my problem with the DJI Neo is when i try add it on the cart it says im low in budget 😢

[ricarmig]

You’re completely right!!! Without RTH I won’t buy one for sure! With my previous Air, I had many situations where the RTH saved the drone and me! If I’m filming a beach and I lose contact, bye bye drone. Or above a car… bye bye insurance

[technickr]

She only gets 30m max from you, therefor you don't need rth, do you? 5m + in the right direction and your signal is back.

[IMRROcom]

I asked that same question, and all I got was comments like you need to learn to fly better etc. Sorry, the object of NEO is to palm it, hit the mode button, let it do it's thing and come back. How do you wave it in an extra foot if it is 2 foot further out over a cliff or 2 foot off the end of a pier over water etc. They should have some sort of hand jester that it looks for to come back to your, like waiving your hands above your head like an inflatable mad man at a used car lot etc. Or let you yell oat it etc.

[AndyTEire]

Yep.... I lost my Neo 2 days after purchase. Lost signal and auto landed into the sea 10 feet in front of me. Great drone but controlerless flight needs care.

Just wondering really if it would be better getting the Mini 2 SE, not much in it £ for £ but a lot better drone.

[MrPlaneTalk]

Great warning. Good to know. Since it does have GPS, one would think DJI would have the RTH no matter what mode you’re flying in. My guess is they’ll add it…thanks to you pointing this out. Great job Darren.

[cassielakin]

i got this drone for close up fun and just playing with my phone. will keep an eye on the battery level. anything far i will stick with my mini 4k.

[dbhtubes]

I went out this morning - it was 6 degrees and it refused to fly saying it was too cold!

[dereksmith]

You the best, always telling what’s great and what needs improving. This is why you the best

[eganders]

If RTH is available with the controller, what if you set the RTH up with it AND shouldn't it be able to RTH in all control modes after it is set up on the controller? I say that because the Neo has the RTH imbedded in it (it Returns to Home if signal is lost with the controller -- saying it has the RTH embedded in the drone firmware)

[Sir-Kay]

It's amazing you haven't got to review the much anticipated Hover Air Pro/Pro max, not even a single word about it.

[Bada_Boom]

Good video. Basically, know its limits with whatever “controller” you’re using and how far you’re going. As it is with the phone, it’s not made to do what a mini can. That said, for the money, it still seems like a good buy.

[pjhunton]

Agreed with the points you bring up, I personally wont fly it more than 20m with just a phone, anything above that I use the controller.

[renebeier]

Is it possible to start flying with the app, then do a take over with the controller mid flight?

[pishedbloke]

Been using mine for a week now on flat dry land. I didn't get the fly more combo, just the drone and 1 battery, and I had the exact same concerns you just mentioned. If I were to do a Dronie from a bridge or cliff for example, I think it would be a good idea to actually stand a few meters away from the edge during start up, just so I know I can reach out my hand safely to land the drone when it gets back.

[RonaldBrown]

This is something to keep in mind with the Neo. Thanks for sharing.

[obsidiansands]

The RTH absent on the phone app is worrying, one hopes that they can fix that with a firmware update either on the app or in the drone's AI itself. From what I can see, the only way to "manually" trigger a RTH facsimile is to hold up your hand to the drone and it will fly itself back to you as long as you keep in mind the actual flight time so as to be on top of the battery drain.

[suaikx]

We can use Remote Control like RC-N3 to reconnect and pull it back.

[dmotormaker]

Can you use goggles 3 and rc2 with the neo ?
