Hey guys,


I am for damn sure I am not the only one that has this problem. But being an Asian my nose is small. which means that the goggles don't sit snug on my face! This causes the goggles to sit on my cheek and for long flight time my face can get pretty sore. Not only that there is definitely some light leaks occuring around my nose area as well.

I find this amusing but I am curious if anyone can show me their fix for this?

Looking around I found these replacement face pads.

I think this is a pretty common issue. I think a lot of people add bits of foam here and there to get the goggles to fit better.
Apparently the reverse problem is very common as well. Goggles developed in Asia are test fitted using local employees. Goggles which fit Asians just fine end up bruising our giant western noses. I'm note sure which type of faces DJI modeled their goggles on. I can see my controller with my goggles on. I don't have a big nose but it's certainly not small either.

I think the pad you linked has a good chance of working the way you hope.

"I'll keep you updated!"

Yes, please. I'd like to know how the pad works for you.

I have a “Roman Nose” and the goggles barely touch it.

I’ve found that if the goggles ride high on my forehead, and the lower arches rest on my cheekbones, I get the best image. They never actually rest on the bridge of my nose.

That's actually how I got mine set up at the moment. I find that my cheekbones get a little sore after a 20 min flight.

I've ordered the pads and I am keen to test them out when they get here.

Let us know how the foam pads feel.  My goggles dig into my cheekbones as well.

Hey all! Got an update for you guys

The face pad came. And I gotta tell you that the fit is perfect!
The foam is soft and supports my cheeks and nose really well. Managed to fly through 2 batteries without my face being sore.
Light leakage has been all but eliminated. The only thing that is of minor complaint is that now my nose gets a little pinched but it’s bearable. I’ve attached some photos for you.

Which face pad is that?  I just bought the DJI Sponge Foam padding which is very soft and squishy, and doesn't look like that at all
