WHICH VERSION IS RIGHT FOR YOU?
Key differences:
The X501 O4 Pro drone features the advanced DJI O4 Pro digital system, delivering crisp 4K/120fps video with ultra-low latency. It supports 10-bit D-Log M color and a 155° ultra-wide FOV for stunning detail. With up to 27 minutes of flight time, it’s available in four receiver options: O4 Pro, ELRS 915MHz, ELRS 2.4GHz, and TBS 915MHz.
The X501 Analog fpv features a high-power 1.6W VTX with a 1/2-inch 1200TVL CMOS camera, a 7cm 5.8GHz antenna and a built-in M10 GPS. It is the lightest in the lineup, offering the most aggressive power-to-weight ratio for technical freestyle. The drone comes in three receiver options: ELRS 915Mhz, ELRS 2.4Ghz, and TBS 915Mhz.
The X501 PNP version is built for pilots who want full customization. With the VTX, camera, antenna, receiver, and GPS removed, it offers a clean, versatile platform. Its ultra-lightweight, optimized frame is designed for high-speed agility and precise maneuvers.

FAQ
Which version of the 5" drone should I buy?
It depends on your goggles and your filming goals:
O4 PRO Edition (Digital): The ultimate cinematic beast. It delivers a crystal-clear HD feed and records 4K/120fps internally. Requires compatible digital goggles.
Analog Edition: Built for hardcore freestyle and racing. It offers the lowest latency (near zero) and is the most budget-friendly. If you’re practicing high-risk tricks where "crashing is part of the game," this is the most cost-effective choice.
PNP Version (No Receiver and VTX): For pro pilots who already have their own preferred radio system (like TBS Crossfire or ELRS 2.4G) and video transmitters. It needs the VTX (Digital or Analog) and requires you to install your own receiver.
What is the recommended battery for this 5" frame?
For the best power-to-weight ratio, we recommend: 6S 1500mAh - 4500mAh LiPo.
6S 1500mAh: If you are chasing maximum agility for racing.
6S 4500mAh+: If you are cruising or carrying a full-sized GoPro.
Does this drone support 4S batteries?
While it can fly on 4S, this motor/ESC combo is optimized for 6S. Using 4S will result in significantly less "punch" and might feel sluggish for a 5-inch freestyle rig.
Does the O4 PRO version include "GyroFlow" support?
Yes. The O4 PRO version records essential gyro data. You can put your footage through GyroFlow in post-production to get that buttery-smooth, professional cinematic look.
Can the 5" frame carry a full-sized GoPro?
Yes! Unlike the 2.5" series, this 5" frame is a workhorse. It comes with a pre-installedTPU GoPro mount.Whether you choose the O4 PRO or Analog version, the frame is rigid enough to carry a full-sized Action Camera without compromising flight stability.
How "crash-proof" is the frame?
It’s built for impact. We used 7mm-thick high-strength carbon fiber for the arms—far beefier than the industry standard. The True-X configuration ensures a balanced flight feel, while the CNC aluminum nose and side plates act as a rugged roll cage for your electronics. Plus, the quick-release side panels make internal maintenance fast and simple. Whether you're a beginner or a pro, this frame is designed to spend more time in the air and less time on the bench.
