Parrot Bebop Drone Blue w/Skycontroller

Lightweight yet robust quadricopter

Parrot Bebop Drone produces the best flight performance ever seen in a leisure drone. The feather-weight ABS reinforced structure makes Parrot Bebop Drone robust and safe. In case of an emergency, the emergency function automatically stops the propellers and lands the drone. EPP hulls are included in the pack and ensure that indoor flights are safer. To ensure optimal stability without compromising the maneuverability, the Bebop Drone automatically analyzes data from numerous 3-axis sensors: accelerometer, gyroscope, magnetometer. One ultrasound sensor with an 8 meters reach, one pressure sensor and one vertical camera to measure speed.

The user-friendly application was developed for usability allowing the pilot to be entirely focused on the pleasure of flying. From the home page of the app the pilot can access basic functionalities: Piloting, photos/videos, flight plan, Cloud "Pilot Academy"... "Freeflight 3" offers users complete control of their altitude and speed settings and piloting mode (accelerometer, virtual joystick...). It also includes fun features such as one-touch Flip! The Parrot Bebop Drone photo and video stream is synchronized in real time with your smartphone: Instantly share your best photos on Facebook or Instagram and showcase your flights on Youtube with the touch of a finger.

Parrot Bebop Drone generates its own Wi-Fi hotspot

MIMO Wi-Fi connection: Parrot Bebop Drone embarks 2 dual-band Wi-Fi antennas that allows it to handle both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz MIMO frequencies. It generates its own Wi-Fi 802.11 network. Depending on the network interference, you can select the frequency of your choice.

Stabilized full HD 1080p video

Thanks to algorithms developed by Parrot engineers, the Bebop Drone benefits from an exclusive 3-axis image stabilization system that maintains a fixed angle of the view regardless of the inclination of the drone and its movements caused by wind turbulence.

180° vision controlled by the pilot

The pilot can control the angle of the camera directly in the piloting application with a simple movement of the thumb. The horizontal movement on a 180° angle is fully digital and does not affect your drone's movements.

14 megapixels “Fisheye” camera

Equipped with a 14 megapixel "fisheye" camera, the Parrot Bebop Drone records videos and takes pictures within a 180° field of view with remarkable image quality. Full-digital image stabilization technology allows the Bebop Drone to take remarkably stable and clear aerial footage regardless of the drones movements, as well as providing a splash and dust proof lens. Action cameras often show distorted horizontal lines. The Parrot Bebop Drone camera provides undistorted lines resulting in a perfect, uncurved horizon.

A true piloting experience

Dock and connect your smartphone or tablet, and sync with your Bebop Drone over Wi-Fi on FreeFlight 3 app. Or use Skycontroller as a standalone remote control. Dock and connect your smartphone or tablet, and sync with your Bebop Drone over Wi-Fi on FreeFlight 3 app. Or use Skycontroller as a standalone remote control. With Skycontroller, pilot Bebop Drone with 2 ultra-precise joysticks and control the orientation of the fisheye (180°) camera with one dedicated pad to change the viewing angle of the camera.

High precision joysticks & pads

Take control of the drone via two ultra-precise joysticks. The top right stick lets you control the angle of the camera in a 180° field. The top left stick enables you to navigate the app in FPV mode.

Foldable sunshade cover, neck strap and more

The included foldable sunshade cover allows you to:

Embodies a first step into immersive piloting
Eliminates the sun reflections on your piloting device
Enables you to access your tablet easily without dismantling the cover
Portable, you can take it with you for all your sessions
Foldable, you carry your tablet inside if you decide to move fast to another spot
Fits with all tablet sizes (phablet adapter included) and can be used without Skycontroller

The packaging includes a high quality neck strap, that insures a good balance of the Skycontroller over your shoulders, resulting in fewer eeffort to concentrate even more on piloting. To extend the experience, 3 batteries and 1 dedicated charger are also part of the packaging as well as a plastic adapter to fit more tablets.

Embedded GPS with Flight Map control

Thanks to the integrated GPS, control your Bebop drone directly on the map: plan your flights on your smartphone and let your drone do the rest!

Accurate GPS localization: around 2 meters with the GNSS chip and tracking with the Glonass satellite. Save over 350 flights and watch them in 3D with the Parrot Cloud thanks to the altitude and speed data collected. Flight Plan will be available as an in-app Freeflight 3 purchase.

Return Home

When “Return Home” is selected the Bebop drone returns directly to its starting position when the altitude is greater than 10 meters. If the altitude is less or equal to 10 meters, it will rise and stabilize itself at 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 2 meters above the ground.

Freeflight 3 - Free App

Parrot Bebop Drone comes with a free piloting application "Freeflight 3" for iOS and Android smartphones and tablets.
