DJI Neo in More Detail
Palm Takeoff and Landing
Capture incredible content without the need for a remote controller*! Simply press the mode button on the Neo, select the desired shooting mode, and the drone automatically does the rest, capturing impressive footage after taking off from your palm!
When using palm takeoff and landing it is important to adhere to these guidelines: operate in a windless environment as much as possible; extend your palm horizontally and keep it still, avoiding finger contact with the propellers to prevent injury; do not attempt to grab the drone while it is flying.
*Some shooting modes require connecting DJI Neo to a smartphone via Wi-Fi and enabling them in the DJI Fly app.
Advanced AI Subject Tracking
Neo acts as your personal photographer, keeping you in the spotlight whether you’re cycling, skateboarding, or hiking. With advanced AI algorithms, it effortlessly tracks and follows you within the frame, allowing you to capture stunning follow shots with ease.
Intelligent QuickShots shooting modes
The DJI Neo includes six intelligent shooting modes to capture dynamic content with just a flick of your finger.
- Dronie – The aircraft flies backward and ascends, with the camera locked on the subject, and records a video
- Circle – The aircraft circles around the subject
- Rocket – The aircraft ascends with the camera pointing downward
- Spotlight – Controls the aircraft manually while the camera remains locked on the subject
- Helix – The aircraft ascends and spirals around the subject
- Boomerang – The aircraft flies around the subject in an oval path, ascending as it flies away from its starting point and descending as it flies back
Multiple control options including controller-free
The drone supports controller-free aerial filming and can also be paired with the DJI Fly app, remote controllers, RC Motion, DJI Goggles, and more, offering enhanced flight and camera control.
When Neo is connected to a smartphone via Wi-Fi you can use Voice Control with commands like “Hey Fly” to pilot the drone with spoken flight directives.
DJI Fly app Control
The need for a remote controller is eliminated thanks to support for Wi-Fi connection to smartphones. This enables control of the drone using virtual joysticks on the DJI Fly app interface, with a control range of up to 50 metres*. The app also gives you the freedom to shoot from afar or up close as you please, by allowing you to set the tracking angle and distance.
*Tested in an outdoor open environment free of interference. The video transmission distance varies by operating environment.
DJI RC Control
When using the optional DJI RC-N3 Neo can achieve a maximum video transmission distance of 10 kilometres*. Flexibly operate the camera using traditional RC control sticks when you need to capture professional level shots.
* The 10km video transmission distance can only be achieved with FCC compliance. The data was measured in an unobstructed outdoor environment free of interference and showed the farthest communication range for one-way, non-return flights. The maximum video transmission distance in the actual flight scenarios is limited by the drone's maximum flight distance. Refer to the actual use.
Immersive Motion Control
Enjoy motion control, immersive FPV flights and hone your piloting skills in manual mode with support for:
Uncompromising Image Quality
A 1/2-inch image sensor is combined with powerful stabilisation algorithms to capture 12MP stills and produce stabilised 4K UHD videos* straight out of the drone camera.
Multiple resolutions and frame rates are supported at up to 4K/30fps* harnessing RockSteady/HorizonBalancing videos that maintain clarity in highlight and shadow areas, ensuring rich detail is visible in the end movie.
* 4K/30fps video recording is available under all control methods of DJI Neo. Except for motion control, 4K/30fps videos with HorizonBalancing are supported in all other control methods. When DJI Neo is paired with DJI Goggles 3 and DJI RC Motion 3, it can record 16:9 4K/30fps videos with RockSteady/HorizonBalancing or record 4:3 4K/30fps videos with no stabilisation.
Rock-steady stabilisation features
The DJI Neo features a single-axis mechanical gimbal, which is combined with RockSteady and HorizonBalancing stabilisation. This enables the drone to handle high-speed or large-amplitude flights, as well as up to Level-4 wind conditions.
Smooth and stable footage is generated by stabilisation algorithms, which significantly reduce overall image shake and correct horizon tilt within ±45°*.
* When controlling the drone with the DJI Fly app or a standard remote controller, RockSteady and HorizonBalancing are enabled simultaneously and cannot be turned off. When controlling with DJI Goggles plus RC Motion or the FPV Remote Controller, you can choose to enable RockSteady, HorizonBalancing, or turn off stabilisation. When controlling the drone without a remote controller or with the DJI Fly app, the HorizonBalancing angle is ±30°. When controlling the drone with a remote controller or using motion control, the HorizonBalancing angle is ±45°.
22GB Internal Storage
Internal Storage of 22GB allow up to 40 minutes of 4K/30fps video or 55 minutes of 1080p/60fps to be stored.
Record Audio with the DJI Fly App
Once Neo is connected to your smartphone, tap the audio recording button on the DJI Fly app to start capturing sound through your phone’s built-in microphone. The app automatically reduces propeller noise and syncs the audio with your footage, ensuring clear sound quality even if you are filming low-angle vlogs.
No data cables needed!
After connecting to your phone via Wi-Fi, footage filmed by DJI Neo can be rapidly transferred to the DJI Fly app. Transfer instantly after filming, making post-production and sharing smoother.
Easy Editing
The DJI Fly app offers a huge selection of easy-to-use templates and sound effects for quick and professional-looking results. This enables you to create and share videos efficiently without needing to download any footage for editing, while also saving storage space on your phone.
You can even add ‘Glamour Effects’ ensuring you always look your best by simply importing footage into the DJI Fly app to get started.
Safe and Stable flights
DJI Neo includes a range of features for stable and secure flights, including an infrared and monocular vision positioning system, which allows the drone to hover steadily, maintaining stability even in wind conditions up to Level 4.
18-Min flight times and RTH (Return to Home)
With a fully charged battery and default settings using Circle, Rocket, and Dronie modes, DJI Neo can perform over 20 excursions to and from your palm in succession with its 18 minutes of flight time. Once you’ve had your fill during a flight you can activate the Return to Home (RTH) function, and watch DJI Neo automatically navigate back to its takeoff point.
Convenient Direct Charging
Once connected to a power source using a Type-C data cable, the aircraft can be conveniently charged for quick power replenishment. For more demanding battery charging, the optional Neo Two-Way Charging Hub can charge three batteries simultaneously*, increasing charging speed and efficiency.
* The number of batteries that can be charged simultaneously depends on the power of the charger used. Using a charger of more than 45 W allows for charging three batteries at once while using a charger of less than 45 W can only charge two batteries simultaneously. Refer to the charging protocols supported by the charger.

Our Verdict
DJI’s Neo is perfect for complete beginners as well as more experienced pilots. It comes with the aircraft, an intelligent flight battery, propeller guards and more, enabling vloggers to dive into aerial content easily and affordably. It’s also super small and lightweight, which means vlogging from virtually anywhere is eminently possible, without the size and weight of a larger drone.
Despite its compact size and portability Neo captures super-stabilised 4K video at 30fps, 60fps in 1080p and up to 12MP stills. The aircraft includes six QuickShots modes, with impressive Ai subject tracking that will keep you in the frame during pre-defined video sequences.
Battery life is good for up to 20 excursions to and from the palm of your hand in the right conditions, and you can buy additional flight batteries or opt for the DJI Neo Fly More Combo, which includes three batteries, a multi-charger and more from the outset.
There are multiple options for controlling the aircraft, from completely controller-free, to immersive manual flights using DJI Goggles 3, DJI RC Motion 3 or the FPV Remote Controller 3. This leaves it to you to decide how far you want to take your piloting experience, from beginner through to advanced.
If you’ve been holding off getting into aerial content creation the DJI Neo could be the perfect starting point to take your vlogs to new heights!
