DJI Neo 2 starts at 151 g without the Digital Transceiver, with palm takeoff, gesture control, 4K video, a two-axis gimbal, and obstacle sensing around the aircraft.
Use it without a controller for quick clips, add RC-N3 or RC 2 for familiar twin sticks, or pair compatible goggles with RC Motion 3. The same aircraft moves from a family camera to an O4 camera drone or an entry point into immersive flight.
Choose the right control setup
Start with the lightest workflow, then add only the controller hardware your shots require.
Take off from your palm, select a mode on the aircraft, change distance or direction with hand movements, and use Return-to-Palm to finish.
Use DJI Fly for live view, virtual sticks, settings, transfer, and editing. Voice control is available through a connected English- or Mandarin-language phone.
Add twin-stick control, O4 transmission, 1080p/60 live view, and more deliberate flight paths. RC-N3 uses a phone; RC 2 has its own screen.
Pair Goggles N3 or Goggles 3 with RC Motion 3 for an immersive view and one-handed steering. FPV Remote Controller 3 is the compatible twin-stick alternative.
Every control component is a separate product with its own Canadian price and stock, so you can start with one package and add the rest later instead of buying a second aircraft.
One-handed motion control. Needs compatible goggles and the Digital Transceiver.

View FPV Remote Controller 3
Fitted 735 g case for the aircraft, RC-N3, transceiver, hub, three batteries, and a 65 W charger.
View carrying caseDJI Neo 2 needs the Digital Transceiver installed for any remote-controller or goggles flight. RC Motion 3 and FPV Remote Controller 3 cannot fly the aircraft without goggles paired.
The 16.5 mm equivalent lens is very wide, the two-axis gimbal controls tilt and roll, and RockSteady handles the remaining movement. Use 4K/60 for normal delivery, 4K/100 for slow motion, and 2.7K vertical for a phone-first edit.
Neo 2 combines an omnidirectional monocular vision system with forward-facing LiDAR and a downward infrared sensor. It can detect supported obstacles while tracking from the front or side and holds position more reliably near buildings, indoors, and over difficult ground.
Scan the route first. Vision systems do not make wires, twigs, glass, water, snow, crowds, traffic, or low light safe.
Update and activate the aircraft, clear 49 GB of storage, practise palm recovery in an open area, then add one control method at a time. Learn the sound and display warnings before using tracking near any obstacle.
Five common uses and five less obvious jobs that fit its small size, protected propellers, tracking, and fast deployment.
Start a wide establishing shot from your hand, then pack the aircraft into a jacket pocket or small camera bag.
Use ActiveTrack and Cycling Follow in an open route while keeping a clear plan for branches, wires, people, traffic, and the return.
Use SelfieShot to frame one person or a group without stopping the activity to set up a tripod.
Record 2.7K vertical clips or 4K horizontal footage, then move selects to a phone through QuickTransfer.
Use the protected propeller layout and improved positioning in a large, well-lit, clear room before moving into more complex spaces.
Record repeatable follow angles for running form, cycling position, skating, dance, or field drills and compare sessions over time.
Add a moving wide angle to a photo shoot, rehearsal, set build, workshop, or outdoor production without assigning another camera operator.
Capture a quick overview of a permitted site, then use the footage with maps and ground photos to plan a later production.
Use SelfieShot or a controlled pull-away to open a wedding, reunion, club ride, campsite, or team video with everyone already in the frame.
Use Goggles N3 and RC Motion 3 to practise smooth close-range lines in an appropriate clear area before committing a larger FPV aircraft.
Move the job to SkyFlow’s enterprise team for the right aircraft, payload, output, and operating plan.
The supplied samples cover cycling, portraits, open landscapes, water, and changing outdoor light at web resolution.
Controller-free packages keep the kit simple. RC-N3 adds sticks and O4. Motion Fly More adds goggles and one-handed immersive control.

The product page keeps RC-N3, RC 2, Goggles N3, Goggles 3, RC Motion 3, FPV Remote Controller 3, batteries, hub, Digital Transceiver, guards, cables, and tools visible. Their quantities update to zero or the included count when the selected package changes.
Batteries and charging affect every outing. The Digital Transceiver changes how Neo 2 connects. Guards and propellers are service parts worth having before a trip.
Up to 19 minutes of rated flight time.

View carrying caseYes. It supports palm takeoff and landing, gesture control, mobile-app control, and voice control through a connected phone. A remote controller adds twin-stick precision, a longer O4 link, more camera control, and access to 4K/100 recording.
Choose Drone Only for the lowest-cost palm and phone workflow. Choose Fly More Drone Only when battery time matters. Choose the RC-N3 package for traditional sticks and precise camera control. Choose Motion Fly More when goggles flight is the reason you are buying it.
Yes. Install the DJI Neo 2 Digital Transceiver before powering on the aircraft when flying with a compatible remote controller or goggles. Remove it for the lightest palm-control setup.
It works well for web, social, behind-the-scenes, scouting, and bright outdoor delivery. It records JPEG rather than raw photos and Normal colour rather than a log profile, so Mini 5 Pro is the better step when heavy grading, low-light work, or larger-client delivery matters.
DJI rates the aircraft for approximately 19 minutes without the Digital Transceiver and about 17 minutes with the propeller guards under its test conditions. Wind, tracking speed, temperature, recording, the O4 module, and the return reserve reduce usable time.
No. Vision and LiDAR assist with supported surfaces and obstacles. Thin branches, wires, glass, water, snow, low-texture surfaces, moving objects, poor light, and tight spaces can still defeat sensing. Check the route before using an automated shot.
No. It records to 49 GB of internal storage. Use QuickTransfer or a USB-C connection to clear the aircraft before a longer shoot.
Plan the flight so the required visual line of sight is maintained. A visual observer and the right operating setup may be needed when the pilot is wearing goggles and cannot keep an unaided outside view of the aircraft.
