360° Drone Test – Custom Insta360 X4 Rig (Top vs Underneath Mount) | DJI Mavic 3 Flight Over River Nith
New: AI passthrough!
This amazing Deo feature uses the power of AI to turn every VR scene into AR passthrough! Now you can take characters out of VR and have them right there with you - as if they were in the same room.
Notice: AI Passthrough is presently in beta mode, and as such, users may encounter occasional service imperfections. The feature is currently exclusive to the DeoVR app, but it will soon be accessible on both browsers and mobile devices. Your feedback is highly encouraged and appreciated.
Recommended headsets:
Meta Quest 3, and Quest Pro with stereoscopic color passthrough, Pico 4 (monoscopic color passthrough).
Compatible headsets:
Quest 2, Valve Index (monoscopic black and white passthrough).
Passthrough is not compatible yet for Oculus Link cable.

This video captures both views in a single flight over The Loops of the River Nith in southern Scotland.
From wide, cinematic sweeps to low-level passes along the riverbank, the goal was to test image stability, horizon control, and immersion from both mounting styles.
