If you're new to the world of the best drones, then you should start with a bundle package. These combos include the drone, extra batteries, a controller, and a handy carry case for keeping all your kit organised. One of the best around is the DJI Mini 4K bundle on sale at Amazon for £259 (was £329).

In our DJI Mini 4K review, we rated the drone an impressive four-and-a-half stars, and at this record-low price, there really is nothing better at this price point. Snap it up before the deal ends on February 15.

This is the dream drone deal for beginners. You get everything you need to be up and running immediately for the super-low price of £259. That £70 saving is not to be sniffed at, especially because we rated the drone four-and-a-half stars out of five. The bundle includes the drone, controller, spare batteries, and a carry case.

When our cameras editor, Timothy Coleman, got his hands on the DJI Mini 4K, he was quickly impressed by the 4K video quality, fantastic feature set for beginners, and the value for money. The drone boasts 4K resolution support, 2x video support, and Level 5 wind resistance. Additionally, the inclusion of dynamic movements such as Helix, Circle and Boomerang is guaranteed to set your shots apart from the rest.

There are some trade-offs to buying a budget drone, though, and for this particular model, that comes in the form of no object-collision sensors or subject tracking. If you're more keen on flying and capturing aerial photography, then the absence of these won't be an issue.

If you're looking for something more advanced, then have a look at our guide to all the best drones. We also have a best DJI drones buying guide if you're certain about the brand.
