The Meteor75 Pro II PNP at $252.99 suits a pilot who already owns a DJI O4 Air Unit, because it ships with no video transmitter. The Air75 BNF at $247.99 suits a pilot who wants to fly right away, with a C03 camera, 4 batteries, and a 6-port charger. Both are 75mm 1S whoops on ELRS 2.4GHz.
What is the difference between PNP and BNF?
PNP means the quad arrives without a video transmitter, so you add your own DJI O4 Air Unit.
The Meteor75 Pro II PNP listing states no VTX and tells you to add your own DJI O4 Air Unit.
BNF means the quad arrives ready to bind to your radio. The Air75 BNF listing states a C03 camera, 4 batteries, and a 6-port charger in the box.
Which 75mm whoop flies first out of the box?
The Air75 flies first, because it ships with a camera, batteries, and a charger.
You bind the Air75 to an ELRS 2.4GHz radio, charge the 4 batteries, and fly.
The Meteor75 needs a DJI O4 Air Unit fitted first, so it suits a pilot who already owns one.
What does the DJI O4 Air Unit add to the Meteor75?
The DJI O4 Air Unit supplies the digital video link the Meteor75 lacks.
DJI lists the O4 Air Unit as a digital video transmission unit with its own camera.
The Meteor75 Pro II is a 75mm quad, so the unit must fit a 75mm frame and a 1S power system.
How many batteries do you need for a 75mm whoop session?
The Air75 ships with 4 batteries, which covers a short practice session with charging between flights.
The Meteor75 listing does not state batteries in the box, so order 1S batteries with it.
A 6-port charger charges several small packs at once. The Air75 ships with one.
What did we check on the bench?
We checked the Meteor75 listing states 75mm, 1S, ELRS 2.4GHz, and no VTX.
We checked the Air75 listing states 75mm, 1S, ELRS 2.4GHz, a C03 camera, 4 batteries, and a 6-port charger.
We counted 14 images on the Meteor75 listing and 7 on the Air75 listing, and both listings show the quad from several angles.
