A Parrot AR Drone suddenly decides to keep going up, drone get's lost over buildings. Drone was controlled via iPhone 4, video filmed on an HTC Desire HD. Drone was eventually recovered.
The drone does a safe landing when connection is lost instead of hovering. As if you have pressed the landing button. Also the Drone didn't get a mind of its own. It simply tried a soft decent and the wind took it away,
I don't think drinking was the problem in this case, How can they release these onto the market with the amount of bugs they have. It just dosnt seem right. I have one now but i won't fly outside as i live in a built up area. Any place i go i can pick up multiple wi fi signals and the number of main roads and trees not to mention the international air port a few miles away I just couldn't run the risk without a tether or solid fail safe. Pity they don't warn you about this before you buy them.
