This is the best deal you'll find on these two drones at the moment. Wellbots will knock $100 off on both the Mavic 2 Pro<\/a> and Zoom<\/a> models, DJI's top travel-friendly camera drones for enthusiasts and professionals. You'll need to enter coupon code DJI100 at checkout to get the price reduction. <\/strong><\/p>\n See at Wellbots<\/a> <\/p>\n One of my favorite kits for beginners who want simple indoor and outdoor flying. You can record video and photos with the add-on 720p-resolution camera, but it's also a great way to learn how to fly by first-person view using the included FPV headset. Just slide in an iPhone or Android phone with Parrot's flying app and use the bundled Bluetooth controller to pilot the drone. <\/p>\n See at Best Buy<\/a> Read more on CNET<\/a> <\/p>\n Sarah Tew\/CNET <\/p>\n More of a flying toy than what's typically considered a drone, the Supernova is surrounded with IR sensors, letting you use your hands to control it. It definitely takes some practice, but once you've got the hand gestures down, it's a blast to play with alone or a partner. <\/p>\n See at Walmart<\/a> <\/p>\n Joshua Goldman\/CNET <\/p>\n Rather fly an RC plane than a quadcopter? The PowerUp Dart lets you do just that with very little investment. It's a powered paper airplane that does flips and rolls that you control with an app on your phone. An onscreen slider controls the throttle, while tilting your phone left or right handles steering. It takes some practice, but it's a blast once you get the hang of it. Prices start at $50 for the basic kit. <\/p>\n See at PowerUp<\/a> <\/p>\n Joshua Goldman\/CNET <\/p>\n Built in collaboration with drone market leader DJI and Intel, the Tello is way smarter than your average phone-controlled camera drone. The app has several preprogrammed flight patterns designed to get cool-looking selfie shots or you can just fly it with onscreen controls. A Bluetooth controller is available for it, too, if you'd rather have physical controls. <\/p>\n The Tello is available at Best Buy<\/a>, Amazon<\/a> and elsewhere for $79 ($20 off its normal price) by itself, or you can pick it up from the same retailers with three batteries and a charging hub for $99. <\/p>\n See at Amazon<\/a> <\/p>\n Sarah Tew\/CNET <\/p>\n It's amazing that you can get a camera drone with GPS for $60, let alone a good one. While the Journey won't be putting DJI out of business, it's a good entry-level quadcopter that can hold its position and hover using GPS and has return to home, a Follow Me mode and waypoint navigation. The Fury (on sale for $35 at Amazon<\/a>) is a simple drone that's quick and can do a variety of flips with buttons on the controller. <\/p>\n See at Amazon<\/a> <\/p>\n Sarah Tew\/CNET <\/p>\n The Air might not have the camera or performance of the Mavic 2 Pro and Zoom<\/a> models, but it's still my go-to camera drone recommendation for most people. <\/p>\n See at Amazon<\/a> Read the CNET review<\/a> <\/p>\n Joshua Goldman\/CNET <\/p>\n You get a lot for your money with the Anafi. The 4K-resolution camera drone folds up to the size of a compact umbrella and weighs next to nothing. That's at least part of the reason it gets up to 25 minutes of flight time. While it lacks obstacle avoidance like the Mavic Air, it has a whole bag of shooting tricks for photos and video. <\/p>\n See at Parrot<\/a> <\/p>\n Now playing: Watch this: Our favorite holiday gifts for under $100 2:45 <\/p>\n The best tech gifts of the year<\/a>: CNET's top picks. <\/p>\nParrot Mambo FPV Kit for $100<\/h2>\n
