Quick Answer: DJI sells the Neo 2 in four kits, and two of them share the words “Fly More Combo” in the name. The $349 Fly More Combo (Drone Only) adds two extra batteries and a charging hub over the $259 base kit — but ships with no controller, despite the name. The $429 Fly More Combo has the identical accessory loadout plus DJI’s RC-N3 controller. The $599 Motion Fly More Combo swaps that controller for DJI’s RC Motion 3 and Goggles N3, turning the Neo 2 into an FPV-style rig. The $349 tier is the best per-dollar step: at DJI’s own standalone pricing, its extra batteries and hub are worth about $113 for a $90 premium.
The DJI Neo 2 is priced simply enough at $259 for the drone-only kit — until you look at the accessory tiers above it, where DJI reused the “Fly More Combo” name for two different products that differ by whether a controller is in the box at all. This guide breaks down exactly what’s in each of the four kits, so you don’t end up with $349 of batteries and no way to fly beyond your phone.
The four DJI Neo 2 kits, side by side
| Kit | Controller | Batteries | Transceiver | Price |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| DJI Neo 2 (Drone Only) | None — phone only | 1 | No | $259 |
| Fly More Combo (Drone Only) | None — phone only | 3 | No | $349 |
| Fly More Combo | DJI RC-N3 | 3 | Yes (O4) | $429 |
| Motion Fly More Combo | RC Motion 3 + Goggles N3 | 3 | Yes (O4) | $599 |

Notice the trap: the second and third rows both say “Fly More Combo,” but only the $429 kit gives you a physical controller. Buy the $349 kit expecting a controller and you’ll still be flying with your phone clipped to nothing, exactly as you would with the base $259 kit.
DJI Neo 2 Fly More Combo (Drone Only)
- Adds two extra Intelligent Flight Batteries and the Two-Way Charging Hub over the $259 base kit — three batteries total instead of one.
- Still flies phone-only via the DJI Fly app, same as the base kit — no RC-N3 controller or O4 transceiver included.
- Also adds a gimbal protector for storage and transport, on top of the propeller guards the base kit already includes.

What’s actually in each box
DJI Neo 2 (Drone Only) — $259: the aircraft, one Intelligent Flight Battery, a spare propeller pair, spare propeller screws, a screwdriver, one propeller guard pair, and a USB-C data cable. No charging hub — you charge the single battery through the aircraft itself.
Fly More Combo (Drone Only) — $349: everything in the base kit, but with three Intelligent Flight Batteries instead of one, plus the Two-Way Charging Hub and a gimbal protector. Still no controller and no O4 Digital Transceiver — you fly it exactly the same way as the base kit, just with more batteries to swap between flights.
Fly More Combo — $429: the same three-battery, charging-hub loadout as the $349 kit, plus the DJI RC-N3 remote controller, the O4 Digital Transceiver for extended-range transmission, and two RC cables (USB-C and Lightning) to connect a phone to the controller.
Motion Fly More Combo — $599: the same three batteries, charging hub, and O4 transceiver as the $429 kit, but the controller is swapped for the DJI RC Motion 3 motion controller paired with DJI Goggles N3 — the immersive FPV setup instead of a stick controller and phone screen.
None of the four kits include a microSD card; the Neo 2’s 49GB of internal storage covers most casual sessions, but heavy 4K/100fps shooters should still grab a microSD card for offloading footage — see our best microSD card for drones guide.
The buy-separately math
Using DJI’s own standalone accessory prices via djiusa.com:
| Item | List price |
|---|---|
| Intelligent Flight Battery × 2 | $78 ($39 each) |
| Two-Way Charging Hub | $35 |
| Total if bought separately | ~$113 |
| Fly More Combo (Drone Only) premium over the base kit | $90 |
That’s roughly $23 in savings before even counting the bundled gimbal protector — and both accessories were showing as sold out on djiusa.com’s own standalone listings at the time of this guide, which makes buying them pre-bundled in the combo the more reliable path anyway, not just the cheaper one.
Why the “Drone Only” name matters here
DJI’s naming usually puts “Drone Only” on the cheapest, bare-bones tier — that’s true for the base $259 kit. But DJI reused the same qualifier on the $349 accessory bundle to signal that this combo is also controller-free, even though “Fly More Combo” on its own (as used for the Mini and Air lines) usually implies a full kit with a controller included. Skim past the “(Drone Only)” tag and it’s easy to assume $349 buys you a controller — it doesn’t. If a physical controller matters to you at all, the kit you actually want starts at $429.
Who should buy which kit
- Buy the Fly More Combo (Drone Only, $349) if you’re happy flying off your phone and just want more battery life per outing — this is the best per-dollar step in the lineup.
- Buy the Fly More Combo ($429) if you want a physical controller with better ergonomics and extended O4 transmission range over Wi-Fi-only phone control.
- Buy the base kit ($259) only if you’re testing the waters with a single short flight per outing and don’t mind frequent recharges.
- Buy the Motion Fly More Combo ($599) if immersive FPV-style flying, not stick control, is the point — it’s a different flying experience, not just a pricier accessory tier.
By the numbers
- $90 vs ~$113: the Fly More Combo (Drone Only)‘s premium over the base kit, against the standalone list-price value of the two extra batteries ($39 each) and the Two-Way Charging Hub ($35) it includes.
- $80: the added cost of the $429 Fly More Combo over the $349 Fly More Combo (Drone Only) — the price of a physical controller and extended-range transceiver alone, since the battery and hub loadout is otherwise identical.
- $170: the gap between the $429 stick-controller combo and the $599 Motion Fly More Combo, which buys the RC Motion 3 controller and Goggles N3 instead of the RC-N3.
- 49GB: onboard storage shared by all four kits — none include a microSD card.
The bottom line
The DJI Neo 2 Fly More Combo (Drone Only) at $349 is the sharpest value in the lineup for anyone happy flying off their phone — three batteries and a charging hub for a real discount versus buying those parts separately, assuming you can even find them in stock alone. Just don’t mistake it for a controller kit: that’s the $429 Fly More Combo, and the $599 Motion Fly More Combo is a different flying experience entirely.
