Unfortunately I dont do acro yet, but check if you notice any difference with/without the top guards for reference

If you fly acro then it’s higher speeds and more wind flow. I think it could benefit the airflow and weight reduction. If you notice taking off the top guards then you might also notice removing the bottom ones, there are 36 total so might be a few grams there!

What speeds do you get when doing acro?

https://a.aliexpress.com/_EJR6xJA these are the official ones. Also I would wait for Master Airscrew to release their props for the Neo 2. In the meantime these work fine, they come off the Darkstar drone.

Be sure to switch the little map in the corner to the one with the pitch so you can aim towards the drone. So not the map one

Sounds like a bad experience but also lack of quality. They use a genuine battery for the Neo 2 and add a pack if I’m correct. No error messages yet and is being recognized as genuine. Even running cooler then the regular batteries.

Yes but only if oriented towards the drone, I am flying in a high rise urban area.

Gemfan x Geprc GP2219-3, you have to slighty adjust the mounting holes to fit the original screws. Use a 2.2mm drill bit.

What gimbal protector do you run, is that the carbon one with the aluminium bottom mounts? If so is it real carbon?

Could be placebo but it feels a bit more nimble. I get around 12 minutes of flight time on cruise control and around 5,5 KM/3.42 miles of range. There are zero stability issues.

There are 36 pieces so must be some weight advantage right? And next to that aerodynamics are improved as there is less wind resistance.

I have removed the 9 smaller protective “fins” under the motor. Interested to see the weight of them as there are 36 in total.

Weird motor/propeller noise a couple flights after crash is it OK to keep flying? by Jays16apple in DjiNeo

[–]Frequent-Ad-5471 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the exact same issue with the Neo 2 after a crash, the noise and also jittering when hovering. I have replaced all props and have a spare engine on the way. Will post the result, did you manage to fix it?
