Hey all. Drone noob here. I recently purcahsed my first ever drone, a DJI mini 2, and while it takes amazing video, I've found myself somewhat bored of the whole flying experience and how limited and restricted it is with these GPS drones. I've decided to return the mini 2, as great as it is, and get a long range FPV drone instead. With the limited research I've done, I've decided on the GEPRC Crocodile Baby 4 HD (GEPRC Crocodile Baby 4 HD Long Range FPV(New F722 AIO) - GEPRC).
All the reviews I've watched have great things to say about it, I'll most likely be able to get similar footage with the croc that I will with the mini 2, but in addition I'll have the freedom to actually fly around acro style and can just attach a 4K camera on top later.

My question however relates to the FPV goggles and controller I'll need. Can I buy the croc baby drone and pair it with something like this or does it have to be DJI hardware?

I appreciate any help

Not certain but I believe they will need to be dji. At least the googles will have to be.
 
Only DJI and my recommendation: get Avata, best FPV beginner and prof drone. Durable, good gimbal camera, awesome remote control, get FPV controller 2 together with motion controler. Promise u a lot of fun with. Here's mine set up for night flight 🛫🛫

You best option for a beginner like me too, is the Avata. A cheaper option is a Drone Mask that also works well but is a bit heavy and cumbersome.
