Drones are a fun way to enjoy the outdoors, but they can be an expensive hobby when you’re just starting out. If you’re looking for an affordable starter drone with responsive controls and an HD camera, then take the Global Drone 4K Platinum Version for a ride. This sleek beginner-friendly drone is on sale for $99.99, marked down from $119. 

A well-rounded drone for first-time flyers 

Take flight with a drone that lets you perform nimble aerial acrobatics over 300 feet in the air. This compact quadcopter has a maximum flight range of about 328 feet. Take flight with one-key takeoff and enjoy up to 15 minutes of airtime on a single battery. Pilots can zoom around at three customizable speed levels or activate altitude hold mode to get a steady view of the world around. 

If you want to get a live view of the world from above, connect your phone via WiFi. That signal can only travel about 150 feet, but that’s still plenty of room for some intense aerial acrobatics. Use the four channels of control to fly up, down, or side to side. Or see how it feels to flip and roll in your own roller coaster in the sky. 

Make sure to snap a few photos or record some video while you’re airborne. The 4K HD front-facing camera can capture some incredible views whether you’re doing some aerial nature photography or just getting a new perspective on a familiar neighborhood.

When it’s time to land, just hit the one-key landing button so you don’t have to do any precise maneuvering. If you’re worried about running into some turbulence or getting a little too up-close-and-personal with a tree, just install the protective propeller guards to help keep them safe.
