I will. I am hoping they will.
I tried swapping the big GoPro style screw for a smaller nut and it made a difference. It still did the dropping but not nearly as much so maybe the new props will do the trick. 🤞🏻

I ordered another set so that I can at least have a full set of 4 props to try. If they don’t work, It’s not much money lost since they were cheap. I do like that they come with screws so that I don’t have to hunt for proper screws.

Got my new props today and they look to be good quality, unfortunately I thought I was ordering a complete set of 4 rather than just 2. Guess I’ll be ordering more and will have to wait before trying them out. I sometimes find the product photos and item descriptions confusing on Aliexpress.

Tried a workaround just in case the 5-blade props on the way from Aliexpress don’t work out.
The NEO flies perfectly with the landing light strapped to it by an elastic. However, as expected there is a noticeable decrease in battery life. I started with a fully charged battery (99%) and landed...
I feel for all DJI pilots in the US whether you fly FPV, photo/video or both. Hopefully the current situation will be resolved and things will get better soon.

If I eventually buy the NEO 2 and that’s a big IF, I would get the motion fly more combo since I already have both an RC-N3 and RC2 controller. The goggles and motion controller is something I don’t have and could use with both NEOs.

Just ordered some 5 blade props from Aliexpress. Maybe if I am lucky they will provide enough thrust to support my 20g light and save me from searching for another light that may or may not work.

My Aurora A3 Pro pictured above is a Rovyvon light and it is 20g. I have two of them and have used them for light painting on my Mini 4 Pro, but on the NEO with the LED landing light attachment the total weight is too heavy. The LED landing light which is necessary for low light is 42g so I...
I’m waiting for now too. I was hoping for more improvements in camera features and direction track.
I also noticed the original NEO is still the same price on DJIs site. You’d think they would have reduced it a bit now that the new drone is out everywhere except the US.
Chris
Thanks! I think those are the ones I was looking into - Gemfan D51. They don’t appear to come with screws so I guess I would have to use The screws from my spare DJI props. I might order a few of these to try out.
Chris
But would they generate enough thrust to compensate for my 20g penlight? Do you have a link for those props on Aliexpress, I don’t use Amazon anymore.

Received my light holder today. Here’s a couple of pictures with the holder and my pen light with it’s mount attached to the holder.
Unfortunately with the landing light attached, it’s too much weight for the NEO. The drone takes off and flies but it continually drops in altitude requiring...
