DJI, one of the world’s most popular drone manufacturers, is getting ready to launch the rumored non-Pro version of its Mini 3 drone. According to the posts on Twitter, the unannounced device is already on the shelf at some Best Buy stores, and some people have already bought it. Here are the price and features of DJI’s cheaper Mini 3 drone.

Cheaper DJI Mini 3 could launch very soon

If the photo shared by @ShaneScordamag1 is not fake, the DJI Mini 3 bundle could cost $859.99 with the Fly More kit, which includes the drone and screen-equipped DJI RC remote controller and a two-way charging hub, a shoulder bag, extra propellers, and screws. That’s over $200 cheaper than the $1,098 Mini 3 Pro cost with the same extras. Of course, this price may not seem cheap to some of you, but it should not be forgotten that the Chinese drone aims to professionals.

Non pro version stays in the air longer than its predecessor

This cheaper DJI mini kit also comes with three batteries offering a slightly longer maximum flight time than the up to 34 minutes provided by the batteries included with the Mini 3 Pro. Unfortunately, we only know the Bundle price at the moment, it’s still not clear how much the Mini 3 will cost by itself. Of course, being cheap has some cons.

According to DealsDrone, the standard Mini 3 may drop the front-facing obstacle sensors on its pricier counterpart, and it’s rumored to support a range of 10km (about 6.2 miles), as opposed to the more extended 10-12km range (about 7.4 miles) on the Mini 3 Pro. It looks like the DJI Mini 3 will weigh around 250-grams like its predecessors, which means you won’t need to register it with the Federal Aviation Administration in order to fly it. However, this may vary depending on the drone rules of your country. For this reason, it is useful to do detailed research before flying the drone. Also some leaks about the drone:

  • Sensor 1/1.3-inch
  • 4K HDR video
  • vertical mode
  • 38 min intelligent battery
  • Ocusync 2 (10km range)
