Received my Avata 2 - 3 battery fly more kit and FPV remote 3 on Tuesday the 16th. Ordered from the DJI store on the 11th and arrived in 5 days from China to west coast of Canada.
That was a good start but it went downhill from there. All of the gear looks good. I like the shoulder bag.
Charged all of the batteries and then powered up the drone, goggles and Motion3. Connected my phone to the goggles and activated all through the latest DJI Fly app. Proceeded through the firmware updates of all 3 components and they all completed successfully. Then a flysafe update was completed. That all went smoothly. Did the activation and firmware update of the FPV remote 3 seperately on the PC with DJI Assistant 2.
Drone firmware V01.00.0200, Goggles 3 firmware V01.00.0100, motion 3 firmware V01.00.0100
Disconnected the phone after all updates were completed and then the goggles view showed the camera view from the drone without any icons on the screen. 5D button and back button on the goggles do nothing. AR Cursor from the motion 3 shows up on the screen and I can see the dot respond if I click but there is nothing on the screen to click on. Tried clicking on the center top, bottom and left of the screen where the menu icons are supposed to be but nothing happens.
If I power up the goggles without the Drone powered on I see the startup DJI logo and then it goes black with no wallpaper image, Icons or anything. Power status lights are on and the fan will start if goggles are on long enough but the screen remains black. If I then power up the drone, the camera feed shows up in the goggles but with no icons.
Succsesfully refreshed the firmware of goggles , drone and Motion 3 with the latest DJI assistant 2 on the PC. But no change in the goggles behaviour. Tried to refresh the firmware of the goggles a second time on the pc but the second refresh failed the update at 3%. Tried to refresh several more times but it kept failing at 3%. Goggles behaviour remains the same.
DJI support has been dissapointing. Called yesterday and after an hour on the phone without any success he told me to call DJI support back back after 24hrs have passed. Called again today and spent another hour on the phone without any resolution and now they want me to wait another 24-48 hours for a call back from their engineers.
I guess I should have known better than to buy a new product at launch from the DJI store. Windless sunny weather with a new drone here that I am unable to use and no real direction from DJI support as to what they are going to do to rectify it.
On the bright side , the FPV remote 3 works well on the simulators and is lighter than the FPV remote 2. Also like the fit and egonomics of the Motion 3 in my hand.
