2017 Top 3 the best FPV Goggles？
what is 2017 Top 3 the best FPV Goggles?
FPV(First-person view) flying is an incredible experience. You can experience what it’s like to fly like a bird, zoom through your own personal roller coaster doing flips, rolls, crazy maneuvers, or if you are more relaxed, you can just soar and enjoy the view.
And if you’re a speed addict, you can race at breakneck speeds through airgates and around flags and obstacles.
A huge part of enjoying FPV is making sure you have the right equipment, and choosing the best FPV goggles is one of the most important purchase decisions you’ll make.
Before we get into the details…
Who am I?
I'm Lisa, the CEO and Founder of flysight. We are the professional FPV manufacturer,our brand is FLYSIGHT, I am passionate about finding and employing new technology that has the power to better our world.
I love this hobby and I want to share the love of this hobby with you. It’s very important that you have the right(but not necessarily costliest) stuff to enjoy the hobby fully – and this is something I wish I knew before I got started – so I hope my experiences will help you avoid some of the mistakes I made.
What to look for in FPV goggles
When you are looking for the best goggles for your fpv experience, there are a few things you’ll want to consider before making your choice.
Cost: As far as hobbies go, FPV flying is definitely more expensive than crochet or quilting! FPV goggles are a one-time investment, so you’ll have to be prepared to spend at least $200-400. There are some cheaper, ultra-DIY solutions, but at the end of the day, after all costs have been added up, they cost pretty much the same.
Form factor: For me, this is an important consideration. FPV goggles are of two types – box type and goggle-type. Box goggles such as the HeadPlay HD and Quanum V2 are very big and so a little difficult to carry. They are very comfortable on your face, but transporting them is a little cumbersome. Other goggles such as the flysight goggles are much sleeker and fit in a small case.
Receivers/frequencies: FPV flying for now is done by transmitting video the old-fashioned way – analog over frequencies! As far as flying multi-rotors(quadcopters) the most common frequency range is 5.8 gHz. Some goggles, such as the flsight and Fat Shark Predator have a receiver built in, while some, such as the Quanum V2 and Fat Shark Dominator require separate frequency modules.
Going into detail about frequencies is the scope of another post, but one thing you must know here is that frequencies have channels and bands. 5.8 gHz is a whole spectrum of frequencies, and most FPV flying is done over 40 channels. You must match the frequency of your video transmitter to the frequency of your receiver.
Some goggles like the HeadPlay HD and the Boscam goggles have a built in 32 channel receiver, which means they will be compatible with almost all transmitters. The flysight spx01 and flysight spx02 have an 8 channel receiver, and with the Quanum V2 and Fat Shark Dominator, you can have any channel receiver from the ones available, so there is a lot more flexibility.
Resolution and FOV: Resolution is the amount of vertical pixels by horizontal pixels the screen in your goggles is capable of showing. A higher resolution means a clearer picture. FOV stands for Field Of View – basically how much of your vision the screen can cover. Smaller FOVs are smaller screens – and larger FOVs are larger screens.
I’ll have a table for you below in which I’ll compare the FOV and resolution for different goggles.
Recording capabilities: Some goggles have a built-in DVR(digital video recorder). This lets you insert a memory card and record everything you see from the goggles. The recording will be nothing to brag about, because the camera sending the video isn’t the best, but this footage can be especially useful in retracing your flight path when you go looking for a crashed quad!
Headtracking: Certain models also have a feature called headtracking in which the camera on your model will pan and tilt according to your head movements. This is more useful for slower and higher flying where you can get an immersive view of your surroundings.
On racing multirotors, you’ll be going so fast and in such tight spaces it is a bad idea to look away from exactly where your quad is going for even a split second!
Note: Remember to get a good camera, too!

Fat Shark Dominator HD3
The Fat Shark Dominator HD3 are the kings of the FPV goggle world. They are everything the Dominator V3s are, but better. The difference between the Dominator HD3s and the old HD V2s is that these have a slightly smaller FOV(42 degrees) which eliminates the blurring edges which caused problems in the older ones. The foam on the faceplate is also now velcroed on to the goggles, so you can remove the foam and wash it or just replace it.
If you’ve got the cash, get these goggles. But if you are tight on your budget, stick to cheaper goggles like the flysight fpv goggles
You’ll need a separate receiver module, so that’ll give you the flexibility of flying on whatever bands you wish to fly on. There is also a HDMI input so you’ll be able to receive HD video on the goggles – from DJI lightbridge, a Connex module, or even from your TV. The screen resolution is 800×600.
