  • If you have a bind and fly FPV quadcopter with a DJI O3 Air Unit, this video will show you what you need to get it set up for flight. In this video I'm setting up the GEPRC Mark 5 quadcopter, but this video is for any FPV quad that is BNF (bind and fly) and uses a DJI O3 Air unit for video transmission and recording. In this video we take you through the steps you need to get your quad ready to fly!

    I'm just learning but watching another video the presenter said you don't need to have the drone turned on to access the 03 air unit. It's powered thru the data cable.
    Solves the overheating problem.
    I tried it. It works.

    Whats the deal if your goggles and controller are already bound to another drone please? Be it DJI or a custom one? Easy to swap between them?

    • @readysetdrone
      @readysetdrone  Месяц назад +1

      We haven't explored the RC3 yet, but (assuming you've connected it to a drone in betaflight) you can always set the aux to auto in Betaflight, and flip a switch or press a button and see what it automatically selects. Hopefully that makes sense.

    • @readysetdrone
      @readysetdrone  8 месяцев назад

      Hmmm...that is weird. I wonder if it's the throttle rate setting? Question - when you arm the quad and move the stick to 10%, does it spin slowly (around 10%) and then jump to 100% as you push the stick beyond 20% up? Do all 4 start spinning really fast? What kind of quad is it?

    Is there an option in betaflight to map the "start recording" button on the controller 2 if I have an SD card in the drone.
    Or do I just somehow start the recording from the goggles menu before/in flight ?

    • @readysetdrone
      @readysetdrone  Месяц назад

      I'm not sure about the Betaflight setting, but in the camera section in the goggles, you can set it to auto record when you arm.
      Or, if you have the DJI controller, if you decide to not auto record, you can just press the record button on the RC.

    • @RareGlue
      @RareGlue Месяц назад

      @@readysetdrone Apparently the record button on the controller was already bound to record on the air unit as you said, I didn't have to map it.
      I just took that for granted since everything else pretty much needed to.
      So its all good!

      @@readysetdrone Hi. I have absolutely awful image quality from my O3 air unit on Geprc Mark 5. If it sunny it looks like 720p when it’s slightly darker or sunset it literally looks like 480p. It is like that from the begining. No crashes.
      I come from DJI FPV and footage from the same location, same day, few minutes later from DJI FPV is just insanely better - and O3 was meant to be better than DJI FPV camera that falls off big time in bad weather. This O3 quality on mine is shocking. Obviously all the settings checked multiply times, tried 60fps 4k and 120fps 4k too but same result. No errors, no problems, flies like a charm, not overheating, 6min flies on Tattu 1400 6s, amazing stabilisation everything is perfect - but actual footage is awful. Anyone anything?😞 I beg you.

    • @readysetdrone
      @readysetdrone  7 месяцев назад

      OK -@@NONX01 - I don't have a definite answer, but here are a couple of things to consider / try.
      1. Are you pulling the recordings off the card in the O3 unit or from the Goggles? The recordings on the card are going to be the best 4K footage.
      2. Have you actually pulled the footage into an editing program to see if they are 4K or some other resoution. You say "looks like 480p" but what is it actually?
      3. It seems like you are looking at some kind of proxy files and not the actual footage. Be sure to look on the micro SD card in the O3 unitl and see if you are looking at low res proxy files.
      That's all I can think of ATM.
      Hope that helps!

    Thanks for this video. But somehow, I'm missing something. I just bought an o3 air unit to replace the hdzero vtx. I wish to use the dji controller instead of my radiomaster. I see in your receiver tab that yours is set to Serial RX using SBUS. I did changed mine to the SBUS as well but no luck. My old transmitter was on port 6. I turned off Serial RX of port 6; no luck. I tried to enable Serial rx on the same port I put the DJI air unit; no luck. I have to say that I'm using the new goggle 3 and the controller 3. The controller is binded with the goggle. the google are binded with the air unit properly and I see the video in them.
    Ho yes... when I turn off the controller, I get a message in the goggle that there are interference with the controller. What needs to be changed to replace my radiomaster with the dji controller?

    • @readysetdrone
      @readysetdrone  Месяц назад

      We haven't yet tried to fly an O3 Air Unit quad with the Goggles 3 and controller 3, but the only thing that comes to mind is the physical wiring to the flight controller from the air unit. Do you have the SBUS wire soldered correctly?

    • @guytas
      @guytas Месяц назад

      @readysetdrone ha... when I checked the soldering (which was ok) I saw a little R2 beside the SBUS label. Sounds like the sbus is using uart 2 on my fc. I assumed that the SBUS was using the same port as the air unit. But it's not. I have to move my GPS to another port before I can use it. But thanks to your suggestion to check the soldering. That's how I found that out.

    • @guytas
      @guytas Месяц назад

      Ok I got it to work. Yes, I had to use uart 2, but the main thing was that selecting SBUS doesn't do the trick by itself. I had to reflash the firmware but this time selecting the communication SBUS instead of the cross fire. Then after that everything started to work. I hope this helps others...
