DJI Neo 2: The Return of the Innovative Follow-Me Camera Drone with Enhanced Creative Flight Options

DJI Neo 2: The Next Evolution in Camera Drones



DJI, the renowned leader in civilian drones and innovative camera technology, has officially launched the Neo 2. Weighing in at a mere 151 grams, this is their lightest and most compact drone to date, designed specifically for ease of use while delivering an impressive flying experience. With features like omnidirectional obstacle detection, hand-launch capabilities, and gesture control, the Neo 2 sets a new standard for beginner and experienced drone users alike.

Enhanced Features for a Creative Flight Experience


The Neo 2 comes equipped with an array of functionalities that enhance creativity and ease of operation. One of the standout features is its new onboard display, conveniently located next to the camera. This display clearly shows the selected shooting mode, ensuring users are always aware of their settings. Additionally, the drone can be launched from the palm of the user's hand by simply pointing it in their direction and pressing the start button. Even the landing process is simplified: the Neo 2's innovative “Return-to-Palm” function ensures it lands safely back on the user's hand.

Gesture Control Made Easy


Engaging with the Neo 2 feels intuitive thanks to its advanced gesture control system. Users can maneuver the drone using one or both hands, controlling its direction and altitude with simple hand movements. To ascend or descend, a user needs to raise or lower their palm towards the drone. By directing both palms towards the drone, it can also be commanded to move away or come closer. This easy functionality is accompanied by voice control options via a smartphone or Bluetooth headphones for hands-free operation. For those wanting a broader range, the Neo 2 can connect to the DJI RC-N3 remote control, allowing a maximum video transmission distance of up to 10 kilometers.

Capture Stunning Footage


The Neo 2 is equipped with a powerful 12-MP CMOS sensor with a 1/2-inch format and a f/2.2 aperture. This sophisticated hardware guarantees clear and noise-free recordings, stabilized by a new two-axis gimbal system. Along with DJI's ActiveTrack and SelfieShot features, obtaining high-quality, automated footage is easier than ever. Users can enjoy multiple intelligent shooting modes and 4K video recording at speeds up to 100 fps for captivating slow-motion effects, or vertical 2.7K videos. The Neo 2's enhanced tracking capabilities facilitate a quicker and more stable response when following subjects during fast-paced activities like running or cycling.

Advanced Tracking and Smart Modes


The innovative tracking system on the Neo 2 works seamlessly, following subjects at speeds of up to 12 m/s, ensuring that users can capture the perfect shot in any situation. The drone supports tracking in eight directions—including forwards, backwards, left, right, and four diagonal paths—offering diverse filming angles and making the recording process more dynamic. If needed, it can automatically switch to a tracking mode, keeping the subject in focus even in complex environments.

The new SelfieShot feature allows users to switch effortlessly between waist-up, full-body, and wide-angle shots, eliminating the need for a tripod or extra assistance. Whether at a birthday party, picnic, or family vacation, the Neo 2 crafts each shot with just a press of a button, making it an excellent companion for capturing special moments.

Safety First: Three-Layer Protection


DJI has prioritized safety with the Neo 2’s omnidirectional monocular vision system which, combined with forward-facing LiDAR and downward infrared sensors, can detect obstacles in real-time. This significantly enhances the safety of the flying experience, especially for newcomers. The drone now features improved hover and positioning capabilities, making flying in intricate surroundings—like indoors, near buildings, or over bodies of water or snow—less daunting.

Efficient Content Creation


With a wind resistance level of 5 and a maximum flight time of up to 19 minutes, the Neo 2 ensures maximum productivity in the air. It features 49GB of internal storage, capable of recording up to 105 minutes of 4K/60fps video or 241 minutes of 1080p/60fps video without needing to connect external data cables. Users can easily transfer footage to the DJI Fly app at speeds of up to 80 MB/s for smooth post-editing and sharing.
