Parrot AR.Drone Review - Episode 8 MaxAmps.com Minute

[roketman600]

Will this fit into the AR drone 2.0?

[MaxAmpsMedia]

@roketman600 Yes

[cclayhammer]

Santa Claus gave me a Brookstone Parrot AR Drone for Christmas (Dec. 2011). I haven't taken it out of the box yet, but in addition to the upgradable power packs, can I pimp it out with stronger motors and a more powerful WiFi transceiver?

[MaxAmpsMedia]

@cclayhammer You will have to do some searching but there are other things you can upgrade if you look on Google.

[ruben25617]

the are worth around 200 bucks

[williamwilbur]

it wont fly properly outside.

[diabeticnigga47]

Dear Santa

[pudamaan1002]

So the last pack last for 19 seconds?

[JackDaniels2230]

okay, ive read on some websights that when just hovering near the ground it will last up to 45 minutes. is this information true?

apparently not......

[joeyvdberg]

Can u please give me a link to the product? I would like to buy a better battery. Thnx

[MTHKITEBOARDS]

do those things fly good in 20 mph wind?

[vekku1989]

@MTHKITEBOARDS No. Max 10 mph, after that it get's really tricky with a big chance destroying the drone.

[XtremelyAnonymous420]

id love to get this much run time, but i dont want to dampen speed and manveurability to do so. i hope you guys come out with lightweight version of this sometime soon.

[MaxAmpsMedia]

@XtremelyAnonymous420

We have lightweight 1300 packs that give you more runtime check out maxamps.com

[wi11y1960]

Does the AR work with the android yet?

[MaxAmpsMedia]

@wi11y1960

Yes, you can find the app on the Android market.

[cocobrother]

Has the Military embraced this concept? It shore looks like it would dampen fuel cost.

[Peddobjoernen]

Get 30% longer flying time, make it tri motor!

[MIKEY19900]

How far as in distances will this fly???

[Eddieost0309]

is this the same thing seen at the ces 2011?

[free2drm]

Jason is hot!

[reznor98]

anyone else notice the little mouse in the next to the wall @ 42 seconds? this thing must be QUIET if a house mouse isnt concerned.

[PrepareForDisasters]

i did not hear the longest run time

[MaxAmpsMedia]

@PrepareForDisasters

Over 24 minutes depending on how hard you fly.

[245akolmane]

Whats the maximun height that this drone can fly? Whats the max distance also? is it possible to fly this without an iphone ipad or itouch?

[assmunch1]

@245akolmane I have flown one up to 200 feet high, but you have to do it in totally calm conditions, because its ability to fight the wind just isn't there. If you take the foam bumper off you could fight the wind much better though. I have hit the emergency cutoff before at 40 feet and it drops like a rock, but with the foam on, it is indestructible. Landed on the roof once and after the motors stopped it slid off, and hit the ground on edge and bounced harmlessly like a rubber ball.

[Tuganotube]

@assmunch1 sorry to disagree! i love my drone but... each time i go for a fly something comes back broken! Literally! (i have as much as 3 hours of flight only). The outdoor hull is super super fragile! i still love my drone though! (plus: this run time thing can really be a deal-braker for a lot of people!)

[assmunch1]

@Tuganotube I wasn't flying with the outdoor hull, as you stated. I specifically said "with the foam on it..."

[vekku1989]

@Tuganotube I am flying almost a year with my Drone, and i didn't have to replace anything. If you break the outdoor hull, you really did something wrong and the crash was way to hard. With 4 motors, you know that battery's wont run to long. (Standard battery pack). Maybe a nice hint: When flying outdoor, don't select outdoor hull, keep the option off. It gives a bit more balance to the drone and reduces the chance of crashing/ emergency cut outs.

[en3rgy187]

+1 for an Epic HUGE plastic fence! That's the US national defense budget in one fence!

[Tuganotube]

@en3rgy187 Indeed! LOL!

[intothefray]

this dude is so friggin' cute !

[motabbirh]

Awesome

[MaxAmpsMedia]

This LiPo pack will work with the stock charger. We include the same balancing and charge plug so you charge out of the box and are ready to fly.

[Asovo]

why my 2600mah from you guys just new only can hover for 21 mins??

[Asovo]

wait, after I see this video , so I just order one 2600mah form you guys at maxamps.com

but I forgot to ask and to make sure. do I have do anything to make ar.drone fit the batteries and work with it? and can I charge by Ar.drone's charge?

thanks

[tavitooo]

El de 2,600 cuanto tiempo de durabilidad da para volar el Drone? estoy interesado en comprar varios!!!

[CoreyMFR]

So....... what was the flight time?

[Ec130Rhine]

well i think the 1300 pack will be better chose to get 12min this good so you can cold down the motors so you wont heat them up to long n it mite save your motor for longer life time because i think if u use it for 20mins i think u will shorten the motors life because u are flying it longer just what i think

[Alpha2261]

@Ec130Rhine Yeah, I think that's why they said not to use other batteries.

[jammaxamps]

Simply double the runtime of the 1300 pack.

[GoatZilla]

@jammaxamps Really? So if I put a 5200mAH pack on there, I'll get quadruple the runtime?

[Resistoon]

You didn't say much flight time the 2600 mAh battery gives the Parrot AR Drone.
