The MARK5 DC HD O3 takes the legendary durability of the Mark5 and reshapes it into a DeadCat geometry. This configuration pushes the front arms backward, ensuring that your propellers are completely invisible in your 4K/60fps video feed. Built with 7075-T6 aluminum alloy camera plates and the latest SPAN F722-BT-HD stack, it offers a "pro-tuned" flight experience that excels at both aggressive freestyle and smooth, cinematic storytelling.

Product Description

The GEPRC MARK5 DC HD O3 is the "DeadCat" (DC) variation of the celebrated Mark5 freestyle series. While the standard Mark5 is a dedicated freestyle machine, the DC version is specifically optimized for high-quality cinematic recording using the DJI O3 Air Unit's internal 4K capabilities.

Prop-Free Cinematic View: The "DC" (DeadCat) frame is the standout feature. By moving the front motors away from the camera's field of view, you get a clean, unobstructed 155° wide-angle shot directly from the DJI O3 Air Unit, eliminating the need for a GoPro in many scenarios.
Aluminum Alloy Lens Protection: The camera is encased in 7075-T6 aircraft-grade aluminum side plates. These provide significantly better protection against head-on impacts than standard carbon fiber and include integrated cooling for the O3 system.
Bluetooth Connectivity: The SPAN F722-BT-HD V2 flight controller features a built-in Bluetooth chip. This allows you to tune your PIDs and adjust Betaflight settings wirelessly via the SpeedyBee app on your phone—no cables required at the field.
Vibration-Damped Mounts: GEPRC includes a specialized TPU shock-absorption system for the O3 Air Unit. This prevents high-frequency motor noise from interfering with the O3’s internal gyro, ensuring your "RockSteady" or "Gyroflow" stabilization is buttery smooth.
Independent Capacitor & Buzzer: The frame design includes dedicated internal cabins for the power capacitor and the buzzer. This keeps the build organized and protects these sensitive components from being ejected or damaged in a crash.

Recommended Battery: 6S 1050mAh-1550mAh / 4S 1300mAh-1800mAh

The Pilot's Reality Check:

DC vs. X Geometry: Because the frame is not symmetrical, the "DC" version has a slightly different rotational feel compared to the standard "Squashed X" Mark5. It is marginally less "robotic" in its flips but significantly better for anyone filming HD footage without a GoPro.
Heavyweight Champ: At over 400g dry, this is a substantial 5-inch drone. It carries a lot of momentum, which is great for "flow" freestyle, but requires high-quality high-C-rate batteries to handle the amp draw.

🤔 Frequently Asked Questions

Why choose the Deadcat (DC) version over the Squashed X?
The DC frame geometry offsets the front arms outward and backward. This ensures that the propellers are completely out of the wide $155^\circ$ FOV of the O3 camera. While a Squashed X is slightly better for pure balanced freestyle physics, the DC version is the superior choice for high-quality "no-prop-in-view" cinematic shots.
How does the "Shock Absorption" system work?
The MARK5 features a specialized camera side plate made of 7075-T6 aluminum alloy with TPU vibration-damping mounts. This mechanically isolates the O3 camera from the high-frequency vibrations of the motors, which is essential because the O3 sensor is famously sensitive to "jello" effects.
Does it support mobile tuning?
Yes. It uses the SPAN F722-BT-HD V2 (or later TAKER) stack, which has built-in Bluetooth. This allows you to connect the drone to the SpeedyBee App on your phone to change PIDs, rates, or motor settings at the field without a laptop.
What is the "Independent Cabin" design?
GEPRC designed a dedicated space for the capacitor and buzzer separate from the main flight stack. This keeps the internal wiring much cleaner and prevents the capacitor from vibrating against the flight controller or ESC during aggressive maneuvers.
Which battery and receiver should I choose?
- 6S Version: Uses $1960$KV motors. Recommended battery is a $1050$mAh – $1550$mAh 6S LiPo. - 4S Version: Uses $2450$KV motors. Recommended battery is a $1300$mAh – $1800$mAh 4S LiPo. - Receiver: Most users choose ELRS 2.4G for the best range and low latency, but it is also available with TBS Crossfire or as a PNP version (using the DJI Remote Controller 2).
