    Neo 2: Notes, observations, surprises as I test and learn

    Yes, you must have Remote ID, and the top propguards. Most normal patrolmen will more than likely not know drone regulations, but at the end of the day, you will be legal and compliant. I do see where you are coming from in terms of having something more than quoting regulations that they will...

    Neo 2: Notes, observations, surprises as I test and learn

    You cannot get more authoritative than the regulation quoted above. But Pilot Institute has a video: Also you must be Part 107 to exercise this and don't forget to charge and secure your Remote ID module.

    Obstacle avoidance and tracking with a vehicle.

    One, this is the reason I bought the Neo 2. The low price and what you get for it. Two, that's a nice looking truck.

    Neo 2 crashed

    THe obstacle avoidance is far from perfect. As mentioned, was the obstacle avoidance turned on? If the bush did not have leaves on it, the obstacle avoidance may not have seen the thin branches. My Neo 2 has clipped leafless branches on several occasions so far. In my limited experience, the...

    Avata 360 leaks

    I had heard it was under 250 grams, but every leaked image I see has it looking well over 205 grams. If the Neo 2 is as good as it is, my expectations are very high for this flagship variant for DJI FPV. Hope my favorite South Korean eBay source is as quick as he usually is with getting these...

    Neo 2: Notes, observations, surprises as I test and learn

    An important part of over people is that the 4 listed Category drones are only for Part 107 pilots, not recreational. You can also fly over people if obtaining a waiver or operating under Part 91.

    Neo 2: Notes, observations, surprises as I test and learn

    If you have a Part 107 certificate and add a RID module and the prop guards, the Neo and Neo 2 are Category 1 drones, meaning they can legally operate over people and moving vehicles and being Category 1 can operate over open assemblies (crowds). They can be a valuable tool to film venues...

    RC2 and Neo 2

    Don't you have to hold down the power button on the Neo 2 (While its powered on) until it starts beeping. Then do the same to the controller (While its powered on)?

    Satellite Signal Strength Indicator on DJI Fly App

    It could happen. DJI is notorius for adding features to its drones as they mature. The Neo 2 did not have manual mode upon launch, but now does. You may be happy in a future firmware upgrade.
