DJI could soon introduce a new line of consumer drones in the market. According to the outlet thenewcamera, certification filings with the U.S. Federal Communications Commission (FCC) suggest that DJI is working on two new drones: the DJI Lito 1 and the DJI Lito X1.

As with many DJI leaks, the details come from regulatory paperwork rather than official announcements. The documents reveal internal codenames, early hardware references, and just enough hints to sketch out where these drones might sit in DJI’s lineup.

DJI Lito 1

The DJI Lito 1 seems to be the more affordable of the two. Listed under the codename SS3-DGN12, the Lito 1 is believed to be an entry-level drone intended to replace the current Mini 4K. It could start at around $330. 

While the certification documents don’t go deep into camera or flight features, storage is listed at 22GB. Expect it to be for light photo and video use rather than more demanding production work.

DJI Lito X1

The Lito X1, on the other hand, looks like a serious upgrade. Codenamed SS3-DGP14, this model is expected to replace the Mini 5 Pro and focus more heavily on video creation. The starting price is rumored to be around $759.

One of the more notable details in the FCC filings is the mention of “SDR Transceiver 2” for the Lito X1. So the drone could use DJI’s next-generation O5 image transmission system. And if true, that would allow transmission distances of over 20 kilometers (about 12.4 miles). 

There’s also speculation that DJI could integrate 5G cellular connectivity through SDR technology, although this remains unconfirmed.

Moreover, the Lito X1 may also get a 360-degree omnidirectional obstacle avoidance support that combines a fisheye optical lens, a LiDAR-like sensor with a 10-meter detection range, and an infrared module. The drone is also expected to support voice commands like “Hey, take off,” along with motion-based controls.

The Lito X1 is said to come in two versions: a standard model with around 30 minutes of flight time while staying under 250 grams, and a Plus version that extends flight time to roughly 50 minutes. Internal storage on the Lito X1 is reportedly increased to about 42GB.

As for timing, FCC confidentiality agreements typically last 180 days. That means DJI must publicly disclose the products by May 25, 2026, or the documents will be automatically released. 

The report suggests DJI could launch the drones between late February and early April.
