Frequently asked questions

What DJI Air 3 combos are available? Which one is best for me?⌄

The DJI Air 3 is available in three different versions. These are:

• DJI Air 3 (RC-N2 controller, separate smart device required)

• DJI Air 3 Fly More Combo (RC-N2, RC-N2 controller, separate smart device required)

• DJI Air 3 Fly More Combo (RC 2, smart controller with built-in screen)

The Fly More Combos feature more accessories, such as the Battery Charging Hub and additional flight batteries - working out more cost-effective than purchasing these additional extras separately.

The table below shows the difference between each Air 3 package.

Compared with DJI Air 2S, what are the main upgrades of DJI Air 3?⌄

DJI Air 3 has improved the camera system, video transmission system, vision sensing system, flight time, and intelligent features. Details are as follows:

1. A 1/1.3-inch CMOS 70mm medium tele camera has been added to complement the 1/1.3-inch CMOS 24mm wide-angle camera, delivering consistent image quality* and more dynamic imaging possibilities.

2. The video transmission system has been upgraded to the next-gen O4 HD video transmission system, which not only delivers an FHD video transmission from a max range of 10 km (CE), but also features enhanced anti-interference capabilities, further improving the transmission stability. The remote controller also supports a 1080p/60fps max real-time live feed, with the higher frame rate delivering a smoother viewing experience.

3. Equipped with an omnidirectional vision sensing system, the drone can detect obstacles in all directions. When obstacles are detected, the drone can use APAS 5.0 to perform smoother avoidance movements for a safer overall flight experience.

4. The max hovering time and the max flight time are 42 minutes and 46 minutes respectively, which are 40% and 48% higher than those of DJI Air 2S respectively, allowing you to create with peace of mind.

5. The drone supports Waypoint Flight, Advanced RTH, Cruise Control, QuickTransfer, and other intelligent functions, greatly improving creative efficiency.

* The wide-angle camera and medium tele camera have different apertures.

Compared with the O3 video transmission system, what are the upgrades of the O4 video transmission system?⌄

The O4 video transmission system adopts an all-new hardware solution. The aircraft antenna system is upgraded from four antennas to six, and a new frequency band* has been added.

The communication algorithm has also been upgraded, which not only delivers an FHD video transmission from a max range of 10 km (CE), but also features enhanced anti-interference capabilities, further improving the transmission stability in complex environments like urban settings.

The remote controller also supports a 1080p/60fps max real-time live feed, with the higher frame rate delivering a smoother viewing experience.

*Can be used only in countries and regions where it is allowed by local laws and regulations.

Which remote controllers are compatible with the DJI Air 3?⌄

The following remote controllers are compatible with DJI Air 3:

• DJI RC Pro 2

• DJI RC 2

• DJI RC-N3

• DJI RC-N2

• DJI RC Motion 3

• DJI RC Motion 2

Compared with DJI RC-N2, what are the advantages of DJI RC 2?⌄

When using DJI RC-N2, you need to connect your smartphone and download the DJI Fly app.

DJI RC 2 comes with a 5.5-inch 1080p FHD screen with a brightness of up to 700 nits, delivering a better outdoor viewing experience.

Additionally, with the DJI Fly app pre-installed, you can enjoy immediate use after powering on without connecting to your smartphone, facilitating concentrated and efficient creation.

Compared with the DJI RC-N1 Remote Controller, what are the upgrades of the DJI RC-N2 Remote Controller?⌄

The video transmission solution has been upgraded, and the antenna system is upgraded from 1T2R to 2T2R. With DJI Air 3, the O4 video transmission can be used.

Compared with DJI RC, what are the upgrades of DJI RC 2?⌄

The performance of the processor is improved for smoother operation.

The video transmission solution has been upgraded, and the antenna system has been upgraded from 1T2R to 2T4R. With DJI Air 3, O4 video transmission can be used.

DJI RC 2 features two built-in antennas and two external antennas, and also allows angle adjustments for the external dual antennas to achieve better video transmission effects.

How is ActiveTrack 5.0 different from ActiveTrack 4.0?⌄

ActiveTrack 5.0 can track subjects in eight directions, enabling more creative possibilities.

Embedded with advanced subject recognition technology, ActiveTrack 5.0 uses multiple vision sensors simultaneously to recognise a subject, differentiate it from other objects, and lock the subject in the frame. It allows you to adjust tracking angles smoothly for more natural results.

Thanks to the new environment and subject-sensing algorithms, DJI Air 3 responds earlier to subject movements and environmental information and plans an optimal tracking route to record smooth and stable footage.
