DJI Neo Drone: The Lightest and Most Affordable 4K-Ready Drone Leaked

New leaks suggest DJI's upcoming Neo drone could be the lightest and most affordable full-featured 4K-ready drone on the market.

Pricing and Availability

According to a leaked Walmart listing, the DJI Neo Fly More Combo could be priced at just $329. The standalone drone is expected to be even cheaper, considering the Fly More Combo typically includes additional batteries, a charging hub, and a shoulder bag.

Key Features and Specifications

• 4K Video Capability: The DJI Neo will support 4K video recording, making it a powerful tool for aerial videography.
• Lightweight Design: Weighing only 135 grams (0.3 pounds), it will be DJI's lightest budget drone to date, surpassing the DJI Mini SE (249 grams) and the older DJI Spark (300 grams).
• Indoor Safety: The design includes propeller guards for safer indoor use.
• User-Friendly Interface: Equipped with a push button on-drone interface for cycling through flight modes, similar to the HoverAir X1.
• Multiple Control Options: The Fly More kit includes a joystick-style pro controller. The drone can also take off and land from your palm, with AI subject tracking allowing for hands-free operation.

Design and Usability

The Neo's design resembles DJI’s Avata FPV drones and does not fold down like the Mini lineup. This design choice hints at potential compatibility with Avata-compatible headsets, offering an immersive piloting experience from the drone’s perspective.

Release Date Speculation

While there's no official release date, well-known leaker Jasper Ellens suggests the DJI Neo could be available in a matter of weeks if the leaked photos are genuine.

Stay tuned for more updates on the DJI Neo, which promises to be an exciting addition to DJI's lineup of drones, combining affordability, lightweight design, and advanced features for both amateur and professional drone enthusiasts.
