DJI Air 3 review

DJI Air 3 in flight

DJI's consumer line has a lot of choices in the ultralight category – drones at around 250g – and then two distinct airframes above that before things start getting car-like in their costing. They are the Air 3 (now) and the the Mavic 3. These two drones eschew the lowest weight limit in favor of the advantages a heftier aircraft can offer, not least sturdier performance against wind but also enough power to lift a better camera.

Given that the DJI Air 2S competed as much with the Mavic 3 as any other drone, DJI offered surprisingly little compromise on that front. The 20 megapixel 1-inch CMOS sensor captured video at up to 5.4K (at 30fps). That's not too bad at all.
