Parrot was pretty creative with the camera stabilization and "gimbal" design on their drones. It performs better than you'd think being that it's all done in software. It also makes for a lot less things to go wrong or get broken.

With my countless hours flying Boeing aircraft from PMDG in Microsoft Flight Sim, I particularly like the ability of this drone to follow flight plans using a simplified analogue of Boeing's LNAV (lateral navigation) and VNAV ( vertical flight profile), that would normally be programmed into the FMS/CDU located in the Boeing flight deck pedestal. Sure wish this Parrot Beebop had a greater range though. I am looking at the Fimi X8 as my next drone purchase, because of its flight plan capability, and a range of up to 4 miles.

Why parrot Didnt upgrade the bebop 2 with a 4k camera and better antennas/range is beyond me. There are things that I like about the bebop that to me are better than that Anafi. Its a sturdier design, very fast, and has equal or better wind resistance imo than the DJI mini, I’ve flown my bebop2 in 35 plus mph winds. An upgrade ( bebop 3?? ) would be a solid winner in my opinion. The real limitation with this drone is the poor range you get in urban areas but aside from that I love it.
@larrybuta7016 жыл бұрын
I bought one of these from Amazon and I love it. Paid $400 and worth every penny. The app is fantastic and brain dead simple to use. To get videos off the drone simply connect to the BeBop's wifi network and transfer the videos to your device. Videos look very good even tho only 1080 rez. The down side is there is only about 7 gigs of space so you have to be diligent about moving videos off and deleting them from the drone afterwards. This is my first drone so will learn from this and perhaps get a dji down the road. But for right now...this is a blast!

@Canyon767 жыл бұрын
I really love your videos even if a bit long and this one is one of your shorter ones haha! One thing I like about your videos is the length because you are so thorough. I'm glad you were able to get more distance on your rural range test up on the mountain away from congestion. I'm getting about the same distance on the beach in Oregon. It's true that Parrots signal scheme does appear to be less solid than DJI's but I'm fine with the range as it is since I fly mostly in open areas with no congestion and within LOS. To me, the range is amazing! I got 1.8 miles out on the Oregon coast which is about the same as what you got. I'd like to know how you got your waypoint feature unless you paid for it. I only got a code for the tracking/Follow Me feature. I have the DISCO as well and I got the waypoint feature with that from the free code they provided but that did not transfer over to the Bebop 2. If you do try the Sport setting again, I highly recommend you test out the FPV mode and use Banked Turn ON. I'm not sure why your cable was falling off of your phone. It seemed fine in your DISCO/TRACKIMO/360 video. Anyway, the Sport mode and Banked Turn ON in FPV will give you a radical departure from regular photography drones and give you the feeling of an actual racer. I'd also turn off Stabilized Horizon too for FPV. The Bebop 2 Power excels at so many different flying options for what it is. This is one of the reasons I got the Bebop 2 Power, to get a feel for racing while still having the ability to do some descent videography at far less the cost of others. I feel the visual tracking features and the automated "smart" shots are all very similar to DJI's. The Mavic and Mavic Air do have a couple others but for the most part I feel they are all the same, but I feel the "smart" shots and tracking features are less intimidating on the Bebop 2 than DJI. The shear amount of features and menues etc. even the layout of the DJI app just seems less simple to me than the FreeFlight app. As for the camera: yes. I am with everyone, the camera is the biggest negative on the Bebop 2. But given a little research and understanding what the Bebop 2 is and what it can be used for and be fun for, I believe it is a better first aerial photography drone for the price. It's small, durable and easy to use. The none mechanical gimbal means there is one less thing to go wrong id you do crash (assuming you don't damage the lens). I don't mind the 1080p video and I feel the stabilization is the best digital stabilization I have seen in ANY camera. That being said, it doesn't match the quality of a mechanical gimbal that's for sure. The one thing I wish Parrot would do is give us a photo editor to easily edit the pictures to get the most extreme distortion I have ever seen in a drone camera. I mean the pictures are rediculous without post production. There is a JPEG SNAP picture mode that takes the distortion out but the quality of the picture is autrocious! That being said, the camera is what makes Parrot unique. Although in the case of drones it is a weakness. If Parrot were to go with a better system it would have to be a mechanical gimbal and I think that would be too much like other brands and Parrot would fail even more. I'm not sure if Parrot can squeeze 4K video out of the system without it being unstabilized. There were some people back in the days of the Bebop 1 and maybe the first Bebop 2's that were able to obtain 4K video out of the camera but it wasn't stabilized. The camera does shoot in 4K in terms of resolution (size) and then crops to 1080p for stabilization. For what it is I like the camera system. I just don't like the photos I don't have a program to edit them. One thing I love about the Bebop 2 Power is that it has one of the longest batteries in it's class for the money. It seems to be a bit longer than the Mavic Pro Platinum. I think for the money the Bebop 2 Power is the best first aerial videography drone available. I feel the features aren't nearly as intimidating compared to the Mavic's. It's less delicate with less moving parts and therefore more durable. The flight time is awesome to help you figure out and practice flying. I do highly recommend that you try the FPV mode. The right trigger on the SC2 will switch between your mobile device camera view and FPV mode. I love flying this thing in FPV with Banked Turn feature turned on! I think I am getting a lot of practice for racing quads. I do hope you can try the FPV mode out again with success. Thanks again!

Parrot told me they would replace the controller with one that had the new style battery. That was over a month ago. Finally they told me to send them my old controller and they would replace it, that was two weeks and two phone calls ago, and I still have heard nothing and I have no controller at all. Might be a good drone as long as you don't trouble with it.

When your bb2 RTH and come in for landing, see your hight in app(what bb think it is). 7ft, when acually12-15 high?? I have my bebop land hard my times, and not finding its true hight after flight of several minutes.

Hi Dustin, in opinion which will be the best between bebop 2 and xiaomi fimi A3. All the best
@DustinDunnill6 жыл бұрын
I haven't tested the A3 yet but I have a feeling Bebop 2.

heya. Just one question cos Im really sold on this. _ALL_ wifi fpv stuff for me has been very limited in range. Does this plug into the transceiver to increase the range? or is it just for power and it uses magic to increase the range? Loved the video. me and a friend were hypnotised for the first time over a prebuilt quad :)

It's just standard wifi here but parrot does a pretty good job with the antennas in the controller and on the drone for ok wifi range

Ok, 2 questions. Using a cell phone on 3D goggles like that do you need an emulator to split the screen and if so what did you use? 2nd question, when you film everything going on with the phone or tablet screen what are your suggestions for that? The flight footage is fantastic!

I noticed on my Android app the waypoints are in meters, but not feet like the Apple app. Probably something people need to know, giving the Apple Freeflight pro app doesn't say.

There's a guy on here named mrkentdotcom that does a lot of Bebop videos go to his channel to get his website and on his website, you can download a PDF chart for free. It's a Meters to feet conversion chart. Also has speed conversions.

Yessir, I know and I'm subscribed to mrkent.com. I was just letting everyone know that to be on the lookout if you switch from iPhone to Android or etc. Android is meter and iPhone is feet. If one was to do a flight plan and get the two confused, it may cause a crash. Appreciate the imput

How did you see the bebop2 turn to rth position after the signal to the controller was lost ? Regards

Dustin : What settings did you use when you flew over a mile in this test? Did you have WiFi off and airplane mode on? Just wondering what settings to use to get max range. I am using an Android tablet with USB cable attached to skycontroller 2 but I have had my WiFi turned on . What should I do to get the most out of my skycontroller2 ? Your advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks : Dave

Parrot Bebop 2 vs DJI Spark ---- which one is the best in your opinion? If you absolutely had to choose one and that would be the last drone you ever buy?
@DustinDunnill6 жыл бұрын
It just mainly depends if you want twice the flight time per charge or a better camera & more compact craft.

Beebop 2 Power has a beefier battery, it is not compatible with earlier models. More cells? Higher voltage? Whatever the reason it can manage a bigger range but you can't mix and match batteries with earlier models.

@@reconnaissancesquadron222 bebop2power batteries work in bebop2 (and vice versa). Both drones are essentially the same. However, the chargers cannot be mixed. You must not use bebop2power charger for bebop2 batteries because the charger works with higher voltage. But you can use bebop2 charger for power batteries. However, they will only be charged to 90-95%.
@DustinDunnill6 жыл бұрын
FYI, my bb2 power battery has a slightly different battery connector not allowing the mix. Likely to prevent using the higher voltage power battery on bb2 or just for profits sake on parrots part
@stefant.9376 жыл бұрын
@@DustinDunnill bebop 2 charging cable actually fits the newer power batteries (the "power" charging cable just doesn't fit the standard bebop2 batteries). However, the Bebop2 charger is not able to do a full charge (bebop2 charger only charges to 4.2V, while power batteries can take more than 4.3V). Still it's perfectly possible to use power batteries in standard bebop2 drone.
@DustinDunnill6 жыл бұрын
That makes sense as to not over charged bb2 original batteries. I never got around to trying the power batteries in regular bb2 but if you can verify it works 👍👍
