Bebop Drone 2

Quality Construction: The Bebop Drone 2 features glass fiber reinforced (15%) ABS and foam construction. Its feather-weight ABS reinforced structure (17.6oz/500g) makes Parrot Bebop Drone 2 robust and safe. It uses four brushless out-runner motors for the propellers. The four 3-blade auto-block propellers are made of polycarbonate. The Bebop Drone 2 is also fitted with anti-vibration bumpers on the feet for safe landings.

Advanced Processors: The Bebop Drone 2 navigation computer features a Parrot P7 dual-core CPU, quad-core GPU and 8 GB of Flash Memory. All are fixed on a magnesium shelf that acts as a radiator and electromagnetic shielding.

MIMO Dual-Band WiFi Connectivity: The Parrot Bebop Drone 2 features built-in dual-band WiFi (802.11 a/b/g/n/ac) and is fitted with dual dipolar antennas allowing it to handle both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz MIMO frequencies. With built-in WiFi and transmission power of 21dBm, it can generate its own WiFi 802.11 network up to 984' (300 meters). Depending on the network interference, you can select the frequency of your choice.

Flying: The Parrot Bebop Drone 2 can ha a maximum horizontal speed of 18 m/s and max climb spped of 6 m/s. This speed may vary according to the tilt angle of the Parrot Bebop Drone 2, the outside conditions and flight and flying configurations. You can fly the Parrot Bebop Drone 2 in wind speeds up to 24mph (40 km/h). You can fly the Parrot Bebop Drone 2 over dry, flat and lit surfaces. Parrot recommends not to fly the Parrot Bebop Drone 2 above water. You can fly the Parrot Bebop Drone 2 at altitudes no greater than 2500m. Beyond this altitude, the air density distorts the stabilization of the Parrot Bebop Drone 2. A rear flashing LED provides better visibility of the drone at long distances, so you can tell its direction and location.

3-Axis Stabilizing System: Using algorithms developed by Parrot engineers, the Bebop Drone 2 relies on an exclusive 3-axis
image stabilizing system. Filming remains stable, however far the drone leans over, adjusting for any turbulence. To ensure optimum stability without compromising easy handling, the Bebop Drone 2 merges data from many 3-axe sensors - an accelerometer, gyroscope and magnetometer. An ultrasound sensor with a range of 5m, a pressure sensor, and a vertical camera measure ground speed.

GNNS Chipset: The Bebop Drone 2 integrates a GNSS chipset that associates the GPS + GLONASS data. Plan your flights on your smartphone/tablet via the FreeFlight Pro App by touching waypoints on your screen and let the drone do the rest. In addition to increasing the stability in high altitude, it also allows autonomous flights and automatics return to the take-off position. With the recorded data (altitude, speed...), you are even able to replay your flights modeled in 3D on the Parrot Academy map.

Emergency Mode: In case there is a problem such a risk of collision, the drone going out your sight, loss of control, the Emergency Button of the app allows you turn off the engines immediately to land the drone. In the event of any collision, the propellers stop automatically.

Return Home: Thanks to a GPS system, a Return Home function brings the Bebop Drone 2 easily back to its take-off point. When "Return Home" is selected, the Bebop Drone 2 returns directly to its starting position when the altitude is greater than 10 meters. If the altitude is less or equal to 32.8' (10 meters), it will rise and stabilize itself at 32.8' (10 meters) before returning to its take-off position in a straight line. Once it has reached its take-off position, it will stop and hover 6.5' (2 meters) above the ground.

14 MP Fisheye Camera w/ Digital Image Stabilization: The Bebop's camera is equipped with a bright "fisheye" lens with 6 optical elements, plus a 14 Mega-pixel 1/2.3" sensor. The neutral angle of the camera allows you to capture more ground and less sky. The Parrot Bebop Drone 2 records videos and pictures in a 180° field with remarkable image quality. The full HD camera is digitally stabilized on 3-axes. This full-digital image stabilization technology allows the Bebop Drone 2 to take remarkably stable and clear aerial footage regardless of the drone movements. You'll get undistorted images and a horizon that is not curved. The lens is splash and dust proof.

• Video Definition: record video up to 1920 x 1080p (30fps)
• Photo Definition: record still images up to 4096 x 3072p
• Video Encoding: video is recorded in H.264
• Photo File Format: still images can be recorded in JPEG, RAW, or DNG

8GB Flash Memory: Video (H264) and still images (JPEG/RAW/DNG) are recorded to the drone's built-in 8GB flash memory. The internal memory for video recording is limited to 29 minutes. These video and still images can be transferred to your WiFi connected smartphone or tablet device, so you can delete them from the drone's flash memory. There is no media slot for an external memory card.

Computer Transfer: The Bebop Drone 2 can be plugged into your Windows PC for transfer of video and photo images to your computer's hard drive; your computer will recognize the Bebop like a USB thumbdrive. Mac computers require the Android File Transfer connection software to be installed to detect the Bebop Drone 2 like a USB flash drive

Rechargeable Battery: The Bebop Drone 2 is powered by a rechargeable lithium-polymer (2700mAh) battery which can provide up to 25 minutes of flight time. Charger is included to recharge the battery. Charging time is approximately 55 minutes with the included charging base.
