Parrot has been presented in the world of drones in recent years with high-quality products that were always lame in some element against its competitors or against herself. Whether by price, by some feature of their drones ... leaving a bittersweet taste mouth what could have been but was not. I could try all Parrot catalog so far and has always left me: would pay € 900 for this? This drone is fine but ... do not you need a control? Where is the FPV? For those who wanted to see a Parrot amending its shortcomings IN THEORY today is your lucky day.
Let me make clear that I have not tried any of the products that I will speak. I'll just mention to what they have announced these days the guys parrot and my impressions, leaving all the necessary information to give you an idea of what is coming at us. Anyway Parrot say that what makes usually do quite well within the limitations they have, and having tried all his previous catalog ... because I think we will not be surprised at the quality of these products. At least I think so.
The first news that had already been sniffing recent months with price decreases, is the output of a small knob for Parrot Bebop Drone 2 (the Skycontroller 2) and glasses FPV (the Cockpitglasses Parrot). Basically have reduced the size of Skycontroller 2 leaving the essentials (which seems very successful, as it was a brutal "behemoth"), they have put FPV glasses and have put a competitive price. If, Parrot putting competitive prices lol ... that's a novelty. The fact is that the pack with the drone, FPV and control would remain at 700 €. Its a lot of money? If it Is expensive, of course? if we compare with the rest of the market, quality and what it offers ... Not really. If the command and FPV work as they should (which I do not think anything complicated) and considering that the drone is the same as've tried because I think that finally Parrot has a workhorse to stand up to Disc Jockey DJing within land of the hobby.
The other big news is the turn have given its approach to the mini drones. Now Parrot has launched a small hybrid drone aircraft and the Parrot Swing, and other mini offers a range of accessories to entertain you. But this is not the most important, most important is that finally have released an official control command to control their minis (according to the information would be compatible with all but the Rolling Spider, will comment). This control would cost 39 €. Yes, it may be expensive, but if in the end it works as it should work I think we would face one of the best ranges drones market (watch Hubsan Parrot, which is already there to catch you).
Turning to mention the drones itself, the Parrot Swing is what interested me most. We are facing a hybrid between cuadricóptero and RC plane trying the best of each use and can switch between different modes (air / cuadricóptero) and make things as interesting as taking off vertically like a normal off drone and then move planning on his airplane mode. Really interesting and at a price that, although high, it may not be unreasonable if he really has the quality it seems, and this of 139 € with the physical control included.
Additionally, if you need to purchase some rc drone accessories, you can search via Banggood, which is one of the wholesale platform to provide affordable prices, such as lipo voltage checker, mini camera keychain, etc.
