DJI introduced its smallest yet most agile drone, specifically designed for effortless vlogging and everyday recording experiences. The palm-sized drone, weighing just 135 grams, offers effortless operation without remote control, rendering it remarkably accessible to users of all skill levels. This drone offers cutting-edge features, including AI-driven topic monitoring, intuitive QuickShots for seamless captures, and exceptional stabilized video capabilities. With an impressive flight duration of up to 18 minutes, users can fully immerse themselves in their creative pursuits or capture extended moments with precision.
The Neo can be controlled using its intuitive mode button or seamlessly paired with the DJI Fly app, offering additional features such as digital joysticks and voice commands. Additionally, this feature enhances compatibility with specialized gear like DJI Goggles and RC Motion, creating a truly immersive aerial experience. The Wi-Fi connection enables remote management of the Neo up to a distance of approximately 50 metres, while pairing it with the DJI RC-N3 controller extends this range to an impressive 10 kilometres.
With its robust combination of RockSteady’s single-axis mechanical gimbal and advanced HorizonBalancing stabilization technology, this drone is capable of producing crisp and stable video even in the most turbulent wind conditions. A compact ½-inch picture sensor captures 12MP stills, while six innovative QuickShot modes – akin to Dronie and Helix – generate dynamic, professional-grade images.
The Neo offers a generous 22GB of internal storage, accommodating up to 40 minutes of crisp 4K video at 30 frames per second or an impressive 55 minutes of smooth Full HD footage at 60 frames per second. The audio recording feature is available through the DJI Fly app, allowing users to capture sound using their smartphone’s built-in microphone or the DJI Mic 2. The app also features comprehensive templates and instant result options for rapid video editing and seamless sharing.
With a retail value of $999, the DJI Neo is an exceptional drone, and its Fly Extra Combo is priced at $299. DJI offers a subscription-based service called DJI Care Refresh, providing an added layer of protection against accidental damage to your drone.
