Nope. I have 2. Your primary consideration should be whether to buy Neo 2 or this one. Neo 2 has object avoidance and more way to control with hands signals. But for most people taking selfies and trail shots, Neo 1 is plenty good. Kids love them too. You can set it to follow them and they'll run all over the yard and tire themselves out while you sit in the shade and sip refreshing beverage. The footage is good for a laugh too. The battery realistically lasts about 10 minutes so having 3 is good. The dock that comes with it is bidirectional so you can charge your phone with it.

With that price, i would just get the Neo 2. Yes, $260 is only the drone but it's a HUGE upgrade from neo 1.

Where did you get Neo 2 for $260 ?
neo is not huge upgrade. some gains and some loss, it needs add a tail to be able to use remote

That's just the base price for the neo2 (drone only). Neo2 is better in every conceivable way.

Both neo 1 and neo2 are super fun drones but you're realistically getting about 10 mins per battery. 10 mins is over in a blink with a drone. Still, the neo2 is the drone I'd reccomened to anyone considering buying a first drone.

Agreed, neo 2 is amazing. I like the screen that tells you what mode you are in and the improved obstacle avoidance.

I have both and they are both equally fun in their own way. Neo 2 has a better camera, dual axis gimbal, and obstacle avoidance to name a few of the better options. Great for anyone wanting great video or photos. The Neo only has a one axis gimbal where it tilts up and down. I prefer that for FPV with the goggles because you can see the banks and rolls vs a 2 axis gimbal in the Neo2 which corrects it. Also the Neo is smaller and doesn't have the protruding antennas, so it's a great little drone flying into right spaces. It's a great banger drone, very forgiving in crashes.

The Neo is one of the best bargains for HD FPV flying! I'm just disappointed that the FPV remote 3 is overpriced.
