AR.Drone Tutorials #01 : Indoor Flight Instructions

[@masterdelrap]

wow BEST TECHNOLOGY IVE SEEN AND SMART TECHNOLOGY I AM NOT SURPRISED I EXPETED THEM TO COME UP WITH SOMETHING LIKE THIS

[@Gig540]

Wow just seen this on homepage of KZbin. And I have to say that is the most incredible thing I ever seen. The controls and stability look so simple compared to way an RC heli is controlled. Thumbs up on the programming and thanks for sharing!!

[@Manniac]

Wow... das ist wirklich ne sehr coole Art der Steuerung!

[@vipinjethwani4526]

Very good and funny videos bring a great sense of entertainment!

[@saiftatanaki3076]

not a funny video, thats impressive stuff of how similar this technology was12 years ago to our technology today

[@diablosmith104]

Very good video on how to use the drone. good job, simple and time efficient!

[@OLIVERinMOTION]

i've been imagining this ever since i was young... finally... it's here!!! waaaaah!!! :P

[@x3roxide]

@ChunderThunder1 you've never tried using rc planes/heli's before have you. 12 minutes is actually pretty good, especially for something under 1k usually the only ones you can get around 1/2 hr from is the gliders... and that's if you know how to take advantage of the wind.

[@CHOPPERGUNNER1998]

@dirostudios parrot is a french company so it comes from europe and can be bought outside of the states

[@Maxandeva-s4v]

MAN THAT WAS THE BEST THING EVER!! I loved that tune also!

[@becomepostal]

I have an iPhone and several RC helicopters, but not this "AR Drone". Currently I believe that you can't properly control this nice little flying machine with the iPhone because you can't feel the sticks of the controller and you have to look at the screen sometimes. Now that I said that, I'd like to get testimonials to tell me where I stand... Am I right or wrong ?

[@omarcorrea]

I saw this at CES 2010, it was awesome. I would love to review it on our site.

[@rifleman1002]

@MrDahve there was a shadow for two seconds, untill the light overcome the block of the UAV. The lighting was everywhere, so a shadow was not there. Its kindof like standing in a stadium. Instead of one dark shadow, you get 4 very dim shadows.

[@DrEvilAce]

Is it nessesary to have a wi-fi connection all the time to fly the drone?

[@lizardizzle]

That thing actually has amazing stability. I'm impressed. Unfortunately, KZbin is not the place for intelligent responses.

[@yurme101]

Give it 45 mins. to fully charge.On a single charge, it last 15 mins. U can by another spare battery or buy enough battery, to give you a full hour. There's a camera on the bottom, and it can give you a split screen view of front w/ bottom views. Brookstone stores sale it for 299.95 and accessories.

[@terminator6267]

this is the best piece of aero engineering i've seen move....this is priceless but the machine isn't i bet :D

[@SilentAssassin333]

Amazing... but what we need next is batteries with higher capacities... almost like 20 to 30 times the current ones. Also, I wonder how many batteries you consumed while making these shots.

[@williamwilbur]

I love my AR.Drone as soon as you get the hang of it guys its great fun just set all the settings to low at the start and fly outside first.

[@lukewazea2k7]

@asteris145 no, it can be done with anything that has wi-fi and the application needed to fly the drone. Although, to date, only the ipod, iphone and ipad can be used to fly it. There currently working on other mobiles to have the application.

[@ParrotARDrone2]

@DjKasHHA AR.Drone battery last 12 minutes. Of course we recommend you buy additionnal batteries.

[@baboonaiih]

@Corkoth55 It's totally worth the money. ($349.99 CAN) It's either this or a $29.99 Heli that will brake in a few hours. Or you can spend $16,000 on an industrial grade Draganfly RC. So I think i'm going to go for the $349.99 one with the flight stabilizer and autopilot, remote control from Ipod and the defualt controler. Hint hint, it's the best choice.

[@mogwieone]

this has got me in so much trouble, I LOVE IT, tks guys! great product! a must have!

[@jmons1978]

i have been successfully hypnotized by this, i now need it

[@FSXTutorial]

I have a few questions, 1. How much is this very nice product? 2. Do you have to have a iPod, iTouch, or iPad? Does it come with normal controller?

[@BehindThePig]

@5068Christian Yeah you can, because it is controlled from a "wifi" connection from the airplane to the ipod/iphone.

[@shloopy5]

@bastkrug you sure? it definitely looks animated to me! do you think the actual product is a fake?

[@GamingJediPwns]

It looks like one of the coolest flying toys evar!! (yes I spelt ever with an a troll) but I'm guessing the batteries last as long as this video. 4 minutes and they're done.

[@KPSwistak]

I couldn't find anything about that on the internet and I'm wondering if the cameras affect the battery life? Wouldn't it fly longer without them? :> I mean the additional weight and data transmission :) Sorry if I sound noobish, just interested:p

[@footballshorts7123]

What is the name of that app

[@Shorty111R]

Man, I haven't thought a toy was this cool since I was a little kid. Hopefully it works as well as the commercial seems to suggest it does.

[@MufinMcFlufin]

@ArT1Tuvsho I don't think that would work too well, as I remember seeing this in an article on an electronics site, and I'm pretty sure it only has two cameras: forward and below it However, I guess you're free to try and put your own micro cameras on it, and try it out.

[@ParrotARDrone2]

@APACHESTRATHE140 It work with iPhone, iPod touch, iPad.

[@TheAmerind]

that is bad ass, I already have cameras set up around my property but to use this when you hear suspicious noise and to send out the DRONE would be epic, modify the cam for night vision and your set

[@twowheels87]

How does the wi-fi work? do you need to be in a wifi zone? I want to take this up to the mountains and make mountain bike videos. How about a batter backpack for extended flying? Can you mount a go-pro camera to this? What quality of video does it shoot? how much video memory does it have? Is it an SD memory card?

[@DjKasHHA]

@ARdrone thnks i'm from spain, and here I only can buy it at Media Mark they have the exclusive and the drone cost 300 euros, is it normally price in all countries? can I buy it cheaper? sorry my inglish is very bad.

[@Blade18411]

Will this work for a 2nd generation Ipod touch? I'm thinking of getting one but I also wanted to know if it is really easy to break, like if I crash it, will it most likely need replacement parts? Also, why do I keep hearing about how you need to get more than one battery?

[@ParrotARDrone2]

@dbsouza1 AR.Drone is available for iPhone iPod Touch iPad and Android !

[@BANGERS68]

how long do the batts last mate.. and does it come with its own remote or do you have to have an i phone??

[@20Pilotdude]

@ryan11540 no, the ARdrone creates the WiFi network you fly on, (not connected to the internet)

[@madmanlove1]

@ARdrone if you keep replacing the battery after it goes dead, will the engine ever over heat?

[@PolishGuy89]

This is amazing! Only I would prefer actual controls over a touch screen. And yes some Predator Missiles would come in handy.

[@thejellyguy]

O-O

[@CapsLachRS]

AR Drone 2 HD by CX Gaming the recomended app for this? I'm guessing best quality and its the one you're using?

[@myshcoolaccount]

@ARdrone you guys have made the first step for skynet.

[@WeBeYachting]

Great video, thumbs up. Cheers from Sint Maarten

[@LG141602]

Can you guys work on the app for Windows Phone? cause my brother has a Windows Phone and I'm planning to get one with Windows Phone 8

[@LILWHITEISTIGHT]

@ardrone my ar drone keeps randomly cutting out and falling... it has full battery and im only like 5 feet away from it... i have tried it on an android device and apple...what is the problem? is it a user error or defect?

[@SLASH4x4VXL]

Its not wifi like internet. the parrot creates it own wifi and u connect Iphone-Ipad-Ipod and fly within the range of parrot's wifi network :)

[@ruskie20]

@CF9700 The camera is in the ArDrone, not in your device.

[@darkhalo153]

Does it have to be used with wifi? And what is the approximate range?

[@MrJensdv]

Great video! It helped me a lot.

[@james13914]

can u use any ipod with it? and thats better then i thought

[@Mizon1]

@miou118 So, how do you zoom in the maps and photos apps on the iphone? Of course the iphone is multitouch. Take a look at any piano app on there too.

[@shadow41093]

does it work only for iphone and ipad or with other ipod touch???

[@blindmonkey9999]

Is there a way you can control it with bluetooth instead of having to have wifi

[@Coolfwip]

i love this but how much is the actual drone?

[@slayit10]

do you HAVE to have an Iphone or does it come with a remote control?

[@Kaizuma911]

There's no app for the AR Drone anymore? I just purchased it and there's no AR.Drone 2.0 Freeflight.

[@cjellwood]

so it is communicating over 3G or somthinglike that?

[@rogorafederico]

What changes between ar drone and ar drone 2.0 ?? thanks for the reply

[@iacorenx]

wow.. on the iphone i think that the maximum distance to control it is billions of meters!! what does it use to command the ardrone? bluetooth technology (12 mt distance) or what?? infrared? XD

[@Booksareepic]

they always make it look easy in the videos...

[@richardjames26]

awesome video.. i just got version 2.0! still trying to figure out how to fly it..

[@XACTIC_Valour]

@bouchandre im nt saying the products fake but you can clearly see the ar drone is CG.

[@maulerrw]

@dirostudios not outside of US? look up ardroneaustralia ...You were saying?

[@moby323]

I have one of these and a Phantom, and the DJI Phantom blows this out of the water. This thing only goes as far as a wifi signal. The Phantom transmitter has a distance of two miles. And the Phantom can fly 10 meters per second, and is more stable and easier to control.

[@901tsharper]

***** AND - a simple build can boost the wifi about 5 times - need a access point and a battery and do some simple wiring - for my money I got the AR and I love it - getting the phantom next - gotta build up the loot first!

[@MekoWilliamsTV]

alex A. So can you do that with any of the Parrot AR Drones 2.0?

[@philraccio749]

KZbin newscasts

[@Gunner7121]

@ArT1Tuvsho no, its made to use your ipod/iphone as a controler

[@unclebobtech]

Awesome Video

[@myparrots1]

@shiva1055 Where exactly do you see my say i did not know the battery life is so short? I was just saying that for something this expensive they should have use better batteries or supplied extras so you're comment is a fail tbh.

[@Palpatine919]

in the background do you own all those planes and helicopters please reply to my commt

[@Synergy9k]

The auto-stabilization feature is quite impressive.

[@ferny7363]

hey where can u buy one and could u use it with any toch phone

[@rb1003]

That looks so awesome

[@myparrots1]

Got this for my nephew at xmas and the battery lasts just 7/8 minutes, for something this expensive you would have thought they would last longet or they would supply couple free extra batteries.

[@patrickfloresgomez]

Cómo eran tan estables si no eran con gps ?

[@shadowhand56]

@TheASTRALDREAMER I guess it all depends on weather the movie came out first or this product

[@SPAINFALCON]

You can record video from iPhone? In HD? Thanks for answers!

[@killershark152]

So what is the difference between the first and 2.0

[@CPTcarlyle]

How much and where to get it? Whats the maximum distance? Maximum altitude? (Airsoft Applications?)

[@ezecskornfan]

Does the drone have an incorporated camera?

[@spudnick160]

i saw this when i was in melbourne! you might remember me because my brother was crying and didnt want a turn but aventuly did. i also had a go! i want it so bad!

[@robertstojs]

@ARdrone will it ever be upgraded? to aprox 45min?

[@BrownerBoy101]

is there any other rc drones with cameras tht dont use apple devices??

[@helmsplitter0233]

@BattalionOfMars you can literally make a cheaper one from scratch if you know how but it's easy to learn

[@powerkor]

whats the payload capability? any mounted weaponry ?

[@QRcodesArgentina]

Excellent video!!

[@Kisamexyoshi]

The AR Drone has its own wifi system that you can connect to using your iPhone/iPad

[@ChangeTheBetterLife]

Does your Android have to have a cellular service, or do you just need the WIFI?

[@FeeldahVibe1]

or do they already have that as a feature?

[@Jingelbells1993]

where can i buy such an AR.Drone? And how much will it cost?

[@30secondstomarscam]

@dinnerandashow the battery lasts for 15 mins i dont know what the other statistics are

[@DirtyZ914]

Does it need a certain generation of iPod?

[@darkultra]

There seems to be considerable input lag due to the accelerometer control. It would be more fun if there was a dedicated remote control with sticks and HD monitor :) and be able to switch from front faced to ground camera. oohh.. maybe a reeled claw to pick up objects, or ability to drop bombs from the fuselage or something :)

[@kuromatsu01]

Do you have iPhone app idea? You can make your own iPhone app with a software called AppWizard in less than 30 minutes

[@Nick22051]

@trueboss926 no, it works also with an ipod touch and an ipad ;)

[@MillyFilly]

@Wazzuppi You can easily see shadows. I don't know what you're on about.

[@HolyGuyz]

What the Emergency button for? Parachute?

[@HatersNations]

Lets see how long it takes to see a similar invention from the military.

[@Bullet4MyEnemy]

I don't get what the left stick does =\

[@NorinRadd42]

Trop bien ! Je viens d acheter le mien. Un peu dur à piloter au début mais trop super

[@dobbeans]

does it use bluetooth or wifi?
