Chinese consumer drone manufacturer DJI has unveiled a new drone which is almost an iteration of the Mavic 3. The new drone is the Mavic 3 Classic and features the L2D-20c aerial camera co-engineered with the legendary Swedish brand Hasselblad.

The Mavic 3 Classic packs a professional-grade 4/3 CMOS sensor that supports 20 megapixels (5280 x 3956px). It also features 12.8 stops of native dynamic range, F/2.8-F/11 variable aperture, and 3x digital zoom, combined with Hasselblad natural color solutions (HNCS). The drone can also shoot 12-bit color-depth photos in RAW format.

In terms of video, it supports up to 5.1K/50fps, 4K/60fps (oversampling), and 4K/120fps slow-motion recording formats. The drone equally supports 10-bit HLG color mode, which can present higher dynamic range pictures on playback devices without post-processing. Furthermore, the drone’s camera supports 10-bit D-log, allowing it to present delicate color gradients and retain more light and dark details.

The drone’s fuselage is fitted with 8 visual sensors that can detect obstacles in all directions. With APAS 5.0 (Advanced Flight Assistance System), it can detect objects in all directions at all times during the flight and avoid obstacles.

The flagship DJI O3+ image transmission technology can achieve an ultra-long communication distance of 15 kilometers and a 1080p/60fps image transmission quality. It can also be used with the DJI Cellular module to integrate the original image transmission signal and 4G network to increase performance in complex environments, reliability, and reduce the chance of disconnection.

For flight, the Mavic 3 Class comes with a constant-speed cruise feature. It also supports high-speed mobile phone connection, intelligent follow 5.0, master lens, one-click short film, panoramic shooting, etc.

The Classic drone crams a 5000mAh battery with a hover time of 40 minutes and a total flight time of 46 minutes. It has a maximum cruising range of 30 kilometers. The top horizontal flight speed is 21 m/s, while the full ascent speed is 8 m/s, and the maximum descent speed is 6 m/s.

The drone weighs 895 grams and in its folded state, it has a dimension of 221×96.3×90.3 mm. When unfolded, the dimension is 347.5×283×107.7 mm.

The Mavic 3 Class standard model with the RC-N1 controller is priced at $1,600. You can get the drone without the RC controller for $1,470.

DJI is apparently gearing up to launch a new drone from its popular Mavic series soon. The company has announced that the upcoming Mavic 3 Classic drone will be unveiled on the 2nd of November 2022. So here’s what we know so far.

As per an official teaser trailer, the Chinese drone maker is set to announce the new Mavic 3 Classic on November 2. The upcoming drone in question is believed to be from the Mavic series due to the camera lens that was seen in the recently shared teaser. The sensor looks nearly identical to the Hasselblad camera on the DJI Mavic 3. Although, this model lacked branding and a telephoto lens. But it appears that the cheaper version of its Mavic 3 drone might be the Classic, which would go official on the ‘Explore Vivid’ event next month.

Furthermore, the new drone also looks similar to the recent image leaks of the Mavic 3 Classic, which were shared by WinFuture. Apart from this, the Mavic 3 Drone had also passed through the FCC certification website as well previously. If the brand decides to launch the Mavic 3 Classic at an aggressive price, we can expect it to be quite an attractive option that might also compete with the company’s existing Mini 3 series of drones.

As of right now, it is unclear just how much the Mavic 3 Classic will cost. Although, we can expect this model to retail somewhere around the 1,400 US Dollars mark. Keep in mind that this is still just speculation so take this with a pinch of salt for now and stick around for more updates.
