DJI Neo + FPV - Another AMAZING Review!

[@Blueskyver]

Great video, as always, Steven. On the NEO for full acro, I changed the Max Rates to 830 for Roll / Pitch, and 400 for the Yaw, and left all other stock values unchanged. Now, it loops and rolls a lot better. It's really so fun flying.

[@Emuspaul]

I don't understand why reviewers don't mention the main reason for me, an Avata2 owner, would get the Neo; namely that it meets FAA requirements for flying over and around people. I often want to fly in a busy urban area or at an event. But I guess realistically, you fly other drones over people anyway....

[@ShermanKenB]

You can apply for a waiver for your avata 2 to fly over people.

[@zeejimi4044]

I agree : that is a good point, and the fact that you don’t need a drone license either makes the entry into drones, and fpv, hassle-free.

Nice review video about the Neo. I ordered mine on Sept 11th, and they said that, due to shortage of stock because this drone is too popular right now, it will only start shipping on October 10th !

If you live in the USA then every store in the USA will not have this item until October. People that want it earlier just buy it from Canada or other countries.

[@AndyL922]

I know there may not be a lot of people like me, but I ordered the Avata 2 and the Neo (and fpv controller 3) and I plan to use the Neo as a practice drone before I start risking my Avata 2. They should both be here on Thursday and I'm pretty excited about it :)

[@CAPTAINDRONE798]

They are both designed for first time drone pilots, so the odds that you will have any issues (using common sense not to fly into objects) all will be successful.

[@AndyL922]

@@CAPTAINDRONE798 Wooo-wee. I am glad I got the Neo to practice on. It's already covered in grass and tree stains. The goggles 3 and fpv controller 3 are great with it. I'm still not decided on the motion controller 3, but if I want to let a friend (with the TRUST license) fly it, that's definitely what I will give them first. Nobody is going to get to fly my Avata 2. :)

[@EJ3.16]

@ no way, I start no liking Dji for this kind of things.. ty for replying back..

[@FlyingFun.]

Thank you for showing us what is what with this, as a old school pilot I prefer sticks but the alternative controller is definitely interesting , I'd like to try it out or find out more about how exactly it works, does it allow you more control of your shots maybe? Head tracking looks useful for filming and probably quite fun to use with this little thing. The tune like you say is terrible , far too loose , I would much prefer the ability to tune it up a bit and have that on a switch or something, sometimes you just want to fly around and not bother with recording and the wobble in the goggles looks annoying and flying on a windy day ( most days here in yorkshire lol )would be terrible, i would happily accept a shorter battery life for a better tune, For recording though it obviously is fine to have the wobble as long as the recorded image is good and then get the longer flight times. I have lots of drones to fly of course but when I go out just take one at a time and this could be the one..

[@CAPTAINDRONE798]

Thanks! The motion controller is simply a very intuitive tool and when it comes to flying between or under objects it is actually better then joysticks at slow speeds. The NEO excels as being a SELFIE, VLOGGING, VACATION drone. For everything else it doesn’t excel but is simply fun.

[@JohnNeumannfotografie]

Nice flying! :) You can start immediately in from manual mode. Manual>2x start button press. That way you don't have to always have your trottle stick in the green area via the goggle. Landing, just the opposite, 2x start button and the motors stop. (Or use it also in a crash). Too bad there is no turttle mode on the Neo, which I have on the Avata 2 under C1 and 2x press. 1x press C1 is esc beeping. Sorry, you said that already at 4:58 :) I hadn't watched the whole video first.

[@quadroneld]

This was the review I was waiting for, enough information explained in a pleasant way, unfortunately it is currently very difficult to buy the DJI goggles 3 and DJI FPV controller in the country where I live.

[@benvanmil6761]

In addition to the manual switch on the FPV remote 3 I understand there are two additional settings to fly FPV in a better manual way.

[@CAPTAINDRONE798]

Yes, I did not show them to newbies as I don’t expect any newbies watching this video to buy the NEO to fly FPV in manual mode.

[@ChainsawFPV]

That's the info I wanted to kno. Thank you. 1 question, can the rates in manuel mode be adjusted, or are they locked at a set rate? If they can be adjusted, I think it would be more pleasant to fly.

[@CAPTAINDRONE798]

Yes, you can adjust them but it just makes everything worse because the NEO flight controller is more designed for beginners, GPS Assisted flights then true manual/acro FPV so adjusting anything is like putting lipstick on a pig.

The tricks are the same as you get on $50 toy drones. All drones can do them using the same inputs because they are tuned for them. In manual mode the pilot is doing the tricks with different parameters & the drone is not tuned to accept the pilots input and just flops around.

Audio question: Since this drone has tech that can cancel the sound of the drone props when using the phone app, I assume that the noise cancelling happens via the app on the phone. Do you know of any commercial drones with an onboard microphone that will record sounds in the environment in the drone's location and cancel the sound of the props? Thanks PS. I'm looking for something that will record sound in the same file as the video on the drone itself while cancelling the prop noise.

[@CAPTAINDRONE798]

I have never seen such a drone. Knowing audio as I do, I could not see it working as the noise of the props being so close to the mic would make other audio like a persons voice, not even be heard unless a few inches away.

Thanks for the video. Excellent as always. Ever since your Neo teaser you released a while back, I’ve been awaiting the release like a little kid. What sucks, is that I still can’t get one. For whatever reason, in Southern California, the Neo isn’t available until at least October 10. I’ve heard unofficially that it may be even longer than that. I first saw that date on Amazon and thought it was because they’re a middleman but when I went to the DJI store, I was told the same thing. I guess that will give me time to source the Goggles 3 and the two controllers. Thanks again for the video, I look forward to the next one.

[@CAPTAINDRONE798]

Avata 2 comes with LARGE over 250 gram drone, Goggles 3 and Motion 3. The benefit is that once you own the goggles you can then consider joining the real FPV hobby outside of DJI.

[@SidewaysGts]

Quick question if anyone knows: Can you fly the NEO in FPV using the FPV Controller 3, but in "n mode" (i believe thats the right term)? Ie not "full manual", but using the gps/satellite based system, where itll hold its own position. I know it can fly like this using the RC-Controller (either with the screen built in, or using your phone as the screen)- But wondering if you can use that control scheme, but with the FPV goggles instead of looking at a little screen in your hands (Im also aware of it being able to use the motion controller while in FPV, specifically wanting to use the fpv controller 3 in this mode)

[@CAPTAINDRONE798]

What is the range when flying with the motion controler?

[@CAPTAINDRONE798]

Not super far since the motion controller does not have an external antenna and most humans hold it low and close to the body and signals can’t pass through the human body. So if you fly it directly in front of the motion controller and have no obstacles in between you may get half a mile on a good day.

[@AshiqeRasool1]

Intriguing review! The Neo sounds like a fun little drone, especially for beginners with the motion controller. But the trade-off for flying in manual mode seems significant. Would you recommend this to someone just getting started with FPV, or should they stick with a different option?

I ride Icelandic horses, sometimes even at competitions, which means riding the horse on a oval track, and if recording videos when riding, I'll usually need someone who can stand within the center of the oval with a camcorder or smartphone that has a decent enough camera to record fast moving objects. But what if I wanted to use a drone to record, and at the same time don't want to break the bank with something's that costs thousands of dollars, what drone would you recommend to buy? Preferably something that can record in full HD or even 4K. Is the new DJI mini 4K capable of being positioned "sideways" and then do a follow me recording? Or are there perhaps other "cheap" drones that can do the job? Best regards, and keep up the good job with all the videos/reviews it's great inspiration 🙏

[@CAPTAINDRONE798]

You'd need the DJI MINI 4 PRO (not the cheap mini 4K). The reason you need the PRO is because the tracking is incredible (it won't lose you) and it can track from front, side, back (your choice), and it has obstacle avoidance to dodge anything while tracking from front or back (not so much the side tracking).

Flying with higher speed is better in FPV.

[@CAPTAINDRONE798]

You only have one choice of brand controller because this is a DJI product. I listed the compatible DJI Controllers under the first NEO video I made… I’m not sure if I did it under this one. They are all listed on the DJI website. When you fly FPV with FPV Goggles then your choices become limited to the DJI FPV REMOTE 3 (because the controller must connect to the goggles and not the drone).

[@CAPTAINDRONE798]

I have not noticed any jerkiness when filming in any of the video resolutions. What I showed in my goggles in this vid is the only movement one sees, compared to what the camera records. Ref your MANUAL MODE comment, think of it this way.... say I drone F1 Cars for a living and then I drone a HYUNDAI ACCENT SPORT... do you think I would notice a difference? And perhaps do you think I would say, as far as a race car goes, it's kinda weak. So, I have been flying drones for a living since 2013 and FPV drones since 2017 and I review plenty of FPV drones per year, so I'm very familiar in that realm as to how such drones should handle. When I fly something that is poor, then it is easily noticeable, and the NEO is your HYUNDAI ACCENT SPORT (in the FPV World) compared to an F1 (in the FPV World).

Sorry, I can’t help there as I only use pro editing software (the kind you edit a Hollywood movie together with). None of it is Free. I’m not at all familiar with the home free editing software.

@@CAPTAINDRONE798 ok then 👌 I appreciate you answering my question. I really enjoy watching your videos I'm 59 years old and disabled so flying a drone has been a god sent for keeping me interested in life and recording the adventure life brings from new perspectives. And following the advice that you have given me along the way has truly helped me with this adventure and I want to thank you. Thank you Scott You do more than entertain and recommend YOU bring happiness, true happiness into people's lives. I highly respect you. I think You're a very nice person.

[@NRG1991]

Thank you for the Video! It’s Not the best fpv drone but if you get use to it, it’s cool that you have the possibibility to fly it smooth manually 😊 our fpv drones will also land at 0% Batterie level without warning 😅😅

[@skairkrow9800]

very informative and fun video.

[@CAPTAINDRONE798]

Thanks, I'm glad you enjoyed it.

So, Canada gets these drones without having to wait till mid October?

[@CAPTAINDRONE798]

Yes, we had them on launch day (stocked in our local stores).

[@_gelon]

BestBuy Canada was the first place in the world in which someone spotted the Neo, lol. Not for sale, tho.

[@greenscout4455]

the video not being sponsored is good because we would get the full and honest review

[@mattalford3932]

My left stick on my fpv controller 3 won't stay all the way down. It's will move up slightly lol

Hardly anybody seems to address the geofencing

@@CAPTAINDRONE798 Was kinda a general remark; I did say 'hardly anybody' ;-) Many a reviewer totally ignore the geofencing tho.

Adjust your rates for the remote and it flys great in manual, also true for avata and avata 2, watch some videos.

[@CAPTAINDRONE798]

Unfortunately the only people who ever say that only fly DJI drones and have not been in the FPV Drone hobby for very long. The rest of us have tried it... it is like putting lipstick on a pig. When you start with an unresponsive flight controller, you just get turn it into gold. You won't ever find any KZbin vids of a PROP FPV PILOT adjusting the rates and then telling everyone "this drone is amazing now and better then other FPV Drones!"

[@dnickens20115]

Is it possible to fly it with the Integra goggles & mc 2 ?

[@CAPTAINDRONE798]

Not at this time

How Long the distance of drone..just asking sir...tnx Always watching your video sir...

[@CAPTAINDRONE798]

10 km depending on interference… but you’ll never achieve that because the battery is too small and you’ll run out of power.

[@azmanosman7014]

Hello captain drone thanks for the information, i like your video reviews..

[@jasonthompson6809]

The title of the video says it all. Thanks again Steve....... no tractor man today 😅

[@CAPTAINDRONE798]

I must have flown on his day off

[@tahayt6142]

Hope some one will make motor upgrades like they did for the dji avata to make it handle better and more power

[@CAPTAINDRONE798]

Just wait for the NEO PRO coming out in six months.

[@Banks_FPV]

Great showcase on the different controllers for fpv but i have one question how does it flip so well with the "easy" acro but not when you were in full manual ? is that down to pilot skill or the rates settings ? as it clearly flipped pretty well while in the easy acro mode ? either way cool video !

[@CAPTAINDRONE798]

You can buy a $30 drone (many that I have reviewed) that do the same flips as the DJI drone. This is because it is automatic and at the limits of the drone. In manual mode you need a high end flight controller and super powerful motors. The NEO does not have this so no mater what the tuning is it just can’t react to an FPV Pilots inputs, thus it becomes a sloppy FPV Drone in manual mode.

[@Banks_FPV]

@@CAPTAINDRONE798 (update) i got my daughter one and managed to flip and roll even dive, maybe because i use higher rates... i've uploaded a short its still not amazing but alot better than i expected after watching this considering its not made for acro 😂 was actually pretty fun, its not very good at anything but can do everything neo seems to be a jack of all trades master of none haha
