Got a pair of DJI FPV goggles sitting in your gear bag? You might want to check for a firmware update, as DJI has released new software for four models.
The Goggles 2, Goggles Integra, Goggles 3, and Goggles N3 have all received new software. The updates are relatively minor, with DJI focusing on bug fixes rather than adding new features. But there’s a bigger picture here: this week has brought a wave of firmware updates across DJI’s consumer drone lineup and remote controllers, too. From newer camera drones to older models that haven’t seen an update in a while, DJI has been busy refreshing its software.
The DJI Goggles 2 is getting firmware v01.14.0000, while the DJI Goggles Integra moves to v01.10.0000. DJI’s release notes for both models simply say the updates fix minor bugs. Owners will need DJI Fly app version 1.21.16, available for both iOS and Android.
The Goggles 2 remains an interesting option for pilots who want an immersive first-person-view experience without being limited to dedicated FPV aircraft. It features dual 1080p micro-OLED displays with refresh rates of up to 100Hz, adjustable diopters, and a compact design. Depending on the aircraft and firmware, it works with the DJI Avata, the OG DJI FPV drone, and the O3 Air Unit, as well as select camera drones, including models in the Mavic 3 series and the Mini 3 Pro.
The Goggles Integra offers a slightly different approach. It combines the battery and headband into a single design, reducing the need to manage a separate battery cable while flying. It also features 1080p micro-OLED displays with refresh rates of up to 100Hz. Its supported aircraft include the DJI Avata and DJI FPV, along with compatible DJI O3 Air Unit setups and select camera drones. The latest firmware doesn’t introduce any new capabilities, but keeping the software current is still worthwhile.
Moving to the newer generation, the DJI Goggles 3 receives firmware version 01.00.1600. DJI says this update fixes known issues, with DJI Fly app version 1.21.16 required here, too.
The Goggles 3 brings 1080p micro-OLED displays, refresh rates of up to 100Hz, built-in diopter adjustment, and Real View PiP, which lets pilots see their surroundings without completely removing the goggles. It supports the DJI Avata 2 and, with compatible firmware and controllers, select camera drones such as the Air 3 and Mini 4 Pro. That makes it useful for pilots who want an FPV-style perspective from more than just a dedicated FPV drone.
Finally, the DJI Goggles N3 gets firmware version v01.00.1300, also with fixes for known issues. Like the other three models, it requires DJI Fly app version 1.21.16.
At just $229, the N3 is DJI’s more accessible entry into immersive FPV flying. It features a spacious, single-piece optical design with 1080p displays and a built-in battery, and it can be worn over prescription glasses. Its supported aircraft include the DJI Avata 2 and DJI Neo, with compatible controllers such as the DJI RC Motion 3 or DJI FPV Remote Controller 3. It also supports the DJI O4 Air Unit series.
Before updating any of these goggles, DJI recommends noting personal flight settings, as parameters such as Return-to-Home altitude and maximum flight distance may reset during installation. Once the update is complete, restart the aircraft, remote controller, and goggles, then check those settings before taking off. If an update fails, restart the devices and DJI Fly or DJI Assistant 2, then try again.
