DJI Neo Fly More Combo review
DJI’s 135-gram selfie drone takes off from your palm, follows you and records 4K. The Fly More Combo adds the RC-N3 controller, three batteries and a two-way charging hub for about $295.
Neo is built around palm takeoff and subject tracking. Press a button, it lifts off your hand, and it can follow you or fly one of eight QuickShots. At 135 grams, it fits in a pocket.
Why the Fly More Combo
The basic Neo comes with one battery. This combo adds two more, a two-way charging hub and the RC-N3 controller. With three batteries, a family outing or a hike is covered without hunting for a socket.
Where it falls short
DJI rates it for level 4 wind, a step below the Mini 4K. It is a selfie and vlog drone first; for scenic flights and longer range, the Mini 4K on this shelf is the better tool.
Flying legally

What people ask before they commit
Do I need the controller?
No. DJI says Neo flies controller-free from the palm, by voice or by app. The RC-N3 in this combo is for manual flying and longer range.
Does the Neo need FAA registration?
DJI says its 135 g weight keeps it outside FAA registration and Remote ID for recreational use. The FAA’s rules decide where and how you may fly, whatever a listing says. Check the FAA website before your first flight.
Can I fly it indoors?
The full-coverage guards make indoor flights and flights near branches safer, which DJI encourages. Keep clear of people and pets all the same.

Our score

The easiest drone here to start with: palm launch, tracking and guards. Choose the Mini 4K instead for landscapes and windy days.
