The FPV community is abuzz with excitement over the imminent arrival of DJI’s O4 Air products. Leaks point to two variations: the DJI O4 Professional (K2) Air Unit and the DJI O4 Lite. DJI is expanding its offerings with a bold move set to disrupt the FPV sector, introducing a range of innovative Air products that deliver enhanced performance, increased efficiency, and competitive pricing. Here’s the improved text: The following is a detailed analysis of the most compelling features related to the DJI O4 Pro and O4 Lite aerial solutions.
The DJI O4 Air items are digital camera and video transmitter modules capable of transmitting high-definition (HD) video while simultaneously capturing high-quality footage that surpasses expectations. They significantly reduce the weight and value of your drone by omitting the motion camera feature and streamlining the setup process. The O4 Professional prioritizes premium choices, while the O4 Lite offers a lightweight, affordable alternative. These items are designed to enhance, produce a higher-quality image, and utilize DJI’s advanced RockSteady 3.0 stabilization technology.
Specs
- 1080p at 60 Mbps is supported on the Goggles 3 and N3, while the Goggles 2 and Integra support 1080p at 50 Mbps.

The O4 Pro’s digital camera is expected to see a substantial upgrade, featuring a 1/1.3-inch sensor and an F2.0 aperture, which will significantly enhance its low-light performance. While the O4 Professional is expected to deliver similar image quality to the Avata 2, it should offer even superior low-light performance due to its larger F1.4 aperture.
Here’s a revised version:
Here’s the first look at Avatar 2:
The O4 Professional excels in FPV dwell feeds, transmitting crisp 1080p video at a robust 60Mbps to both the Goggles 3 and N3, mirroring the capabilities of its Avata 2 counterpart, which achieves the same level of quality on those platforms, while offering 1080p at 50Mbps on the Goggles 2 and Integra.
Specs
- 1S to 3S
- 1080p video at 60Mbps is supported on Google Glass 3 and Netgear N3, while the same resolution is achievable at 50Mbps on Google Glass 2 and Integra devices.
- 4K 30FPS
- Equipped with a built-in 26GB memory, no external SD card slot required.
- Betaflight & iNav
- 1/2″
- RockSteady 3.0
- 30dBm
- 14mm broad
- 30 x 30 x 6mm
- 20×20mm and 25.5×25.5mm

The O4 Lite is specifically designed for the micro FPV market, boasting a remarkably lightweight construction of under 10 grams. Its innovative single-board design makes it a potential game-changer for micro quad builds akin to toothpicks and similar miniaturized platforms. The O4 Lite is expected to deliver on-par image quality, rendering it an attractive option for lightweight configurations.
Our brand-new guarantee ensures that latency is significantly reduced to a mere 15ms for the O4 Professional and 20ms for the O4 Lite, when seamlessly integrated with Goggles 3 and N3. With this innovative technology, FPV racers can anticipate faster reaction times, thereby streamlining their control and minimizing the likelihood of desynchronization during high-stakes maneuvers, potentially revolutionizing the sport. Despite this, Racing Mode is somewhat incompatible with N3; when using Goggles 2 or higher, you may encounter slightly longer latency.
While we eagerly await the formal unveiling, the recently surfacing specifications and features of the DJI O4 Pro and O4 Lite drones give us a glimpse into the promising future of first-person view (FPV) flight capabilities. The O4 series stands out with its exceptional image quality and rapid responsiveness in Racing Mode, complemented by intuitive attachment options and slimmed-down designs that cater to a wide range of FPV enthusiasts.
Stay updated as we continue to monitor and interpret DJI’s official announcements. If rumors prove accurate about the O4 Air Items and N3 Goggles, a significant paradigm shift in DJI’s FPV offerings is imminent, poised to set a new benchmark in the digital FPV industry.
