As someone who is developing mobility issues, I really want this drone so I can experience hiking and short range excursions I wouldn't normally be able to.
If possible I recommend an E-bike as well, I have an injury that affects my endurance & pain tolerance. With the E bike I’m able to enjoy photography / videography, beats popping pills wasting away on the couch.
@@cuve_ae Thanks for the suggestion. I have a vehicle and I am able to drive it without issues currently. My issue is my Arthritis, Degenerative Disc Disease, and by the end of the month I'll know if I have Osteoporosis on top of that. What sucks is not being able to go hiking like I used to. So something like this would go a long way.
Have been looking at drones for sometime, this has just come at the right time, its my birthday next month and my wife and daughter have asked me what I would like, now I know
I didnt care when DJI introduced their drones back then not until this Neo is launched ❤ just ordered mine, it really took my interest for me its a cool little drone ❤❤
I thought the same and bought Neo. However, Neo cannot deliver an image quality that Spark did 7 years ago (even that Spark shoot only 1080). So, you may want hold on to buy Neo.
Great overview Shawn! DJI is going to sell a zillion of these things. Pulling out a larger drone for a quick shot is a total PITA. With NEO, it's a no-brainer. I've wanted this ability since the Spark days and it's finally here! Prediction: There will be a NEO Pro. Maybe it's already on DJI's roadmap or maybe it will happen because the experienced drone crowd will want higher quality video with more control (D-Log M, H.265, higher video bit rate, etc). Regardless, I can't wait to get my hands on this first version.
@@idaviddesmet DC Rainmaker just posted a video detailing some follow shots on a bike. you'll be more than fine in open areas i hope you make some great footage! :)
amazing stuff appreciate seeing your review and insights - ive had a few drones and still got a cluky big one plus the dobby - each has its own issues but this dji drone really addresses everything i was looking for especially being compact and high quality footage - ive got to treat myself to one of these
This looks so cool! 💙 It's great how easy they're making it for everyone to fly drones, even those with mobility issues. Makes it super accessible, ya know? Can't wait to see what creative stuff people come up with using the Neo! 🚀
Hey Shawn, wow, that's awesome! Prior to seeing this revue I didn't really have much interest in the neo but having watched your review I now realise how capable this would be. I like to do follow me bike rides and not having to carry a controller would be a game changer. It coped really well through the trees too so forest rides should be ok. It's almost a throwback to the original Mavic air that could be flown by hand gestures. Looking really trim now by the way!
I have a video. I’m uploading tomorrow all about tracking. I’ve been really impressed with the results. And as mentioned, it is so convenient you don’t even have to get off your bike you can just pull it out of a pocket deploy it and the way you go. I think a lot of people appreciate the simplicity and end up capturing more often because you don’t have the cumbersome controller to worry about if you just wanna capture some shots
Indeed, I think it’s gonna have a lot of useful applications. I’m working on another video about following and the tracking it can do and I mentioned that a lot of people may end up using it more just for its ease of use instead of messing around with a cumbersome controller when you just wanna grab a couple of quick shots?
Hello Sean, great review. I have got two questions: 1) If you start in antonomous mode, can you takeover control with mobile phone/N3 or you have to land it first? 2) when in autonomous mode like circle, is there some gesture to stop the manoeuvre when you notice possible collision? Thanks.
Hi am still using the first Mavic Mini 1 combo and still getting great video is the Dji Neo an upgrade? or am I better off keeping the old Mavic Mini 1? Thanks
How well does the tracking work if I’m walking in a crowd? Will it get confused with all the people? Or when I’m using it in a group shot, where I have a bunch of people around me?
Absolutely fantastic little drone. This going to sell like hotcakes its the ease of use and also great for kids to get into drones. DJI are onto a winner with this and as it evolves and improves for the next NEO which im sure they will add collision avoidance into the next version of the NEO as stated in another video there is lots of room in the actual body of the neo to do exactly this. So yes delighted to see the get released as i think so many more people have access now to those special moments and memories with this little gem.
Hi…I’m from India…going to buy 1st drone and I’m not pro….my use is just need for capturing the moments during vacation and family trips…which one would you suggest between dji mini 3 and dji neo? And one more…how is the video clarity compared between neo and mini 3???…..or shall I buy dji mini 2 se… and one more question does mobile control of dji neo is better option for capturing those family trip moments?
Great video as always. Hey, can you use the motion controller without the goggles? Or do they require each other? Would love to use mc3 with the rc2 for certain situations where one hand is tied up. Lookin great btw!🦾🦾
Yeah! Congrats and well done. Going through my own weight loss at the moment losing 40kg. Be interesting to hear how you did it in a video one day maybe.
This is an amazing drone for solo content creators like me. I have always detained from drones because of all the "take out from backpack, set the remote, fly, land, out everything back" hussle. But this is definitely the one I might want to use. Yet, I think there will be a new version next year with a couple more sensors and at least 60fps features. I amnot sure whether wait for a possible new version or buy and use this one. Great introduction by yhe way. Thanks.
Indeed, perfect for those types of scenarios and that’s exactly how I’ll be using it primarily. Of course I’ll probably fly FPV on top of that. I think for $199 there’s a lot of tech there a really good value.
Hello! I have a Mini 2, and it has a "fpv" gimbal mode, that can be activated in the app, with the "fn" button in the RC. The Neo does have this option with RC N3?
Mine arrives tomorrow! (3 battery kit - i have Goggles 3, Motion Controller 3, and FPV Controller 3 - I could get RC-N3 but it's redundant with Controller 3. I was busy with work this morning, but eventually I ordered from DJI direct, no tax even. Talk about budget, Care Refresh is cheaper than lunch for 2 at Fast Food (something one of us has steered clear of at least, LOL) Think I will use THIS to learn manual FPV instead of the Avata. Less risk when total replacement is $200 vs. $550 for Avata 2 A good little fella, he wants to be just like his Big Bro, Avata 2! Damn - DJI DID take the sound filter for voice from Hover X1 - I wondered if they would, knowing what the primary market target/niche DJi is after with this release. They absolutely HATE it when competitors try... you know, competing, lol!
They had that technology in their microphones. I think they just moved it over to the fly app. It does need some work, though it does sound a little muffled. I’m hoping they can fine-tune it a little bit.
considering my dpi drone flew into a river last month this is great timing! with no sd card does the footage go to your phone app? when launching from your palm how do you get it to land back in palm without a controller once your finished?
This thing looks so cool overall! The follow mode is super impressive, as is the extremely wide range of features. But am I the only one who thinks the video quality is quite poor? For a video drone I do feel video quality is an essential thing to talk about and what I'm seeing does not live up to current social media standards. Would love to have seen more about that in the video: how does it come out of the drone and how polishable is it?
Amazing OMG I just ordered the fly more combo.. I fly the avata 2 so this one will be a nice little indoor/outdoor fpv with the googles 3 and dji rc 3 wohoo..... Great overview 👍
I think you are a DJI employee. What you said is completely false and make no sense. The new hoverair pro max records at 8K30 and 4K120 and can fly much faster and has rear facing sensors.
@@Mr.N0.0nelol...I'm not a DJI employee! I was a huge fan of HoverAir, but this drone is far more capable and versatile, particularly as an FPV drone. Who needs 8k video?!
Unfortunately, not at this moment I’m hoping that changes with firmware. DJI tends to make older equipment compatible sometimes a month down the road after launch.
The image quality is good in my opinion for what it is there’s a lot of different thing opinions but I think for a $200 drone with this amount of tech packed into it. It’s a fantastic value and what it’s designed to do.
So if you are flying the neo without any controller and send it off to do a programmed flight; how do you get it to land if it is hovering 40 feet above you??
i make a lot of videos with my DJI Mini 4 Pro and Mavic 3 Pro where i'm using ActiveTrack walking through wooded areas (like shown in this video). however, without obstacle avoidance, i would definitely be having lots of crashes. i do not even try to make these videos with my DJI Mini 3 Pro and it has limited obstacle avoidance. how is the Neo following him through a wooded area without constantly crashing?
Trying to decide if I should buy the standalone version or the fly more combo. I think my needs are pretty basic. Just some straight forward fly over drone shots to set a scene. Do you think using the mobile app to steer would be easy enough?
I think so if you’re just capturing some basic shots, you don’t need a controller however, I do recommend getting some extra batteries. You may find one to be limiting.
Hey Shawn, @5:30 you made it sound like you can fly with the RC Motion 3 without the Goggles, is this true? I would like to try the Motion Controller, but not the Goggles. Thank you.
No, you do have to have it connected to the goggles mind you don’t have to wear the goggles but it does make it difficult to see where you’re going once you get a distance away from you. But the goggles are required in order to bind the motion 3 controller. Sorry if I worded it confusingly I tend to do that sometimes lol
To be honest I’d actually use this. I normally take my mavic air to job sites with me but it’s too much faffing around to set up and fly when I’d rather just record myself working
Certainly not the most capable drone, but definitely the most versatile! Will we be able to buy the batteries separately? Ideally I’d get just the drone and 1 extra battery (no controller). The only things that concern me is the wind resistance weighing only 135g, and the lack of a micro SD card slot, but we’ll see what DJI adds in future versions of the Neo
I am wondering if it can carry a gopro mini (or the one where fpv pilots use where they have to disassemble the gopro)? just to compensate the low quality camera of the neo?
People edit and fix up footage to look good like dji did. Real world footage is horrible out of this thing, it’s loud, no long fly time, need to buy separate controller to use it, no sdcard, etc… it’s a flop
Additional comment: I am seeing that stop & go motion (or slow & go) when tracking from behind. I hope they can get that smoother, its a challenge for sure to keep the target the same distance away, the drone is frantically calculating based on the size of the tracking target, I assume.
I agree with your assessment. Feel like it's the perfect vlogging drone, and it can capture unique shots. Shouldn't be heavily regulated as it's lighter and has limited range. Also think the price tag is reasonable. Audio could've been better as it sounded like you were underwater. Think that part of technology will continue to improve and get better. Overall, nice self-flying FPV drone that DJI has released, and expect more of them down the road.
Indeed, I think we’ll see a lot of refinements and improvements over the coming months. I was still using beta firmware and they’ve already added a bunch of new features this morning, but I didn’t have access to yet. DJI is really good for fine-tuning their products.
@@yuleowens6441 I think with how they’ve miniaturised the electronics for the Neo, it’s only a matter of time before they do give us a 50g whoop that will fly for 10mins , O4 HD etc:-)
![Lil Uzi Vert - We Good [Official Audio]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/DrSfBULAsek/mqdefault.jpg)
for $200 it looks stable, video and audio are decent. i'm sold
It’s the drone I dreamed of when I first started hearing about drones
Finally a drone that meet my simple needs 👏👏👏
As someone who is developing mobility issues, I really want this drone so I can experience hiking and short range excursions I wouldn't normally be able to.
Definitely would be a great drone for that
If possible I recommend an E-bike as well, I have an injury that affects my endurance & pain tolerance. With the E bike I’m able to enjoy photography / videography, beats popping pills wasting away on the couch.

The best, and most naturally informative review I've seen today. Thanks Shawn 👍
Wow, thanks!
Have been looking at drones for sometime, this has just come at the right time, its my birthday next month and my wife and daughter have asked me what I would like, now I know
Indeed, that would make a great birthday present
Best feeling ever!
The first simultaneous charger was for the Dji Spark! I had one😉
Indeed, that was point. I do appreciate the correction. That totally slipped my mind.
@@AirPhotography man why have you not posted some still examples??? would be cool to be able to download a couple to see..
That follow me is very impressive, great testing! Thanks
Thanks for watching
I didnt care when DJI introduced their drones back then not until this Neo is launched ❤ just ordered mine, it really took my interest for me its a cool little drone ❤❤
The audio capture feature is boss!!! I hope that comes to DJI’s future drones. Great review as always!!!
I honestly didn’t expect it to be priced at 209$ without the remote control. This is something I would consider buying for my home made videos.
ive ordered one, ideal for me after a stroke i can only use one hand mini avata 2 🙂
Definitely is a lot of fun. You’re gonna love it.
Hope you are doing well now. Praying for your health and happiness! 🙏🏼
Spark 2.0. I love this impressive little fella so much. Definitely buying it
I thought the same and bought Neo. However, Neo cannot deliver an image quality that Spark did 7 years ago (even that Spark shoot only 1080). So, you may want hold on to buy Neo.
Excellent, very professional overview - thanks
Thank you very much
Fantastic review, covered all the questions and concerns I had about it prior to purchase 😀 👍
Glad it was helpful!
Great review as always. Thanks for your hard work. We plan on getting one for our travel channel videos.
Great choice for that type of content, indeed. Still allows, you to enjoy the moments, but also capture memories at the same time
The DJI SPARK charged it's batteries all at once too. The NEO is SPARK 2.0. 😊
It sure is! Spark II
yes but spark was more agile and better video 🙂
I think it's the new tello 2.0
Best explanation, regular viewers from Nepal

Sweet! I just ordered! Can't wait to try it out in my MTB adventures
i dont think it has obstacle avoidance so wait to see other use it on trails im really unsure if it will work for that use case
@@spencer3423 yeah, it doesn’t have, I was thinking of using it in open spaces without trees around

It’s should be!
Great vid. I want Neo v2.
Great review. Can you use the motion controller by itself to fly the drone (no goggles)?
That would be extremely hard considering it uses a crosshair system you see in the googles to steer
No, you do need to have the goggles. They need to be paired together.
Good work Sean
Thanks 👍
Good video brother ❤
Thank you very much. I appreciate that.
Will it connect to the dji goggles v2? And what’s about the fpv remote 2 too did dji say in future they will update it or?
Unfortunately, not at this moment I’m hoping that changes with firmware. DJI tends to make older equipment compatible sometimes a month down the road after launch.
Nice review! 💪 what about picture quality? Codecs and rest of?
The image quality is good in my opinion for what it is there’s a lot of different thing opinions but I think for a $200 drone with this amount of tech packed into it. It’s a fantastic value and what it’s designed to do.
Can you have it follow Then go straight to manual controls from the phone??
Spot on drone
So if you are flying the neo without any controller and send it off to do a programmed flight; how do you get it to land if it is hovering 40 feet above you??
can you use the rc motion with just your phone?

@@AirPhotography Thanks 🙂. I was thinking this. It would be pretty affordable to buy the standalone and then a battery or two later.
Loud like hell
It’s actually one of their most quietest drones. It’s hard to gauge on a video. It’s only 79 dB that’s quieter than the air 3
The pitch is the problem, not desibels.
Well presented, can you demo it flying fpv and show its limitations?
Indeed, I do have that coming.
Wow cool now I'm gonna finally upgrade from my mavic pro 1 lol.
Question..the video quality on neo is not very good (feels like not 4k) or only on my laptop looks not good? thank you
Hey Shawn, @5:30 you made it sound like you can fly with the RC Motion 3 without the Goggles, is this true? I would like to try the Motion Controller, but not the Goggles. Thank you.

Would love to see you test with the RC 2 and an approximate safe range we can expect. Thanks.
Indeed, that is coming. I did a flight this morning with the RC2. Testing it out and also return to home testing.
To be honest I’d actually use this. I normally take my mavic air to job sites with me but it’s too much faffing around to set up and fly when I’d rather just record myself working
Indeed, great for situations like that. Grab a couple quick shots.
5:29 how can we take these type of shots? Could you please do the tutorial? So good and smooth?
Really the drone does most of it. But I am going to make some demonstration videos over the next week or so.
Question: Can you use this drone with just the motion controller but no goggles? or are both the goggles and motion controller required
Unfortunately, the motion controller has to be paired to the goggles in order to function
Certainly not the most capable drone, but definitely the most versatile! Will we be able to buy the batteries separately? Ideally I’d get just the drone and 1 extra battery (no controller). The only things that concern me is the wind resistance weighing only 135g, and the lack of a micro SD card slot, but we’ll see what DJI adds in future versions of the Neo

With reference to the microphone.
Can you use AirPods?
Great video by the way. You covered everything 👍🏻
You can use any microphone that can pair to your phone
@@AirPhotography thanks for the fast reply. 👍🏻
very interesting like from Pakistan ❤
I am wondering if it can carry a gopro mini (or the one where fpv pilots use where they have to disassemble the gopro)? just to compensate the low quality camera of the neo?
Maybe a deconstructed go3
Can I use manual / sport mode with the rc n3 controller or I need to buy the fpv remote ?
You can fly in sport mode just not manual
Just saw Potato Jet's video on this, yours is WAY better. The footage looks fluid! Great skills! You'd sell this drone better than him lol.
Honestly, I’m not a very skilled pilot. I fly a lot, but the credit goes to the drone not the pilot lol
Honestly you can tell gene is not that interested in tech RUclips videos anymore. Love him tho
People edit and fix up footage to look good like dji did. Real world footage is horrible out of this thing, it’s loud, no long fly time, need to buy separate controller to use it, no sdcard, etc… it’s a flop
Good job it’s quiet hey
Nice one
Thanks for watching
Additional comment: I am seeing that stop & go motion (or slow & go) when tracking from behind. I hope they can get that smoother, its a challenge for sure to keep the target the same distance away, the drone is frantically calculating based on the size of the tracking target, I assume.
Needs to be compatible with more dji goggle versions
I agree with your assessment. Feel like it's the perfect vlogging drone, and it can capture unique shots. Shouldn't be heavily regulated as it's lighter and has limited range. Also think the price tag is reasonable.
Audio could've been better as it sounded like you were underwater. Think that part of technology will continue to improve and get better. Overall, nice self-flying FPV drone that DJI has released, and expect more of them down the road.
Indeed, I think we’ll see a lot of refinements and improvements over the coming months. I was still using beta firmware and they’ve already added a bunch of new features this morning, but I didn’t have access to yet. DJI is really good for fine-tuning their products.
When it's doing the dronie or other smart moves, do you need to check before there is enough space since it does not have obstacle avoidance?
Yes, that is definitely a good idea. I have sent it up into a tree and I had to go and retrieve it lol
Was hoping for a tiny whoop from dji. That would be dope.
This really isn’t that much bigger than an 85mm whoop. Nowhere near as agile of course. 😊
@@ScowlerJase yah I'd like to see a dedicated whoop. With agility and DJI's intuitive software and tech. Particularly with their camera setup.
@@yuleowens6441 I think with how they’ve miniaturised the electronics for the Neo, it’s only a matter of time before they do give us a 50g whoop that will fly for 10mins , O4 HD etc:-)
Is the range when using the RC-N3 controller much farther similar to the Mini 4K?
It’s rated for 10 km with the 04 transmission system
Should I get this drone if I'm mainly looking to do FPV videos, or should I look for something else
It would definitely work for that situation, but the Avata 2 maybe a better choice if your primary passion is FPV it’s a little more powerful
