FAQ
Product
Compared with DJI Air 2S, what are the main upgrades of DJI Air 3?
DJI Air 3 has improved the camera system, video transmission system, vision sensing system, flight time, and intelligent features. Details are as follows:
A 1/1.3-inch CMOS 70mm medium tele camera is added. The video transmission system is upgraded to the next-gen O4 HD video transmission system. The drone is equipped with an omnidirectional vision sensing system and supports Advanced Pilot Assistance Systems (APAS) 5.0. The max hovering time is 42 minutes*, and the max flight time is 46 minutes**. The drone supports Waypoint Flight, Advanced RTH, Cruise Control, QuickTransfer, and other intelligent functions.
* Measured with DJI Air 3 hovering in a windless environment at sea level, with APAS off, AirSense off, camera parameters set to 1080p/24fps, video mode off, and from 100% battery level until 0%. Data is for reference only. Always pay attention to reminders in the app during your flight.
** Measured with DJI Air 3 flying at a constant speed of 28.8 kph in a windless environment at sea level, with APAS off, AirSense off, camera parameters set to 1080p/24fps, video mode off, and from 100% battery level until 0%. Data is for reference only. Always pay attention to reminders in the app during your flight.

What is the certification level of DJI Air 3 in Europe?
DJI Air 3 is C1 certified by the European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA).
Camera
Does DJI Air 3 support vertical shooting?
Both the wide-angle camera and medium tele camera support vertical shooting (9:16), and the max shooting specification is 2.7K/60fps.
Does the DJI Air 3 medium tele camera support MasterShots?
Yes.
Does the DJI Air 3 medium tele camera support Panorama?
No.
Does the DJI Air 3 medium tele camera support QuickShots?
DJI Air 3 supports all QuickShots modes except for Asteroid.
Does DJI Air 3 support shooting D-Log M and HLG videos?
Both the wide-angle camera and medium tele camera support shooting 10-bit D-Log M and 10-bit HLG videos. 10-bit D-Log M mode facilitates more flexible color grading in post-production, and 10-bit HLG mode can achieve previews with higher dynamic range (requires equipment that supports HDR display).
Remote Controller and Video Transmission
Which remote controllers are compatible with DJI Air 3?
DJI RC-N2 and DJI RC 2.
Compared with the O3 video transmission system, what are the upgrades of the O4 video transmission system?
The O4 video transmission system adopts an all-new hardware solution. The aircraft antenna system is upgraded from four antennas to six, and a new frequency band* has been added. The communication algorithm has also been upgraded, which not only delivers an FHD video transmission from a max range of 20 km**, but also features enhanced anti-interference capabilities, further improving the transmission stability in complex environments like urban settings. The remote controller also supports a 1080p/60fps max real-time live feed, with the higher frame rate delivering a smoother viewing experience.
* Can be used only in countries and regions where it is allowed by local laws and regulations.
** Measured in an open outdoor environment without interference and with FCC compliance. The above data shows the farthest communication range for one-way, non-return flights. Always pay attention to reminders in the app during your flight.

Does the max transmission distance of the O4 video transmission system vary according to the interference level of the environment?
In different environments, the wireless interference level is different, and the max transmission distance will vary.
Unobstructed:
Strong Interference: urban landscapes, approx. 1.5-4 km
Medium Interference: suburban landscapes, approx. 4-10 km
Low Interference: suburbs/seaside, approx. 10-20 km

Compared with the DJI RC-N1 Remote Controller, what are the upgrades of the DJI RC-N2 Remote Controller?
The video transmission solution has been upgraded, and the antenna system is upgraded from 1T2R to 2T2R. With DJI Air 3, the O4 video transmission can be used.
Compared with DJI RC, what are the upgrades of DJI RC 2?
The performance of the processor is improved for smoother operation. The video transmission solution has been upgraded, and the antenna system has been upgraded from 1T2R to 2T4R. With DJI Air 3, O4 video transmission can be used. DJI RC 2 features two built-in antennas and two external antennas, and also allows angle adjustments for the external dual antennas to achieve better video transmission effects.
What do I need to operate the DJI 4G Dongle legally in the UK?
To operate a drone fitted with a DJI 4G Dongle in the UK you must:
1. Apply for an Ofcom UAS (Unmanned Aircraft Systems) Licence.
2. Seek written permission for airborne use of mobile network user equipment and use a network SIM card specifically authorised for 4G UAS operations, if directed by the network.
Further details are referenced in Ofcom licensing guidance.
Depending on the weight of your drone, you may need to register as an operator and obtain an operator ID from the CAA. To apply for an operator ID, visit the CAA website: Registering a drone or model aircraft | UK Civil Aviation Authority.

Ensure you meet all requirements and guidelines provided by these authorities.
Ensure you meet all requirements and guidelines provided by these authorities.
Can I use a standard network SIM for 4G Dongle operations in the UK?
No, a standard network SIM is not compliant with the legal requirements for operating the 4G Dongle in the UK. You must obtain a dedicated SIM authorised for UAS operations through your network provider.
Flight Safety and Obstacle Sensing
Does DJI Air 3 support omnidirectional obstacle sensing?
Yes.
How is ActiveTrack 5.0 different from ActiveTrack 4.0?
ActiveTrack 5.0 can track subjects in eight directions, enabling more creative possibilities. Embedded with advanced subject recognition technology, ActiveTrack 5.0 uses multiple vision sensors simultaneously to recognize a subject, differentiate it from other objects, and lock the subject in the frame. It allows you to adjust tracking angles smoothly for more natural results. Thanks to the new environment and subject-sensing algorithms, DJI Air 3 responds earlier to subject movements and environmental information and plans an optimal tracking route to record smooth and stable footage.
Firmware
How do I update the firmware of DJI Air 3?
You can either update the firmware on the DJI Fly app or by using DJI Assistant 2 (Consumer Drones Series) desktop software. Details for both firmware update methods can be found on the official website.
App
Which app is used with DJI Air 3? Where can I download it?
The DJI Fly app. You can visit the Downloads page of DJI Air 3 (https://www.dji.com/downloads/products/air-3) on the official DJI website to find the latest app version.
Accessories
How long does it take to fully charge a DJI Air 3 Intelligent Flight Battery?
Approximately 80 minutes when charging with the connected USB-C charging cable of the DJI 65W Portable Charger. Approximately 60 minutes when charging with the DJI 100W USB-C Power Adapter and DJI Air 3 Battery Charging Hub.
What are the upgrades of the DJI Air 3 Battery Charging Hub compared to the previous generation?
The new battery charging hub supports the power accumulation function and an external discharge function. It also adopts an upgraded structure for convenient carrying. With the power accumulation function, you can simply press and hold the function button to transfer the remaining power from multiple batteries to the battery with the highest remaining power, enabling a longer effective flight time. With the external discharge function, you can use the battery charging hub as a power bank and output the battery power to mobile phones, tablets, and other devices through the USB-C port at a power of up to 82 W.
Can I use other chargers with USB-C ports to charge the battery?
Yes. However, to ensure charging efficiency, we recommended using the DJI 65W Portable Charger, DJI 100W USB-C Power Adapter, or other chargers at 60W or above that support the PD protocol.
Can I charge the battery through the USB-C port on the DJI Air 3 aircraft?
Yes.
