DJI O3 IS HERE! But is it better than HDZero, Avatar, or DJI V1? Let's find out!

[@tehllama42]

I'm sure this wasn't the intent, but it really made me appreciate how good both the v1 DJI system, and HDZero are for how I fly. Looks like a pretty solid answer I've found myself with.

[@ChrisRosser]

Honestly, the intent was to have you make up your own mind. So mission accomplished for me.

[@tehllama42]

@@ChrisRosser Tragically, I'm somewhat following my own sunk cost bias in that regard - I think the 03 system's flexibility to handle the whole gamut of non-racing applications really well is practically excellent, and you spelled that out remarkably well. Particularly for the

[@KaminKevCrew]

That’s basically where I’m at too. Does the DJI O3 look better than all the other systems? Sure - as long as you have enough light (if/until they update that). But if, like me, you’re either going to fly with a GoPro or no action camera anyway (that’s exclusively how I fly. I don’t have any situations personally where I want to fly something smaller but still have high quality footage), I don’t think the O3 system actually brings anything compelling to the table. All of the digital systems (DJI OG, DJI O3, Walksnail, HDZero) give enough resolution/fidelity to see scraggle and small objects from far enough away to react, which was (for me at least) the main downfall of analog - though I do still fly analog quite a bit. Because of that, the added expense of the O3 system just isn’t worth it/I don’t think DJI actually cares about the FPV hobbyists. They seem to only care about the professional market (which makes sense, as I’m sure that’s where they sell the most units). Additionally, I’m not actually convinced that FatShark cares about the wants and needs of the community, as historically they have really only added features to their goggles as a reaction to other players in the market (power buttons/fully powered OLEDs, etc.) HDZero, by contrast has put in an immense amount of effort with their goggles to meet the needs/wants of virtually the entire FPV community that has an interest in their system. Fully integrated HDZero that doesn’t have the 1 frame of additional latency that HDMI does - check. Analog integration with full low-latency de-interlacing for higher quality - check. To knowledge, HDZero is the only digital system that won’t have the additional frame of latency between the receiver and the screens, which is amazingly cool. Additionally, de-interlaced analog is a first as far as I know. Oh, and they have a hardware power switch instead of a software button (also a first, though the significance of that is somewhat debatable). It just seems to me that in terms of video systems right now, HDZero just gets a lot right. I am definitely waiting to see where the Walksnail system goes, but the lack of any video input on the current goggles is just a complete dealbreaker for me.

[@cheechfpv]

Considering the image quality is marginally better than the V1. Everything else are negatives for me. It’s bigger and heavier, uses more energy, doesn’t perform good in low light, and it’s reliability needs to be proven. Plus GoPros image quality is better IMO

[@DevonSpittleREAL]

@@cheechfpv It's lighter than the dji v1 by ~10grams. Perks aren't enough to justify upgrading imho

This is hands down the best comparison of all the systems I have seen wow Chris you definitely knocked this one out of the park! Thank you for all you do on our hobby! 🙏🤟👍🔥🔥🔥

[@ChrisRosser]

Wow, thanks!

[@xjet]

A larger sensor doesn't necessary produce better low-light performance... it's more about pixel size. The O3 has a 48 megapixel sensor which means the individual pixels are *very* small and thus receive less light than in larger pixel sensors. This could account for its lower low-light performance when compared to the original.

[@rowannadon7668]

Some cameras also do “pixel binning” which basically produces a 12MP image and averages the value for each pixel across four pixels, not sure if O3 is doing that

[@RookieRay]

I really understood what you had to say and glad to find your channel from Joshuas review on your bind and fly. So thank you. I’m trying to get into FPV. I only have a tx16s and been practicing on the sim. I think your way of explaining and teaching would be perfect for a beginners guide into FOV components. It can be very demotivating to get into Fpv when building one is so difficult to understand all the parts and comparability. And some people like me want to build not buy a Bind and fly. What makes a good urban drone, a park flyer or a long range drone? What parts go with what? These basic questions are what puts noobs into a purchasing paralysis and sometimes never end up doing more than buying a simulator game. Your style of teaching could help allot of people out and get more into the sport.

[@ChrisRosser]

Thank you for the support! I'll definitely look into producing a beginner series once all this O3 stuff has died down!

[@JekleFPV]

Damn, V1 and HDzero blow the rest out of the water for what I’d like see in my goggles! HDzero seems to have a better grip on dynamic range, details in the shadows and low light! I’ll admit I’m a bit of an HDzero fanboy, but I didn’t expect this! Especially seeing that the image in the goggles is usually a lot better than the DVR! Shame it got blown out by the rest of the pack!

[@starsstripesjacket]

To my suprise i actually thought the DJI V1 looked the best but i preffered the HDzero image for flying just because there was less shadows

[@Tomstoy2]

Excellent test, thanks!!! Having v2 and Scout HD’s, my thoughts at this time are; 1. DJI - might try out the O3, but seriously concerned about the heat. I’ll give it time and see how that works out. The new goggles,,, not really that interested as I really hate latency. 2. HDZero - it’s ability to manage low light when transitioning from bright is fantastic, and I find shadow detail on par with anything. You loose some quality, but where it truly shines is the very low fixed latency. It’s ability to play nice with others is a plus! Give 😂Carl some time, he’s already working on 1080p. After he’s done with the goggle release he’s going to want to fill his free time!

[@Inertia888]

I started my fpv journey this past autumn, with DJI v2 & Air Units/Vista. It's been a great start, and I am happy I started where I did. But I am now looking at starting an analog build, and HD Zero looks to be the place to begin that next step in my systems set-ups. There is so much competition in the market, right now. I will wait until around early summer of 2023 to see how everyone develops, but HD Zero's open-source attitude is the icing on the cake. Can't wait to see what else comes around the corner, both with manufacture's development, and the open-source community!

[@mcclarinscott]

For flying in winter, and with mixed low light and day time, and whoops that can go from low light to bright lit rooms...I am going to HDZero. also for lowest latency, and higher quality Analog at the same time in the new HDZero Goggle...

Great review, you sure you didnt reverse the Walksnail and O3 videos by mistake LOL. The Walksmail daytime video looks awesome! I have watched other reviews and everyone is saying the O3 is the best image they have ever seen? I just picked up a WS system and gotta say I am blown away at how good it is especially in a smaller 1S form factor. I think I am going to sit on the fence for a bit and watch this play out and just enjoy my DJI Vista and WS hardware for now as this race is far from over. One thing I can say is each of the goggle suppliers have absolutely done their homework as they each have something to offer which is great to see as it brings more FPV pilots into the hobby.

Best review for now, thanks. Watched various comparisons and I am not sold, will stick to my V1 for now.

After a year of new products and hype it looks like the original DJI system is worth staying with. I would like to try 03 system. The avatar picture looks good during the day even if the shadows are a little dark.

Did you or are you thinking of doing any latency tests with the O3 unit running on the v2 googles at 120fps. I'm curious how it would compare to the V1 system at 120fps.

[@vonpwnz0r]

Hi Chris, fantastic video! What is the video latency of the O3 used with v2 goggles at 810p/120hz? Also fairly often the sound of your videos is not properly synced, not by much but enough to be annoying

Outstanding in-depth comparison! Thanks for cutting through the hype with real useful data!

[@biggfpv2721]

I know this sounds crazy but i think the ws image had more detail from watching on my phone

I like the WS image the best personally for flying. With the exposure turned up a little it has lots of useful detail on highlights and shadows.

[@gloriousquads]

Good analysis Chris!

[@kandredfpv]

Hahaha, damn Chris, you science'd the hell out of those digital FPV systems. There goes all our subjective bias! 😂

[@BimoWicaksono]

opt for HD zero for light weight & great dynamic range, but mediocre in range / penetration opt for DJI V1 for great range / penetration and have good dynamic range (not the best), but have disadvantage on the weight if you have more budget and don't mind with the underperformed dynamic range, you can opt for DJI 03, it has awesome range and high quality of image

[@MurdersFPV]

After having flown the O3 for about three weeks now, I'm incredibly shocked I haven't noticed this increased latency. I always thought I was someone who would notice since I can feel the "sluggishness" of Crossfire vs Tracer. There has to be some correlation between seeing things more clearly and the perception of "latency".

[@StR8KiLLA_FPV]

I completely agree... the weird part is I can definitely feel 50ms when flying on high quality mode on my v2 goggles with current vista on 50mbps but the 03 felt exactly the same while recording 4k... interesting

[@rafaelgonzalezmorales1824]

I wasn't able to spot the 03...I like both the v1 and Avatar. The v1 seems to do very well in shaded areas but I also like the contrast offered by the Avatar

[@aphinion]

Amazing comparison, thank you! In your blind test my favs where HDZ and the original V1, O3 was my least favorite? That came.... as a surprise to me. Without mounting points I also have doubts it will survive in a freestyle frame doing up to 10G as just it's standard performance... and much more in crashes. I guess I'll grab some HDZ goggles and build a AOS 5.5 HDZ quad next year :3

@@seanconnolly2179 it will really be latency vs. quality for now. which is cool indeed, cause there is good reason for both

[@nq0amark138]

I have been waiting to see how the competition stacks up before I dive in. That said, I do own the DJI FPV drone and the Avata and have the RC 2 controllers for both drones and V2 goggles so I will most likely move forward with the DJI O3 system as I really like the idea of flying without a go pro or other camera mounted on the drone. And with the new system being compatible with the RC2 controller DJI sold me with this release. I'm also a cruiser and am not concerned with latency so much. Great review. Cheers.

[@razorblade7108]

Running with the V2 goggles you can choose 810p at 120 FPS and get the same low latency as the OG DJI Air Unit. The latency is connected to the framerate, so at 100 FPS the Goggles 2 have slightly higher latency by nature. What I don't like on the O3 is the detail in dark areas compared to the OG Air Unit and that recording settings are linked to the settings you fly with. It's quite limiting

[@timmyturner6996]

I'm down to the V1 and the O3 Air Unit, though I'm leaning more on the O3 as obviously, the image quality has been upgraded by a great deal. And as a new unit, there's more possibility that its capabilities will expand as months go by.

[@dangerous8333]

Assumptions.

[@keFPV94]

still happy with my v1 after seeing this👌

[@razorblade7108]

The O3 air unit can also be mounted with long M2 screws with a 25 x 25 mm spacing. DJI designed it so that you can remove the standard screws and mount it this way.

[@baggszilla]

Thanks Chris! Very well put and on point as usual buddy! I'm afraid as compelling as this O3 System is I'll be sticking with my V1's with the WTF Root Hack. As you said it suits my type of flying. Cheers!

Down left was my favorite and I am so happy I have the system. 👀

[@andrewbt87]

why didn't you test O3 on the V2 googles at 120fps? that will give the best latency of the system

Thx Chris. I was hoping the 03 Air Unit would allow me to get rid of my GoPro for Freestyle (very fast, with proximity) flying....Latency numbers not looking good..... I'm happy to see the 03Air Unit, but it appears I'll be sticking with Vista's

[@tk-maker]

you can have 1 gopro for n numbers of drones, with o3 you get 1 o3 per drone. great if you have $$$

[@SuphiKaner]

I was not able to correctly identify the O3 system I got the V1 and O3 mixed up and if I had to pick what I prefer I would pick the V1. When I go back and watch the video again I can see that the O3 has more detail but feels like its a little out of focus or maybe the V1 is over sharpened. When I look at the building in the distance feels like I can pick out more detail on the V1 and when we add the fact that V1 has better low light and latency it becomes a clear winner for me

[@ChrisRosser]

V1 is definitely sharper. 'Oversharpened' is down to personal preference I think.

[@SuphiKaner]

@@ChrisRosser Yup that sharpness does give the illusion of more detail, for instance if we look at 8:32 on V1 and WS we can see the details of the fabric of the sofa but its just a blur on the O3. I think if WS could get a better camera and improve there color science they could come out on top as having the best image/latency combo but for now V1 feels like the best option for me.

[@MineServersSKCZ]

To me, it clearly looks like a dirty/smudged lens.

[@charharn7011]

Honestly the DJIS V1 is by far the clearest and deeper zoom with clarity. It would be nice to be able to fly in a reduced light setting however it is not a game changer.

[@BrainDeadEngineering]

It might sound odd for most: Very apparent lower pixel resolution but color and contrast was what hit me.

This video has me all settled on that matter now thanks to you! Very grateful thanks 🙏

[@Itsdarts]

HDZero definitely had more detail in the shadows compared to all the others. The Media Offline flashing made it difficult to make a fair comparison. Both dji systems suffer in the shadows, but the Action 2 does as well, so I’m not surprised. I’ll enjoy flying without the extra weight of a action cam and hence, the added flight time without the extra weight. I look forward to the updated camera mounts of the AOS5 v1 and the 3.5 v2. Great review also.

[@plschrf2363]

Thank you. I am wondering about the exposure on the 03 though. I think it would be good to compare not only the default settings to each other but the maximum capabilities of the systems. I think it would be vital (for decisionmaking) for me to see if you can tweak the settings to make the transmitted video better. I'd love to see that.

I agree. This needs to be representative of actual use. For the people that care about image quality… they won’t be running defaults. That’s for sure! :p But Mr.Rosser did a very good job otherwise. Let’s hope he or someone else fills in the gaps we have, and we will have a full picture of what’s going on!

finally, properly indeepth analysis! I've been scouting interwebs for just this, MEGA THANKS! Question: how 4k-60fps onboard recording affects the preceived latency when you actually fly the drone while recording, is this clearly noticeable to the point that you kinda have to make tough decision - when to record and when to not record and to just enjoy flight?

[@ChrisRosser]

Depends on your flying style. It is not noticeable for smooth cinematic flight but is noticeable (but not deal-breaking) for faster more agressive flying.

[@MrPashee]

7:47 Now we all know what Chris uses Davinci Resolve 😂😂😂 GREAT test anyway ;-)

[@redbaronfpv8555]

The new goggles 2 and the new air unit v3 all remind me off the first attempt at dji fpv with the dji race goggles ( the very first box goggle white and the gray set they had anologe built in with the gray set ) the latency is from 40 to 50 ml sec. When the first system came out the FPV community said that 40 to 50 ml sec was to much to fly fpv. I fly the goggles v1 and v2 not the box style any more and can't see me going backwards for the new goggles 2.

Interesting. My first impression was that the V1 had crisper image than O3. But after pausing the video, you can see that the V1 is over sharpened (digitally). The O3 does give more detail. But it's not by much. I don't think you'd notice the difference during flight. HDZero is quite a bit fuzzy in comparison. I feel like you would see that difference in flight. But it definitely has better shadow detail which may be important for close proximity flight.

[@Indpendent01]

6:29 I preferred the DJI V1 (close second with the O3) until the low light tests 9:05, then I preferred the HD Zero 9:27. I like the contrast of the WS Avatar as it looks more filmic or better exposed but also lacks the dynamic range of the others. 8:35 The DJI O3 was really slow at adjusting iso for the switch from dark to bright environment.

[@zefixx6659]

Yes i was correct with both DJI Systems on the bottom. The right (O3) image is so much wider then the left (DJI V1) one. But in terms of quality both are closer then the top line. The O3 is still next level here... For low light the DJI V1 is clear better.... But ok for low light missions i would use the Caddx Polar Starlight Camera anyway.

Great comparison but the graphs don't seem to match up to the video. The time to first bright pixels seem to match up but the DJI V1 120fps seems to be the first to bright frame at 21 or 22ms since pixel and frame seem to occur at the same time. HDZero has updated scanned through only about 1/2 to 2/3 at that point. Was this just 'lucky' timing for the DJI V1 where the LED happened to turn on right just as the frame was being captured?

Hello! very good your tutorial! My question is, using the v2 glasses, is the difference in what is seen in the glasses very noticeable? between old air unit (with dji camera) and o3. Considering old air unit in high quality mode and 50mbps. Regards !

Need to see a penetration test for all the systems! That’s another factor :)

By chance will you be selling the front plates as spares to upgrade the 5"AOS v2 frame to work with the O3 cam?

Thanks Chris for this nice analysis, I am sure that I will stick to my OG DJI system (sounds weird) would cost to much for me to replace all my Vistas and airunits.

I've been trying to decide between HDz and DJI. I think it's HDz for me
