Holiday memories are precious and should be remembered — but when you're in the moment, it can be difficult to remember to take photos. This Force Flyers Card Drone with Hi-Res Wi-Fi FPV Camera is a clever workaround to designating someone as the family reunion photographer: it's a follow-me style drone that zips around, capturing everything from selfies to group photos.

Compact and lightweight, this handy drone folds into a package you can slip into your back pocket. It includes features like a selfie button that allows it to take off, fly for ten feet, and take three photos of you in rapid succession that you can then review and approve straight from your phone. There's also a visual identification feature that lets you "follow" anything/anyone you select.

You can enjoy real-time recording for up to 12 minutes of your holiday festivities and capture any moment within a 164 to 230-foot range. Plus, it recharges in just about 60 minutes and is ready to go for the next party you're attending.

Usually, this Force Flyers Card Drone with Hi-Res Wi-Fi FPV Camera is $69.99, but it's on sale now for $49.99 — but for a limited time, use coupon code BFSAVE20 for an extra 20% off the sale price, bringing the cost down to $39.99.
