The latest must-have tech out in February

Combining the simplicity of the DJI Neo and the photographic capabilities of the DJI Mini, the new foldable DJI Flip is the ideal selfie and vlogging drone, featuring advanced shooting modes and 4K 60fps video capture.

Sporting an awesome, ultra-compact design, the Flip is DJI’s first camera drone to feature foldable propellers with built-in guards.

Perfect for beginners and frequent flyers alike, it can be easily launched from your palm and has six intelligent flight modes, so drone newbies can get the hang of flying and capturing professional looking photos and videos.

Precise AI tracking keeps the subject as the focal point, which is great for capturing action sports, or just taking a selfie.

On a full charge, the Flip can stay airborne for around 30 minutes, and travel a maximum flight distance of 14km.

Check out the full drone rules and regulations here. Ignorance of them isn’t a valid excuse if anything happens to go wrong.
