Systems, computer readable medium and methods for improved boot time for autonomous drones are disclosed. Autonomous drones are disclosed that include an Off State and a Power off State. The Off State appears to a user of the autonomous drone as if the autonomous drone is off, but the Off State maintains some of the autonomous drone's state such as the operating system being loaded in a memory. The autonomous drone enters the Power off State, where all or substantially all the power is turned off, from the Off State based on a timeout or a power level of a battery dropping below a threshold level. The Off State reduces the boot time of the autonomous drone compared with the Power off State. The time reduction is often less than ten seconds, but this time is beneficial for situations where a user would like the autonomous drone to immediately perform photography.
