Parrot PF726203 Bebop 2 Quadcopter Drone with Skycontroller 2/Cockpit FPV

Product Information

It’s a big difference, too, so it’s worth trying out in a large open space, only after you’re a little more comfortable handling the drone. Paired with the Parrot Skycontroller 2 and the Parrot Cockpit glasses, your Parrot Bebop 2 drone reveals new capabilities. Having said that, I purchased this one knowing it would not compare to DJI for camera but wanting a fun, easy to use mid range drone that I wouldn’t lose or break easily and this has done the job for me. With this built-in artificial intelligence, you can now focus on piloting and the Parrot Bebop 2 Power will capture the perfect shot.

The first thing that you notice when you unbox the Bebop 2 is that it is very lightweight – coming in at under 500g. What did get fixed from the original is battery life, mainly because the body supports a larger pack. Parrot has put plenty of effort in to make sure this is a more rounded drone with technology and features to appeal to all pilots. These accessories help to give pilots more flexibility, both in terms of flight time and what they can actually do with the drone.Enjoy high definition image quality via the Parrot Cockpitglasses using your smartphone and the new FreeFlight Pro application. These use the visual recognition and GPS positioning of your smartphone to shoot dramatic ‘dronie’ videos, with pre-programmed camera movements such as ‘Orbit’, ‘Tornado’, ‘Parabola’ and ‘Boomerang’. IMO this was mainly down to software issues of the FFPro flight application which appears to now be stable and safe at version 5.

Check the box at the top of the article for our overall rating for the Bebop 2 FPV package – but suffice to say that we loved the amount of kit you got with this deal. There aren’t any prop guards, so those do feel slightly vulnerable, but you do at least get a spare set included. The Parrot Bebop 2 is a drone that is made of glass fibre housing material and equipped with brushless motors.The first was a preproduction unit that, like the original Bebop I reviewed, occasionally dropped its wireless signal in flight. Enjoy exceptional flight performanceBebop 2 is an ultra-light drone capable of flying in all conditions. Obstacles or hazards will be easily identifiable via live video feedback on your smartphone or tablet with the camera's expansive 180° vision. I’d have preferred a microSD slot, not only for the greater storage capacity but also because it makes getting content off the drone much easier. There’s GPS and GLONASS positioning, ultrasound on the base with visual positioning, and an altimeter.

It's clever, but it's done by using only certain areas of the sensor and lens, so you can end up with a black area from the fish-eye lens as well as rolling shutter artifacts. Parrot bills it as an option for long-distance flight, but it's a better performer at shorter distances and lower altitudes. com is a leading authority on technology, delivering lab-based, independent reviews of the latest products and services.

En España está prohibido volar por encima de 120m de altura y a más de 500m de distancia, el drone sube hasta los 150m (está limitado y no se puede deslimitar) y el alcance es de más de 2km, allá tú.If you don't mind a bigger quadcopter and want to maximize performance on a budget, the DJI Phantom 3 Standard is our Editors' Choice.

What you lose in features (as found in the app) you gain in control but that being said, it is not the greatest feeling controller ever. He also covers almost anything connected to a PC, including keyboards, mice, USB-C docks and PC gaming accessories. You’ll need to adjust the exposure using the shoulder scroll wheel on the controller and this basic adjustment makes it difficult to correctly expose for the entire scene at times.By flying with the FPV goggles, you're totally immersed: explore previously inaccessible places like never before and capture high-quality pictures perfectly. Then there’s the Skycontroller 2 remote control, which makes for much easier piloting than virtual sticks on your phone. This model does do a decent job of taking still selfies, but the YUNEEC Breeze does a much better job of that. A pair of white props go in front and black props in the rear, but you'll need to make sure you're putting the right propeller on the right strut.
