DJI, the world leader in civilian drones and advanced camera technology, is excited to announce the launch of the DJI Neo, the latest innovation in its expanding range of content development tools. Designed specifically for content creators and non-drone experienced users, the DJI Neo allows them to experience the full charm of aerial photography from their very first drone.
DJI Neo introduces a truly “zero-threshold” drone (no remote controller needed), minimizing safety concerns, capable of automatic tracking and filming, and becoming the user’s “personal photographer.” At the same time, it offers various features, allowing users to experience the full charm of aerial photography from their very first drone. Equipped with intelligent Follow, QuickShots, stabilized 4K video recording and more, DJI Neo empowers you to soar through breathtaking scenery, capture joyful moments with friends, and enjoy a fresh perspective on everyday life.
DJI believes that aerial photography should be accessible to everyone. The DJI Neo is a compact drone designed for easy close-range flight, perfect for capturing and sharing everyday moments, from family outings to outdoor adventures.
Weighing in at a mere 135 grams, DJI Neo is the smallest and lightest drone ever created by DJI. Its compact design and featherweight construction make it incredibly portable, perfect for travelers, outdoor enthusiasts, and anyone who wants to capture stunning aerial footage on the go.
One of the most innovative features of DJI Neo is its palm-sized launch and landing capability. Unlike traditional drones that require a dedicated launch or landing area, Neo can take off and land directly from your hand, eliminating the need for a remote controller. This user-friendly design makes it accessible to users of all skill levels, from beginners to seasoned pilots.
Whether you’re cycling, skateboarding, or hiking, Neo keeps pace as your personal photographer and ensures you are always in the spotlight. Equipped with AI algorithms, Neo can follow the subject within the frame, so you can setup captivating follow shots with ease.
With just a flick of your finger, let DJI Neo automatically film for you. DJI Neo offers six intelligent shooting modes, providing a dynamic range of angles to elevate your creative footage. Six modes including Dronie, Circle, Spotlight, Rocket, Helix, and Boomerang; with no remote controller needed, the drone can complete the filming automatically.
- Dronie: The drone flies backward and ascends, with the camera locked on the subject, and records a video.
- Circle: The drone circles around the subject.
- Rocket: The drone ascends with the camera pointing downward.
- Spotlight: The drone rotates while keeping the object of interest within the frame
- Helix: The drone ascends and spirals around the subject.
Compact yet capable, DJI Neo flies with style. It not only supports controller-free aerial filming but can also be paired with the DJI Fly app, remote controllers, RC Motion, DJI Goggles, and more for increased flight and camera control.
“Hey Fly”- Wake the DJI Fly App with these words to enable voice control and pilot DJI Neo with spoken flight directives.
DJI Neo supports Wi-Fi connection to smartphones, eliminating the need for an additional remote controller. Control Neo using virtual joysticks on the DJI Fly app interface, with a control range of up to 50 meters. The app also allows you to set the tracking angle and distance, giving you the freedom to shoot from afar or up close as you please.
When paired with the DJI RC-N3, DJI Neo can achieve a maximum video transmission distance of 10 kilometers. For professional-quality shots, take manual control of the camera using the traditional RC control sticks.
DJI Neo can also be paired with DJI Goggles 3, RC Motion 3, or FPV Remote Controller 3, with a video transmission distance of up to 10 kilometers. With RC Motion 3, DJI Neo performs incredible stunts with just one button and navigates indoors like a pro, easily flying through tight spaces. The palm-sized DJI Neo is flexible and agile in the air, making it the perfect companion for mastering manual mode.
It supports multiple resolutions and frame rates for video recording and up to 4K/30fps RockSteady/HorizonBalancing videos that maintain clarity in both highlight and shadow areas, ensuring rich detail is visible.
DJI Neo is equipped with a single-axis mechanical gimbal, combined with RockSteady and HorizonBalancing stabilization, and it is capable of handling high-speed or large-amplitude flight, as well as up to Level-4 wind conditions. The stabilization algorithms significantly reduce overall image shakes and corrects horizon tilt within ±45°, for smooth and stable footage.
DJI Neo boasts a generous storage capacity, allowing you to record up to 40 minutes of high-quality 4K/30fps video or 55 minutes of 1080p/60fps video. So, whether you’re exploring a new destination or documenting a special occasion, you can capture all your memories without interruption.
After linking with the DJI Fly app, DJI Neo records audio through DJI Mic 2, which can be connected to your mobile phone via Bluetooth or directly through the phone’s built-in microphone. Forget about annoying propeller noise, as the DJI Fly app automatically removes it and combines your audio with your footage, giving your low-altitude vlogs a professional sound.
No data cable needed! DJI Neo’s seamless Wi-Fi connection allows your footage to transfer instantly to the DJI Fly app, so you can edit and share your videos without delay. This means you can capture, edit, and share your memories in no time.
DJI Neo’s impressive flight time of 18 minutes allows you to perform over 20 consecutive launches and landings from your palm, making it the perfect companion for capturing life’s fleeting moments. Despite its compact and sleek design, DJI Neo doesn’t compromise on flight duration, ensuring you have ample time to explore and document your surroundings.
DJI Neo offers convenient charging options to keep your drone ready for action. You can quickly charge the battery using a Type-C data cable, simply by connecting it to a power source. For even faster charging, the DJI Neo Two-Way Charging Hub allows you to simultaneously charge three batteries, ensuring your drone is always ready for your next adventure.
