What one Redditor said

I was in the same situation not long ago and ended up choosing the Air 3S. My main concern was wind resistance, since it’s often breezy where I live. After flying it, I can confidently say I made the

I bought a new Air 3S and six months later, after an update, the drone would only go 100 meters away and stopped climbing at 50 ft until I signed in to DJI.

I am quite concerned about flying my Air3s now, lest the same thing happen as with the Neo.

I’ve had one incident with my Air 3s that was scary! A bird swooped up and hit my drone, knocking it off balance for a few seconds, but fortunately for me the strike didn’t cause any fatal damage!

That's a beautiful video I hope the Mini 5 Pro gets closer to the quality of Air 3s

r/djineutral1

I pray everyday that DJI gives the air 3s sdk support. I know it will not happen but I keep that hope.

r/djipositive1

Based on my albeit limited time with the Air 3 so far, you're going to love the Air 3S. Getting it for free is fantastic!

r/djineutral4

Hard to believe anyone is "prepared" to pay the duties, the Air 3S is not that expensive.

r/djineutral11

I claimed the exact purchase price with receipt to prove it. DJI AIR 3s fly more combo Which converted to USD was exactly $1450.

r/djineutral2

I literally got an air 3s from Korea on Amazon this month delivered by FedEx

r/djipositive11

Air 3s is takes high winds like a champ and still produces stable video

r/djipositive6

Yes, Air 3S is a lot better at wind resistance. It also has a more pleasing sound, a softer hum.

r/djineutral2

I have Air 3S, and Avata 2. I'd love the Mavic 4 Pro Creator Combo just for the telephoto lens alone.

r/djineutral5

I’m in this exact debate right now. My mini 4 pro got hit by a bird and is the bottom of a lake. I loved my mini for portability but now I’m considering getting an air 3s now

r/djipositive2

Air3s -You've got the telephoto lens,better stability and Lidar

r/djipositive2

Cropping into a vertical format on the Air 3s still looks amazing
