Sony has announced its Airpeak S1 drone is now available to pre-order. After nearly a year of teasing its drone and showing off its capabilities in behind-the-scenes videos, Sony’s first professional drone is available to purchase—but it won’t come cheap.
 |
The Airpeak S1, which Sony calls ‘the world’s smallest drone that can be equipped with a full-size mirrorless interchangeable lens Alpha camera,’ is available to pre-order starting today, December 1, 2021, for $9,000. The Airpeak S1 is compatible with many of Sony’s mirrorless camera systems, including the a1, a7S series, a7R series, a9 series, FX3 and other E mount mirrorless cameras.
The Airpeak S1 will ship with two sets of propellers, a remote controller, two batteries and a battery charger. There will also be accessories available to purchase, including a third-party Gremsy gimbal that Sony says is ‘made specifically for the Airpeak S1.’ Sony is also offering an optional $300 per year subscription called ‘Airpeak Plus’ that covers accidental damage to the drone and includes Airpeak Base, a web app that serves as a hub for integrated management of flight plans, flight logs and equipment.
