That side by side with the session 5 😮

right! at first i was thinking "why did vanny show the same video side by side" 😳
One of the best O3 Reviews! Fantastic job, Alex!
Thank you Vanny for this review. I trust your opinion😊 enough that I just placed an order for your frame and the upgrade. I ordered the 03 system through DJI 2 days ago with a ship date of 11/25/22. Even though I have a bunch of frames to choose from that I have not built yet, none of them would fit this camera. Thank you for solving that problem. I appreciate that. Oh, I went back to DJI’s website yesterday to order another 03 setup and saw that the ship date from them at that time was 1/3/23. I didn’t place the order and figured I would just wait. I also assumed that any pre-orders would be at least 2 batches away. Thanks again, great job, and I wish the best for you going forward and a DRL win😊.
That built-in image stabilization with minimal latency feed is quite the tech. Love seeing the DJI FPV’s recording feature being passed on to the air units.
Thanks Alex , this is the kind of review I personally needed.
Great review! Thank you for your time and honesty.
Thanks a lot for you return dude 🖤
Awesome flight right there, I'd have to agree with the outstanding image quality. It's overall impressive so far.
A honest review!! Very much appreciated Alex. Think for me I'm absolutely ok with my analog system and just would really rather put my money towards a possible session 6 someday!😉😁💯
Great informative video! Thinking about running this on a cinematic build and vista on my freestyle builds.
I appreciate the honest review!
Great review. For me my eye are not getting better so having a clear vision is for sure a big factor.
Thank YOU for sharing your feels buddy, stay blessed :]
Love the cinematic lighting
One of the best reviews 👌 I do believe the screws in the 03 unit are removable so you could add longer threaded screws and have 25X25 mm mounting option.

After reading the specs in user manual, make sure it's M1.6 not M2. MurdersFPV managed to do that like what you said. If frame doesn't have 25x25 mount pattern, just need to cleverly create a 25x25 mount. I'm tempted to create one for VannyStyle and see how it comes out. Still waiting to get one O3 Air Unit. It's sold out still. 😩
Sweeet Alex . 🔥I’ll definitely be getting it 👊🏻
Nice review. Thanks mate.
Great review! I think this would work great with frames with camera cages like the MoonGoat.
Pretty much the only thing stopping me from buying this system is the price as I would need the air units and googles. But definitely heads and shoulders above the rest. Plus this is actually the quality level I've been waiting for to move from analogue. I'd love to see some of your signature freestyle flights with the onboard video recorded and edited, would be mint! Keep up the good work and great review by the way 👍

same here, the only way for me to get this is saving at least for 6 months haha! but i'm still in love with my air unit and v1 goggles actually, if you do things right, old tech can still do impressive things.
Great review Alex. I appreciate your honesty and I look forward to picking this up myself. The session 5 comparison is unreal and I’ll likely sacrifice a few of the “nice to haves” for a lighter weight, better flying and just all around easier management solution from the onboard recording. Cheers buddy 🍻
Thanks for the insight legend 🤙🏻🔥

Great review and feedback.
Awesome Dude! Thank you Bro!
Awesome review.i teach a bunch of kids introuble fpv and would love dji so the kids can see the scrubs properly and stop breaking kwads lol.
Brother... I love the yellow t-shirt 💛 great video.
Finally smaller goggles! I'm ok tho, happy with the snail setup I have. And why spend that much if I am happy where I am at! Honestly if I was designing a frame for something like this I would do a drl racer 4 thing in the front. Have the camera encased in a clear plastic to protect it.
Great vid for us freestyle guys
Amazing!😮
You can use longer 2mm screws for the 25 x 25 air unit,just simply take out the existing ones and replace

Well considering all the reviews are from people that were given it early for testing and probably paid, I'll take that with a grain of salt.
Literally getting to the point where we don’t need the extra weight of additional camera I love where we are headed
Good review
Excellent thank you.
Hi Alex, thanks for the review. I am preparing myself for my first quad build and I am definitivy going for your Vannystyle frame && O3 Air unit. It would be great If I dont have to buy old frame version + O3 conversion. There is one more thing, since I want to build it myself I can buy "Vannystyle 5" Frame & Motor Bundle" but I will still be missing other parts....Do you have some "ultimate list" or at least "recommended list" of parts for best freestyle build with Vannystyle frame? Thanks.
Great video man and good to see the quick reaction to the new system so the frame can accommodate it 👏
I heard of you have 25mm x 25mm mounting holes, you can replace the m2 screws in the bottom of the 03 airunit with longer m2s so you can mount with screws. Of course they are m2 so maybe a couple zip ties also just in case lol. Great video

The thing is like 30grams 4 m2 threads are MORE then capable enough to support it what are you thinking lmao
Im getting ready to buy everything to make/build this drone, was wondering if you have any video with the O3 upgrade kit?
Vanover, your shirt is awesome! I somehow knew you were walking the "narrow road that leads to life"!
I'd design a gopro style sleeve to fit over the camera, and use a frame that supports mini camera's. Sliding it forward, and still maintaining protection. Apex frame, maybe. Botgrinder frame, definitely.
Vanny...you are one of my favs in all fields... Your rates even fit me. Are your cinematic rates any different?

They are the same :)
Got 2 on the way love the video quality of my Avata I’ll be switching all my 5” to this unit 😅
Nice Review Alex. I have two New Vannystyle Frames as my Main Quads now, would be great to get the O3 Kit in the EU Store soon. Also are there some Mounts for Antenna and Camera comming on Thingiverse?
You know what? I did enjoy this video and damn it I'm gonna like it.
Good review. Hopefully someone designs some sort of cradle to allow a hard mount onto a baseplate. Maybe something to get it up off the baseplate to allow for more cooling(if needed). I'm sure one of the ancillary manufacturer has plans to release a "naked" version of the air unit, and if not, someone should design a retrofit case. Re the camera protection, probably something like the old LayerLens from FPV Manuals(GetFPV)? Def something to think about. I'm interested in the hard cutoff on range with this unit. Does anyone know if the range is the same as the previous?
That Nurk clip sold me.
Amigo , o betaflight não reconhece o controle 2 da DJI , configuração e bind ok na Unit o3 Sabe me dizer uma provável solução ?
“Something better than a session 5” *Vanny foreshadowing the session 6*
Are you able to run this on the Kiss setup? Thx in advance.
will v2 goggles give the video feed out USB to phone / fly app or is that only with the latest Goggles 2 ?
Another great video!!! Keep going captain!!
I’ll be buying it as soon as they drop it on a 4” LR
Not upgrading I just upgraded I understand technology is on the up and up but damn every 6 months it's something different you need rotor riot money for that sheet lmao love you captain u da best 👌 👍
How about zip tying the vtx with double sided tape below.?
hey do you have a link for the cam mount for the o3 i mean for the tpu parts you use?
Which controllers will bind with this new air unit?
Johnny fpv qavs seems to fit it perfectly
Already ordered! But my current setup is analog only on HDO v1s 🤣. Can't wait to join the digital age! I gotta get new frames now but hey it'll be worth.
can we get a update on the new 03 frame? any new footage?
Great info. I think Bardwell said the screws can be removed and replaced then you have a 25 x 25 mounting pattern. If that’s true it’s still a problem for a lot of frames. Another guys said the SD Card and the on board storage can be accessed via USB C without powering up the drone.

honestly I tried the avata which is basically the same thing and I was not so blown away of the video quality in the goggles and also grading the footage was not the best experience compared to hero 11. The goggles did not fit my face and the whole time I felt so much pressure on my nose I was talking in a higher pitch because of it, I thought my face was just weird but all my friends had the same experience. I will just stay with my caddx vistas and V2 goggles for a long time for sure. Nice and honest review though

It's also a bit expensive. I don't need shitty on-board video recording. Let's make a cheaper lite version without onboard video and I am happy. The transmission quality is far superior, but that's expected when the TX has 2W power output and takes the whole 5.8GHz band 😂

Good video mate, I subscribe to your channel ☺️👍
Vanny, I'm nearly grabbing them, only trouble for myself is the latency? In all honesty did you feel anything? Did you have any near misses? It's my only concern following using fatshark HDO? Please advise 🙏
The only video I need to see. In half the time you covered all the basics and honestly just hearing it come from a pilot as picky as you (in the best way possible) means I can trust you actually had a good experience with the system.
id buy one, if it released anywhere near past summertime. ill wait til about april-may next year
Will your revised frame/camera plate be available for sale on rotor riot store?
Please read the manual. They explain how to attach the o3. M1.6 25.5mm appart. Time to call your frame designer again 😅
Would a small zip tie work instead of a bit of electrical tape
You can protect with a ND filter, the DJI avata ND filters are compatibil with this camera.
So at them moment I'm pretty happy with my caddax vista iflight evoque 👍
Nice and honest. Think the session 5 comparison was a bit harsh lol it’s a 5-6 year old camera.
are the goggles only compatible with the DJI FPV controller 2? I see you are using a different controller, was it hard to setup ?
Yo! *ziptie your vtx on, I've been doing it since the air unit came out and it works great. also, thanks for your review dude!
Doess anyone know which 3d antenna mount Vanover is using on this build.
Love the Frame I just wish it would ship with the O3 upgrade so we didn't have to buy it extra
I'll definitely give the new system a go. I'm sold on ditching the Gopro.

Any idea of the o3 unit works with fpv planes with alierons, elevator, rudder?
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 I smashed the camera, but I need to fly today. Can I slap a Nebula Pro that I have on another drone or a spare this air unit?
Does the OSD work with the Kiss Ultra? Or Kiss on the Fettech G4? I have the O3 shipping, and would like to use it with Kiss.
How do I get that antenna my my friend?
I'm still in research mode on O3 Air Unit......my concern is latency while doing onboard recording......need some fancy youtubers to do some definitive testing ............currently sticking with Vistas however, i m willing to change to the 03 if latency ends up being not a problem (Flight style for me = fast, low and proxi). Cheers
I am sure there is a way to design curved standoffs for the front for this camera which would fit every existing frame.
How does the video quality measure up to the Session 6?
lol the session5 footage is looking NOT that bad ^^ CMON DUDE
def switching, but the size of the camera has me at a standstill for now. It wont fit anything I fly atm.
DJI is King 💪👽🤟
I bought the dji fpv googles v2 last night
Thanks Alex, enjoyed the review. Just wish the first FPV radio gets compatible - such a clean system if it did - not a fan of the gamepad controller and no AG01's for it either - yell in DJI ear please
How about instead of redesign of button plate and top plate, u make a set of custom front stand offs, that have half moon section milled out on them to allow. The lens to move
Sensei Vannover
can you pair the O3 Air Unit with any radio?
Rotor riot needs to get you in one of them maned drones jetson one lol and have you to a course
Wait, I thought it has 25x25 mounts by removing the bottom screws and adding longer ones.
captain squashed or true x? big difference?
