It was powered by the same Armstrong Siddeley Lynx IVc which could deliver up to 180hp of power.
- Brazil: The Brazilian Navy bought some 504O to equip some floatplane squadron. Anyway further information is unknown so the drawing should be considered as speculative
- Chile: The Chilean Navy also had some 504O in service, most probably to replace the previous outdated 504L floatplanes. Unfortunately any graphical info seems impossible to find and the drawing should be taken as speculative.
- Greece: The Greek Navy bought some of them in 1925 together with some 504N and they even produced some of their own in the Kratiko Ergostasion Aeroplanon (State Aircraft Factory) in 1935 before switching to the more advanced Avro 621 Tutor. The 504O served, just like the 504N until 1936.
- Japan: The Imperial Japan bought some 504O most probably to replace the outdated 504L. However as we couldn't find precise information, the drawing should be taken as speculative.
