The DJI Flip was already one of the easiest drones to recommend for travelers and first-time pilots. Now, a major policy change in Washington gives Americans another reason to consider picking one up while today’s deal prices are still available.
The Trump administration has announced sweeping new tariffs on imported drones and drone components, with smaller consumer drones facing a 25% tariff and certain larger or security-sensitive drones subject to duties as high as 100%. While many of the new tariffs are scheduled to take effect in the coming weeks, they have already raised fresh questions about where drone prices could head next and how readily foreign-made models will remain available in the US market.
That makes today’s DJI Flip deal prices feel a little more significant than your typical seasonal sale.
Right now, the DJI Flip two-battery combo without a remote controller is available for $309, down from $389. Buyers who prefer the RC-N3 controller can grab that bundle for $349 instead of $439. The version with DJI’s RC 2 screen controller has dropped to $509 from $639, while the fully equipped DJI Flip Fly More Combo with RC 2 is now selling for $619, reduced from $779.
Of course, discounts alone aren’t enough to make a drone worth recommending. The Flip succeeds because it tackles many of the reasons people avoid buying drones in the first place.
