Summer 2024 is here, and The Drone Girl has compiled the best deals you’ll find on drones — and drone adjacent products. Whether you’re a seasoned drone enthusiast or a beginner looking to explore the world from above, we’ve got you covered with the ultimate guide to the best summer 2024 drone sales.
Among the standouts? A rarely-seen 40% discount on Autel — which offers up a compelling option for people seeking a drone alternative to DJI. Of course, DJI is trying to seduce pilots with incredible deals of its own — particularly notable given concerns that some members of Congress want to ban future sales of DJI drones.
So with that, here is The Drone Girl’s ultimate guide to the best summer 2024 drone sales:

Enrolling in Drone Pilot Ground School is your first step towards earning your Drone Pilot’s License and legally earning money flying drones in the U.S. It’s one of the top Part 107 test prep courses and comes highly recommended by Sally French, aka Drone Girl, who used it to ace the FAA’s Aeronautical Knowledge Test.
Save up to 20% off with DJI Mid-Year Sale
The DJI Mid-Year Sale 2024 offers discounts on popular drones and gimbals at the official DJI Store, with savings of up to 20%, free gifts, and additional promo codes.
Don’t need another free water bottle? You might be better off shopping for DJI products through Amazon. There, you can really maximize your savings and earn 5% back with the Amazon Visa card. Prices are the same as what you’ll get on DJI’s store, aside from the lack of free gifts — but 5% back might turn out more valuable anyway. After all, 5% back on a $1,500 drone is $75.
The best deal of DJI’s Mid-Year sale is 20% off the DJI Air 3 Fly More Combo. The DJI Air 3, features dual 48MP cameras for wide-angle and 3x medium telephoto shots and 4K/60fps HDR video, professional-grade capabilities like a 46-minute flight time, and omnidirectional obstacle sensing. Also, it’s a lightweight drone at 720g making it an ideal choice for serious photographers looking for a powerful yet more affordable alternative to high-end models like the DJI Mavic 3 Pro.
And now during the sale, you can purchase the DJI Air 3 Fly More Combo for $1,239 (usually $1,549).
