Considering a camera drone? You can get one for just $24, today only

Looking to take your photography skills to the next level? How about a gift for the grandkids that love gadgets? You can snap brilliant pics when you’re hundreds of feet above ground with a drone and today only, Amazon is having a huge sale on drones from Holy Stone, Deerc and Hoylton — you can get one for up to 40% off.

Whether you’re an aspiring photographer or just want to tool around, you can get models like the Holy Stone HS190 Foldable Mini Nano RC Drone for just $24, down from $30 — that's over 40% off!

This drone, with a 120-degree 720p HD camera on its belly, can capture both still photos and video.

Just sync the drone to your iOS or Android smartphone via the Holy Stone app, which doubles as its control center, and you’ll be all set to take flight up to 328 feet. One of the reasons this drone is ideal for first-timers is because it has easy-to-use controls, and one-button takeoffs, landings and hovering.

So far, it has more than 6,000 five-star reviews on Amazon.

“If you are looking for a beginner drone then look no more,” wrote a delighted five-star reviewer. “All I can say is my 7 year old is playing this drone for days. Easy to learn, has a button which avoids bumping into things also you can just back it right in the remote as a case how cool is that. I love that it comes with spare parts and propeller guards to protect the propeller. Also when you have issues with the drone or spare parts just get in touch with the holy stone company itself. They really stand for their products and it was super easy to communicate with them. No hassle no hidden agenda. From now on we stick with Holy Stone it's really a company you can trust their quality.”

"OMG!!! So much fun!" shared an excited shopper. "This little guy is so easy to learn! It took me five minutes to set it up without any unexpected setbacks. Durable. He doesn’t get hurt because he’s so light weight. I was able to learn how to do all of the tricks without the battery’s dying, long batterie life. And it takes great pictures and videos!"

"I own a number of other RC planes and Drones, but I am really impressed with this little baby!" shared a rave reviewer. "This little drone is a lot of fun, and could really go a long ways in safely teaching a child to fly a larger drone in the future! It’s even great if all you want is a fun “toy” for your child/children. You can fly it with, or without, the remote! I’ve crashed it a number of times and you can’t tell a thing happened to it. I just pick it up and throw it in the air again!"
