smooth and fluid video experience

Bebop 2 can only do one at a time through the app
the camera habitually overexposed bright scenes
the rechargeable battery inside is not only convenient
Crashes could eventually take their toll on the drone
considerably more expensive
the ease of use will overweight the disadvantages
The app is a little confusing at first
awful lot to like in the Parrot Bebop 2
Skycontroller black is large and heavy
The lack of subtlety is also annoying
Very limited suburban operating range
Barrel distortion from the wide angle lens is evident
the video feed from the app is actually only 720p
image quality is a little lacking
the Bebop 2 Power is found lacking is image quality
still images are also a little disappointing
lacking detail and vibrant colours
It tended to drift and bob quite a bit during takeoff and landing
unstable and unsteady that they were nearly useless
the range is only 1000 feet
It relies on a third party smartphone or tablet as a controller
No cherry-picked units sent by manufacturers
it s only available on iOS for now
depressing that it wasn t the Full Self-Driving beta
EV prices are going in the wrong direction
it didn t return home after 60 seconds
is still no option for removable storage
lack of folding rotor arms
image quality is not as good as some of the higher-priced competitors
Parrot Bebop 2 FPV was a manufacturer loaned
flimsy connector and Velcro strap
isn't your only option for physical controls
it misses the mark
no microSD card slot for expansion
a fault in the early models and not a typical experience
the camera itself does not move when you pan and tilt the view
habit of slipping down slightly in the case
Only one battery can be charged at a time
Spare batteries are not cheap
no manual panning and tilting to worry about
Would an SD card slot have really bumped up the price
Parrot comes off poorly with its grainy clips
quality starts to suffer once you add software processing into the mix
it looks a bit boring
unit is harder to control at high speeds
video is limited to 1080p at 30FPS
the battery life is a bit lacking
the lens is actually pretty vulnerable at the front of the drone
hard to switch away from a Pixel and its camera
smart string lights
flying too far from home
limited to 720 resolution
Prop installation is a bit of a pain
some of these modes require an in-app purchase
fisheye lens is susceptible to lens flare
image quality is startlingly poor
2's choppy connection and substandard camera quality
joysticks are used to control the drone during take-off and landing
USB cable to my iPhone and sky controller
there lag in the video
Toll Roads in Portugal
Wifi enabled drones often suffer from range and interference issues
fisheye lens on the Bebop 2 is prone to heavy lens flare
Too many are simply trying to capitalize on affiliate revenue
the main body is still made of plastic which results in the Bebop 2 feeling a bit flimsy in your hand
encompass state-of-the-art sensors
futuristic feeling to the design
It only takes 55 minutes to recharge a single battery
there are actual buttons on the shoulders of the transmitter
