DJI Air 3S

An enthusiast-tier 724g drone with dual wide and tele cameras, the Air 3S is positioned as the mid-step between the Mini and Mavic lines, offering more framing flexibility and stronger wind handling than the lightest class. It's for flyers who want a versatile two-camera system. At 724g it crosses out of the sub-250g bracket, so anyone prioritizing the lighter regulatory path should consider a Mini instead.
