What’s up guys, welcome again to a different video! I’m tremendous excited for this one as we have now the O4 Air Unit Professional right here in my palms. As an FPV fanatic, that is going to be a totally new chapter for everybody flying FPV, and I’m tremendous pumped to let you know extra about it.
First issues first, DJI got here out not solely with the O4 Air Unit Professional right now; in addition they launched the common O4 Air Unit, which is a smaller air unit meant for use on smaller quads (sub 3-inch frames). It’s additionally meant for use for racing with ultra-low latency between 15 and 20 milliseconds, which is sort of insane. At the moment we’ll focus totally on the Air Unit Professional, as that is one thing that I’ve been utilizing for the previous couple of weeks, and I’ve loads of issues to say on this video.
Bodily Design and Options
Let’s study the O4 Air Unit Professional and see the way it stacks up in opposition to the older technology, the O3 Air Unit. Visually, we are able to see that the brand new unit retains its small kind issue, and whereas barely rising in size, it’s additionally a bit shorter than its predecessor, with a casing that has numerous vents for higher warmth dissipation from all sides.
On the right-hand facet of the unit, we have now the USB-C port for activation and file switch. The microSD card slot has moved from the suitable to the left facet, the place we are able to additionally see the bind button along with small textual content and an arrow indicating its precise location, as beforehand the button was not all the time very seen. I like this transfer.
Comparable textual content and an arrow can be seen on the again of the air unit the place we have now the connectors for the twin antenna, which now exit the unit as two separate antennas, versus the one antenna exit on the O3 Air Unit. On the entrance, we have now the digital camera cable in addition to the connector to plug in your flight controller, which fortunately is strictly the identical one because the O3 Air Unit, so swapping models in your builds shall be very straightforward.
Digicam Enhancements
The most important distinction comes from the entrance, the place we have now the brand new huge digital camera which now makes use of a 1/1.3-inch CMOS sensor. You may undoubtedly discover the large improve in measurement from the entrance while you evaluate the cameras facet by facet.
One factor I’m a bit of bit puzzled about is the brand new mounting holes on the brand new digital camera, which are actually positioned very in another way from earlier than. Because of this the best way you’ll be mounting this digital camera shall be completely different and will certainly require some diversifications to your body for mounting it softly and avoiding vibrations in your footage. I personally mounted it with one screw per facet solely to my GRC Vapor X body, and I haven’t actually skilled any points with vibrations myself, however I’m positive that received’t be the case for each single body on the market.
New Options and Efficiency
The most important new change coming to the O4 Air Unit Professional is the O4 transmission with a twin antenna design and a latency between 15 to twenty milliseconds, in comparison with the 30 milliseconds of the O3 Air Unit. Now you can obtain a most transmission distance of 15km with the O4 Air Unit Professional and have a 1080p 100fps dwell view in your goggles.
The digital camera has been drastically improved, permitting you to shoot 4K 120fps from its 1/1.3-inch CMOS sensor. Just like the O3 Air Unit, the digital camera retains its most subject of view of 155°, which is ultra-wide, however that’s most likely the one factor that continues to be precisely the identical because the O3 Air Unit.
Trying on the DVR of the O4 Air Unit Professional, you will notice the sign stays rock stable at 60 megabits per second for more often than not. After all, it nonetheless drops while you go behind a giant line of timber or behind stable rocks or concrete, identical to some other sign would, however for normal flying, you’ll discover a giant increase within the sign energy.
Further Options
The digital camera is modular, which means you might have an interchangeable digital camera lens in case you break it. You may change simply that half utilizing the 2 screws on the highest and backside. For these having the V2, you’ll be glad to listen to that the V2 Filters work completely nice with this digital camera.
The O4 Air Unit Professional comes with 4GB of built-in storage, which is unusually low and undoubtedly not sufficient for any sort of video longer than 2-3 minutes. Nonetheless, you may develop your storage by utilizing a microSD card as much as 512GB.
Compatibility
The O4 Air Unit Professional is suitable with goggles from the Goggles 2 upwards, together with the Goggles Integra, Goggles 3, and Goggles N3. It additionally works with the DJI FPV Distant Controller 2 or 3 straight out of the field. Customized distant controllers from RadioMaster, Jumper, TBS, or different manufacturers are additionally supported with receivers resembling ELRS, Crossfire, and so forth.
Conclusion
The precise costs of the DJI O4 Air Unit shall be linked beneath within the description. If you wish to assist my channel whereas doing all of your purchasing for the brand new O4 Air Unit, you’ll be very a lot welcome, and I need to thanks upfront.
That is Mike from Drone Supremacy. Thanks a lot for watching, thanks in your assist. By no means cease flying, and I’ll catch you within the subsequent one. Ciao!
