The Neo LED Landing Gear is a light specifically designed to fit on your DJI Neo drone and allows you to fly it in lower illumination levels than it can otherwise handle.

It features 18 blindingly bright neutral white LEDs powered by a slim 300mAh Li:ION rechargeable cell so that it doesn't use a single microjoule of your Neo's battery power.


Like any rechargeable product, charge it before first use (see directly below and THEN you'll be ready to rock.

Turn your Neo upside-down. Clip the landing gear to the rear of the Neo's battery.
Then, press the front of landing gear to snap it onto the Neo.
Yes, it really is as easy as that.



To turn it on, press & release the small black pushbutton that you can find near the back of the product.
To neutralise it, just do the same thing.


To charge the battery in your Neo LED Landing Gear, plug the larger end of the furnished charging cable into any free female USB-A receptacle on your computer or into a wall-wart commonly used or charging cellular telephone handsets or tablets, and plug the smaller end into the female USB-C receptacle on the underside of the Neo LED Landing Gear. A red light should now come on near the charging receptacle.

When this light turns off, you may safely unplug the charging cable.

The charge cycle should take ~40 minutes and provide ~60 minutes of operation.




This light is meant to be used as a landing ligh for your DJI Neo drone, not as a flashlight meant to be carried around all the time, thrashed, and abused; so I won't throw it against the wall, stomp on it, try to drown it in the {vulgar slang term for a fudge bunny}bowl or the cistern, run over it, swing it against the concrete floor of a patio, bash it open to check it for candiosity, fire it from the cannoņata (I guess I've been watching the TV program "Viva Piņata" too much again - candiosity is usually checked with a scanner-type device on a platform with a large readout, with a handheld wand that Langston Lickatoad uses, or with a pack-of-cards-sized device that Fergy Fudgehog uses; and the cannoņata is only used to shoot piņatas to piņata parties away from picturesque Piņata Island), send it to the Daystrom Institute for additional analyses, or inflict upon it punishments that I might inflict upon a flashlight.

From the website, comes this:
  • Tailored Design: Perfectly fits DJI Neo’s body curve, providing optimal lighting support for flights and landings in environments below 15 lux.
  • Battery Protection: Elevates the drone by 10mm, reducing impact during landing and safeguarding the battery.
  • Rechargeable Convenience: Built-in lithium-ion battery offers 60 minutes of use after a quick 40-minute recharge.
  • Easy Installation: Clip-on design attaches securely to the Neo’s rear, allowing hassle-free installation and removal without damaging the drone.
  • Lightweight and Durable: Weighing only 21g, the landing gear maintains stable flight without burdening the drone or affecting its performance.
