How to Carry a DJI Neo in a Protective Case

A DJI Neo case should fit the 135 g drone, its 45 g battery, and spare props without crushing the built-in guards. The Neo flies 18 minutes and charges 3 batteries at once in its hub, so a case with battery slots suits a day out. This guide covers 3 cases and spare props, from $5.93.

Which case fits the DJI Neo?

Neo cases fit the DJI Neo. The Neo 2 uses its own cases, so check the listing for Neo or Neo 2 before you order.

The Neo weighs about 135 g and measures 130 by 157 by 48.5 mm, per the DJI specs. A case built for it holds the drone snug.

Check the case interior for battery slots. The Neo hub charges 3 batteries at once, so spares travel with the drone.

Hard case or handbag?

A hard case guards the drone and the gimbal against knocks in transit. It suits checked bags and car trunks.

A handbag weighs less and holds the drone, batteries, and accessories in compartments. It suits a day out on foot.

The $41.58 case listing states shock-proof and drop-resistant. The $13.97 bag listing states water and shockproof.

What goes inside the case?

Pack the drone, spare batteries, and spare props. Each battery weighs about 45 g, so 2 spares add 90 g to the bag.

Pack props flat in their slots. A bent blade vibrates and must be replaced, so keep props flat.

Keep the charging hub in the bag if you fly all day. It charges 3 batteries at once from a 60W charger, per DJI.

Which propellers fit the Neo?

Neo propellers fit the Neo and the Neo 2. The listing in this guide states both models.

The prop set ships with screwdrivers, per the listing. Fit marked props to marked motors.

Check each prop before flight after travel. Spin it by hand and replace any blade that wobbles.

What did we check on the bench?

We checked all 4 listings for DJI Neo fitment. Each listing states the Neo by name.

We matched the weight of about 135 g and the 18 minute flight time to the DJI Neo specs page. The battery is 1435 mAh and 45 g.

We counted the prop listing as a 1 or 2 pair set with screwdrivers, per the listing.
