I'm sorry to say that it can't be turned off, because the heat would raise the temperature too much.

How about turning it off when shooting with the micro SD card only?

Then I can shoot sound and still have the benefits of micro 4/3 camera etc.

OR lowering data rates or using different codecs to reduce heat produced in the write process?

Its an awesome product but the fan is devastating.  I may have to return it as the fan makes it unusable for a lot of what I do.

I was just on chat with Robert at DJI and he claimed there was a function in the DJIGo app that you can use to turn off the fan.  Unfortunately my battery is dead at the moment sine we just got the Oslo and more batteries don't arrive until tomorrow, but I'll check it out and let you know.  Seems reasonable that if you're only shooting on the SD card the fan isn't necessary.
