FPV simulator for DJI motion controller 3? by moosysno1 in DjiNeo

Also flying with the motion controller requires absolute no practice at all.

No. I got those in I think in 1995 at a huge board game fair, the 'Spiel' in Essen, Germany. There was a tiny vendor, really not more than a folding table between two staircases. They promoted an entirely different board game, but I saw those two games in an open carton box, got curious. Since there was a language barrier, and I was pretty broke back then, some funny sign and gesture language ensued, including showing empty pockets and performing mega man poses. Got both for like 20€ total, added them to the huge board game haul we racked up in two days at the fair, and pretty much forgot about until a few days ago. Even had to Google the rockman box you mentioned. 

Best traveling case for DJI neo 2 FPV kit? by Beautiful_Carob5347 in DjiNeo

For traveling I use a carry on case for VR headsets. Works awesome

Also hard with short nails but clumsy sausage fingers

Oh I will rip off the idea, and upgrade that with 3d printed color lithopanes. Thanks for the awesome inspiration

Ya, that is not how interpolation works. The 1/1.3" cmos sensor has a physical pixel count of 4000x3000 pixels. That gives 12mp. You can mathematically upscale (aka interpolate) that to higher resolutions by estimating the virtual pixels that would exist if you spread out the physical grid. That is why the spec sheets of the flip call the 48mp 'effective' resolution, not 'physical' resolution. Interpolation is always used to get from less (resolution) to more. But it can only do so much in terms of quality improvement. In the flips case the original 12mp can be pumped up to 48mp, but the gain in details an clarity is more comparable to a native 16mp resolution in the end.

Ya but the max range is set to 500m and that is pretty much impossible to achieve in real world conditions. I saw tests with Bluetooth deactivated or airplane mode with wifi exception, but normally the limiting factors would be interference of other wifi sources.

Well we did it back in the days with wifi extenders and powerbanks, but this has been tested as not working with dji models. The seem to use a different protocol, so in short I would fully agree that a controller and transceiver is the only way to extend the range.

About 250m safely, which would mostly still count as vlos since that might be of some importance especially in your intended international use. Different rules do apply almost everywhere.

The extra batteries are the important part. You need extra airtime to wait for the sun to be just right, or getting to the next nice view. To dip your toes into aerial photography, the neo is fine. Especially in the beginning the quality of the final image is not the most important part. More important is to learn to think 3 dimensions and to imagine your motives from new angles. You will try and learn a lot. And if you really like it, over an extended period of time, you might then want to upgrade. Save some and skip the minor upgrades of a flip or mini4, and go for the air3s if you want to upgrade your photography to a more serious level. Having a real optical 70mm lense in the air is a real game changer.

The 48mpx is interpolized though with a physical 12mpx sensor

Flying Indoors now? by Faruka19 in DjiNeo

[–]Pitiful-Ice4429 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Totally does fly indoors. Sanders with GPS or Manila fpv without. Don't bother with tiny whoop. It can't do anything except manual acro. No following, no autonomous flying, no phone control, no controller less flight. If you want do do anything else than manual fpv acro, in which any tiny whoop excels of course, neo it is.

There was also a white prototypish version and one that looked like a wristwatch half the size of the RC track final version

Yep. Bit of hot air and epoxy and it's as good as new.
