DJI RC-N3 Reviews

Expands the Capabilities of the DJI Neo

By Donna
Rated 4 out of 5
Date: 2024-10-28

I purchased this controller to pair with my new DJI Neo drone. Pairing with my phone and the aircraft was simple and easy. All functions work as expected. The phone clamp and included cable are quite sufficient for my needs, accepting my phone without the need to remove the case. The remote expands the capabilities of the Neo considerably. If you don't already have a compatible controller, this is an excellent choice.
