My first DJI drone was the flagship DJI Mavic Pro that launched in 2016. At the time, it was the brand’s smallest consumer market drone ever made, replacing the bulky DJI Phantom, and that meant it wasn’t cheap at $999 / £999.

It didn’t take long after unboxing it for me to crash it into a wall. I was excited; the controls were inverted. Back then, there was no way I could simply fork out for a replacement drone — but luckily it just needed a new arm rather than a whole new drone (phew).

Since then, DJI has expanded its consumer drone range considerably, from the ultra-lightweight Mini Series to the more accessible Neo Series for casual flyers. The most beginner-friendly of the lot is the DJI Neo, which you can find at Amazon for as low as $139 (was $199) in the US and £113 (was £169) in the UK for the drone itself.
