Drone filters-again

Probably ND8 and ND16 - Taco here though on Mavic.
I think they are not as useful as made out though, and cause problems if part way through you want to stop and take stills.
 
I have a set of Taco. I don't see the point of having a polarising filter unless you know the exact angle you'll be filming/photographing and can adjust the filter beforehand.
 
I would go for the genuine DJI ones. Same weight as the existing clear filter. An ND16 should cover most sunny day situations.
 
All the ND filters I have used on my stills cameras claim not to give any colour cast but they all look to give a 300-400k blue colour shift. If you just record a white balance card before and after you fit the filter it's easy to adjust out with a custom white balance adjustment.
