Your tito is flying in from Dubai next month and wants aerial shots of the family reunion in Batangas. The cousin who "knows drones" has sent three links with three different prices, all claiming to be the cheapest DJI in the Philippines. Before you send anybody money, you need one clear list: which model, which bundle, and what that price actually includes.
This is that list for the DJI drones we sell, with every bundle and what it adds. VMI Direct is an authorized seller of DJI in the Philippines. Prices are from our store in November 2026 and change with DJI's pricing, so check the product page before you buy.

Which Drone Fits Which Budget
Around ₱15,000: DJI Neo 2
The cheapest way into DJI. It launches from your palm, follows you hands-free and records 4K. Think selfie video on a hike, not cinematic real estate shots. Read our DJI Neo 2 review roundup.
₱23,000 to ₱26,000: Flip or Lito X1
Both are proper camera drones with a 1/1.3-inch 48MP sensor. The Flip wraps its propellers in guards, which is reassuring around people. The Lito X1 adds LiDAR and longer flights. Our Flip vs Lito X1 comparison breaks it down.
₱40,000 and up: a Fly More Combo
The Flip Fly More Combo adds extra batteries and the DJI RC 2 controller with a built-in screen. If you will fly often, extra batteries matter more than any spec. See our battery life guide.
What the Price Does Not Include
- A microSD card for the Flip, which records to a card.
- Propeller guards for the Lito X1, which are sold separately in some markets.
- Extra batteries on Standard bundles. One battery means one short session.
- Care Refresh or accident cover, if you want it, bought separately through DJI.
- Your phone as the screen on the RC N3 bundles.
Spending Money Where It Shows on Screen
A common mistake is stretching the budget for a bigger drone and then flying it twice because one battery lasts one short session. For most families and travel creators, the better split is a mid-range drone plus extra batteries and a fast microSD card. Footage quality also depends on light more than price: a Flip flown at golden hour over Taal will out-shoot a pricier drone flown at harsh noon. Spend on what gets you in the air more often.
Before You Buy From Anyone
- Check the bundle name carefully. "Flip" can mean the RC N3 version, the RC 2 version or the Fly More Combo, with very different prices.
- Ask whether the unit is a global or regional version and who handles warranty locally.
- Read CAAP's rules before your first flight; our CAAP drone rules guide summarizes them, and flying in rain and wind covers typhoon season.
