What’s unique to the Adventure Combo?
Optimised adventurers, the DJI Osmo Action 3 Adventure Combo is designed to help action enthusiasts pick up the new Osmo Action 3 along with a variety of must-have accessories at a discounted price when compared to buying them separately.
Extreme Batteries
The Osmo Action 3 Adventure Combo includes two additional Extreme Batteries for the Action 3. These swappable batteries power the Action 3 for up to 160 minutes each. With three total batteries included with the Adventure Combo, you can record an entire day’s worth of adventures with up to 8 hours of total battery life when fully charged.
Multifunctional Battery Charging Case
Also included is the new Osmo Action 3 Multifunctional Battery Charging Case which houses and charges the three Extreme Batteries included in this combo. Not only does this case act as a charging hub for your batteries, but it can also be used as a traditional power bank when you’re out and about and in need of a quick charge.
1.5 Metre Extension Rod
The Adventure Combo makes it easy to capture the action from all-new perspectives with the inclusion of an Osmo 1.5 Metre Extension Rod. This versatile extension rod attaches easily to the Osmo Action 3 and can be used to capture from otherwise unreachable angles and perspectives. It’s perfect for vlogging, can be used as a selfie stick and so much more.
Additional Accessories
Thought that was it? Think again! The Action 3 Adventure Combo also includes small but useful additions like an extra Quick-Release Adapter Mount and Osmo Locking Screw.

Which combo is best?
The combo you get will depend on your needs. Unlike other DJI releases where users choose a combo based on the core product they want (like in the case of the DJI Mavic 3 and Mavic 3 Cine), the combo you choose will depend on the accessories you’re after.
The Standard Combo provides everything you need to get started, but if you’re a serious adrenaline junkie or just consistently find yourself out and about adventuring, the Action 3 Adventure Combo is definitely the combo for you. The addition of the 1.5m extension rod provides new creative possibilities and can help you capture your adventures in dynamic new ways and having two additional batteries on hand certainly never hurts.
And as a major plus, the Osmo Action 3 Adventure Combo costs significantly less when compared to purchasing the additional accessories in the combo separately.
