Not true all the time. You can control the craft left and right direction control with head movement, using "motion controlled flight" mode. The direction is very slow to turn left or right, you'll never hit anything any easier than flying with the sticks when you navigate left or right. There are 3 modes to operate with goggles, the second is called "Motion controlled gimbal", which controls direction of the gimbal, up, down, left, right with head movements which does not affect craft direction, however looking full right or left, you can still see forward, the direction you're flying, given the 79 degree FOV. It appears you can only look left or right about 25 degrees (without the craft yawing), maybe 30 degrees. The 3rd mode is STANDARD mode where the goggle head movement has limited control of the gimbal up and down, but has no craft direction control, the controller is the master, it over-rides goggle craft direction control and gimbal movement, but gives some control to the goggle viewer when the pilot allows. This is an interesting capability, such as letting your wife see the flight through the goggles while you fly with the iPad and VLOS elsewhere, a good distance away. What's interesting to me is my wife could be a mile away while I'm flying the craft, and she's viewing my flight with goggles. She could be sitting at an ocean-side restaurant table, outside on the deck drinking wine, while I'm down on the beach a half mile away talking to her on the phone (bluetooth earpiece) flying the craft all around the area, and she sees everything through the DJI goggles at the table. You can even have two sets of goggles linked to one Mavic, so another person at that table could see too. This offers some interesting search and rescue options.
