DJI’s pushing the envelope with some cutting-edge tech:

DroneXL’s Take

The DJI Air 3S is shaping up to be a game-changer in the drone industry. Its advanced features and improved imaging capabilities could set a new standard for consumer-grade drones.

We’ve seen a trend towards more powerful, user-friendly drones, and the Air 3S seems to be following suit. The inclusion of the DJI RC 2 controller with a built-in screen is a particularly nice touch, making it easier for pilots to keep eyes on their drone while monitoring flight data.

The rumored DJI RC Track control method, if true, could revolutionize how we interact with our drones. Voice-controlled takeoff, tracking, and landing? That’s some serious sci-fi stuff coming to life.

As always, we’ll be keeping a close eye on the official announcement. In the meantime, what do you think about these leaks? Are you excited about the DJI Air 3S? Share your thoughts in the comments below!
