The new Oasisfly25 O4 has made quite the entrance, offering a compact alternative to its three-inch sibling while promising to deliver the same performance. At first glance, it may look like a mini-me version, but there are key differences in frame dimensions and prop sizes that could influence your flying experience. While the motor and flight stacks are unchanged, it’s worth pondering if smaller really means just as thrilling.
When it comes to tackling the great British weather, the O4 impresses. During testing, it withstood gusts of up to 17 mph without so much as a wobble. Flight times vary depending on your battery choice: a cheeky 650mAh will give you around five and a half minutes, whereas an 850mAh might stretch it to almost eight. Not bad for a pint-sized quad, though keep in mind, if you’re after epic endurance, the three-inch might still hold the crown.
Of course, crashes are part and parcel of the hobby, and our tests confirmed this—fear not, the O4 emerged intact following a rather dramatic mishap. Its design stands strong where durability matters most, although the battery connections could do with a little more thought; a zip tie wouldn’t go amiss to prevent potential disconnections. Remember, a small tweak could spare you from hefty repair bills in the long run.
In conclusion, the Oasisfly25 O4 is a nifty little number for those seeking agility in tighter spaces without sacrificing performance. However, if extended airtime is your main concern, you might want to stick with the three-inch model. As they say, horses for courses—or quads for flights, in this case.
