I haven't flown enough yet to say for certain whether it is something I will become accustomed too but, at the moment , 'rolling' the drone whilst hand holding it and wearing the goggles is 'uncomfortable'.

Well, good luck.  Thanks for the reply.  If normal people get "uncomfortable, that usually means I'm vomiting.

If you have a 'normal drone', could you make up a set of goggles using you phone and an empty breakfast cereal box? Then set your drone to FPV mode, hand hold it and roll it and see how you respond whilst wearing your goggles?

I sometimes start to feel a bit "queasy" but it usually passes. Mostly I'm worried that I'll fall over. To prevent that I either sit in a chair or lean against something

Bear in mind that FPV is targetted to a certain audience.... maybe with access to a barf bag or two.
I'm sure that in the right control the result can be more cinematic

I 100% agree.  That looks like it would take along time to get proficient at.  BTW, on amazon looking at FPV.  Ugh.  I need to walk away.
