Reviewed in the United States on October 4, 2014
Oh I love this thing. It is very intuitive to fly and easy to control. When you get in trouble, take your thumbs off the touch screen of the tablet and the drone sorts itself out pronto. That said, this is definitely a toy. It is going to be crashed. It is going to be broken. It will require repairs. The repairs are easy. Most of all, this thing is surprisingly rugged. I'm amazed at the number and severity of cashes it has survived without being grounded for repairs.

I use the android app and was up and running (flying) just moments after the battery reached full charge. I first tried flying indoors in a largish but emptied bedroom. It is flyable in that size a room but the props create so much air turbulence that the drone had to work hard to keep its composure. It was still easy though because it tries to hover unless you're giving it control inputs. That self generated air turbulence made the drone pretty impossible to fly down the hall though.

Taking it outside, there is no real issue with leaving the "indoor shell" in place. I'm glad I did because I crashed often. It isn't that it's hard too control. It's that it is so easy to fly that I do things I shouldn't - particularly when the wind is gusty. The crashes have been mostly harmless because the drone is so light that crashes don't tear it, or other things, apart. Regarding wind, I think 10 or 15 mph wind is too much - at least with the indoor shell on. It really struggles to hold position. It can hold position, but it is a far from steady hover often with a bit of downwind drift..

Anyways, it's a lot of fun to fly around and look at stuff through the cameras. Looking at stuff is fairly easy because the machine will try to hover in place.

When I finally destroy this AR 2.0 in some mishap, I doubt I'll replace it with another just like it. Parrot is coming out with a newer model that looks to be quite the upgrade. I might go for a DJ phantom for the improved range, wind handling, and path following. I might go the full hobby route and assemble my own with those beastly motors and arduino gadgets. dunno. What I do know is that this AR 2.0 drone has me enthralled with all things drone.

Reviewed in the United States on January 21, 2016
I received this as Christmas gift. I love it. The videos were blurry on the left side and cleaning the lens didn't help. I finally got brave and started twisting the camera from the end. The lens screws on and is glued in place. If you twist hard enough to break the glue bond, you can adjust the focus of the lens. I suggest gluing it back with a tiny drop of Elmer's school glue or silicon glue if you have it. Don't use a permanent glue.

It's easy to fly once you get the hang of it, but it, like all other drones, takes practice. I use the tilt-pad method of flying but it also has finger controls as well.

Even though I didn't add the GPS, it flies and hovers much more stable with the GPS feature turned on.

It is heavy enough to require FAA registration ($5.00 for unlimited aircraft for 3 years).

I have crashed mine several times, but so far, no damage.

I recommend swapping batteries once your level gets to 30% because at 20% the battery level drops to 0 almost instantly. If you fly below 30% make sure it is low as once it hits 20% you may run out of battery before it can land. Mine couldn't descend from tree-top level to the ground before the battery died. I caught it with my hands, but that would have been bad over my house, or if I couldn't have caught it.

Beware of the wind. Wind might be faster at higher altitudes and the bird can become hard to control. With indoor shell, even a small wind can blow it off course quickly.

The recorded videos look much better than the image on the ipad during flight. The live feed is not suitable to fly by so always keep an eye on the bird. Don't depend on the video to fly by or you'll crash in "clear" space. there is quite a delay sometimes.

It is an easy to fly and learn drone, but start learning in a large open area! It is still easy to get away from you until you get a good feel of it.

Important! Look up mods for the landing gear. That's its weak point. A few zip-ties could save you a lot of time and money in the repair.

Muy manejable y adaptable a todos los niveles de manejo. La imagen de la cámara es buena. Es muy resistente y la carcasa de porexpan se repara fácilmente con la cinta de doble cara que viene en la caja (aunque es poca cosa y conviene comprar más). También es recomendable comprar los protectores para los ejes ya que se dañan con los golpes fuertes.
Recomiendo a los principiantes activar el "control absoluto" para que el manejo sea mucho más fácil y el drone se desplace según nuestros movimientos sin tener en cuenta cual es su parte delantera
El modo director sólo está disponible para apple.
una buna compra para pasar buenos ratos al aire libre.

5.0 out of 5 stars Sehr Gut
Reviewed in Germany on October 20, 2013
Die AR Drone 2.0 an sich ist wirklich Spitze. Ich weiß nicht was der unterschied zwischen der normalen Power Edition und der Power Edition Rot sein soll. Die Akkulaufzeit ist sehr gut. Jedoch kann ich empfehlen ein 3. akku zu kaufen wenn man die Drohne mal weiter weg mit hin nimmt.

Jedoch! Wenn man ein Android gerät benutzt, hat man keine Spiele und man kann auch nicht das GPS Modul benutzen, welches man sich auch dazu kaufen kann. Die Android App wird nichtmehr richtig Unterstützt habe ich das gefühl. Apple IOS haben version 2.4.7 von Freeflight und Android benutzer immernoch 2.3.3!

Aber die Drohne ist wirklich Spitze. Die 2 Kameras sind ausreichend und ersatzteile bekommt man für die drohne auch alles, falls sie mal kaputt gehen sollte ;D

Für Apple benutzer klare kaufempfehlung. Wenn man jedoch Android benutzt muss man sehen ob man das GPS Modul dazu haben möchte und ob man auch Spiele mit der Drohne spielen möchte.

Edit: Mit der Drohne hatte ich schon einige Probleme. Ich bin etwas geflogen und ohne das ich etwas drücke flog sie auf einmal im haus gegen eine wand! Indoorhülle natürlich kaputt gebrochen.
Im Garten unter einer vordach bin ich auch etwas geflogen. Als ich auf Landen geklickt habe ist sie anstatt zu landen einfach an die decke geflogen mit max. Speed! Ich konnte sie nur über den Emergency Button abstürzen lassen. Nun habe ich im Android Appstore eine App gekauft mit der ich die Drohne von 2.3.3 auf 2.4.7 geupdated habe und ab jetzt scheint alles zu funktionieren!
Und mir ist aufgefallen das die höhenanzeige in der Freeflightapp bei mir nie stimmt. Wenn ich starte und sie automatisch auf ca 1 meter fliegt ist alles in odernung jedoch wenn ich einen flip mache oder auch einfach so etwas hin und her fliege spinnt es rum. Wenn ich die Drohne dann lande und sie auf dem boden steht steht in der APP immernoch 3 meter höhe oder ähnliches.
Naja hoffentlich klappt nun mit der Drohne auf 2.4.7 alles. Indoorhülle muss ich mir aber neu kaufen -.- Sie hat nichtmal 2 Tage gehalten!

Creo que es un gran producto. Ofrece muchas posibilidades de vuelo, desde maniobras muy sencillas a otras muy complicadas. La cámara tiene una resolución genial. Nosotros lo manejamos a través del iPhone o del ipad y es muy sensible a los mandos.
Nosotros somos muy principiantes y lo manejamos en zonas amplias y muy despejadas. Eso sí, hay que tener cuidado con la cobertura WIFI
