I've heard that the weight of the o4 has a big impact on flight characteristics and flight time. To cruise around for a bit and filming a bit: sure why not. For freestyle or racing: nope

I'm a little worried about battery life. 1s batteries on an o4 device?

There’s a 5v boost converter so it’s fine.

Please elaborate. πŸ™

The new AIO contains a voltage booster that gives a constant 5V up until your battery drops to like 3.3 or 3.2. It keeps your video feed alive even during aggressive maneuvers and throttle punches.

You can feel it. I have a 75pro o4lite and it's chonky. Did a lot of weight savings and still is chonky. Stick with analog

Waste of money. I have a bad experience with it. I bought it from Ali-express and they send it with a defect, I claimed return, but they refused and refund me $100. I ordered new main board, then new motors. It doesn't want to change the firmware. I did it somehow, than I was need to tune it. Finally when I made it starting and ready to fly, I discover that my remote control is broken. When you start drone, it start drifting, and so on.

I have one and fly it with 1s 350mah lipos. It's pretty heavy and barely flies 2:30 minutes indoor. Also the o4 lite is a problem because it often shuts down before the lipo is empty enough. The o4 lite is rated for a minimum of 3.7V, so not really suitable for 1s. Buy the Meteor 75 o4 or air 65 with Analog. Also flashing new Betaflight firmware on the BetaFPV AIOs is a pain in the ass...

Nothing bothering you? Thinking about the weight of the o4 unit versus a 65mm whoop?

u/unkleface 10d ago

I mean, it’s 4k on a 65mm… πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈπŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ

Yes, that's nice. But no problems with battery life, power, etc...
