http://www.banggood.com/Wholesale-Theater-Virtual-Digital-Video-Glasses-For-iPhone-6-6-Smartphone-p-51398.html


I had some queries:

1>Will I have an issue with Customs ? I live in NOIDA

2> How much time will it take to reach here > Any past experienced buyers ?

3> If things go wrong or I have to return it, what are my options ?

One other question, Its fine right if I use these glasses for my FPV setup :D ? Just gettng a second opinion :)

My Order from 11-11-2014 through Registered China Post is still with Delhi Customs which means another 15 days!!

My Express EMS order from 24-12-2014 through Singapore post is also with Delhi customs which means another 5 days max!!

My Order from 26-12-2014 through Fedex IP was delivered on 2nd Jan 2015 with 20% duty.

All the above from AliExpress... :)

parichya.gautam

Getting RF transmitting devices over China Post or HK Post is a bit of a gamble. I had two parcels carrying 433mHz and 915mHz transceivers held by customs and never released, I managed to get a refund in time though.
Request the seller to label the parcel as nothing that might indicate it to be an RF device. I got mine labeled as health care products.

the working is good!! you can notice in the image 0384 the glue!! i went back to the store to replace but saw that all the models were the same!! actually the manufature claims that the video device can be detached from the glasses, i think that is why it is loose, i glued it permanently to the glasses, you cant remove it,atleast dont try to!!

@parichya, if you can stand the advice of an "out of towner" I'd be inclined to purchase the Fat Shark type of glasses. They completely block off all light from other than the screens. Using FPV with open glasses will tend to wash the screens with light and make it harder to see a lot of detail. I've only seen one person use these glasses and he looked rather silly with a blanket over his head to block out the light. Admittedly the enclosed goggles are more expensive but they have the added advantage of having a receiver completely self contained in the goggles and they have much larger battery fitted.

I admit I almost purchased a set of this type of open glasses but after seeing the blanket trick I put off buying until I had more cash to invest. There's little I hate more than buying something and then discovering I would have been better off buying the correct item in the first place. These aren't designed for FPV work and I don't believe you'll be happy with them.

Good luck and Happy flying.  Stu

I do agree!! But I did a fpv with just a hat on for avoiding light and was good !! Needs some mod!!

We all do agree with propfella, :)   sir ,

Still investing in a 20K INR Fatshark or Skyzone FPV goggle, is like ..... well for me at least, it is unimaginable !!
I would rather go for a Quanum DIY... or something of the kind discussed here.. I might do my own mods for making it suitable for my purpose .

EDIT : I just noticed, the title of this thread , sad to say I didn't find a word, 'FPV' or 'GOGGLE'    there !, considering what is to be discussed here, I find my words Irrelevant :(

I assure you that investing in a pair of Fat Shark Goggles was just as unimaginable to me. $400 out of my pension would have taken a fortnight's food from my table. However I came up with some cash in an unexpected way and I took the plunge. I had no idea that our friend parichya was in a monetary drought so obviously the thought is extinguished. I now wish I'd hung onto my old set so I could have posted them to him.

Actually I do have another set which has one slightly shadowed screen. I haven't worn them in a few years, I'll dig them out and see how bad it is. If it's suitable perhaps he'd let me know if he's interested. These are a sort of half way between his choice and the Fat sharks. They definitely work but I can't recall just how bad that shadow is. I',m not sure if a spare screen can be found for it. Leave it with me parichya, I'll test them.

As for the claim of being "off Topic" Rather pedantic of you sooraj.palakkad. I saw Buying from Banggood on the heading and as this was a discussion regarding "buying" a set of goggles I saw no need for the word Goggles or FPV to appear there. A false alarm perhaps :-)

By all means buy whatever you're happy with. I merely made a suggestion, as it turned out he can't afford to buy what I suggested, a shame but hey, that's life. :-) Just a small tip, try to stretch that imagination a little. Where would this world be without it?

Thanks a lot for your concern Propfella, appreciate it.
If you think the FPV one you have are still workable, let me know ?
I had saved up to buy a new mobile for myself ( wanted to upgrade from a dumbphone to a smartone) but the hobby sucked everything XD
