DJI Neo

I have just purchased the DJI Neo Drone for capturing photos and Videos of a holiday I plan to take to Darwin. I looked around for a sports camera for some photos but it seemed that all I need was a mobile phone for similar pictures. My son said why don't you look at a Drone it will give you a new perspective on video. He said this Drone is entry level. I looked at all the videos on youtube and I was hooked. I purchased it form JB HiFi as I looked at some on line stores but found that they are all the same price. They must all purchased it from the same place in China. When I went into store the sales man showed me the package for $500 I said have a look at your online page it sells for $457 Harvey Norman was the same price. It takes a bit of getting use to but it is like my cat it looks at me and follows me around. I bought the controller for that price and the 2 more batteries. It takes a bit of setting up as you have to upload firmware to the drone as well but its super reactive picture and Video is clear now its just a matter of getting use to flying it. you have to look at the Youtube videos but there are some draw backs for advance users ( which I am not ). it has no collision avoidence so it can bump into things if your not carefull. don't fly it over water as it has sencers underneath that judges horizon and distance from the ground and water confuses it. having said that it is a great biggeners Drone.

Really, really good value, and super simple to use – Amazing value. Fly it completely on its own (no controller, just your voice or a preselect button). very stable even in moderate wind, super easy to control, only needs a mobile phone to operate, stuff it in your pocket to carry it. For a first drone, astonishing value. Downsides? Only about 15 mins flight time, and it can crash into trees and such as it doesn't have hazard avoid or return to home - but it is pretty tough with built-in propeller guards so it should survive.
