Apple improves its iPhone cameras every year. However, until Cupertino’s geeks figure out how to make the device levitate, there are some things it simply cannot achieve, such as capturing aerial footage. That’s where a dual-camera drone like the Ninja Dragon Alpha Z Pro comes in handy.

During our December Deal of the Day event, you can get a Ninja Dragon Alpha Z Pro for $79.99, but this price drop is only available today.

A 4K drone designed for beginners

The Alpha Z Pro puts 4K aerial footage on your iPhone in a concise package. This quadcopter features a headless mode that ensures you don’t need to recalibrate it every time you launch. It also offers a one-key return function, bringing it back safely with minimal fuss. Plus, with four control channels and a six-axis gyroscope, the Alpha Z Pro will stay steady, making it an excellent choice for new drone pilots.

Connecting the Alpha Z Pro to your iPhone is easy. Simply download Ninja Dragon’s companion app and hook your phone to the included remote controller. From there, you can command your drone for nine minutes in-air at up to 300 feet. Then, when your flight comes to an end, you can recharge the battery within 90 minutes. It folds into a discreet package that’s easy to move, so you have it handy when you need it.

Once you get the drone in the air, you can stream gorgeous 4K footage straight to your iPhone. The wide-angle lens takes in a broad scope of footage, ideal for capturing landscapes and offering a great view of your subject before coming down to earth. The belly camera points straight down so you can capture detail or get a new perspective on the structures in front of you.

Save on the Ninja Dragon Alpha Z Pro drone

Drone footage can add an extra layer of polish to any video project. During our Deal of the Day event, you can add the Ninja Dragon Alpha Z Pro to your photography kit. It’s on sale for $79.99 or 60% off through December 3, 2022.

Prices subject to change.
