Details

Built for amphibious FPV, the HULK III Mini is rated IP67 for wet-weather flying and water takeoffs.

IP67 waterproof protection helps keep electronics safer when flying in rain, splashes, and wet environments.

The O4 Pro option focuses on high-quality FPV with 1080p/100fps transmission and 4K/120fps recording support.

6S power and seawater-series motors are designed for strong thrust and fast, confident outdoor flights.

A layered protection design combines sealed electronics with a protective shell, carbon fiber frame, and guard ring.

An action-camera-style FPV module can be moved between builds to simplify upgrades and maintenance.

GPS-assisted rescue functions add another recovery option when control or video signal drops.

Choose top or bottom battery mounting to match your setup—standard flight or water mode with floats.

Version differences—camera/VTX, range, and included electronics—are summarized in the spec table.

Each version includes the core quad plus accessory kit components listed here; contents vary by configuration.
