avata. My Done Mask 2 is on its way and I am looking forward to flying my Mini 2 and Mavic 3 Classic with them, with my spotter by my side!
Thanks for the excellent review, Ian. On many days, it is very sunny in my neck of the woods here in the Tropics and I have been struggling to read the data on my phone during bright conditions with the problem made worse by the limited size of the screen on a typical smartphone. DJI's sun visor for smartphones mitigates the issue somewhat but does not completely eliminate the problem. I have been waiting for DroneMask to fix the problems on their version 1 and I'm glad you took the effort to give us a detailed review on whether they succeeded in making improvements for their second rendition. I will shortly be making a purchase for the DroneMask2. Again, many thanks for this review. Subscribed & Liked
Small technicality (because that's what I do). FPV spotter rule is not for the UA Observer to be "nearby", but to be "alongside". There can be a significant difference between the two and it's unnecessary to confuse with a word change.
I wouldn’t mind one of these just to see the screen properly in bright sunlight. Looking at my footage on a monitor later, I’m always regretting missing things that I should have captured at the time of filming. Would be great to see more detail at the time to compose my shots.
Concerned I may suffer from motion sickness flying a TRUE FPV drone, this is an affordable option to try with my Air 2 before dropping $$$ on the Avata. Thanks!
Or you could just go to TK Maxx and get one for £20 in the gadget section by the tills nearer Christmas. I did exactly that about 5 years ago until I eventually got the DJI goggles V1. Now I use those with every drone. I honestly can't see how the price of these Dronemasks can be justified though.
Another good video Ian. I don’t know how he did it but dronexfactor managed to link his with the rc pro and his phone so he was using the goggles with the rc.
Cheers for yet another interesting video. One question about the mask though, would you dare using it to FPV in some woods for instance? I can't remember if it was my mini2 or the old Spark, but I've crashed when trying to rely on the somewhat delayed image on the phone when navigating amongst the trees.
Good review Ian, is the DroneMask2 less forward heavy than the original? I've got the original but only used it a couple of times because I found it pretty uncomfortable, as if it wanted to pull my head down.
@@IaninLondon thanks for the heads up! I know some people love it. Perhaps I should just persevere with it. I like the idea of access to the touchscreen without having to unzip it, that was a major drawback with the original.
Hello there :) Thanks a lot for the videos. Recently got my Mini 3 and your content has been very useful. Also got teary eyed with your volcano video lol. Quick question: i have the DJI RC controller with the screen. Can i use it with the DroneMask 2 as well?
Ian - Thanks for another super interesting test/review. My old school mate has a Phantom 3 standard and having used our eyes for 70 years, using a mobile screen in daylight is not easy. As you have (/have had) a Phantom 3, can you verify that it would work with Dronemask 2? - Supplier’s web site is not clear about it, and neither is our foremost Drone shop in Denmark. thanks.
Is there a UK Site that you can buy this from rather than have the global shipping and risking all sorts of Taxes etc when it comes into the Uk it is already quite expensive and would not want to get caught with these potential added costs....... Whoops I see you covered that at the end of the video
Yep; they're based in Norway although the product is shipped from Hong King; they have specifically confirmed there will be no taxes or import duties for UK customers.
I Ian I fly mini 2 with I pad mini I find wat spoils the experience is in daylight I cannot see screen good I tried making a hood that goes around the screen like the ones you can buy But still not happy with glare etc and I also find the icons on screen two small to alter your camera settings eV or other commands without touching the one next to it . Best soution I had was a black bin bag over my head and controller to see but can imagine any one seeing you screen but was a bit crap in rality I am not bothered about the fpv side of flying so would the mask 2 help in helping me overcome the problems I am having after your experience testing Also would it help trying to do a roof inspection or that kind of close up stuff so your not guessing as much with glare on your normal set up screen Thanks john
Fully understand the issues and it's an emphatic yes. There is no glare whatsoever and the lenses make the phone screen look huge and crisp and clear; and will work with glasses if you have to wear them too. I absolutely recommend you do not put a plastic bin liner on your head. Ian
Intrigued by this, but wouldn't want to go back to my phone after a few months with the RC Pro and the functionality that means I don't have to touch the screen once airborne. Found an app called ApowerMirror (Android in my case) that can cast the RC Pro screen to my phone when the phone is set as a hotspot and RC Pro connected to it. Obviously, the potential for lag and poor mobile signal might be an issue, but I'd only want the DroneMask for a more immersive Air 2S experience - framing of video and images etc - than replicating an FPV experience. I've tried the mirroring without the mask and it seems smooth enough. If you get the chance to experiment Ian, that would be grand 👍
@@IaninLondon Gotcha. Didn't realise you were still resisting the RC Pro 😉 I was pleased with my Tripltek 8 until I was loaned an RC Pro in the Summer. Sooooo much more convenient, but if you're happy with the RC I can see why you have no need for the Pro 👍
Well explained , as Usual , Thank You . Question : Is there any problem if i prefer using " Follow mode " instead of " FPV modes " in the App with this drone mask 2 ?
Hi, is it possible to use the dronemask 2 with the dji mini pro 3? It has a the separate controller, if so, do you know how to connect it to iPhone? Cheers
From their FAQS: The DroneMask is compatible with most phones that are not wider than 78,1 mm and no longer than 170 mm. This includes, but are not limited to, all models of iPhone, Samsung S6, S7, S8 and S8 edge. However, some phones has a button on the side, that will interfere with our mount (like Sony Xperia and some models of HTC). The DroneMask works with Samsung Galaxy S21.
parrot bebop 2, £80-ish on E-may, drone mask better, drone can fly in hurricane, signal not as good as DJI . but lot less money FPV under £100 , send yer dji mask back!
You seemed to be struggling with real genuine plus comments for this product. Other than poke holes in the side. If you want real fpv, buy the avata I'd say, not that I've got one. Seems a lot of faff otherwise tbh. And that normally results in disappointment. I've got m3p and happy. If you want fpv, get one that's built for it in my view.
Not really. I just didn't want to gush over what's fundamentally a phone holding mask. It's genuinely very comfortable and well made. As you say, if you want genuine fpv, get a genuine full fov kit. 👍🏻
Another nice video Ian, pleased to see you visiting my home turf! Hope you enjoyed it? It's a beautiful part of the world and steeped in history. Not sure if you explored it much but here's some of my videos from around the area and beyond. Cheers Ian! ua-cam.com/channels/8cs1O7t6OOteU0fHuf5wSA.htmlvideos
If you're used to proper FPV, then yeah, it will suck, but if you want to get an intro into fpv without shelling out for decent goggles and an fpv model, then this is a great mask. As I say, cheaper options out there but this defo doesn't suck imho 👍🏻
This is a Mobile phone VR mask with a absolutely ridiculous pricetag of 180$ on it. To promote it and not put it down just hits a bit wrong to me, it's a google cardboard targeted at drone owners so they go ok lets make it 5-6x the price those suckers will buy it lmao.
Well I've just bought the drone mask 2.. Second hand..at a very reasonable price. No long wait for shipping and I think it is a quality product being able to adjust the focal length is a bonus... Great for really sunny days when you struggle to see your phone screen

Seems a lot of faff otherwise tbh. And that normally results in disappointment. I've got m3p and happy. If you want fpv, get one that's built for it in my view.
Not really. I just didn't want to gush over what's fundamentally a phone holding mask. It's genuinely very comfortable and well made. As you say, if you want genuine fpv, get a genuine full fov kit. 👍🏻
@@IaninLondon But the Avata with all its leads and Batteries etc is plenty of faff. Even more than the Dronemask I think
Another nice video Ian, pleased to see you visiting my home turf! Hope you enjoyed it? It's a beautiful part of the world and steeped in history. Not sure if you explored it much but here's some of my videos from around the area and beyond. Cheers Ian! ua-cam.com/channels/8cs1O7t6OOteU0fHuf5wSA.htmlvideos
Ian, be honest..... It sucks!
If you're used to proper FPV, then yeah, it will suck, but if you want to get an intro into fpv without shelling out for decent goggles and an fpv model, then this is a great mask. As I say, cheaper options out there but this defo doesn't suck imho 👍🏻
This is a Mobile phone VR mask with a absolutely ridiculous pricetag of 180$ on it. To promote it and not put it down just hits a bit wrong to me, it's a google cardboard targeted at drone owners so they go ok lets make it 5-6x the price those suckers will buy it lmao.
I kind of cover that more than once. Just like all the cheaper drones out there... Your choice.
Well I've just bought the drone mask 2.. Second hand..at a very reasonable price. No long wait for shipping and I think it is a quality product being able to adjust the focal length is a bonus... Great for really sunny days when you struggle to see your phone screen
Looks jerky, mini 2
Yes; there's no way it's as smooth as the Avata....
