It DOES IT ALL! | DJI O3 Air Unit

[@jhbuxton4]

I added stick extensions to the controller 2, made a big difference. Thanks for the vids Tommy.

[@WildCaptures]

Take my money DJI 🤷‍♂️

[@_sticks_]

This is what I've been waiting for. Both goggles and system quality 🤷‍♂️

[@JaydenLawson]

Taking your money is the one thing DJI are good at doing. Does this have insurance like GoPro offer?

[@abertheham]

Fr tho

[@xjet]

One thing about using a GoPro is that you can use the *same* GoPro across *all* your frames -- it's a one time cost. With the O3 you're paying to duplicate that 4K recording capability on *every* drone so unless you only have a few quads, the O3 option could be more expensive. The great thing about FPV though is... it's *ALL* good!

[@shadowofchaos8932]

Will you get a new O3 xjet?

[@xjet]

@@shadowofchaos8932 If I could afford one I'd buy one. DJI didn't send me one... I wonder why? It's also rather telling (so I hear) that DJI released this product in the colder months of the Northern Winter 🙂

[@robertfpv7733]

GoPro are more bulky and tend to break a lot more compared to the flight cam because they are unprotected. Also repairing a GoPro is sometimes a major pain so it might be worth it to some people to get the o3 air unit

[@xjet]

@@robertfpv7733 True... but GoPro offers that insurance thing which will replace a smashed unit for you. The O3 *will* be the best choice for some folk but other solutions will be a better solution for other folk. The great thing is that now we all have the choice!

[@NoflectioN]

Everyone complaining about backwards compatibility....it's been 3 yrs . This is technology. Could be worse...like an iPhone replaces every 6 months. Your not gonna want to fly your old vista's anyway once you have 1080p on OLED screens blazing your eyeballs.

[@andres.freelancer]

Oooooohhh yass❤ oh yass oooohhh yassss!!! This is the future of FPV mafriend, I know it! Then even the size of the drone will be better, imagine it on a cinewhoop, thankssaa

[@daverips_]

Super excited on the new system, looks like a nice step up! The one thing for me why the FPV cam will never work for freestyle is exposure handling. So many pilots prefer to lock their exposure settings and you just can't do that using the FPV system.

[@DrMacca]

Yup, that's me - I prefer the exposure locked in my footage (of me crashing into a tree/wall/asphalt lol).

[@Flamenawer]

You must love the latency then

[@JaydenLawson]

Agreed

[@trigatupp]

I stopped action cams with 1st DJI air units and only use frames with no props in view. I don't change tech very often. Looks like new air-unit & slimmer DJI radio in future maybe if Black Friday sale. I will continue to use my DJI2 googles until they no longer work then probably upgrade to smaller form factor. Nothing against GOPRO as I have the new 11 mini but not needing extra camera and prefer lower weight, longer flight (4S) time. Also the convivence of everything in one package makes build faster can do what enjoy most flying. Thank you for info yours was second I seen on this DJI 03

[@MSR.]

Super hyped on this new system, can’t wait to see your new frame design 👌😉👊

[@ricardowasher397]

Been hearing a lot about the O3 units. I bought the DJI FPV because I wanted to experience FPV without having to build my own. I guess now is the right time to take the plunge with this!

[@OriginaldoBo]

Demibot frame and O3 = Gold

[@SkeezyFPV]

Any dead cat frames you’d recommend for the new au, bro? I wouldn’t mind the demibot but I don’t want to wait. I want to be flying with my new air unit next week not looking at the unopened box waiting for a frame 🤷‍♂️

[@ronniefpv]

I like everything that this Air Unit has to offer except it doesn't record audio..I like prop noise so I'll still use a GoPro for the time being. Great review as always. 👍🏼

[@jaechoe]

Thank you Tommy for "Having The Dream"!!!!!!!!

[@natec7398]

Will this fit in the 2fiddy no problem? 😀🕹

[@jinlongliu1514]

An ultralight 5’’ setup would be a perfect combo with this!

[@Noacopter]

This change the game… 🔥🔥🔥

[@ChrisParayno]

1 camera, 2 purposes, and gyro data...sold! Hey Tommy, does any of your current frames fit the new o3 unit camera?

[@dr.luisguerra1445]

Puff! I'd like to have this amazing new dji system to enjoy even more my flights! Thank's Tomy!

[@ferrarifan111]

Well, I have watched several pro's take on the new system. You are by far the best salesman for it, and have convinced me to eventually switch. Thanks!

[@edrone_]

Awesome review Tommy! I will be referring anyone curious right over here brother. Best intro! 👌🔥😎

[@MagicFPV]

How much does the new air unit weigh? 🤔 Wondering if it could be a sub 250g option

[@JeromeDemers]

Albert Kim made me come check your review because he flew with you!

[@PowderMill]

👍🏼 Outstanding presentation! And… thanks for the video…AS ALWAYS.

[@DominicClifton]

Great video, very interesting. I knew it was worth holding out before I invested into digital stuff. :D

[@PhantomFPV]

Excellent review Tommy!!! I’m drooling and can’t wait to get my hands on 5!!!!

[@JaydenLawson]

5?

[@PhantomFPV]

Maybe 6. Haha.

[@JaydenLawson]

@@PhantomFPV GoPro still eats this thing's picture quality - so it's a no go

[@PhantomFPV]

@@JaydenLawson no question. I want it for the FPV picture quality. Can’t say the DJI line of HD cams have been impressive.

[@troyski1558]

You have convinced me. I cannot wait till I get mine

[@Humboldt710]

Looks like a solid upgrade. Thanks for the review Tommy.

[@propabilityfpv]

Haha that intro was top notch! Nice review dude 👍

[@mantyfpv7409]

Definitley some excited stuff! I don't edit much and only fly freestyle so thinking about changing to this system to stop smashing action cams!!

[@CrazyKwad]

Oh-mma-God!!! That intro!!! 😂😂 send you a big hug man!!! Really interesting product!!! Thanks for sharing!

[@SWAYDRIFTAWAY]

So glad I didn’t pull the trigger on the Avata, now I wait for a good DIY build ready to go

[@nq0amark138]

IMHO, it's a game changer. I will not be flying with a go pro. Also, the fact it works with the RC 2, it's a no brainier for me. Kudos to DJI, they have sold me...I'm stoked. BTW, I'm a cruiser, not a racer so the little bit of latency is not a problem for me.

[@KushFPV]

Love from Kush

[@JohnIn2SonAZ]

Yup! Game Changer for me and my customers! Nice Work DJI.

[@parkswreckfpv3547]

Excellent video as always! this is amazing info and put together really nice. You were at the low end of the video length as far as what i have seen from other youtubers but you got all the important bits in and even went into things other youtubers didnt, with less time. Nicely done, very informative

[@daisyduck8593]

You will always gonna have 2 cams on it. On the DJI O3 Air you gonna add a 8K UHD 60p Action Cam because the near future standard is 8K UHD for your 75" TV and 28" PC-Monitor.

[@sandys-channel]

I think the O3 system will finally make me bite the bullet and get a DJI setup.

[@JaydenLawson]

Is it just me or do a lot of these comments seem suspicious? Like this one

[@Itsdarts]

I thought I was watching an Albert Kim video, I’m pretty sure he does test flights at that park in the first flight video

[@joshlikessurfing]

Looks Awesome! Still going HDZero. Much worse picture, way more control and community integration. Also closer to what I need for computer vision projects. Also whoop boards!

[@KOrnhOliO1]

Come on man! 🤣🤷‍♂HDZero couldn't even fly around the first corner behind those buildings! Absolutely TERRIBLE penetration! Plus, you'd have all sorts of snow just getting to the first corner where you would undoubtedly get the RAINBOW WALL of blank screen! The image is so damn soft, you can't even begin to fly up in the trees canopy, like even the Vista can do just perfectly fine...I do it all the time and it's a total blast - exiting thick tree canopies through a little 8" x 8" gap! Incredible. I can't see a single reason why ANYONE would want to buy analog or HDZero (ANALOG2). Don't give me that lower latency crap as that is blown way, WAY out of proportion and actually doesn't make a bit of difference unless you are a very competitive racer and that's all you do.

[@JaydenLawson]

@@KOrnhOliO1 ​ as @xjet pointed out, a huge reason is that you’d have to buy multiples of these units for every quad or plane or system you own. With a GoPro, you just put it on the other quad, and it has insurance. As someone else pointed out - a huge issue with a one-camera system is auto-exposure. So many ppl want their exposure locked, meaning you’ll be blinded in bright areas or won’t see in dark areas, so this is an instant dealbreaker. And for me, I shoot a lot in 2.7K, 240fps in 10 bit colour with a GoPro HERO11 Mini - as far as I can tell - this system is nowhere near that. Otherwise, I use the 8:7 sensor to shoot 5.3K footage for both 16:9 and 9:16 application. Again… this system falls far short of that

[@manuelfalcon334]

What’s up Tommy hope all is great, love the video. Was wondering if you are thinking of coming out with a frame for the new o3 unit or some new 3d parts for your 2fiddy frame? Please keep us posted.

[@pianomans1]

So it's been about 2 months since the O3 release. I bought the Flywoo LR4 explorer with o3 and also purchased one O3 system to retro fit into my emax babyhawk2hd. It will say that was a little tricky. I got everything mounted then realized I had a ton of jello in the onboard 4k recording. So I made some modifications to how the camera was mounted and booom no more jello! Freaking awesome. This was done with no additional parts. I did have to cut off the tips at the front of the top plate. They were in view in the ultra wide setting. Now it's perfect. It is probably my favorite every day flyer. It's small enough to fly at a park with some people around. But big enough to tear it up when you want to. I will say i am not a huge freestyle pilot.. But I do some tricks when cruising around. I know I tend to be more careful when flying with this camera. Not sure how much of. Beating it will take a d as for now. Dji is the only camera option.. I upgraded all my other vista's to the latest firmware so I can use the googles 2 with every quad. Soooooooo cool! With the oled displays the Vista video even looks a little better. I can definitely tell a huge difference in range between the vista's and the O3 air unit. Wowwwww. Thanks you dji for knocking this one out of the park!! Looking forward to what their next big move will be for us.. ???? COULD IT BE 4K IN THE GOOGLES.??? HOLY SHIT THAT WOULD BE MIND BLOWING LOL! One down side is my dad not being able to watch my flights in my beautiful oled fold4 with digiview. I hope they or someone is working on this issue!! Is there a way to share my live feed with someone that I don't know about other then another pair of googles!! Phew I'm done lololol

[@RubyS.1]

I found this channel a long time ago because we both had the same hexacopter. Giant RXs and vtxs with airplane escs and I was flying off a screen. That was only 6-7 years ago seems longer

[@glitchunicorn]

seems like dead cat frames are going to be more popular

[@glitchy8429]

I think for freestyle, this is definitely a game changer. You don’t need cinema quality footage, and this thing is practically as good. Honestly this is the first time I’ve really felt like switching from analog. The weight savings alone is huge and the quality is finally what I expected the first generation to be. It would be great for the 3.5”-4” market too. A sub 250 3.5” with built in 4k recoding would be amazing. Idk how well it would fit, but I’d assume this would fit most places a vista would.

[@NOT_ANOTHER_FPV]

I'd just buy the v2 goggles and caddx and save money - it's the same damn thing

[@NoflectioN]

@@NOT_ANOTHER_FPV it's not the same. Not even close. The oled screens and 1080p make for an entirely different experience than v2 with 810p on lcd screens.

[@StacemanFPV]

Does it record audio?

[@furulevi]

Runcam Split already did this years ago (at lower quality)

[@ScantmanTV]

“isn’t that the park that @Albert Kim always flies at? … Oh shit he’s the one holding the camera 😂”

[@kibbycabbit]

Haha, came here to say this.. haha it must be a cross-over! Albert Kim x Ummagawd

[@MrSmithFPV]

Great review Tommy. Would like to see a range test on open field with that system. Would be great. :)

[@DavidTaghehchian]

I'm hesitant. Mainly because of DJI's complete lack of loyalty to the customers and commitment to delivering what the community is asking for. Perfect examples, canvas mode. They put it on O3, but never implemented in first and second gen goggles. I presume having it on O3 means it is absolutely something they can implement on the first gen system itlf they want to now.

[@explodingevo]

considering 3rd party hacks enable it,it could have easily been done ages ago. also removal of features in software is a disappointment . dji has promised o2 compatibility with goggles 2 which I'm waiting for.

[@DavidTaghehchian]

@@explodingevo spot on.

[@bengordon7635]

still to blotchy RunCam Phoenix 2 best analog camera with TX800 tx $65 total cost and looks great when DJI gets over 120 fps in 4k then we will see flying fast low to something 4k is terrible

[@an_R_key]

I fully agree.

[@divingfalconfpv4602]

Yea they waited for google 2 to be able to sell more googles

[@codcopter4167]

Hey Tommy - Thanks for putting this together and sharing your views. I really liked the range test - cant wait to see it 'out on the road' with you (hope you hit some southwest shiznit soon). ---Peace!---

[@clovrfpv]

Still no backwards compatibility with the old air units. I won't be moving to this until I can use the upgraded goggles for the old units as well. I'm planning on using these for mainly freestyle builds and using the GoPro quads for production work

[@NoflectioN]

Your not gonna care...once you have 1080p on OLED goggles. Your not gonna want to fly the old stuff. It's been 3 years! It's old technology! People demanding that dji accommodate, but nobody else in tech does this. The sun is setting on the 1st gen dji fpv system and for some nutty reason there are guys buying into it all over again with walksnail system lol If your doing production work your might want the o3 air unit to stream out to several devices for others to see your flying in real time. Might as well have them see it in 1080p. It's almost same weight as vista anyway. Adding the gopro isn't gonna change much from the way the drone handled with a vista

[@DarrenAllatt]

Any chance on a updated 2Fiddy that would fit the 03 camera and air unit?

[@baggszilla]

Damn! Done changed da game!

[@allthewayonehunnid879]

HELLLLL NAW at that intro! You wrong as hell for that filter! 😂

[@lj516]

Been waiting for these to drop for a few months! Purchased one from your link, thanks!

[@Nine_883]

If you covered this I apologize. I must have missed it. Nobody is speculating on whether or not DJI will release other cameras that will work with this drone or whether or not the cameras like the Nebula Pro will work with this air unit. For instance let’s say I smashed the 4K camera yesterday, but I need to fly today. Can I take a spare Original air unit DJI cam or a Nebula Pro off of another drone and hook it to this air unit? Or is that going to be always impossible? In a pinch this would be a pretty good thing since that 4K camera is going to be so vulnerable sticking out there like that. It’s hard to protect right now until people start designing frames and TPU mounts for it.

[@mdk42o74]

I was going to get a gopro for my drone but after i fly the avata i desided to get the new 360 cam. I feel that the 03 cam is perfect for me but if your doing drones for a living i can see using a gopro may still be needed

[@manski209]

just ordered an air unit, so psyched!!!! how does the video look on goggles v2? I'm on the fence about the new goggs

[@KOrnhOliO1]

I'm sure it looks absolutely FANTASTIC! Watch JB's video....he shows a still image comparing the two. Watch it on a big 4K TV....not your phone. You can hardly see the difference between 810P (V2's) and 1080P (goggles2). 810P looks great! The thing that's really co0ol, is the way it breaks up is almost undetectable, and the Rock Steady image stabilization built in (or use Gyro Flow) and the extended range. In JB's video he shows flying way down to this BLIND HILL sign (I don't think he's ever range tested that far away!) and he has a great, without question very flyable, image even with 2 - 5 mbps! It's amaZing!
