bebop Parrot

Designed to be safe

Thanks to its light weight (400 g) and its composition of ABS reinforced with glass fibers, the Parrot Bebop Drone is both solid and safe. In case of impact, the propellers stop automatically. In case of emergency, the "Emergency" mode allows you to immediately land your UAV. Finally, the PPE mask included in the package guarantees the safety of your flights indoors.

Advanced technologies

Parrot Bebop Drone offers features never before seen in a recreational drone: built-in computer 8 times more powerful than that of the Parrot AR. Drone 2.0. Dual core processor Parrot P7 for computing power. Quad core graphics processor. Internal Flash memory of 8 Go. The assembly is mounted on a magnesium support that fulfills the role of electromagnetic shielding and cooling system

Bebop Drone generates its own Wi-Fi network

A Wi-Fi MIMO connection: The Parrot Bebop Drone has 2 dual-band Wi-Fi antennas that allow it to manage the two frequencies 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz in MIMO. It generates its own network, according to the latest Wi-FI 802.11 standards. Depending on your network congestion, you can select the frequency you prefer.

Easily detachable

All parts are removable to facilitate the transport of the Bebop Drone. Pilots can concentrate on their flights and make magnificent images and videos.

Amazing stability

To ensure optimal stability without compromising manageability, Bebop Drone performs a fusion of data from numerous 3-axis sensors: accelerometer, gyroscope and magnetometer. An ultrasonic sensor with a range of 8 m, a pressure sensor, as well as a vertical camera measure the speed of travel.

A 14 million pixel "Fisheye" camera

Parrot Bebop Drone, equipped with a 14-megapixel camera with a "fisheye" lens, makes videos and photos in 180° of extraordinary quality. With fully digital image stabilization, Bebop Drone allows you to shoot images from the air, whatever the inherent movements of quadcopters. It is resistant to splashes and dust. Sports cameras often show distortions in horizontal lines.

The bebop Drone' Parrot camera does not distort them. Consequently, the horizon no longer suffers the effect of curvature.

Pilot-controlled 180° vision

The pilot can control the camera angle with a simple thumb movement from the piloting application. Horizontal scrolling at a 180° angle is completely digital and independent of the movements of the UAV

Intuitive piloting with the FreeFlight 3 app

Bebop Drone features a free piloting app for smartphones and tablets. Freeflight 3 is available on iOS, Android and Windows Phone. Its ergonomics have been developed to offer great simplicity of use and let the pilot concentrate on the only pleasure of flying. From the home screen, the pilot accesses the basic functionalities: piloting, photos/videos and cloud "Pilot Academy".
Freflight 3 offers a wide selection of settings: speed, maximum altitude, riding mode (accelerometer, virtual joystick, etc.). FreeFlight also gives you access to fun features: one-click laps!
FreeFlight 3 is also the piloting application of the MiniDrones Parrot.

Return Home

By pressing "Return Home", Bebop Drone returns in a straight line to its starting position, if its altitude is superior to 10 m. If its altitude is less than or equal to 10 m, it will first rise and stabilize at 10 m before returning in a straight line to its initial position. Once in its login position, it will stabilize at a height of 2 meters.

Pilot "a la carte" with Flight Plan

Thanks to the built-in GPS, control the Bebop Drone directly on the map: plan your flights on your smartphone and let the UAV do the rest! GPS location accuracy: +/- 2 m, thanks to its GNSS chip for GPS, tracking via the Glonass satellite. Save data from more than 350 flights. Then, visualize all your flights in 3D in the cloud of Parrot, thanks to the speed and altitude data obtained. Flight Plan will be available with in-app purchase to the Freeflight 3 app.
