In that case the quantum goggles may be better than some other nicer ones like the headplays simply because of their lens' distance is adjustable
Cheap, yet good FPV setups to get you started

I bought this setup and can't get video to the screen. I'm a bit lost. I got the receiver you recommened for it the 8ch Boscam receiver and I just can't get it to work.
I have that receiver working with a 32ch setup, if you are using a 32ch transmitter then you need to get it on the right band as well as the right channel. Also I am running power directly off a 3S LiPo.
What part about it is not working?
Hahahahahahahaha. How big a hammer it take. I want to know for future reference hahahahaha.

LOL I just kept pressing the transmitter and receiver buttons over and over after already hitting it a few dozen times. It just locked in where it wanted to be. Then I hit it with a 12lb sledge.

Do you know of a decent DVR that will plug into the second video out on this receiver? I've been running a micro quad and want to record fpv

btw......... what size jack is that on the boscam for video? 1.5mm and 3.5mm are the common ones right? Is there a 2mm jack? I'm trying to figure out what I need. I'm pretty sure it's a 1.5mm jack
I think it is a 3.5mm (AKA 1/8'' or mini) but am not sure, it could be a 2.5mm sub-mini.
Here is a similar cable.

You're probably looking for something more along these lines:
However I'd ask some like @Mike H. who already has a Syma regarding their MTOW capabilities. Though I think if you get this and perhaps a mobius keychain camera or if you had a DVR to record with you'd be all set.
YOu might be able to get teh video out from the mobius or substitute their more expensive camera with something cheaper but of a lesser quality.
I think you should have a good FPV battery like this .
