    yes that's the problem, rob!
    I only have the 922 aviators with the wide FOV - there is no way to view the image at that kind of distance.
    looks like major hacking required

    Rob,

    Sorry but I think I am changing my mind about modified goggles all together. The problem with a Ski mask or motor goggles based video goggles is the time it takes to take the mask off.

    I attach a link to a website I have found that sell V. Very expensive goggles - $18,000 would you believe, BUT the design of some of them is brilliant - a 'flip down' type. This would be the ultimate solution in my opinion.

    Any thoughts on this Rob ??

    If anything, I think modified goggles would make it easier to go from LoS to goggles or vice versa.
    You can put the goggles on, slide them up and rest them on your forehead to launch and just slide them down when you're in the air. The elastic band keeps them in place at all times.
    Only FPV crash that I've had that actually broke a plane was when I couldn't get my unmodded MyVu goggles on quick enough and lost control and went into a nice death spiral. Would not have happened if I had had them modded into a ski mask.

    Is it possible to think of a better solution, such as a flip-down visor thing? Sure! Is it cost-effective and worth the hassle? Apparently not if it costs $18K. :-)
    There's a reason a lot of people use ski goggle mods, they work.

    I don't disagree with either of the previous 2 posts, but:

    @nkkromhof
    trying to "slide down" ski goggles OVER a pair of spectacles one handed, whilst still controlling the plane with the other hand seems to me to be very risky. Slightest 'snag' on my spectacles, etc. and I've probably got a crash. Similarly trying one handed "slide up" a ski mask OVER a pair of spectacles on - say an approach for landing - NOT for me thankyou.

    @rob
    I wasn't suggesting BUYING anything from the linked website - just saying I like some of the "flip down" designs.

    yes i now lol fun lol

    my write is bad i now,,hard to write but it,s oke

    btw

    if you have to control the plane just before landing???? you fly a jet or 3D plane

    my skywalker came into the wind,,,i can thake off my goggle,,,,light a smoke,,, and control rc for landing [ lol ]
