Flying in to supplant 2023’s Air 3 as DJI’s mid-range camera drone flagship, the Air 3S is aimed at aerial imaging enthusiasts looking for a bit more video and photo power than the ultra-lightweight DJI Mini series can provide, but unwilling to spend big money on one of DJI’s top-of-the-line Mavic drones.
