  • I have fatsharks but can’t remember exactly which, some mid range model (Dominator v2? Maybe?). I can adjust them to feel natural but after a few minutes, my head hurts and I need to close one eye. Kinda defeats the point of goggles so I mostly use my $40 AliExpress box goggles from 2016.

    I’ve used some other fatsharks and it was about the same experience. My friend has whatever the newest DJI set is (before they got banned in the US) but I haven’t tried them yet.

    [Edit] my goggles are indeed Dominator v2s and the other model I’ve used is the HDO or HDO2


  • Have you tried it? I don’t have vision problems but even I was really impressed with how “natural” it felt.

    I’ve done a lot of FPV flying with older goggles and it’s exactly as you describe - focusing on a screen that feels entirely too close. Not the case at all when I used my friend’s VR headset! I think he has a second gen oculus so it’s probably even better now.

    I can only fly FPV for half an hour before I get a headache but I binged like 2 hours of [VR escape room game I forgot the name of] with no issue


  • I’m on the AV side of things and am currently dealing with their cameras not working with the 3rd party extenders that HP recommended. And why do they need these extenders at all? Because they’re USB in 2025 and Poly refuses to make their own.

    We have 20 different installs going on with the exact same setup and HP is just like “huh that’s weird!”

    Bonus rant: before HP bought them, Poly had normal SKUs. Like you knew what the product was based on the SKU. You knew if it was hardware or a service line. Now, the Poly E70 (shit camera btw) for example has the SKU “67J25AA#ABA.” The E60 is "9W1A6AA#AC3.

    I asked our rep directly what the fuck was going on with this garbage and he told me HP stuck all the products on a spreadsheet and basically assigned the SKUs randomly. There is no rhyme or reason.
