The other day I found myself hijacking another thread about goggles with a p3p. I stopped and decide to start my own thread so as not to tick off the OP.
I have visited my hobby shop and they don't seem to be giving me proper advice in that they are telling me putting goggles on a phantom is a complicated issue due to issues I am not comfortable with. They talked about video channels not being compatible with the p3p as the phantom is not designed for goggle operations. They went on and on till I finally departed, without goggles and completely confused. So here I am hoping you can help me.
I am considering Fat Shark Dominator HD, Fat Shark V3 or the Head Play Goggles.
1. It appears as though I can just come home plug in the power cord, plug in the video cord of the goggles to Phantom 3 controller and away I go. Is that correct?
2. I read somewhere a discussion about what app you need to use. Is a separate app required and if so which one and where do I install this?
3. Could someone please tell me the steps to get goggles hooked up to the Phantom?
I had planned to have the hobby shop take the phantom and give it back to me with the goggles working, as part of the purchase agreement. Given their knowledge base I have decided that is not my best option, so I am back to considering doing it myself ( not my preferred option given my relationship with electronics). Anyone willing to talk me through this would really be appreciated. I am not comfortable making this purchase without self confidence I can do this myself.
Thanks to all for just getting through this wordy post. I wanted you to have as much info as possible.
