Looking for incredible drone deals this Amazon Deal Days 2024? Whether you’re a hobbyist, aspiring photographer, or tech enthusiast, what Amazon claims is its “biggest sales event of the year so far” is a good opportunity to score high-quality drones at unbeatable prices. We likely won’t see deals this good again until Black Friday 2024. So if you can’t wait another nearly two months, jump on these drone deals now.
If you like what you see though, you don’t have a lot of time to think about it. Most of the deals below will only be there through Oct. 9 at 11:59 p.m. PT.
But with that, I’ve found the best drone deals, as well as deals on drone-adjacent products that drone pilots will love:
I will add, the standalone DJI Air 3 is also on sale for 20% off, which brings the $1,099 price tag down to $874. If you’re on a budget, this is also a killer deal. Though, you only get the DJI RC-N2 controller, which isn’t such a seamless flying experience.

Though I will note: while the Osmo Mobile 6 is excellent for most mobile users, it may not be the best fit for those using larger phones or with heavy cases, as it can struggle to balance heavier setups.

Amazon Deal Days, the fall equivalent to Prime Day, is your chance to grab top-notch tech products at a fraction of the price. Drones, especially from leading brands like DJI, Autel Robotics, and Holy Stone, are often deeply discounted during these sales, making it the perfect time to upgrade or start your drone collection.
In order to be eligible to shop the deals, you must be an Amazon Prime member, which costs $139 per year. However, here’s a tip: sign up for a 30-day free trial of Amazon Prime. That allows you to still shop the deals. From there, you can just cancel your membership within the 30-day period if you decide not to keep it — and avoid paying the $139 for Amazon Prime membership.
Happy flying, and happy savings!
