DJI Neo My Thoughts After 30 Days

Is there any Software differences among this Neo and other drones? Like shooting styles or it is same?

Will the rm330 controller fly the neo

$179 where?

Love my neo! It makes capturing short video swiftly. So much potential from this lil drone:)

I would love to get this drone but because he can’t fly over water is a no go for me.
This drone will be perfect for my canoe adventures but it’s not there yet

Hello Sir, I’m new to your channel and I am about to buy a DJI Neo, I already have the DJI Mic mark I, is this type of microphone compatible with the drone through the App or it is necessary to buy the DJI Mic mark II, in order to use it with the drone? Thank you.

Great drone idea video, mate 🚀

I agree with all you said, however, can't wait for Neo 2 or Pro for better camera, battery, and maybe side sensors for it's quick shots.
(Seems I just repeated what the person below me said, so I am not alone in being willing to pay more to get more. I suspect that version 2 is already prepared as DJI milks every dollar out of the most basic prior to releasing the real deal.) Unfortunately, the phone mike doesn't just filter out drone noise, but nature sounds also like a stream or frogs, etc, however it also filtered out my mower when I was riding it, so there is good and the bad...

Prior to watching this video, I watched your excellent tutorial video on the Neo.....by the way, I'm now subscribed to your channel. Good to hear that you're still enjoying the Neo a month later 👍. Obviously given the price, the Neo is not going to have all the bells and whistles that the more expensive DJI drones have, but for a drone newbie like myself, I think the Neo is a good buy. Plus, I may even get so into drones, that I may want to purchase a more expensive drone in the future 😂. Will be interesting to see though when DJI do eventually design a Neo 2, what improved features that will have.

How does it compare with the new Hover Pro

speed limit in tracking mode still not good enough, wish can follow up to 40km/h

Where do you find it for $179?

I started with the Mavic Pro with Goggles then Air 2 for the Active Track, and bought the mini 2 with the worthless Litchi app so to use active track but have yet had it work with the app.
So when the Neo came out it was a TOTAL GAME CHANGER.... Active track is spot on with no remote needed, just turn on and off you go. Great Job DJI.

I ❤ it

Great information, thanks. I love my Neo even though I own more drones

Might just look into this for Cyber Monday or the next Prime days, if it's sold on Amazon.
Anyway, thank you for the update. So many reviewers just post an initial review of the current thing and move on, never to do a follow up review after a few weeks or months.

I think this would be a great Christmas gift. I believe this would satisfy the requirements for flying over people.

Great follow up and congratulations on still kicking so much butt to maintain your weight goals!

I've shot some good footage with mine, just last weekend. Had it .4 miles away overflying a construction site. Another rc channel said it was bested by a $200 Holy Stone which did not even have a gimbal of any kind. But, it was obvious the HS drone was provided by the manufacturer.

Is it compatible with a Spark controller? I lost my Spark in the mountains but still have all the other kit.

Ever since the Avata 1 came out I kept hoping for a sub 250 Avata. I would have way prefered the neo be just under 250g and have a better camera, maybe longer flight times and if they could improve obstacle avoidance that would be a bonus.

Just FYI the Neo is $199 in the US. Its only $179 in Canada.

Good video Dhawn

Great drone took it up 100m in the air and it was great and for the video really good this does more then the mini 2

I might buy it as a beginner but my dad will probably tell me to use my brothers dji mini 3

you edited the dji neo videos from this upload? or the videos are stock?

Great review 👍🏻 and honestly you have lost a lot weight... looking good

Really disappointed to have all controllers for my Mini 3 Pro and not being allowed by DJI to use them on my Neo. Not getting RTH with my mobile phone is also a dealbreaker for many, I hate this being denied to us owners by DJI. I love the size of Neo, the only really everyday portable drone by DJI.

Great review, Thanks for sharing

I saw this drone on another channel (from the UK) and was struck by how incredibly noisy and annoying it was. Any thoughts on that?

Thanks you for update!

Sent mine back...unusable stills (even with RC) and pretty low grade video. Sure it's cheap and can't expect miracles but would happily pay an extra $100 for a good camera, after all it's a flying CAMERA! Nice build and design tho. Neo 2?!!! My 3 year old Mini 2 image quality kills this device.

I haven't had the drone as long as you, I'm in the US and it showed up a month late. Thanks for sharing your thoughts on it after having enough time to put it through it paces, it has it place as far as being a tool to help you create unique content.

Another great video, and I agree. Love it for what it is and does. I guess I'm the only one with the following issue thou. Kinda funny. SOMETIMES when I stop then reach out for a palm landing, it's just out of reach. And I have to jump forward to get under it. Once on frontal follow, I stopped, it came back just out of reach, so as I was reaching for it, I kinda had to chase it, was moving away. Finally had to swat it down. lol.

hey, i'm addicted to neo and use it to fly daily.
=_=

Use mine alongside action cam for moto vlogging and walking, very versatile and portable, image quality is fine for the price of the drone.

Nice review with real time experience
Thanks for this

I agree 100%. It's a great little drone and I am more excited for the NEO 2 than any other DJI product.

Yeo! I agree ..a handy little drone to carry along. The whine still bugs me. And the direction track following in front seems flakey.
