DJI Neo Full Review. (Almost) Perfect Self Flying Budget Drone

The DJI Neo is a tiny 4K camera drone which can take off and land from the palm of your hand: https://click.dji.com/AJRWvQGq2Mryqsw.... It has a number of autonomous flight modes, with intelligent subject tracking that can easily create so-called Smart Snaps.

For example use the Mode button to choose Follow, then press and hold the same button with the drone on your outstretched arm and the drone will lock onto your face, take off and track you as you walk, run or cycle. When you’re done, turn around, hold out your hand beneath the drone and it’ll land.

You can also control the drone with DJI’s mobile app, an optional controller or even FPV goggles. Which could make it the perfect drone for the complete beginner and more experienced users.

I’ll run through all its features and thoroughly test its capabilities to see if this drone lives up to all the hype.
