Absolutely unreal that you can adjust sharpness, Noise Reduction through Goggles 3. I have an Avata 2 - recent purchase, and I ordered THIS to learn Manual/Acro on instead of crashing my new Avata!

[@LukeMaximoBell1]

Nice! Definitely a good learning tool 🙌🏼 try fly with minimal wind

[@KainniaK]

That's a bad idea, the avata 2 is already underpowered but flies very good in wind. Just get 3 to 5 hours of flight time in sim and then go manual on the avata 2 with bank limits on. It's really not that hard.

[@LukeMaximoBell1]

Sim is the best way to practice 🙌🏼 I did about 50 hours in the sim before flying

[@verbalance5630]

NOT a good learning tool! Learning Tool for dTHAT Money?! Yeah for a DJI shill of course, he learned that you have to cashout if U had your lucky 15min fame Build(!) your Copter yourself, learn how electronics Work and pay 150$ And of course ITS a good idea to learn with that Drone...you Crash it and need a new

[@blueflame2532]

@@KainniaKthe avata is not limited power wise. It’s extremely power flying at 70mph and is far better than the neo as it has a better camera, more power, it’s faster, acts better as a normal camera drone in normal mode and is a better Fpv drone in Fpv mode. It’s really durable but all these things that make it better than any drone are the reason it is so expensive

[@bwoohk]

The size is so small and the picture quality is not bad. It is the first choice for beginners! Great

[@hotdogbrained]

Just to say, if you are buying off the dji website and want goggles with the drone, the bundle with the avata 2 is actually cheaper than the neo

[@MidSouthUTV]

I think they should have put the follow, chase, and auto modes into the Avata 2, because everything the Neo is doing, I would rather it would have the power, camera, speed, and size of the Avata 2. So basically the Avata 2 with the auto functions and the hand landing the Neo has going for it. Why have two drones when one could have done the job. I could actually see frame glitching/jumping in the side by side footage between the Avata 2 and Neo. The Avata 2 was so much smoother.

[@LukeMaximoBell1]

Yeh that would be cool. I reckon they could add that to the Avata 2 in firmware. The glitching was due to mismatched frame rates. The Neo can only do 30 FPS in 4K, and my video was done in 25 FPS so it’s kind of my fault. I would like DJI to add the 24 and 25 FPS options in the future firmware

[@stephanbergmann8373]

Neo is cheaper, can safely fly indoors, and if you‘re in the US: you can legally fly over people (unlike the Avata 2 or even the DJI Mini). Too bad the sensor is so small - the footage looks horrible when there‘s not perfect light conditions. 😢

[@lifextech]

Yess I hope dji avata 2 can do follow mode

[@gian-luca1108]

​@@LukeMaximoBell1It wasn't your fault. I've watched a couple of videos now and there are a lot of framejumps in every video. I guess it can't handle hard stabilization and recording at the same. Just something that I saw with every KZbinr.

[@ruekkart]

There's a thread in the DJI Avata 2 forum called "QuickShots via firmware update?" (I can't add the link) asking DJI to add these modes to the Avata 2. Maybe if we join to that petition, DJI might consider adding them via firmware.

[@hasanmuhammadyildirim]

Thanks for the review, really helpful. I do disagree with your point with the neo not being suitable as an entry level FPV drone: While it's true, that you still need to buy the expensive equipment, what scares a lot of people as a beginner FPV pilot is the fact that one bad mistake could cost you your drone, And for the Avata 2 that would be extremely expensive, while for the neo you "only" lose 200,- bucks.

[@LukeMaximoBell1]

That’s actually a very good point 🙌🏼 Better to learn on a Neo than an Avata 2

[@datatownboi06]

Agreed! You are literally describing me! 😂 I just ordered the drone and looking to purchase for the FPV. I was so afraid to spend 1 or 2K and I crash out or it lose it, but $200 bucks while sucks, isn't as bad

[@hylianchriss]

It's absolutely not a must have. It's a fun gimmick toy with some great ideas, but if you are any level of film maker, the video this drone produces isn't worth using. Neo is a hard skip for me, but I love the idea of a tiny essentially pocket size drone that takes off and lands on your palm, that you can just bring out whenever to follow you or do a quick orbit shot before you move on. But version 1 doesn't have a good enough sensor. If you're not into cinematic filmmaking, and just want a tiny starter fpv drone, Neo is great. Especially for kids

[@jron129]

@@jron129 neo is a good drone .if you are not that professional. i think it is a good deal

[@Scharrer23]

This is more a DJI question than specific about the neo. Does the drone automatically come back when the battery gets almost empty? does it "know" how much battery its need to travel the distance back? Or does it just drop out the sky when the battery is empty?

[@pujohardianto8485]

I have both, I think they complement each other

[@woodydroneson]

Nice views of Cape Town, the Neo definitely looks like a good addition to any drone bag for safety and ease of use for family use. I have a DJI Mini 2 and haven't found a need to update yet! This at the price is a worthy addition with its low end introduction to FPV it is a no brainer if you have some of the kit already.

[@digitalemotionfilms]

Yea it’s not bad….. but 6 years ago you had the Anafi that could literally just be thrown in the air and launched….. it could be hand caught…. And had all of the quick shots that the Neo have. It also had FPV support, and could fly at speeds of 65km an hour in Sport mode…. You could also charge its batteries with a powerbank…. Way before DJI invented dronie mode or follow me mode. The drone could even be programmed to fly a route mission on its own. To take things further you could use it for capturing aerial map mission mode using Pix4D. I have captured 7 hectares with mind and it does an amazing job. I still have 4 of them in service. Only thing the Neo can do is fly with no controller as it has AI

[@adwe6428]

Very nice video. I'm thinking of getting Neo as my first drone because of variety of modes it bring. I'll strat with normal mode, then I think over the time I'll invest in goggles and run it in FPV. I don't want invest thousand of us dollars and catch that I don't want it. I rather want to grow with the options one by one.

Quick question on the DJI Mic 2 - I assume you had it paired to your phone in order for the audio to be fixed?

Video is well choppy when it moves quick it's jumpy. They need to sort that

Can you use this with the Dji fps combo googles? the bigger head set?

[@LukeMaximoBell1]

No it’s only compatible with Goggles 3 and FPV controller 3

Can't wait for the NEO 2, since the quality from this one is bad, looks like an over sharpened 720p/1080p

[@LukeMaximoBell1]

Yeh I reckon Neo 2 will be epic!

[@SonGoku-dm4gr]

wow the place is so nice.. looks like you're in south Africa

[@LukeMaximoBell1]

Thanks! Yea it’s Cape Town, my home town.

video neo so choppy :( the quality is ok what I seen before. But changes from case to case. I think I will need to wait for Neo 2

[@LukeMaximoBell1]

This is because of the mismatched frame rates. Video was done in 25 FPS but Neo only shoots in 30 FPS. I will upload raw files to a google drive for download today

I think this drone will be popular will Realtors because they can just have it follow them as they walk around the house and they can control it using their phone or a rc n3

[@LukeMaximoBell1]

Yeh it could be! Will likely crash a few times though 😂

[@lowlightRN]

how does it compare with Hover air?

[@adventurefinder]

Can we recover corrupted files as well?
