The DJI Lito 1 is currently available at its lowest price yet. On Amazon, this entry-level drone—which was just introduced this year—is available for 271.20 euros, instead of the manufacturer’s suggested retail price of 339 euros. According to price comparison sites, this is the new all-time best price for this model.
DJI Lito 1 at the Best Price on Amazon
In addition to the drone and a battery, the offer also includes the RC-N3 remote control. As always with limited-time offers, the price is subject to change at any time, and availability may be limited in terms of quantity.
Equipment for Drone Beginners
With the Lito 1, DJI is specifically targeting beginners who want to benefit from a gentle learning curve. Omnidirectional obstacle detection is designed to prevent collisions and thus damage or injury. The ActiveTrack feature automatically tracks subjects and people, eliminating the need for manual control. As with the entire Lito series, which we reviewed when it was first introduced, the Lito 1 remains under the 250-gram limit and can therefore be flown without an EU pilot’s license. However, liability insurance is still required for legal operation.
4K Video and Decent Flight Time
For video recording, the Lito 1 features a 1/2-inch CMOS sensor that supports 4K resolution at 60 frames per second. Slow-motion footage is also possible in 4K, but at 100 frames per second. Vertical 2.7K footage is also available for social media content. DJI specifies a maximum flight time of up to 36 minutes, and video transmission is said to work over a distance of up to 15 kilometers. Footage is transferred to a smartphone via Wi-Fi 6 at speeds of up to 50 MB/s.
