Comparing today’s drones to the ones from just 10 short years ago isn’t quite like comparing a MacBook to the UNIVAC, but the differences are truly incredible. One of the best examples of how drones have become infinitesimally smaller, more user-friendly, and priced for everyone is the DJI Neo, a palm-sized 0. 3-pound wonder that’s a terrific early Black Friday deal at just $159 at Amazon. What the DJI Neo does best is something its ancient ancestors from 2015 could never even dream of doing AI-powered subject tracking that allows it to follow you and keep you in frame while you’re in motion, all while shooting 4K Ultra HD video and somehow not crashing into anything. Unlike its predecessors that were mainly geared toward big sweeping landscape shots and only after you mastered the art of flying it the Neo accomplishes all of its many fun photographic features while not even requiring a remote control. See at Amazon Long-Haul Flight The DJI Neo has 18 minutes of flight time per battery charge, which gives you ample time to have it follow and shoot amazingly stable 4K Ultra HD video of you or another subject, hover or circle for beautiful group photos, or go on fast acrobatic flights that result in amazing action videos. Getting started with the Neo could not be easier. Take it in your palm, press the mode button to select how you want to shoot (including Circle mode where the drone orbits you at a fixed altitude to shoot amazing 360-degree video, among other great action modes), and it takes off from your hand. When it’s done, it returns and lands in your hand. It has built-in guards for its four propellers to protect both your hands and the drone itself, and also to make indoor flight and shoots an option. Tag, Shoot, Enjoy The Neo is incredibly easy to control, and by many methods. Add the DJI Fly app to your smartphone and the Neo becomes a voice-controlled flyer that responds to spoken flight directives. The app can also be used as a remote, with virtual joysticks appearing on the screen and point-of-view images from the Neo’s camera. If you’re locked into the idea of a remote, DJI’s RC-N3 Remote Controller (sold separately) will do the trick. Our favorite potential method of flight control? DJI’s Goggles (either the 3 or the N3) combined with the RC Motion 3 or FPV Remote Controller 3. They’re all sold separately, and you’ll probably want to wait until you totally have the hang of flying the Neo, but the goggles are an incredible and immersive experience where you feel like you’re the one flying. The Neo is also able to transmit video from up to 10 kilometers, so there are virtually no limits on your flight range. The DJI Neo is an incredible holiday gift option thanks to its virtually limitless possibilities for creating amazing videos, its ease of use, and its even more accessible than usual price of just $159 during this Amazon pre-Black Friday Deal.
