TL;DR: As of October 21, get the Ninja Dragons Blade X 4K Dual-Camera Drone for just $79.97 — that's 60% off.


Drones: Love them or leave them? While they’re celebrated for groundbreaking photography capabilities and innovations, they usually cost a small fortune. That makes getting one as a toy for yourself or a gift for someone special next to impossible.

Check out one of our deals for a very basic model: The Ninja Dragons Blade X drone is on sale for $79.97 (reg. $199.99) through October 23.

Basic controls, dual cameras, and a modest range

The retail value ($199.99) is a good indication of this Blade X’s abilities — it simply won’t operate like models that cost over $2,000. However, it’s a cost-effective option for anyone interested in drones but not able to make such a large purchase.

Another perk? The Blade X is simple for beginner-level users to take flight. Press the one-key takeoff button to get into the air and use the basic remote control for 360º movement. An electronic stabilization system helps keep the drone steady in flight or for taking photos and videos.

Speaking of which, you’ll need to connect your smartphone to use the front 4K camera and bottom 720p camera. View real-time images and capture anything interesting you see in the moment. The Blade X has up to twelve minutes of flight time and a range of up to 490 feet.

Great for adults and children alike

The Ninja Dragons Blade X may be your chance to experiment with drone photography or just fly for fun. Content creators may find tons of uses for a drone with angles that wouldn’t be possible otherwise. But let’s be real: Who wouldn’t love to fly a drone? 

This model’s basic functionality may also be suitable for children with proper supervision. Beyond a means of entertainment, a drone could also teach them about STEM topics like engineering, robotics, and aerodynamics. 

Grab the simple Ninja Dragons Blade X dual-camera drone while it’s price-dropped to $79.97 (reg. $199.99) until October 23 at 11:59 p.m. PT — no coupon is needed.
