Is it still worth buying the Mavic 3 Classic?
This might be a dumb question, but when you say ‘Classic,’ which drone are you talking about?
The Mavic 3 Classic.
Is it worth upgrading from the Air 2S? I fly all the time and have five batteries.

I’d wait for the next cycle if the Air 2S is doing everything you need.
Congrats on the purchase. I recently sold my Air 2S. I’m looking at the Avata 2 next for faster shooting. If only I had the budget for both!

The upgraded camera and better obstacle avoidance might make it worth it, especially if you fly in tricky environments.

The zoom feature alone makes it tempting. Plus, I’m planning to get the Neo, which isn’t compatible with the Air 2S remote. Factoring in rewards, selling my 2S, and other discounts, upgrading to the 3S will only cost me around $700.
The price is the same as the Air 3 on the DJI site. Do you think they’ll drop it once the 3S is widely available?

They recently had a $1200 sale for the best Air 3 combo. I think the price drop for the 3S will come eventually, but not anytime soon.
Not worth it for me. My Air 3 is still great.

The Air 3 is a solid drone, no doubt.

Glad to hear it! This will be my first DJI drone. The Air 3 seemed like a great starting point.

Same here. I got the Air 3 Fly More combo with the RC2 for $500 less than the 3S. The 3S upgrades don’t seem worth an extra $500 to me.
I just ordered the Air 3S too. I’ve been using the Air 2S since mid-2021, but I’m ready for an upgrade.

Awesome! Let me know what you think of the upgrade once you get it.
Do the Air 3S and Air 3 use the same battery? Can it work with the RC2 controller?

Great! I went with the 128GB cards for now, but I might upgrade later. Thanks for the tip!

128GB should be fine unless you’re shooting a lot of high-res footage. I only went with 256GB because the deal was too good to pass up.
@Micah
I’m planning to shoot in D-Log M and HLG, so we’ll see how it goes.

You might be surprised how quickly the space gets used up!
I’m passing on this one. I wanted a true Log profile, not D-Log M.
