Unexpected Early Access
Ryan managed to obtain the DJI Neo Fly More Combo, which includes the DJI RC-N3 remote controller and additional accessories. While the exact location and price of the purchase remain undisclosed, this incident adds to the growing list of pre-release appearances of the DJI Neo.
Recent DJI Neo Sightings
This latest development follows two other recent sightings:
- A DJI Neo on display at a Best Buy store
- An Italian drone enthusiast purchased the DJI Neo in Malaysia, though unable to fly it due to lacking the updated DJI Fly app
Anticipation Builds for Official Release
The repeated appearances of the DJI Neo in retail environments suggest that the official launch is imminent, as was announced by the Chinese drone maker DJI earlier today. However, without the necessary software updates, early purchasers like the enthusiast in Malaysia find themselves unable to operate their new drones.
DroneXL’s Take
These pre-launch sightings of the DJI Neo drone highlight the intense interest and anticipation surrounding new DJI products. As we’ve seen with previous DJI rumors, early appearances often precede official announcements. This trend underscores the company’s continued dominance in the consumer drone market and the eagerness of enthusiasts to get their hands on the latest technology.
The inability to fly the drone without updated software also emphasizes the importance of DJI’s ecosystem in controlling and optimizing their products. As we await the official release, it will be interesting to see how the DJI Neo’s features and capabilities compare to other recent releases like the DJI Air 3.
