Top man and glad you enjoyed it!

I have both drones and I think the neo is far superior to the X1. Neo can do FPV which is amazing fun, Neo can use a controller and fly far distances at height, neo battery lasts longer and has battery discharge feature (X1 charger does not), neo tracks faster (~30kmph now) and has much improved tracking with latest firmware update. The neo mobile app is so much better in every way, fullscreen manual mode to name one. I think the neo is more robust too. I love the X1 but neo is a lot better.

That was a very nice comparison. Thanks

You're welcome!

Fun and informative

[@oddwright]

Love it, thanks for letting me know! What do you think of the Neo?

[@LarryTheDrone]

@@oddwrightI think it’s good, but there’s room for improvement

[@ChiliJ]

I'm guessing the tracking can be improved by software updates, but the video quality not likely without updating the hardware.

[@benjabocazvillaman9379]

DJI Neo can actually side track

[@CB-dy2pc]

I just bought the x1 but it was such a difficulty decision as every single youtuber does not do a direct comparison they all just go by the pricing and say the neo wins, there was only one other youtuber I saw with the same opinion as you and I myself from other comparisons noticed the tracking was way better on the x1, This is the other youtuber I was referring to kzbin.info/www/bejne/joW8kqqwnMZmma8&lc=UgymM71JTpDemZIyJDV4AaABAg.ABA7-Au4cDpABBPdnhRjTO

Wow, that was disappointing. I would have hoped the Neo would follow better. I’m still going to get the Neo though as I want to be able to use it as a FPV drone as well.

[@oddwright]

Yeah I was expecting it to AT LEAST be as good as the Hover Air. That’s a pretty good feature for them to include on such a cheap drone. I forgot about that so I may make a video using it

[@lazerdrone6812]

Tbh I think that it did follow better it’s just that it lost track of the object because it was being more careful and trying to avoid the other drone which would be more useful for like indoors or something but on a field there don’t need to be no obstacles to avoid

[@lazerdrone6812]

In addition the Dji drone doesn’t just keep you in frame when following you it also attempts to follow your path which helps it in tight spaces as it has no sensors for obstacle avoidance

[@mattremer9507]

Great video! Does the Hovair have ability to record audio using your phone or pairing a mike to your phone and the dji neo I know syncs up the video and audio automatically when you import it.

[@adamsavo]

Great comparison. DJI neo didnt deliver at all. A big disapointment.

[@oddwright]

Thank you sir and I agree. Without a competitor, DJI Neo is a decent product but in comparison, it sucks

[@lazerdrone6812]

You say that but it was not just a stand alone drone like the hover x1 it was also designed to be like a tiny whoop which is impressive for its power at its size and weight with a good camera and stable transmission at this price

[@oddwright]

You make a good point and I didn’t take that into consideration. I’ll have to test the fpv on it and report back
