DJI Compact Drone
First Looks at the DJI Neo
Information about the new compact drone DJI Neo has appeared on the network. The first data about it was discovered in post on Platform X (formerly Twitter), where the registration label of the US Federal Communications Commission (FCC) was presented. It shows the model number DN1A0626 and the battery capacity is 1435 mAh or 10.5 Wh.
Video of DJI Neo in flight
Another user X posted a video allegedly showing a DJI Neo in the air. Judging by the footage, the drone is compact in size and equipped with protection for the propellers. The lack of an FPV headset in the video suggests that the Neo may be aimed at simple aerial photography, similar to the HoverAir X1.
Estimated characteristics
Drone expert Weilian Zhang, based on battery data, suggests that the DJI Neo could weigh around 169g and have a flight time of around 15 minutes.
Price and equipment
Despite the absence of an official announcement from DJI, information about the cost of the Fly More kit has already appeared in the Walmart store Combo for DJI Neo. It includes additional batteries, a charging hub, and a carrying case for $329. For comparison, a similar set, the HoverAir X1, costs $399.

Wow, looks like DJI is cooking up something interesting! 🚁 Neo looks so compact. I wonder how convenient it will be for travel?
Hans
Yes, Sophia! I'm intrigued too. A 15 minute flight is not too bad for such a baby. Although the HoverAir X1 is already on the market, competition from DJI could bring interesting innovations.
Marie
Propeller protection is awesome! 👍 Less chance of breaking something. And the price of $329 for the Fly More Combo seems quite reasonable, especially if the quality is at DJI levels.
Antonio
I agree with Marie about the price. Although it is a little worrying that there is no FPV. Hopefully they'll make up for it with some cool autonomous flight features. 🤔
Olga
But it seems to me that the lack of FPV is a plus for beginners. It will be easier to master. I wonder what camera quality it will have? DJI usually doesn't disappoint in this regard.
Viktor
Ugh, these toys again. Previously, people lived normally without any drones, and nothing. Now everyone considers himself a director. Noise, flickering, no peace.
Hans
Viktor, don't be such a grump! 😄 Drones open up new opportunities for creativity and exploration. Imagine what beautiful shots you can take from a bird's eye view!
Sophia
Exactly, Hans! This compact drone can also be taken on hikes or trips. Can you imagine what stunning landscapes you can capture? 😍 I’m already dreaming about this!
