Lightweight DJI Neo 2 Drone

The DJI Neo 2, announced on November 13, 2025, is aimed at beginners, travelers, vloggers, and families. It's designed to be a "selfie drone," prioritizing ease of use and safety. Weighing 151g (or 160g with the digital transceiver), the Neo 2 falls under the 250g weight limit for many drone regulations, but its actual weight may vary. Some sources indicate that the weight including tolerance may exceed 250g. In the EU, a +/-3% manufacturing tolerance on the 250g weight limit will take effect on April 30th, 2026. Regulators from Canada, the UK, Australia, and the US have confirmed that the Mini 5 Pro *WILL NOT* be treated as a sub-250g drone. The Neo 2 boasts omnidirectional obstacle sensing via a monocular vision system, forward-facing LiDAR, and downward infrared sensing. Its camera features a 12MP 1/2-inch CMOS sensor with an f/2.2 aperture. It can shoot 4K video at up to 60fps, or 100fps for slow motion, and 2.7K vertical video. It has a maximum video bitrate of 150 Mbps. The drone has a 119.8° FOV lens with a 16.5mm equivalent focal length. The Neo 2 also includes 49GB of internal storage. Flight time is around 19 minutes per battery, and a "Fly More Combo" offers three batteries. The transmission range is 500 meters using the mobile app, but up to 10 km with the DJI RC-N3 controller. The Neo 2 can withstand wind speeds up to 10.7 m/s. Compared to the original Neo, the Neo 2 has enhanced FPV flying options, better range, and improved image quality. It also has new Quickshot modes with greater range and quality. The DJI Neo 2 launched in China on October 30, 2025, followed by Europe, Canada, and Brazil on November 13, 2025. As of November 2025, a US release was uncertain due to regulatory pressures.
