Have you tried the simulation app for the A R drone? the latest version has buildings that you can overfly and inspect using the 2 onboard cameras, it is very good and FREE. It gives you a great 'feeling' for the drone.

2 cameras on the Parrot drone one forward one down controlled from your tablet both HD 1080p cameras.

Please don't rush me, by the way plenty of vids on youtube just search ar drone there are some great ones there. Rog

I have not taken a video to upload yet, upgrading the Parrot drone in various ways and adding a Go Pro camera looking to the side. I've been busy having surgery for my cancer etc, I will post video asap Rog

The latest upgradw to the Ar drone simulator app now has houses on it and allows fluing my new business in simulation mode over building structures, it's very cool someone on the sim team must have read my post because the buildings are English half timbered farm buildings Rog

Yesif you use aUSB memory stick THE IMAGE IS REALLY GOOD HD 1080P video and HD photographs. because of timelag over wi-fi recording to your tabley is not as crisp and it judders.

The AR Drone is well up to the job but I've made improvements that include higher rated batteries. Video quality is very good if you use the USB port and aemory stick that gives better quality thah recording on tablet or phone which gives a fast timelapsed effect but still good quality I think...

Gret I hope you enjoy it. Rog

should be ANSMANN!

Good luck the one I bought is an ABSMANN racing 2.0SE

I found it on ebay (UK) in your money about $60.00 Regs Rog

I've also msnaged to obtain a balance charger that has an add-on board allowing 3 li-po's to be charged simultaineously from mains or car battery :-)

Yeas the connectors look good. I've ordered them. thry're reasnably priced and will save me the bother. Thanks for the info. Rog

Re flight time & concentration I used to do radio controlled helicopters and made a platform for the transmitter that hangs around my neck and clips onto my belt the swivel clip allows me to ue the accelerometer for control. If I get tired I just do hands off and let it hover.
