Oh Flip! The DJI drone is perfect for beginners

With the release of the Flip drone, DJI has managed to retain its image as one of the most innovative camera technology companies. If you are in the market for your first drone, the DJI Flip must be a serious contender. 

Drone photography offers unique opportunities that traditional photography can’t match. With a drone, you can capture breathtaking aerial views that were previously only accessible to professional helicopters or planes. 

The Flip, DJI’s best beginners’ drone, has a few stand-out qualities: 

• Thanks to the propeller guards and front-facing omnidirectional obstacle avoidance, it’s impossible to crash it. Well, almost . . . 
• Can’t fly a drone yet? No problem. The DJI Flip can fly itself! Power the drone on (by pushing the button on the drone), select a fly mode, and the drone will do the rest. You can also fly it with your cellphone or the remote control. If you want to land the drone, simply walk in the direction of the drone and stick out your hand. The drone will land itself on your hand. 
• Thanks to intelligent AI human tracking, the drone can follow you. The default setting is follow-mode. 
• It shoots video in 4K 60P and has a 1/1.3-inch sensor, so the image quality is more than decent. 

Price: R15 995 from Orms for the Flip with the RC2 remote controller and “fly more combo,” which includes 2 extra batteries.
