  "textContent": "If you were already confused by the sheer number of drone models from DJI – from the Neo to the Flip; the Avata to the Mini Pro and the Mavic to the Air – get ready for more. The company has just announced the new Lito 1 and Lito X1 consumer drone models.\n\nThe Lito series is DJI's newest entry-level lineup, aimed squarely at first-time flyers who want capable aerial photography without a steep learning curve. Both models pack 48MP cameras and omnidirectional obstacle sensing rated to 5 lux, meaning they can detect cliffs, walls, and other hazards in dim lighting conditions.\n\nThe base Lito 1 uses a 1/2-inch CMOS sensor with an f/1.8 aperture, capable of shooting 8K stills and 4K video.\n\nThe Lito X1 steps things up with a larger 1/1.3-inch CMOS sensor, an f/1.7 aperture, HDR video with 14 stops of dynamic range, and 10-bit D-Log M for colour grading flexibility in post.\n\nIt also adds forward-facing LiDAR for more precise obstacle detection in complex environments, plus 42GB of onboard storage so you're not entirely dependent on a memory card.\n\nBoth drones support ActiveTrack for subject tracking at speeds up to 12 m/s, alongside QuickShots, MasterShots, Hyperlapse, and Panorama for automated cinematic shots without manual camera control.\n\nFlight time is rated at 36 minutes on a standard battery, with wind resistance up to 10.7 m/s.\n\nFiles transfer to your phone or computer at up to 50 MB/s over Wi-Fi 6 using QuickTransfer, and the Lito X1's onboard storage means you can offload clips without a card reader.\n\nDJI Care Refresh protection is available for the Lito 1, covering accidental damage including flyaways, collisions, and water damage. A one-year plan covers up to two replacements; a two-year plan covers up to four.\n\nSpec| Lito 1| Lito X1\n---|---|---\nSensor size| 1/2-inch CMOS| 1/1.3-inch CMOS\nEffective pixels| 48MP| 48MP\nAperture| f/1.8| f/1.7\nMax photo resolution| 8K| 48MP\nMax video resolution| 4K| 4K HDR\nDynamic range| N/A| 14 stops\nColour profile| N/A| 10-bit D-Log M\nObstacle sensing| Omnidirectional (5-lux)| Omnidirectional (5-lux) + forward LiDAR\nMax tracking speed| 12 m/s| 12 m/s\nFlight time| 36 min| 36 min\nWind resistance| 10.7 m/s| 10.7 m/s\nInternal storage| None| 42GB\nFile transfer| 50 MB/s (Wi-Fi 6)| 50 MB/s (Wi-Fi 6)\n\n## Pricing and availability\n\nThe DJI Lito 1 is priced at $539, with the Fly More Combo (which includes the DJI RC-N3 controller) available for $779.\n\nThe Lito X1 starts at $619, or $1,069 for the Fly More Combo with the DJI RC 2 controller.\n\nBoth are available now through store.dji.com/au and authorised DJI retailers across Australia.\n\n* * *\n\n### Latest drone deals",
