Leaked FCC documents reveal DJI Lito 1 and Lito X1 drones, with specs like O5 transmission and obstacle avoidance. Expected launch in early 2026.
DJI appears to be preparing to launch a new lineup of consumer drones. Documents discovered in the U.S. Federal Communications Commission (FCC) database point to the development of two models: the DJI Lito 1 and the DJI Lito X1. While there has been no official announcement yet, regulatory leaks are already revealing key details, hinting at the imminent arrival of these new products on the market.
The DJI Lito 1, identified by the internal code SS3-DGN12, is considered an affordable entry-level model and a potential successor to the current Mini 4K. Its starting price is expected to be around $330, with 22 GB of internal storage. This drone seems aimed at basic photo and video capture, without a strong focus on professional features.
The DJI Lito X1, with the code SS3-DGP14, looks far more interesting. This model is rumored to replace the Mini 5 Pro and is designed for more demanding content creators. Its price may start at approximately $759, with internal storage increasing to 42 GB. FCC documents also mention an SDR Transceiver2 module, which could indicate the implementation of the next-generation DJI O5 image transmission system with a range exceeding 20 kilometers.
Beyond the extended communication range, the Lito X1 is attributed with an advanced omnidirectional obstacle avoidance system. This combines wide-angle optics, a sensor with a range of about 10 meters, and an infrared module. The drone is also expected to support voice commands and gesture control. According to sources, it may be released in two versions: a standard version with around 30 minutes of flight time and a weight under 250 grams, and a Plus variant that increases flight time to 50 minutes.
This detail matters because FCC confidentiality agreements last 180 days, meaning DJI must publicly present the devices by May 25, 2026, or the documents will be automatically disclosed. Based on preliminary forecasts, the launch of the new drones could occur between late February and early April.
