Remember the first version of the Quanum Goggles (see blog post here)? they were quit popular and now they are even better, according to HobbyKing.
This new version features a 5” TFT monitor with 3X-magnifying lens and a 800 x 480 super pixel display. In addition, the screen does not turn blue when signal is getting weak or lost and this is must have feature for FPV.
Other changes are a better fit to your face contour, pockets for Head Tracker, switcher, FPV receiver and small Lipo pack.

This one supports wearing glasses. See the new video HobbyKing uploaded, glasses are mentioned around 2m30
I have glasses too and not found a really good solution. I have used a 7in LCD with some good results.
So what about us old timers who wear glasses? Do any of these allow adjustments so we can actually see the screen? Would like to try FPV, but that question has been holding me back.
@ Sgt Ric - I may heed your advice in future. But it still makes me feel ill just thinking about that day.
@ benbojangles, I know what you mean about the nausea!
I worked my way up by playing FPV files off Vimeo, and then straight TV through my Headplays.
Also, you MUST sit down! (lawnchair,etc.) ...there's no way you should try standing!
Cool products. Unfortunately I have not had the best experience using fpv goggles - I've puked and fallen over, then gave up. But I was flying unstabilised in the wind probably... Anyway you can Make your own tutorial: http://dalybulge.blogspot.co.uk/2014/10/ghetto-fpv-monitor-on-stero...
The FCC guidelines generally refer to cell/wifi antennae used asynchronously, not when used for R/X only.
No danger here.
Yep, The fatshark Dom HDs have the lipo against one temple and the antennas on the other side. Not really what I call healthy (battery against head, antenna not 25cm away according to FCC)... It's a hard case, not that comfortable. It + the antenna weighs the whole thing down that you have to over tighten the strap. I'm one of those people that loses focus if the goggles shift or get bumped--I hate it.
Cinemizer+ski goggle mod is the best set up I've used, clarity is better than a Oculus (best is w/a black magic capture card, and some custom s/w ;) ), but the FOV is terrible.
Another build-log from my colleague:

Fatshark uses Lipos as well
And 5" no Bluescreen TFTs with 800x480 are quite cheap:

We use that ones in our DIY googles.
