DJI Dron Air 3S (DJI RC-N3)
A dual-camera drone designed for travel photography, DJI Air 3S integrates a suite of advanced technologies. Featuring a 1-inch-CMOS primary camera and a 70mm medium tele camera, each with up to 14 stops of dynamic range, [1] Air 3S captures landscapes, portraits, and more in stunning detail. Both cameras support the new Free panorama feature, which allows flexible shooting-range selections. Additional new highlights include nightscape obstacle sensing [2] and next-gen Smart RTH for enhanced safety during nighttime photography. In each and every way, DJI Air 3S is designed to maximize every aerial moment.
Achieving another first for their family of camera drones, the DJI Air 3S Drone features a forward-facing LiDAR sensor that elevates the nighttime capabilities of the versatile Air 3S. The sensor is integrated into both the omnidirectional APAS avoidance system and return-to-home function. This gives pilots an Air 3 that can fly, film, and come home more safely during the night. Similar to the Air 3, the camera system of the Air 3S offers creators a dual-camera system - a 24mm wide-angle and a 70mm telephoto, ideal for landscapes and portraits. For more dynamic and creative content creation, 2.7K vertical shooting is available on both cameras, as well as a host of other modes, such as subject tracking, automated flight paths, and complex maneuvers. As with the Air 3, the Air 3S can be taken almost anywhere, thanks to its compact and folding design.
RC-N3 Remote Controller
This standard version of the DJI Air 3S includes the RC-N3 remote controller and intelligent flight battery, letting you take to the skies without additional purchase. All you need is a compatible smartphone to add to the RC-N3. It will accepts any phone up to 7.1" in length, 3.4" in width, and 0.4" thick. Pilot for up to 3.5 hours on a full charge, or up to 1.5 hours if you choose to pilot while charging your phone from the RC-N3's built-in battery.
Professional Quality
The dual camera system of the Air 3S consists of a 1" CMOS 24mm 50MP wide-angle camera, and a 1/1.3" CMOS 70mm 48MP medium telephoto camera. Together they can capture clear and expansive landscapes, or cinematic portraits and vehicle shots. Both cameras share the same video recording capabilities to keep your content consistent, with support for 4K60 HDR using 14 stops of dynamic range for high-contrast scenes, and 4K120 in Slow Motion mode to capture fast-paced action. In addition to the standard color mode, you can choose 10-bit D-Log M with H.265 encoding and HLG, which allow for increased brightness and more detail in low-light scenes.

The camera system is supported by a wide variety of MasterShots and QuickShots options that give you the ability to perform pre-programmed flight paths and complex, professional maneuvers with a tap. This is in addition to the following features that extend the abilities of the Air 3S and the amazing results it can achieve.
- 2.7K Vertical Shooting: Each camera can shoot footage in a portrait orientation at 2.7K resolution, making it easy to quickly deliver pre-formatted clips to your favorite social media platforms.
- Free Panorama: Usable with each camera, pilots manually select a subject or area as multiple images are taken and stitched together into a single expansive shot.
- Waypoint Flight: Meet your specific shooting needs by having the Air 3S follow your custom pre-set flight paths and camera movements.
- Cruise Control: Quickly lock the control stick inputs so you can apply more focus onto camera adjustments.
- ActiveTrack 360°: This mode locks onto and follows a subject, analyzing its surroundings, and automatically planning a flight path; while continually making adjustments to keep the subject in frame and in sharp focus.
- Hyperlapse: Create aerial timelapse shots as the drone flies through the air.
- Subject Focusing: This keeps your subject in sharp focus during manual flight, even if it moves off-center, letting you pay more attention to composition and camera positioning.
Vision Assist
Get your bearings as you pilot the Air 3S by using Vision Assist. This feature gives you a front, back, left, right, and downwards view around your drone.
Smart RTH
The Air 3S is capable of intelligently returning to home in adverse conditions. If it's nighttime, the new forward-facing LiDAR sensor is utilized to return while keeping clear of obstacles. If there is no access to GPS, the Air 3S can memorize its flight path in Non-GPS RTH mode and return to its takeoff point safely.
Storage and Off-State QuickTransfer
With 42GB of built-in storage, you can take to the air and capture a considerable amount of footage without the need of an optional memory card. When you need to expand your storage, the Air 3S accepts optional V30/U3/A2 microSD cards up to 512 GB in size. When retrieving your data, the Off-State QuickTransfer feature lets you do that with the drone powered off. Simply attach a USB cable to the Air 3S to copy footage to a mobile device or PC.
