They connect via HDMI, so you'll need to install the HDMI Output Module on your remote controller like this. You can buy that module here on Amazon or from DJI here.

Dji are not for FPV racing and fat sharks do not run Dji programs. Dji Goggles are more for cinematic. And running there soft ware so you can use Tri pod modes and others . Fat sharks just for viewing. So depends on what your plans are . There are you tube vids on the comparisons

You'll probably have better luck if you post this in the Classifieds (or on eBay).

Ed Hahn · Oct 3, 2017

No they did not

msinger · Oct 3, 2017

Which model of Fat Sharks did you buy?

I've seem some types, I think more like glasses, that you can see through to be able to see the drone. I believe they were Epson Moverio.

Has anyone experienced that type, and what do you think? Are there other brands of same thing?

I think Avegant is coming out with something called Lightfield that sounds interesting. I don't know the timeframe for those.

I got the Dominator V3 I think the box was open that's why I am missing
some things. I am sending it back. Once I get a refund I will order another
one. When you receive this should it be it some type of plastic wrap ?
Mine was not.

My experience was to visit a drone shop and try on the various FPV goggles on offer and make a decision from there. The fit and user experience is very subjective and the links supplied by @msinger in an earlier post whilst informative, still need you to try them on to see what works for you. Otherwise you may end up in a cycle of buying and returning goggles that may take some time.
Not sure if you are in a position to do this.

Since portability is a must-have for you, I'd buy the Avegant Glyph or Fat Shark Dominator V3.

That would be the ideal situation. However, I'm guessing the majority of people don't live near a drone shop that has all of those goggles on display.
