Overview
Introducing a new milestone in their camera drone lineup, the DJI Air 3S Drone is equipped with a forward-facing LiDAR sensor that significantly enhances its performance in low-light conditions. This sensor is integrated with the omnidirectional APAS obstacle avoidance system and the return-to-home feature, allowing the Air 3S to fly, capture footage, and return safely even at night. Like the Air 3, the Air 3S features a dual-camera setup—comprising a 24mm wide-angle lens and a 70mm telephoto lens—perfect for shooting landscapes and portraits. For added versatility, both cameras offer 2.7K vertical shooting and various creative modes, including subject tracking, automated flight paths, and complex maneuvers. With its compact, foldable design, the Air 3S is ready for virtually any adventure.
RC-N3 Remote Controller
The standard DJI Air 3S package comes complete with the RC-N3 remote controller and an intelligent flight battery, so you’re ready to take flight without needing any extra purchases. Simply add a compatible smartphone to the RC-N3, which supports devices up to 7.1″ in length, 3.4″ in width, and 0.4″ in thickness. With a full charge, you can fly for up to 3.5 hours, or if you choose to charge your phone using the RC-N3’s built-in battery, you can extend flight time to 1.5 hours.
Storage and Off-State QuickTransfer
Equipped with 42GB of built-in storage, the Air 3S allows you to capture a significant amount of footage without the need for an additional memory card. However, if you require more space, it supports optional V30/U3/A2 microSD cards with capacities of up to 512GB. For easy data transfer, the Off-State QuickTransfer feature lets you retrieve files even when the drone is powered off. Just connect a USB cable to the Air 3S, and you can quickly copy your footage to a mobile device or PC.
