As I already own the DJI Googles 3, just wanted to ask if the Flip will have any FPV compatibility, similar like the Neo has, or if it's just purely a photo/video drone from a distance?

Thanks for answering,

No goggles are compatible with the Flip. I feel that DJI have shot themselves in the foot with this release.

The Flip is being sold as a vlog drone. I don’t think DJI had FPV in mind in the design. My question to those that want FPV…why are you looking at this instead of something like the Avata?

The Avata 2 is awesome for FPV at pretty much the same price, yes. I just wanted to know if the Flip is meant to be as versatile as the Neo, or no.

It's more than likely intentional that the Flip doesn't support FPV as it could eat into the sales of both the Neo and the Mini series.

I have both the Avata 2 and the Neo but have recently sold my last DJI camera drone because I much prefer FPV flights.

However, being a photographer, I wished that the Avata 2 would support taking RAW photos as it has the same image sensor as the Mini 4 Pro.

My most ideal setup would be a fairly capable FPV drone like the Avata 2 with a 3-axis gimbal that can act as both a proper camera drone platform as well as FPV. I'd gladly trade a bit of noise/battery like to have it. The 3-axis gimbal is not that heavy.

DJI is more than technically capable of producing a do-it-all drone but they won't as business sense tells them that they'd make more money making multiple different SKUs that are artificially limited.

And for that reason, they've lost a potential sales for the Flip. Myself, as many others, have been really hoping that it would do FPV like the Avata/Neo series, even if slightly less capable.

i THINK A 3 Axis Gimbal would be rather vulnerable on a proper FPV Drone

I agree, crashes would be more expensive compared to a freestyle drone with a fixed gimbal. However, most people flying cinematic FPV do very light freestyle (or not at all), for which something like the Avata series is perfect.

I think the market for that could be larger than traditional freestyling/racing drones. The Flip is the first DJI drone that has the right design (built-in prop guard) and hardware (3-axis camera gimbal) to be the ideal platform for both photography and videography (traditional and FPV flights included).

To make it happen, they just need to provide an FPV mode that locks all the axes on the gimbal, and also exports gyro data like the Avata/Neo. It's likely software limitation.

I've shown a fair few videos of my flights to other people, and most people were much more interested/amazed by my cinematic FPV videos (nice sceneries) rather than freestyle ones in parks. They would acknowledge the skills but still thought these videos were kinda boring to watch.

It's a real shame that the Flip was released with no FPV support. I was prepared to buy it if it even has rudimentary FPV mode support like the Mini 4 Pro (no gyro data so not possible to stabilise in post), but having no FPV mode at all is a deal breaker.

The Mini 4 pro and Air 3 are all compatible with the goggles 3 and work perfectly fine. I dont see why DJI doesnt allow the Flip to use the goggles 3 and N3. The blade are protected ocusync 4 with the same remote RC2 as the Mini 4 and Air 3.

Today I looked the reviews and the forums and it always talk of the lack of goggles 3 and N3 compatibility and Fpv possibilities.

Im asking like all the others.

Please bring the goggles 3 and N3 compability to the Flip.

Thank you.

Surely someone can look at the roadmap and see if it will be added soon ? May become the DJI Flop...
I want to fly all my drones with googles as its so much easier to see what the drone see rather than some small screen.

Since it isn't meant to be a FPV drone (price wise fairly similar to the Avata 2) it's somewhat understandable. Nevertheless, a future firmware update suggestion for me would be to have the ability to at least shoot unstabilized, sort of FPV-style footage optionally?

In my opinion, it seems unlikely that the DJI Flip will ever receive a firmware update to enable FPV functionality for the goggles. The folding propellers present a significant vulnerability, as they could fold during sharp or aggressive maneuvers. This would not only compromise stability but also put the 3-axis gimbal at risk of damage, especially during high-speed or sharp turns. It feels like a design limitation that makes FPV support impractical for this model.

I'd agree that FPV support might not be added to the Flip.

That said, not all FPV flights are done as racing, or even freestyling. The Avata series are good for cinematic FPV flights only due to its low durability (doesn't stop people from trying to freestyle with it, of course). The Flip should have no risk of its props getting folded with something like the RC Motion Controller, which the Mini 4 Pro only supports in FPV mode anyway.

As I've realised that the Flip has a 24mm lens rather than the 12-14mm lenses in DJI's FPV series, it wouldn't really work well as a replacement for even the Neo, as I originally anticipated.

The only reasons for FPV mode then would be to have a fairly immersive flight experience, or to fly under extreme brightness. They are still good reasons and I'd definitely prefer to have the options, but with the camera as it is, this can't be a replacement for the Neo.

Flying in bright sunlight and having the immersive  flight experience are the reasons I bought the Flip to fly with Goggles and certainly not for racing, see below:

Argh, I ordered the Flip right away when it became available and did not read the fine print. Have also the NEO and was totally convinced that the Flip is the big brother of the NEO and thus OF COURSE supports the Goggles. It does not make sense that the small one supports it, but the more expensive big one does not – in the same category!

This is really a big bummer. I like the NEO, but the cam is just not good to take pictures and the noise also kind of kills you. I hoped the Flip would fix. Someone who is buying an Flip is certainly not a Racer, there are many other drones much better suited for this. The NEO is certainly also not a racer drone. Most of us fly cinematic FPV anyway.

For me the emersion with the Goggles is really the important thing here. The RC2 display is nice, but really very small. The possibility to wear Goggles when doing a small video or foto project is really a big benefit.

Hi there, thank you for bringing this to our attention. To make it easier for more users, even beginners, to operate, the DJI Flip adopts a simpler control method and supports smartphone control. This design brings portability and operational convenience, making it more suitable for everyday aerial photography scenarios.

However, we understand that different users have different needs and interests. If you have higher demands for flight control and wish to experience the immersive flight experience brought by motion control, you might consider the DJI Neo and DJI Avata series products. These products are designed for immersive flight from structure to performance, paired with flight goggles and racing joysticks, providing a more immersive and free flight experience. Thank you for your understanding and support!

DEAR DJI Natália,

DJI neo has a poor camera. DJI AVATA2 is big to carro and  DOES NOT HAVE AUTONOMOIS FLIGHTS like Neo and Flip.

I WILL NOT BUY DJI FLIP UNLESS FPV FLIGHT is available. The FPV FLIGHT does not have to be perfect.  Can be a sinple cinematic versão.

Not supporting the DJI Goggles seems like huge mistake imo and will likely turn a large number of potential customers away especially if it’s just a simple software upgrade. Come on DJI you’re doing a disservice to yourselves and your loyal customer base, myself included.

Thank you for your response. I truly value your perspective. The DJI Flip represents a groundbreaking advancement in portable drones, specially crafted for vlog-style aerial photography. It delivers a lightweight, efficient, and user-friendly experience, making it ideal for high-altitude and close-up shots. However, we recognize that every user has unique needs and preferences. If you seek enhanced flight control and wish to fully immerse yourself in the exhilarating world of aerial photography, consider exploring the DJI Neo and DJI Avata series products. They offer exceptional capabilities that cater to your ambitions.
