Guys, I bought a pair of VR Wave lenses for my DJI FPV goggles. One eye was great, the other, not so great, a bit blurry at the bottom, right side edge. I contact VR Wave. They asked for proof of purchase and a video showing the installation and the issue. Then, they just did a disappearing act. I assume the initial questions were to try to run down the clock or get me to "go away" I don't know. I've mailed them several times since then and, NO RESPONSE! I subsequently bought lenses off the shelf and they've worked fine. I don't have an astigmatism so, maybe I was lucky with the cheap lenses, hard to say. Anyway, VR Wave let me down as a company with a terrible response to my issue. There must be another company doing these. Maybe try them. Oh, I still get promotional spam from VR Wave! Hope this was helpful.
I am just starting to look into these. Been trying the smaller toy ones to get used to controls and flying them, now I want to move up the fpv ones but i wear glasses too. Thankfully i do have some smaller frames that might work well, i just have to plan for the pricing.
The not being able to see well in the goggles has always been a major concern and hesitation to getting into FPV. I see fine at a distance and I don't even use prescription glasses. I just buy off the rack 1.25 or 1.5 lenses. In you opinion, do you think the goggles could compensate for that small of a needed lense or would I still need glasses? I wish I knew someone who had the DJI goggles so that I could try them.
I was hoping someone had some better answers by now, but I guess not. I know my glasses are around -9.25 or -9.5 but I still see up close really well, even in my early 50's. And I'm seeing that the DJI Goggles 2 have diopters up to -8, so it looks like things are improving. Is the only really acceptable option though for FPV at this point still going to be getting prescription diopters? Nothing like having a lot of questions on something that isn't exactly cheap or easy to find...
I still find the best solution is to keep the glasses on, if nothing else it would be more of a pain if you needed to take the goggles off in a hurry and fumble around to find your glasses again 😂. What bugs me the most is the distortion in the oem optics within the goggles.... for what these darn things cost they could've at least used a higher grade aspheric glass optic 😂 Oh at this point I should add this is still in reference to the FPV goggles, still haven't gotten my hands on the avata set,but those doo appear to have a better oem lens
I use progressive lens in my glasses due to the main fact that I’m 53 years old. But I do have a pair of single vision lens glasses I use with VR and that does fix that problem. But there is a bigger problem, fogging. The closest fix I have found for this is cat crap (product name, not actual cat %#€^) anti fog. But it comes with it’s on problems. It has to be reapplied every time and it alone distorts the view through the lens being that it adds a thin film. I haven’t tried the DJI goggles yet. Are you having problems with fogging?
Hmmm I haven't had problems with fogging in the DJI v2 GOGGLES, but yes that is a problem with cat crap at higher lens powers (and these systems use some pretty high + power lenses) which already create plenty of distortion on their own.... tough place to be. I have some anti fog cloths (also sell them on my site) that use a much finer layer to combat fog. I'm not sure if it would be just enough or not though 🤔
So you can wear glasses with the avata goggles? Thanks for your comment. What single lens are you using? For distance or for reading? What stopping from getting the avata is because I am wearing a progressive lens too.
@@sifu2u_now you'll want a single vision for distance for FPV, but yes. They also have some built in adjustable power, so it's a big improvement for glasses wearers vs the V2
Same boat here! I just received my avata kit today in the Explorer and i just noticed i could not see shit in goggles Integra. I have -5 astigmatism and not even the telemetry data could read. I was hopping the included correction lenses will slightly help but they are even worst for me. I was googling for solutions thats why i ended up here in your video, unfortunately after so many time I guess we are still stuck and im thinking in returning Avata
That much cylinder is tough! With the distance to the lens I can’t imagine a corrective lens for the unit would even help for you. Contacts would be best case here, but as someone that hates contacts personally… well. I get it. 🥶
@@ThatGlassesGuy03 yeah I decided to give it a try with a pair of corrective lens I order online just to see if it will help me before I send my goggles back. We'll see how it goes from there 😔
I wore Aviator style with glass lenses. Large field of view and my prescription was very heavy in weight. Polycarbonate saved my bridge. I am thinking I should buy my optometrist lunch and ask him some questions related to FPV.
I would say most optoms would be lost when it comes to FPV. I know a select few that have done custom lens replacements for these goggles, but you can also order some cheap snap in lenses and have your prescription fitted to those, just have to take some measurements in mind when calculating the RX for the as worn position. Those old aviators with glass lens were definitely heavy!!! Newer materials like hivex blow away polycarbonate though :)
I'll have to get my hands on a set!!! I doubt they went backwards in this area though! Hopefully some improvements where we might be more readily able to add or retrofit rx adapted lenses in those 🙌 but I wouldn't hold your breath 😂
😎😁 thank goodness too! 😂 Next step is probably me finding a nice well fit insert and knocking out whatever trash lenses are included to put some real optics into it 😎. For some I think this might actually be MORE fiddly than shoving glasses underneath.... just depends on where they can see without glasses and how much hassle they wanna deal with if they need to lift the goggles for anything 😁
