  • @gregstewart4692
    @gregstewart4692 Год назад +2

    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😊.

    • @kibbycabbit
      @kibbycabbit Год назад +4

      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. 😩

  • @kingjam6433

    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 👍

    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?

    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.

    I love it! But my fly skills are crap so latency or white balance problems aren’t an issue for me 😅 The camera size is not ideal but Dji took them of the shelf from the Avata I think. Maybe somebody will come out with a smaller sized camera. I’ve put the system in a Titan DC5 HD frame, had to use 3mm standoffs at the front and stil can see a littlebit of the frame in the left and right top corner. But it’s only a very small edge, easy to remove in post. Thanks for the review 👌🏻

    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 😂
