Bench test
Not yet bench-tested by Robot AutoTrader. Resale values are drawn from verified sale data.
£520 to £620 for the standard kit (drone, RC-N2 controller, one battery) and £700 to £800 for a Fly More Combo with the RC 2 screen controller and three healthy batteries. Dealer-graded units cost more — MPB lists the Fly More Combo at £899 to £909 with a warranty. Private-sale asking prices above £950 are optimistic; the Air 3S has taken over the new market at similar money.
Less than you would expect for a superseded model. Against the £962 launch price, a £650 used standard-to-combo kit is a discount of around 32% after two years. New stock scarcity is propping values up: the remaining UK retailers now charge £1,079 or more for a new Fly More Combo, above what it cost at launch. Our index estimate is 91.4, down 8.6% year on year — treat that as provisional until more verified sales accumulate.
The Air 3S adds a larger 1-inch main sensor and forward LiDAR for around £200 to £300 more used — eBay UK asks for used Air 3S Fly More Combos run £1,000 to £1,200 against £720 to £950 for the Air 3. If low-light video matters, that gap is worth paying. If you mostly fly in daylight, the Air 3's dual cameras, flight time, and transmission are the same generation and the saving is real.
At about 720 g the Air 3 does not get the sub-250 g freedoms. You need a Flyer ID (free CAA online test) and an Operator ID (£11.79/year), and for recreational flying it is effectively an A3 aircraft: keep 150 m from residential, commercial, industrial, and recreational areas and 50 m from uninvolved people unless you hold an A2 Certificate of Competency. If flying near built-up areas is the point, the sub-250 g Mini 4 Pro is the easier ownership proposition.
