DJI Lito X1
The DJI Lito X1 is a premium beginner camera drone that makes professional-quality aerial content genuinely accessible. A 1/1.3-inch sensor captures rich daylight detail and clean low-light footage, omnidirectional obstacle sensing with forward-facing LiDAR keeps you in the air safely, and ActiveTrack handles the camera work so you can stay focused on the moment.
- 1/1.3-inch sensor, f/1.7 aperture: Captures detailed daytime scenes and low-noise nightscapes without requiring any manual camera knowledge. SmartPhoto automatically optimises lighting and colour at 4K (12 MP) resolution.
- Omnidirectional obstacle sensing with LiDAR: The built-in vision system actively avoids obstacles in all six directions. A forward-facing LiDAR sensor adds a second layer of precision detection, giving beginners confidence in complex environments.
- ActiveTrack at up to 12 m/s: Stable, safe subject tracking across a range of scenarios and speeds. Set it and stay in the moment - the Lito X1 keeps you in frame from above.
- Under 249 g, no training required in most regions: Folds to palm size and fits in a backpack. At under 249 g, it is free from training or examination requirements in most countries and regions.
- 36 minutes flight time, 42 GB internal storage: Fly a full session without running out of battery or storage. QuickTransfer via Wi-Fi 6 offloads everything at up to 50 MB/s - a full 42 GB in approximately 14 minutes.

FAQs
Do I need a Transport Canada licence to fly the DJI Lito X1 in Canada?
The Lito X1 weighs 249 g with the standard Intelligent Flight Battery. Under 250 g is generally below the threshold for mandatory RPAS registration in Canada, but always confirm current Transport Canada requirements before flying. If you install the Intelligent Flight Battery Plus, the aircraft will exceed 249 g and different rules may apply.
What is the difference between the Intelligent Flight Battery and the Intelligent Flight Battery Plus?
The standard Intelligent Flight Battery (included with the aircraft) provides up to 36 minutes of flight time. The Intelligent Flight Battery Plus (sold separately) extends flight time to up to 52 minutes and increases the aircraft's weight above 249 g. The Plus battery is also available as part of the Fly More Combo Plus.
Can the Lito X1 be used at night or in low-light conditions?
Yes. The 1/1.3-inch sensor with f/1.7 aperture is designed for clean low-noise nightscapes. The omnidirectional obstacle sensing system requires a minimum of 5 lux of illumination to function -- fly with caution in very dark environments and always check the DJI Fly app for sensing status warnings.
What smart shooting modes are available?
QuickShots (Dronie, Rocket, Circle, Helix, Boomerang, Asteroid), MasterShots (auto-matches Portrait, Proximity, or Landscape flight paths and edits footage automatically), Hyperlapse, and Panorama (180-degree, wide-angle, vertical, sphere).
Does the Lito X1 work without a controller?
A controller is required to fly. The Lito X1 is available as an aircraft-only listing or as a Fly More Combo with either the DJI RC-N3 (pairs with your smartphone) or the DJI RC 2 (built-in screen, no phone required). Contact Candrone to confirm the right configuration for your needs.
