DJI Neo 2 (Drone Only) Summary
The next-generation DJI Neo 2 (Drone Only) improves on the popular original Neo with a host of updates that make flights easier, safer and allow you to capture even better aerial content more easily.
Neo 2 is DJI’s most compact camera drone [1], which boasts upgraded omnidirectional obstacle sensing [2] and features such as gesture control [3], SelfieShot and ActiveTrack [4].
These ensure that beginners as well as more advanced content creators can capture stunning content from above, with more creative ways to fly from a personal ‘follow-me camera drone,’ which is ready to capture your story.
Other key upgrades vs the original include 4K/60fps video, as well as 4K/100fps slow-motion mode, and the gimbal is now 2-axis rather than 1-axis, which results in smoother footage. The ActiveTrack system now includes a new Cycling option for improved subject tracking, while tracking speed has risen from 8 m/s to 12 m/s, which allows the drone to follow faster subjects with even greater accuracy.

Neo 2 also adds several creative modes, including SelfieShot, Dolly Zoom, MasterShots and Gesture Control, along with Return to Palm for safer hand landings, even if you’re a complete beginner.
Flight times have been increased to 19 minutes per Neo 2 Flight Battery, and the Wi-Fi transmission range has extended from 50m to 500m. DJI has also increased the internal storage to 49GB from 22GB, reducing the need for a microSD card during everyday flights.
Neo 2 has a newly added small display, a take-off button and a mode switch for more intuitive control. Despite all of these upgrades, the aircraft stills weighs just 151g, so you can bring it anywhere and capture all of your best moments.

DJI Neo 2 (Drone Only) in More Detail
Master Flight With Ease
DJI Neo 2 features an onboard display for quick mode selection. To launch, simply point it towards yourself and press the take-off button, and the drone will lift directly from your palm [5], after which you can enjoy automatic camera movements.
The new Return-to-Palm feature [3] precisely locates your hand, enabling the aircraft to return safely to land on your palm confidently, making flying easier than ever.
More Ways to Control, More Fun
Neo 2 can now follow you even without a remote controller, allowing you to capture moments completely hands-free, like you own personal follow me drone. You can still use the optional DJI RC-N3 or RC 2 for more traditional control, or put on DJI Goggles and use the Motion Controller for an immersive FPV experience [8].
Gesture Control [3]
You can now control Neo 2 by using simple hand movements [3]. Just raise or move your palm to guide it up, down or sideways, or use both hands for distance adjustment and framing. No controller is needed for angle changes or positioning, with this incredible system from DJI.

Voice Control via Mobile
Neo 2 supports voice control [9][10], so you can send flying commands by using your smartphone or Bluetooth earphones [11] with complete freedom, whether you’re cycling or on a run.
When connected to your phone, DJI’s Neo 2 drone can also capture audio and intelligently reduce noise, automatically filtering out any propeller noise from the background. This enables you to record video and audio content independently on your own.
Mobile App Control [10]
You can control Neo 2 directly in the DJI Fly app with virtual joysticks, which allows new pilots to get started instantly without needing to buy any sort of remote controller.
RC Control [12]
When connected to DJI RC-N3, Neo 2 supports up to 10 km of video transmission [13], which provides long-range control and traditional stick-based precision for professional-level content.
Motion Control [12]
If you add optional compatible goggles and the Motion Controller, Neo 2 supports Easy ACRO for an immersive FPV flight experience [8].

Smart Capture for Sharp Results
This generation drone adds ActiveTrack [4] and SelfieShot for automated, hands-free subject framing. With intelligent modes like MasterShots and Dolly Zoom, it can help you to create cinematic shots in a matter of seconds. Thanks to the 4K recording [7], it can also deliver sharp, vibrant footage, which is ready to share.
Faster, Smoother Tracking With ActiveTrack [4]
Enhanced tracking in Neo 2 enables smooth and stable following for sports and action sequences including running, cycling and similar outdoor activities. In open environments Neo 2 has also been upgraded so it can track at speeds of up to 12 m/s [14], enabling faster follow action cycling or running.
There’s also the newly added Omnidirectional obstacle sensing, [2] which improves safety from front and side accidents, allowing you to capture fast-moving action with much greater confidence that the aircraft will avoid obstacles.
Easy Moment Capture With SelfieShot
SelfieShot is a mode, which is able to automatically adjust the composition, switching between waist-up, full-body and long shots to capture solo or group moments entirely hands-free. Whether you’re recording birthdays, picnics or family gatherings, Neo 2 manoeuvres the camera intelligently to frame each scene with precision in selfie mode.

4K High-Quality Imaging [7]
A 12 MP 1/2-inch CMOS sensor and f/2.2 aperture are combined with a high-performance image processor to produce crisp, low-noise video. The camera drone will record in 4K/60fps, 4K/100fps slow motion [15] or 2.7K vertical video, all stabilised by a 2-axis gimbal.
- 4K video [7] records up to 4K/100fps slow motion [15] for detailed results
- Portrait optimisation enhances brightness, contrast and skin tone for natural, lifelike portraits
- 2.7K vertical shooting captures upright footage for social media
- Enhanced stabilisation the 2-axis gimbal and Electronic Image Stabilisation (EIS) [16] deliver smoother results in every situation
Smart Modes, Stunning Shots
Neo 2 includes creative modes such as Dolly Zoom, QuickShots and MasterShots, which opens up new ways to film unique perspectives with ease.
Dual Protection for Safer Flights
Omnidirectional obstacle sensing [2] and full-coverage propeller guards provide safer, more stable flights, with added protection.

Easy for Beginners
The omnidirectional monocular vision system, combined with forward-facing LiDAR and a downward infrared sensing system, detects obstacles in real time for safer, more confident flying. An integrated and replaceable Neo 2 Propeller Guard design simultaneously provides all-around protection, giving beginners greater peace of mind when operating the drone.
- Omnidirectional obstacle sensing [2] detects and avoids obstacles from the front and sides for safer tracking
- Versatile flight [6] offers improved hovering and positioning indoors, near buildings, over water or snow
- Full-coverage propeller guards provide protection while keeping the aircraft light and portable
Create More Easily
DJI’s Neo 2 has been upgraded and refined with features including:
- 49 GB of onboard memory supports extended 4K recording [7]
- Charge directly via USB-C or use a Two-Way Charging Hub, which charges up to three batteries at once [17]
- Transfer files at up to 80 MB/s [18] for quick and easy sharing
- Automatic Return to Home (RTH) after a flight is complete, with obstacle avoidance active during return for safer operation
- Up to 19 minutes flight time per charge [19], which is over 20 palm take-offs and landings [20]
- Hover steadily in winds up to 10.7 m/s for better performance outdoors

Our Verdict
Neo 2 is DJI’s smallest and lightest camera drone, primarily aimed at beginners and intermediate pilots. This updated version builds on the popularity of the original by improving virtually every aspect of the flying experience.
New omnidirectional obstacle sensing and forward-facing LiDAR make it much safer and stable, even when flying close to obstacles or indoors. It’s a significant upgrade for a drone of this size, and should provide beginners with the same sense of control as experienced creators who fly larger drones.
An upgraded 12 MP camera produces crisp 4K footage, and the 2-axis gimbal does a great job of keeping shots much more steady, especially in combination with faster flights and wind resistance.
The new 4K/100fps mode is ideal for slow-motion effects, while ActiveTrack now reacts faster and tracks more accurately. Gesture Control, Return to Palm, and SelfieShot turn quick moments into easy videos without even needing a controller, which makes Neo 2 enjoyable, safe and easy to use.
Numerous improvements like the onboard display, extended 19 minute battery life, and larger 49 GB internal storage make day-to-day content creation more enjoyable. At just 151 g, it’s still light enough to take anywhere, ready to capture family occasions, events or everyday short videos. This really is your personal follow-me camera drone for everyday storytelling, which is now smarter than ever.
