We’ve all got a jones for drones, but not all of us have the space or cash to hang up a 5-foot-wide quad-copter in our garage. The SKEYE Nano, now available in a Batwing-worthy shade of black, solves both problems, small enough to fit in the palm of your hand, and at $39.99 it’s cheap enough to keep cash in your pocket.

You can literally throw the SKEYE into the air where it’ll automatically calibrate and hover awaiting your command, making it perfect for beginners and experts alike. In fact, it includes three flight modes: beginner, intermediate, and advanced, with a 6-axis flight control system and adjustable gyro that makes aerobatic flips and maneuvers as easy as playing your favorite video game. Being stealthy doesn’t mean you can’t see it — with an array of built-in LEDs it’s ideal for night flights, and the included set of 4 replacement rotor blades offers plenty of room for learning to fly.

A fully equipped drone that can fit in a fanny pack? Stocking: stuffed, for just $39.99 at Cult of Mac Deals.
