The editors liked

  • You probably don’t need us to tell you that the Parrot AR Drone 2.0 is obscenely fun. It’s unadulterated silliness will bring a smile to your face as soon as you lift off
  • Thanks to the easy controls
  • You just tilt your phone to move. Like the first model
  • It comes with a polystyrene protective bumper you can put around the blades
  • Making it safe to fly indoors and bug all your workmates with
  • Bu
  • Bloody good fun
  • Reasonably easy to control
  • Fast and agile
  • Hugely entertaining at first
  • IOS and Android compatible
  • Integrated HD camera

The editors didn't like

  • That 720p (1280x720 pixels per image) resolution HD camera sounds magnificent
  • And we love how wide angle the lens is
  • But in real world use we found the image was a little bit lacking in detail - and the camera really suffers from changes in light levels
  • Which happens all too readily when you’re flying the Parrot AR Drone 2.0 up to giddy new heights.And while we like the updated new control app
  • Expensive
  • Improved battery life is still a bit short
  • Losing it is a constant worry
  • Glitchy app
  • Shortlived entertainment lifespan

  • Abstract:  The AR.Drone is a four-rotor, fixed-size, unmanned aircraft that includes an aerial photography system. It is ready to fly as soon as the drone's applications have been installed on your Apple or Android smart phone or tablet. A three-axis stabilization s...

  • Easy to fly, On-screen joysticks work well, Flying over rooftops and higher altitudes is cool
  • Easy to crash, easy to harm defenseless houseplants, Uncertainty in settings, uncertainty on how to use the GPS to plot course best in suburban or urban settings, Easy to fat-finger the Emergency button and crash land
  • At $300, the Parrot AR.Drone 2.0 Elite Edition isn't cheap — especially when you add in extra batteries and the Flight Recorder GPS attachment. Even so, this drone is mostly easy to fly and operates as advertised. Video quality is reasonably good, althou...

  • Abstract:  There isn't a whole lot of wiggle room between toy helicopters/quadricopters and enthusiast remote controlled helicopters. The former are inexpensive toys that often cost less than $100 and are often really difficult to fly. The latter are extremely expen...

  • As far as drones go, youre not going to get much more accessible or inexpensive as the AR Drone. But its still three bills—and Parrots shortcomings on service arent instilling consumer confidence. Updated software is meant to fix the loss-of-altitude...

  • Extremely easy to fly, 720p HD recording capability, Altitude control sensor, Absolute control, Loads of user adjustable parameters, Several different games available, Cheap spare parts, Motion control features for video recording
  • Still pricey at $299, Video and control delay not completely eliminated
  • Parrot once again succeeds at making a quadro-copter for the masses. The AR.Drone 2.0 is a great RC machine that provides tons of fun at a reasonable cost. The fact that anyone, no matter the RC flying skill level, can jump right into flying one is a g...

  • Abstract:  The Parrot AR Drone 2.0 is the most expensive remote control toy money can buy; it's a smartphone controlled quadrocopter with a 720p HD camera , and it's ridiculously fun, but quite temperamental. It's an enthusiast level device with an affordable $300 p...

  • Overall, the AR Drone 2.0 is pretty freaking awesome. It's the coolest toy for your iPhone or iPad you can buy. If the price doesn't scare you, then we think the AR Drone 2.0 is a much better purchase than any other iOS helicopter on the market because it...

  Published: 2015-07-14, Author: Brian , review by: itbusiness.ca

  • Abstract:  Drones have quickly captured a place in the public imagination when it comes to cool gadgets. Much of that work can be credited to Paris-based Parrot. Since 2010 Parrot has been selling drones, focusing on a camera feature that gave people the opportunity...

  • Abstract:  Remember the cool but wacky Parrot AR.Drone ? That flying "quadricopter" controlled by an iPad , iPhone or iPod Touch is back for round two. The AR.Drone 2.0, hitting Australian shelves in June , now records HD video, is easier to control and is less like...
