DJI Neo 2 Debuts with Smarter Tracking and Palm Control

The DJI Neo 2 lands as a lightweight follow-me camera drone built for beginners who want smarter controls, safer flight, and simpler ways to capture moments. At only 151g, this tiny flyer introduces omnidirectional obstacle sensing and intuitive palm-based operation, giving users effortless control even without a remote controller. As a personal travel and outdoor companion, Neo 2 focuses on delivering hands-free shooting with upgraded tracking, 4K recording, and creative flight modes.

Compact Build with Display, Palm Take-Off, and Return-to-Palm

A small but practical display sits beside the camera, showing the current shooting mode at a glance. The drone can lift off directly from the palm by pointing it toward yourself and pressing the take-off button, ideal for quick captures outdoors. After flying, its new Return-to-Palm ability guides Neo 2 back to the user’s hand with precision, simplifying landings during trips, hikes, or crowded places. Together, these upgrades make Neo 2 a beginner-friendly drone that behaves almost like an autonomous camera assistant.

Gesture, Voice, and Multi-Method Control for Flexible Flying

Neo 2 enhances its unique Gesture Control system, enabling horizontal movement, altitude changes, and push-in/pull-out shots just by raising one or both palms. For moments when your hands are busy, built-in voice commands via phone or Bluetooth headphones allow the drone to receive instructions during cycling, running, or other activities. Users seeking greater range can still pair Neo 2 with the RC-N3 remote controller, unlocking up to 10 km video transmission. It also works with motion controllers and FPV goggles for an immersive first-person flying experience.

4K Recording, ActiveTrack Upgrades, and New SelfieShot Mode

The camera system uses a 12MP 1/2-inch CMOS sensor with an f/2.2 lens, backed by a refreshed image processor and a stabilized 2-axis gimbal. Neo 2 records 4K/100fps for smooth slow-motion clips, or 2.7K vertical video for social media. Improved ActiveTrack now supports eight-direction tracking, maintaining smoother framing during running or cycling in open spaces. SelfieShot expands creative options by automatically composing waist-up, full-body, or long-range shots without tripods or assistants, making it ideal for family trips, picnics, or travel vlogs.

Smart Modes, Safer Flight, and Efficient Storage

Intelligent shooting modes such as Dolly Zoom, QuickShots, and MasterShots allow users to create cinematic clips in just a few taps. Safety gets a major upgrade through omnidirectional monocular vision, forward LiDAR, and downward infrared sensing, supported by a built-in propeller guard that keeps beginners confident in tight indoor or urban spaces. With 49GB internal storage, Level 5 wind resistance, and up to 19 minutes of airtime, Neo 2 handles casual content capture without needing memory cards or cables. Fast Wi-Fi transfer at up to 80MB/s streamlines post-production on the DJI Fly App. Pricing and availability follow DJI’s global rollout schedule, with shipments beginning region by region.

The DJI Neo 2 pushes personal drone filmmaking into a more accessible zone by combining intuitive controls, strong safety systems, and improved tracking in a tiny form factor. Visit DJI for full specifications and regional purchase information.
