AR Drone unboxing and first flight

Finally got my AR Drone in the mail today. This is the unboxing and first flight. It did OK, but after a few uses, here are my gripes.
1-Battery sucks. I was just starting to figure out the controls and it was time to re-charge. At the very least they could include a second battery in the box.
2-The EPP is nice and light, but still relatively frail. One of the struts on the indoor hull broke after a pretty modest fall from about 4 feet onto carpet.
3-The unbelievably bad colours on the outdoor hulls. Blue and orange? Really?
That's about it for now. The rest is all good. The "fun" and "holy crap that's cool" factors are through the roof. I look forward to making many more videos with my new favourite toy.

Cool! How immediate is the control response time with the bluetooth(?) through the smart phone? How long on one charge? I want one!
