Hi Darren, Another great video I like the way you tell it as it is, warts and all. It’s another learning curve for me v my Air 2S. What’s not to like? 2 cameras, cruise control - 360 obstacle avoidance - waypoints - occusync 4 - different Advanced Gimbal Settings to name a few. I am still finding the stick controls very sensitive to touch. Maybe I am heavy handed. The journey continues, have a great weekend. Regards Nigel G

Just got my Air 3 last week. Im brand new to drones and I'm blown away by the quality of the video and the performance. Mind you I only use my drone for fun recreation but I think it will be a very long time before I feel a need to upgrade to something else. The issues most people complain about are way over my level. There is so much to learn....its addictive!

I bought the Air 3, and I have to say, I'm loving it, quick if needed, very responsive, great picture and video, brilliant battery life and I've flown it a lot, and not had any signal issues. Yes, the camera is smaller, but it uses a superior technology so is actually better.🤛

Do you feel it’s too late in the cycle to snag a mavic 3 pro. Feel like there is definitely a 4 coming w occusynch 4. And compatibility with a. New rc pro controller. And perhaps cam lengths that are easier to put together without obvious camera quality differences. What do you think?

Really enjoying all of your videos Darren. Thank you for the excellent, balanced advice you give. 👊

I have an original Mavic Pro, should i upgrade to the Air 3 or the Mavi 3 pro ? what will be the bigger improvement from what i have ?

Thanks for this, I'm still undecided if I should get the fly more package of this or keep saving for the mavic 3 pro, I'm currently on a mavic pro platinum that's getting up there in mileage and wanted to upgrade.

QUESTION: Im coming from the DJI Phantom 4pro and for the RC, I needed to plug in my cell. My cell would keep a copy of the video I would record at a lower quality, does this RC for the DJI Air 3 keep a lower quality video in it?

Great review, I have a Mavic 2 zoom and the controller needs a battery is there any better controller that I could buy to replace the original one?

Which would you prefer for photography air3 or mavic classic 3?

Thanks for the Video! Is there a chance that the DJI RC2 will be downward compatible to the Mjni 3 Pro and the Mavic 3? I would love to upgrade my DJI RC without buying the RC Pro.

Does the 48mp mode still suffer from the same chromatic aberrations and colour shifts as much as the mini 3 Pro? It'd be interesting to see seeing as they both use the same omnivision ov48c sensor.

🤛 I recently upgraded to a Air 3 from a MA 2 my only complaint is the Pano’s and 360’s do not stitch together anywhere as good as the MA 2, any suggestions? They aren’t sharing quality 🤔

I got my Air 3 a month ago and , while on a trip, have been using it in Colorado, north of Durango and Silverton. I have been using a Phantom 4 pro plus for over 7 years. The Air 3 completely solved the lack of reception I constantly experienced with the P4 pro, but I can't use my expensive Skyzone goggles with the Air 3 due to no HDMI port on the RC 2N controller. I hope DJI will come out with a controller with an HDMI port.

My friend, one question... I'm about to buy the DJI Avata BUT something tells me the next generation its around the corner... what do you suggest?

I love the features of the air 3. Once I familiarize myself better with its features, I’ll check out your products. Keep up the good work!

6:40 do you think what you mentioned is going to come for the air 3? Sucks that it is missing stuff like that as it's important for someone like me to have. What's your thoughts on this?

what a fantastic and well put together channel you have , i look forward to the next video you put out every time. but before it gets to late can you please make a short video about what happened and where dose the Mavic 3 fit in to the DJI line up now. i Managed to pick one up just as they were discontinued but i dont understand why. was it because the Air 3 was on its way if so why ? id love to hear your thoughts on this. keep up the amazing work you do.

I bought the Air 2 back in 2020. In 2021 the Air 2s was realised. Gutted was an understatement. Never going to fall for that old DJI trick again. I can guarantee as God makes little green apples in 2024 there will be a refresher Air 3 model that will have some arse kicking features. What they will be I'm sure you'll be making another splendid video on it 🤜

A few months ago a friend bought the Air 3 and it's great but I'm going to hold out for the Air 3s that will undoubtedly come out later this year. I've had 3 Sparks, 2 Mavic Pros, an Air 2 and Air 2s. Never bought a drone brand new, all mint condition second hand. The Air 3s maybe my first new drone.

Love all your drone content, Darren, it makes me more informed of what drone is right for me when I want to upgrade from my DJI Mini 2. 👊 From Lewis in Southport.

Because the A3 doesn't support the RC Pro, I bought a Mavic 3 Classic. According to everything I have been able to research, all it would take to be compatible is a firmware update. ALL of the physical/electrical requirements are there on the RC Pro. Come on, DJI, Git 'er done!!!

Here’s what I can’t figure out…the Remote has a mic and speaker, but I can’t figure out how to record my voice as a slate for the clips, or how to playback the audio. Ami I missing something?

Has DJI ever taken a step backwards when making drones. I suspect this stacked sensor is kind of like a prototype for whats to come, imagine the research they must be doing. I am sure any drone from here on will be awesome (as everything thus far). For me any current drone would be a huge upgrade to my air 1. Way pionts and 360 dec. sensors sold me on the air 3. The rotating camera.. couldn`t care less about it. so for me it`s perfect. Just got mine, maiden flight this weekend.

When dji launched air3 I trashed them in comments like anything . Post your video I sold my mini 3 pro and upgraded to air 3 . The performance of it just slapped me for being wrong about DJI . There is drastic diff between mini 3 pro and air 3 in image quality . Low light is top notch and stable footages always no need to mind wind unlike mini 3 pro . Loved the new rc and battery package . Thank you so much for the review and sorry to DJI for wrong about you

One cannot mirror the screen to an alternative device? Unless I’m wrong many will not be buying the Air 3 for that reason alone, particularly if they have bought the RC Pro controller.

One thing about posting on social media like facebook, instagram, TikTok or Twitter is that you’re video quality is pretty much destroyed after uploading to the platforms so does it really matter that you have 4k or 5.4k footage and then the social media platforms reduce your quality down to 1080 p or 720p? That’s one issue I have when uploading to the social media platforms.

Great job!✊Just ordered my Air 3!

I own a Air 2s. So I don't really need to upgrade for now. But I think that dji should bring a firmware update for 2.7k vertical video. Since you can already do that if you crop 5.4K video ( and even have a little more pixels than 2.7K) , but even if they only make an overlay on the video feed to being able to compose knowing where the vertical video limits are.

👊 love the content here always :)

Finally.we potential buyers would like an honest assessment like this instead of biased youtube videos. Would anyone will buy this when they know there will be another s version in few months with 1 inch sensor? I think youtube is becoming false advertisement portal for companies. Please call it when its not up-to the mark.

I Have the mini 3 pro and will be looking at the Air 3 In the new year it looks to be a quality drone for the price point and ideal for the hobbyist.

Had my DJI Air 3 & RC 2 controller now about a week. Have yet to be able to go live on KZread with RTMP. My old Mavic 2 works perfectly in side by side test. Contacted DJI and they said they would get back with me. Anybody else having this issue?

👍👍✌️ If I was in the market for a new drone I would definitely pick this one up. Really like the weight for wind it has and the zoom of course. Have a Mavic 2 pro and for what I do with my drone it’s all I need. It’s still a great drone.

Isn't it being sold with the RC pro as an option?

The good and the bad... but the bad you talk about sound not bad at all. I'm thinking of upgrading from the mini 2 towards the air 3 instead of buying a mini 3 or 4 pro... what do you reckon

@caiomariettino1858

Absolutely, the 3X optical zoom, wind resistance and overall speed of the Air 3 is what made me choose it. It's a phenomenal drone for its price

Given the immediate negativity towards the Air 3 in its first few weeks and even before then from the content creators I held back buying one. Compared to the Mini 3 Pro the Air 3 is a beast and sufficient a step up for my needs - especially at the price. I think DJI nailed it in the cost vs specs vs target audience and if you want the new RC 2 then you'll just have to wait for it 🤣

Good comprehensive video! As for your point about "stacked sensor", I looked up the DJI Air 3 spec sheet and didn't see that listed. Then I contacted the DJI support and got the response that Air 3 doesn't have a stacked sensor. So my guess is that Air 3 is simply doing better software processing.

So if I understand correctly. Since I already have a Mini 3 Pro. If I get the Air 3 I need 2 controllers. But if I go Mavic classic I dont.

I've been perfectly happy with my Mini 3 Pro but in time a few weaknesses showed - I love shooting longer focal lengths so always wanted the tele lens of the Mavic but the whole package was overkill for me. The Mini 3 does move around a fair bit in even light wind & it was lacking waypoints and some of the other useful shooting modes. The Air 3 ticks all the right boxes & has turned out to be the perfect upgrade. It's SO much more stable in wind, the extra speed is really useful (especially the descend speed) and the quality of the footage is definitely better and I find it much nicer to grade and more flexible in post. People like to harp on about the sensor size (which has become the new "megapixels" spec warrior moment) but the quality is definitely improved over the Mini 3 sensor. The stacked tech is a lot better in low light and very pleasantly surprised at how much better it is.

Yeah, this is literally one of the BEST drones. It's competitive even with the Mavic 3 Pro, and better in every way than the Mini 4 Pro. If you can get it for a good deal, like I got the Air 3 FMC/RC-2 bundle for $1,240, buying the Mini 4 Pro (especially with plus batteries) makes zero sense. I think it also makes these Mavic make a bit less sense that it used to as well. When you're getting 85% of the Mavic features, PLUS a few extras that even the Mavic doesn't have, and a controller on par with the RC Pro, does it really make sense to spend 3x the money? The only thing you actually lose is 7x optical zoom and adjustable aperature. You can get around that with ND filters, and the 200% digital zoom on the Air's 3x optical gives a still usable 6x hybrid zoom. You're getting improved transmission quality/range, flight time/battery life, and max speed on the Air, though. If they were both the same price or free, I can see why people would wanna go with one over the other. The Mavic still does have some pros, and makes sense as an option. What doesn't make sense is the price point.

As someone with an original Mavic Air, I'm looking at the Air 3 as a decent replacement! 👊
