How will the Spark connect with the DJI Goggles. Will it be wireless or HDMI Lead ? Will the touch pad be able to control the Spark ?

Pretty sure I read it was USB to the controller, same as phantom models.

That what I read as well so apparently cant have your phone connected as well as the goggles, which is a shame. It would be good to have it as a backup if you flip the goggles up you still have the normal setup. I am waiting for the Spark and Goggles now so it would be good for DJI to confirm how exactly this is going to all work...

Yes I agree. I have both on order. My big worry is that I might struggle to see the goggle screens clearly with my glasses as I can't focus up at very close range ??

Another question. I don't have a Mavic is there an HDMI output socket on the Mavic controller to connect to the goggles if not will there be one on the Spark controller ??

Apparently it will connect using the USB from the controller to the goggles... DJI????

USB to the goggles sounds strange as the connection from the Phantom controller to goggles
is an HDMI connector ??

I was able to fly the Spark yesterday (July 16, 2017) using a $50 vr headset compatible with Google Cardboard (Homido 1) and a $20 app (3D FPV) from the iPhone App Store.  Flew FPV like a charm for under a hundred bucks USD.  It's a poor-man's FPV, but it worked like a charm.
