New images of the ‘cancelled’ DJI RC Track revealed exciting specifications for DJI Airs 3S and DJI Mini 4 Pro users. The beacon will be backwards compatible to both drones with OcuSync 4.0 (Now O4). This is the last of three article about the upcoming DJI beacon:

• Why was the DJI RC track cancelled when it was promised with the DJI Air 3S? (Part 2)
• When will the beacon launch and what are the exact specifications? (Part 3)

Available at launch of the DJI Mavic 4 Pro

In my previous post we learned the beacon will likely be featured with the launch of the DJI Mavic 4 Pro. Leaked software of the DJI Fly App there confirmed you can link the Mavic 4 to the DJI RC Track. Meaning; with the launch of the Mavic 4 scheduled at late April 2025 I think its becoming obvious we will finally see the beacon coming to the market.

The DJI RC Track official specifications:

• Weight: 116 grams. (4.09 oz)
• Operating time: 2 hours.
• Max. distance of drone controlled with the DJI RC Track: 100 m (328 ft)
• Max. Altitude of drone controlled with the DJI RC Track: 120 m (393.7 ft)
• Ingress Protection Rating: IPX7
• Operating Temperature: -10 C to 40 C (14 F tot 104 F)
• Supported drones: DJI Air 3S (Not supported yet: DJI Mini 4 Pro)

While the specifications do say it’s IPX7, it means it’s only waterproof up to 30 minutes in 1 meter of water. So I wouldn’t recommend using it in too wet or muddy conditions. Also please note the distance and altitude is while you are using the DJI RC track as the stand alone remote.

Mini 4 Pro not supported ‘YET’

While the specifications don’t mention the DJI Mavic 4 (because we are looking at a leaked but older DJI Air 3S specsheet) this sheet does mention the DJI Mini 4 Pro. The ‘not supported yet’ actually means it will work in the future. I think its actually I good thing to see DJI making products also backwards compatible and not only creating stuff forcing you to buy a new drone.

Concluding the RC Track articles.

Although the DJI RC Track was leaked and cancelled, new leaks promise us the compatibility with the DJI Mavic 4, DJI Air 3S and now even the DJI Mini 4 Pro. Making it a versatile and long awaited gimmick For DJI users who want more control over the drones while they are using the tracking compatibilities of their drones. I think it will actually be a great feature for cyclists to manually change the distance and angle video while it’s following you without touching a remote screen or app.
