Product Description

The Lumenier QAV-S 2 5" 6S DJI O3 is the refined version of the legendary freestyle frame that served as the foundation for the Joshua Bardwell DIY kit we discussed earlier. This specific RTF (Ready-To-Fly) version is tuned for the DJI O3 Air Unit, combining high-end components with a frame design that prioritizes ease of maintenance and flight performance.

QAV-S 2 Frame Innovation: The V2 frame features a unique "split-bottom" plate design. This allows you to replace a broken arm by removing only one screw without disturbing your flight stack—a massive time-saver for field repairs.
Optimized for DJI O3: The frame is designed with a specific camera cage that protects the O3 lens and provides the necessary clearance for a 155° ultra-wide field of view. It also acts as a structural heat sink for the Air Unit.
Lumenier ZIP2 Power: This 6S version is equipped with ZIP2 2207 motors, which are known for their extreme durability and smooth power delivery. They provide the "punch" needed for aggressive recoveries while remaining efficient during cinematic cruising.
Cinematic Rigidity: The "locked-in" feel of the QAV-S 2 is achieved through high-quality carbon fiber and precision machining. This minimizes resonance, ensuring that the O3’s RockSteady or post-processed Gyroflow footage is as smooth as possible.

Technical Specifications:

Frame: Lumenier QAV-S 2 (5-inch)
Video System: DJI O3 Air Unit (Digital HD)
Motors: Lumenier ZIP2 2207 1750KV / 1950KV (6S Optimized)
FC/ESC: LUX G2 F7 Flight Controller + 50A BLHeli_32 ESC
Propellers: Lumenier Gate Heist / HQProp 5x4x3
Input Voltage: 6S LiPo (1100mAh - 1500mAh)
Receiver: ELRS 2.4G / TBS Crossfire (Selectable)
Weight: ~395g (without battery)

The Pilot's Reality Check:

Maintenance Advantage: The "split-plate" design is the biggest selling point for pilots who crash often. You can swap an arm in under 2 minutes, which is faster than almost any other freestyle frame in this class.
The 6S Learning Curve: This is a high-power machine. If you are coming from 4S or a smaller cinewhoop, ensure you set a "throttle limit" in Betaflight for your first few flights to get used to the explosive vertical thrust.

🤔 Frequently Asked Questions

What is the benefit of the X-Lock Arm system?
The V2 frame introduces a lateral locking mechanism that creates a "rock-solid" connection between the arms and the body. It mechanically isolates the arm vibrations from the flight controller stack and allows you to fold or swap an arm by removing just one screw, making field repairs exceptionally fast.
How does it handle the DJI O3's vibrations?
The frame includes specialized aluminum FPV camera side plates and custom silicone damping mounts specifically tuned for the O3 camera. This "asjalik" design prevents high-frequency motor noise from reaching the sensor, which is critical for getting clean gyro data for stabilization in Gyroflow or ReelSteady.
Is the frame "DeadCat" or "True X"?
It uses a Wide-X configuration. While it is not a DeadCat design, the geometry is optimized so that propellers are largely kept out of the HD view at typical cinematic camera angles, providing a balanced flight feel that many pilots prefer over the asymmetrical handling of a DeadCat.
Why 2307 motors instead of the standard 2207?
The Lumenier 2307 JohnnyFPV V3 motors have a larger stator, which provides more torque. This is an "asjalik" choice for cinematic flying, as it gives the drone more "authority" to pull out of high-speed dives and carry the extra weight of a GoPro without feeling sluggish.
Can I use the DJI Remote Controller 2?
Yes. Since the DJI O3 Air Unit has a built-in link, you can fly this drone using the DJI FPV Remote Controller 2 without installing an extra receiver. However, most professional pilots still opt to install a dedicated ELRS or Crossfire receiver for better long-range reliability.
