Parrot Bebop Drone Camera- incredibly easy to fly, amazing video quality [Review]

Full review at http://www.redferret.net/?p=47719 . The new Parrot Bebop Drone Camera is a perfect example of a flying camera which offers not just great quality video footage, but also unparalleled ease of flying. It really is easy enough for just about anyone over the age of 8 to use. First impressions The Bebop is impressively light out of the box, at just 390 grams in weight, which is even more impressive when you consider it's carrying a 14 megapixel HD camera, with a 3 axis stabilization system built in. Along with 8 GB of on-board video storage. The quad (sorry drone, as the makers insist on calling it) comes with two 1200mAh batteries in the box, each capable of around 12 minutes flight time The batteries, which are the black blocky components on the top of the main camera fuselage, are easy to remove and replace, which means oodles of flight time with sequential charging. We also liked the fact that there are substantial plastic lightweight bumpers on the craft to protect the props and also protect anything you might hit with the quad. Nicely designed. In use It's the camera and the software behind it which is the standout feature on the product. No actually, that's not exactly true. It's the camera, the software and the mind-blowingly easy flying that really all work together to make this such a pleasure to use. You pilot the thing using a smartphone or tablet computer (using the free Flight 3.0 app on Android or iOS) and the software is so easy it's amazing. The app contains lots of really nice touches to make it fun and simple. There's a one button take off and landing button, which makes the most tricky parts of flight a no-brainer. Just press and you're up and flying, another press and the craft descends safely from any height. Brilliant. You also have an Emergency button and a Return to Home button for those times when things get out of hand, or you lose sight of where your craft is. Of course this is no guarantee you won't lose your quad, but it's an extra measure of safety. The really cool thing about the camera is how well it shoots no matter how jerkily you pilot from the ground. The software has some pretty amazing stabilization code built in, which keeps the video rock steady, even when the quad is rocking, which is something no other quadcopter of this price offers. Combined with the amazing zero distortion 180 degree fish eye lens, means you can grab some superb video from your flights. We weren't able to try it outside in our launch day test, but the video which is already surfacing shows just how cool this setup is. There are a lot of reasonable priced quadcopters with cameras coming on to the market nowadays, and we're getting more and more impressed with how the technology is maturing. From the early days of impossible to fly quads, through standout products like the Phantom Vision and now to this Parrot, the whole market is starting to soar. The Bebop with its dual indoor (sensors) and outdoor (GPS) stability systems takes things to a new level. Price: £429.99 (with SkyController - £769.99) Full review at http://www.redferret.net/?p=47719
