Tested today the Follow mode by cellphone, during an MTB enduro session. My Garmin recorded 37 km/h max speed (29 km/h average speed) and the little boy followed almost perfectly. Great job DJI!
They rarely do. They are only listening to feedback now as it is a new product but once it becomes older, they wont care about it anymore. Some examples: mini 2 se sdk (older but still new), mini 4 pro sdk (this is their best mini model by the way!).
What about the controller compatibility? Thousands of ppl told them, they don't listen to us, they listen to moneyoptions (Still love their products, but yeah)
I would like to see a 360 photo option in quick shots . I see a lot of people that post these type of shots on multi media platforms and is what this drone is aimed for .
DC rainmaker did that test and he got 33 km/h so just over 20 mph and the direction tracking does it actually focus on your face for that because if you move your head slightly to the site then it’s going to think you’ve changed direction and move, isn’t it?
That’s quite the improvement then! I have found the new tracking positioning to be a bit better but rather aggressive in its movements I will try it midweek
Thanks for the info I just purchased and received the Neo a couple of days ago. It's my first drone so I'm crashing it LOTS and even that's fun when you're not doing any damage to it, it keeps going unscathed even a drop from 70ft straight down onto pavement, this unit makes me smile a lot! 🤩 Based on the fun I'm having with this I just ordered the beginner friendly mini 4K and I'll be getting that in a couple of days. So I'll have one for fun and one to learn how to do some photo work.
1. For the Phone App, I'd like DJI to add Camera settings & a RTH button (to match RC Mode) 2. I'd like them to add a 2K 60fps option (if possible!) for both Phone App & RC Mode 3. I'd like DJI to have an option to save setting changes across all formats e.g. If I select a camera setting in the RC options, I'd like it to ask if I want to apply the change to the Phone App too.
Completely agree with you. My first drone, and I it has taken my latest upload to another level with nearly 2000 views in 48 hours which is mega for me. I was cycling with it today at around 30KMH. The only thing for me in the next firmware is to improve the direction track so I can do 'piece to camera" at a decent speed.
Congratulations on your successful video! Thank you for feeding back the speeds achieved it’s very much appreciated! Keep up the work and keep growing :)
Had DJI products for a long time now and it's purely because of how they constantly update and improve their products. Every dji product I've owned has been improved in one way or another and they're the only manufacturer I know that proactively listen to their users!
I've found that the quality of voice recordings has improved significantly, there's as much less static, and the voice recording decibels don't need as much adjusting in post. All these things are great time savers for me. Thanks DJI.
thx great video. I need to get out there and re-test the follow mode, one question, can you change pure/natural settings within the app? or that only in RC mode?
Would like DJI to add "Camera" with timed shots, say 5 Sec & 10 Sec intervals to All the NEO preset shooting modes. At present think only the "Circle" mode offers timed photos. Only offering the "Video" Camera Mode is a bit limiting
@@GAVINHR true but its nice to have the RTH incase there is a connection problem between the phone and the drone itself. Rather than the drone hovering and emergency landing, its nice to have the RTH to have the drone fly back to where it taked off.
@ good point I use mine just for my TH-cam channel so I would think camera range. I do have a mini pro three but I rarely use it anymore because editing is to consuming for me personally.
Thank you for your content you do a good job. I’m curious do you or anyone know are the ambient sounds available with just the phone? I don’t use the RC or want to buy one just for that feature. I use the Neo for my TH-cam channel but definitely would like to get the ambient sounds other than my voice. I do plug a Hollyland Lark 1 into my iPhone 13.
Hi Gavin, great update, one thing that would be good would be the ability to change height and distance for the different modes on the drone without a phone or transmitter. This could be done by using the mode and power buttons in combination surely?
@flighttech4630 when this happened with me I just took a few steps towards it and connection came back, 50m is very close it wil be well within sight so hopefully not a major issue
One more thing that DJI should update through firmware is that DJI Neo should support DJI RC N1. That makes a huge difference. But it will not happen...
great video...I was debating a NEO but went with another Mini series because they use the same batteries. I gained an additional battery, drone and remote for only $299. If they offered a NEO with REMOTE package here in the USA, I might have bought the NEO instead. Sorry if I missed it, but was a RTH feature added on the NEO? I understand why not, but it would be nice, I know people have asked for RTH after watching several reviews.
Hi there! Thanks for watching, RTH is available when using the controller yes ! There is no RTH when using the mobile version because it only goes to 50m distance so should never really be needed. Sounds a good deal you got!
Yes Gavin, the icing on the cake would be some exposure control on phone app, especially in relation to the over sharpness on the actual footage. But some great features and improvements as you have covered. Now even more a great little drone in its own right and I could see myself using this in more scenarios than my Mini Pro 3 👍
Alot of creators are ignoring or avoiding the fact the NEO is afraid of the dark. When flying into a low light aria the drone freaks out and becomes uncontrollable. This can be tested by flying it through about a 10-foot gap that is considerably darker that ambient light. You can also test this by covering the bottom sensors of all your DJI drones including the NEO with some dark tape. All the other drones will still fly fine. The NEO on the other hand, will freak out and become uncontrollable.
From my perspective, I’m not ignoring the fact that it performs badly in the dark but it’s more I’m not speaking about it because at no point is this drone designed to be flown in the dark, if it doesn’t have light it won’t function properly and the sensor is too small to give any sort of usable footage in the dark, I can’t comment and critique the Neo for something I know fine well it’s not designed to do.
I've ordered the Googles, and I also had to order the motion controller. I just wish they they will make it compatible with the mini 4 pro because we are very limited with the neo if it's a windy day 😁👌👍 🇬🇧
They did their own thing with the goggles 3 release because the Goggles 3 was not MADE for the Neo specifically, it’s an extra option if you CHOOSE to buy it. But its not exclusively an accessory for just the Neo.
The one feature I'm really hoping for is a burst photo instead of video for each of the auto flight modes. Imagine if you could use dronie to take a selfie of a group!
@GAVINHR I contacted DJI to complain that early adopters (and most loyal customers) were being punished for their immediate support of new products - I got an email back offering a £30 voucher. I'll never buy a new product at launch again.
Ohhhhh that’s interesting!!!! Good question, overall the Fimi is a great choice, the Neo is superb and does more but the fimi will handle the wind better
I would almost certainly have bought the fpv package too when I bought my neo given the option. Now, as I understand it, I would need to buy the goggles PLUS one of the controllers when they become available?
Hahah now that would be cool! I think I’d need the air 3s for that, I have been thinking to do to teeside and get a couple of drones to follow a car drifting to see which does best
Hi Gavin, I felt that DJI should of released the Googles N3 at the launch of the NEO or at the very least, provided a small discount to customers that bought the NEO before the Googles N3 launch. Further, sources say that DJI is NOT planning Googles N3 compatibility for the Mini 4 nor the Air 3 series drones. Thanks for sharing your thoughts.✌️
Can’t agree more, as I mentioned I would have bought it with the FPV package if it was available, getting frustrating DJI releasing bundles the way they have after so many already have one is annoying, should be discounted so existing owners then take advantage at the same price point.
I agree, I’d bought the combo and then the RC-N3 extra as there are tones of them as new for 80€ or less in “second hand”. Now the only things they need to improve is the image quality and allow more settings (untouched profile as the image processing is too strong), even without a remote.
Still a brilliant review Gavin even though it’s a few days on I totally agree with you about the bundle issue. I have now ordered the N3 goggles and the motion controller more hard earned money spent shh keep it quiet don’t tell the wife.
Yep! kind of annoying that they launched it afterwards but hey ho, I think they should offer a discount so early buyers can pay the additional to pay the bundle price! haha secrets safe with me Sir!
Yeah tell me about it, I’ve crashed mine testing the follow up to the improved tracking positioning. It makes more of an sharp aggressive movement even more now
@GAVINHR Haha 😄 I think my comment was meant for a previous video I was watching before yours came up! ☺️ Actually the comment could work for the Neo also, it does feel like it needs a bit more Oomph! Although mine is on phone control only at the moment, so power is sadly lacking!😳😲
@@GAVINHRit's since long time an establishes fact that when Quicktransfer fails on iOS devices, turning Cellular data off in your fine iPhone or iPad is the solution ❤
Been waiting for your update review buddy. As it's the only one that counts 😊👍. We are still on the fly app 1.15.4 with android, so maybe it's just ios that have the 1.15.5 🤔
Thanks Graham that’s a huge compliment mate thank you ! I’m sure the android version will be launched soon, as you know I was away and just saw it was 1.15.5 :)
Besides camera control & saving when using it with phone (EV, sharpness, NR, color lock) I'd like improved indoor / low light control. As of now, when Neo gets too few satellites or ground is too dark / no structure, Neo goes crazy moving sidewards anywhere, no manual control anymore available and crashes. This is completely ridiculous, because its no longer working position "saving mechanism" becomes the main reason to makes it crash. DJI should change this to when the drone recognise these bad conditions (I mean gyro data is still working of course) to do nothing, let the drone hover in place, but give control back to the user to get the drone safely out of this situation.
There's no whatsoever ban on DJI drones in the US of A or elsewhere I can tell. However there's an upcoming bill with wordings about national security etc. They want to not grant FCC radio signal frequencies in the wifi spectrum used on US soil for FUTURE products. Revoking already approved personal Electronics would be unconstitutional and ultimately endeng up in massive suits at court of laws.😂
@@Teflonfilmare Semi true. They have banned several models using an unfair labor act of some type. I can’t remember the exact details, basically they’re accusing DJI of using “slave or child labor” on certain products I can’t remember the exact terminology you can Google it But try buying an Air 3S in America.
They haven’t banned everything, but they have banned several models based on some unfair labor law acts that were passed by the US government. I’m not clear on all the details but a lot of TH-camrs have made videos explaining it. You can Google it and understand it more clearly.
@@Teflonfilmare there is a ban in effect, but it’s based on some labor laws on certain models of DJI products if you look into it, you’ll see what’s going on. You can’t buy certain DJI products in America based on where they were manufactured. A good example would be the Air 3S.
With you there buddy, do I don’t I, will there be a good deal Black Friday or the run up to Christmas?? Will there be a Neo 2 coming out after Crimbo? Ive got the mini 2 to play around with so I can take my time, but it would be good to do some fpv lol 🤷♂️😵💫🤣🤣👍
Great vid as always Gavin! I got to 25mph on my bike and it still kept up with me, so pleased with that part of the update as well of the rest of it.👌👊
There is one bug I wish they'd fix. On my Macs, I can only access the internal storage on the Neo using a USB-C to USB-C cable. USB to USB-C will charge the Neo, but the storage will not mount. Other than that, I'm having a blast with this thing. It's my first drone and learning is fun, but terrifying sometimes.
Still no flat colour profile or any real colour adjustments to the rubbish quality footage it takes. You have to ask yourself what is the point of a camera drone if the footage is bad.
Maybe go through my channel where I have found and made videos about bugs and flaws in pretty much every DJI drone I’ve reviewed then you will see differently 👍 if I’m impressed with something that’s allowed to be expressed without being a “fan boy”
So you are reviewing something that you little about - namely FPV - there are a lot of people who have the goggles 3 and/or fly FPV regularly. This drone was designed as an FPV drone…..the phone is handy but really a gimmick…..by the way it is Neo not Nea…..a well.
The drone wasn't designed as a FPV drone whatsoever, it was designed to compete with the hover x1, I think if you are going to criticise the way somebody speaks you should brush up on your spelling first.
Dang they really cucked mini 4 pro users not allowing the new goggles to be used on it. Guess the mini 5 pro will probably have the compatibility. the footage with the neo is trash to use on youtube so ill probably wait for the next neo as the sensor is the worse sensor released by dji .
Tested today the Follow mode by cellphone, during an MTB enduro session. My Garmin recorded 37 km/h max speed (29 km/h average speed) and the little boy followed almost perfectly. Great job DJI!
The important point here being that DJI does listen to feedback...kudos!
Yep absolutely! That’s why I mentioned it at the beginning as fair play can’t argue at all
They rarely do. They are only listening to feedback now as it is a new product but once it becomes older, they wont care about it anymore. Some examples: mini 2 se sdk (older but still new), mini 4 pro sdk (this is their best mini model by the way!).

Both perfect combo you may find yourself flying your Neo more as it’s so much fun flying something that’s crash proof
I'm glad that I actually learned to fly an RC helicopter before this! I have a feeling this should be easier than the 💯 manual helicopter.
1. For the Phone App, I'd like DJI to add Camera settings & a RTH button (to match RC Mode)
2. I'd like them to add a 2K 60fps option (if possible!) for both Phone App & RC Mode

And easy to upgrade why they don't do it 😮😢?
Hi, just a quick question, will the Neo work with my controller from my mini 2se?
Hi there, unfortunately not, Only the DJI RC2, N2,N3
Need make able to put usb hub between controller and mobile, so that can also connect dji mic receiver to the mobile.
Had DJI products for a long time now and it's purely because of how they constantly update and improve their products. Every dji product I've owned has been improved in one way or another and they're the only manufacturer I know that proactively listen to their users!
I saw on another video, that it has exposure lock via app! is this correct?
Will the horizontal control work on a Samsung fold large screen do you know?
Just received mine. Using DJI 2 mic but audio is so terrible. Anyone with suggestion?
I've found that the quality of voice recordings has improved significantly, there's as much less static, and the voice recording decibels don't need as much adjusting in post.
All these things are great time savers for me.
Thanks DJI.

These are very welcome updates. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks my friend!

Question. I have upgraded with my IPHONE 16 pro but don’t see the box in the lower right corner to switch to horizontal mode. Any ideas?
u don't have the latest update than ..update thur the dji fly app
A great update video…. Thank you. Would love some WB and exposure controls via the app but ability to shoot in RAW would be a priority for me.
Is there a RTH while flying the Neo with your mobile phone?
There is not however when using the phone it only flys to 50m so shouldn’t be needed
@ the problem is if somehow the drone disconnect from your phone, it just hovers and it’s gonna be really hard to get it back.
Thanks for the answer

@Stevenchefjones thank you very kindly!
Please Gavin can you do a distance review on the goggle v3 .
Not one reviewer have done it yet

I've ordered the Googles, and I also had to order the motion controller. I just wish they they will make it compatible with the mini 4 pro because we are very limited with the neo if it's a windy day 😁👌👍 🇬🇧
100% agree mate, lots of Neo owners have another model, just make it compatible with the mini 4 pro / air 3 / air 3s. Hope you’re well mate
0:00 what did he say?
I don't have the NEO, but I think it's a great little drone, and I think you did an amazing job with this video.
Thanks for sharing as always. 👍👍👍
Thank you kindly! You should get one it is lots of fun!
Wish that fly more motion package would be avaliable here in the states,
They did their own thing with the goggles 3 release because the Goggles 3 was not MADE for the Neo specifically, it’s an extra option if you CHOOSE to buy it. But its not exclusively an accessory for just the Neo.
Hopefully they keep listening and make the Neo compatible with the Goggles 2. Just got them last year and they’re already obsolete in this case.
I just made the same mistake 😢
what about turle mode
That would be very welcome
I really hope that any Neo 2 has true vertical video and a foldable design.
The one feature I'm really hoping for is a burst photo instead of video for each of the auto flight modes. Imagine if you could use dronie to take a selfie of a group!
They still don't listen to the sharpness and NR settings request on the smartphone app and standalone.
I’m sure that will come, that’s what I mentioned at the end of the video
Will DJI let those who were early supporters of Neo be able to access the goggles discount?
I think that would be very popular
@GAVINHR I contacted DJI to complain that early adopters (and most loyal customers) were being punished for their immediate support of new products - I got an email back offering a £30 voucher. I'll never buy a new product at launch again.

@@jameslovell8682 I think they are already available at £229 for the goggles and £79 for the motion controller or £104 for the FPVRC
Correct, same total price of 700€ if you intended to get the RC-N3 (a good idea)
too so no "real" loss ;-)
Cheers Gav! The ultimate test would be you doing donuts in your car and the Neo tracking/following you 3rd person like Need for Speed :-D

I wish the turns were more smooth when following. Every video i see it makes so sharp turns.
Yeah tell me about it, I’ve crashed mine testing the follow up to the improved tracking positioning. It makes more of an sharp aggressive movement even more now
It will never turn smoothly the limit is with the camera gimbal

What it needs is RTH without a controller.
Car tracking would be nice
They need to fix the auto focus and contrast options on the phone app so that we can choose the settings we want.
Indeed that’s what I mentioned at the end of the video regarding exposure controls
it needs a better update allowing you to fly with low lighting indoors and better range signal using your phone
I would like them to add waypoints. That would be cool
They need to add motion 2 controller.

@@Teflonfilmare there is a ban in effect, but it’s based on some labor laws on certain models of DJI products if you look into it, you’ll see what’s going on. You can’t buy certain DJI products in America based on where they were manufactured. A good example would be the Air 3S.
Add ability for me to use my DJI mini 2 controller
nice work mate im still on the fence with the neo
With you there buddy, do I don’t I, will there be a good deal Black Friday or the run up to Christmas?? Will there be a Neo 2 coming out after Crimbo? Ive got the mini 2 to play around with so I can take my time, but it would be good to do some fpv lol 🤷♂️😵💫🤣🤣👍
@@pete2109 agreed im scared i will like it to much also ditch my mini 4 and mavic 3 lol
Mate, its so much fun! honestly you would enjoy it so much, ditch the mavic 3 haha
@@GAVINHR no way i love my mavic 3 lol giving my air2s to my stepson that's hard enough to do lol
@johnnymac26 when I look back at some of the best footage I’ve ever put together it came from the air 2s!
Nice one ❤
Great vid as always Gavin! I got to 25mph on my bike and it still kept up with me, so pleased with that part of the update as well of the rest of it.👌👊
Wow! 25mph that’s pretty incredible! Thank you for letting me know that!
How do we contact DJI to send feedback ?
Hi there, DJI actively check the forums and video comments and there is always contact DJI through the fly app :)
Thank you
There is one bug I wish they'd fix. On my Macs, I can only access the internal storage on the Neo using a USB-C to USB-C cable. USB to USB-C will charge the Neo, but the storage will not mount. Other than that, I'm having a blast with this thing. It's my first drone and learning is fun, but terrifying sometimes.
First-time viewer. Damn, I can't understand your accent, bro!
Subtitles ;)
After my first drone (mini2) and watching DJI launch the mini3 pro. I learned DJI works backwards when it comes to upgrades. 😅
Great video, I would RTH PLEASE
It's not far enough on phone for RTH. It has RTH on controller
Still no flat colour profile or any real colour adjustments to the rubbish quality footage it takes. You have to ask yourself what is the point of a camera drone if the footage is bad.
you really sound like a dji fan boy
Maybe go through my channel where I have found and made videos about bugs and flaws in pretty much every DJI drone I’ve reviewed then you will see differently 👍 if I’m impressed with something that’s allowed to be expressed without being a “fan boy”
Good review. Just don’t like the accent buy hey still good content.
😎
Fancy seeing you here 😂
@grossi46 ello mate 🥳

Hi chaps!
@GAVINHR How was your short break buddy?
Gave up trying to get the DJI Fly app on to my Pixel 6, so won't be buying one.
So you are reviewing something that you little about - namely FPV - there are a lot of people who have the goggles 3 and/or fly FPV regularly. This drone was designed as an FPV drone…..the phone is handy but really a gimmick…..by the way it is Neo not Nea…..a well.
The drone wasn't designed as a FPV drone whatsoever, it was designed to compete with the hover x1, I think if you are going to criticise the way somebody speaks you should brush up on your spelling first.
Dang they really cucked mini 4 pro users not allowing the new goggles to be used on it. Guess the mini 5 pro will probably have the compatibility. the footage with the neo is trash to use on youtube so ill probably wait for the next neo as the sensor is the worse sensor released by dji .
Is there a RTH while flying the Neo with your mobile phone?
No there is not, however with the phone it only will fly 50m distance so shouldn't be needed
