Got this for my parrot Mambo. Excellent build quality. solid feel. intuitive controls. The phone bracket is too small to fit my Galaxy S4 in its case, but its so fun to use I don't mind taking the phone out of its case. Excellent controller. Easy to use.

This remote works great with the parrot mini drone, especially the Mambo. Not only is it better controlling the drone but you get better distance. I have gotten around 100feet without disconnection. When you connect the drone and remote with the free flight mini app once, the drone will recognize the remote and you don't need to connect with phone or app after that. It's not the same controlling with phone only. This is a must have to enhance and enjoy your piloting skills.

Yes!
I was requesting this feature from Parrot long time a go. Controlling the drone with the cell phone only is not the best way and also is not secure.
The remote control feels good in hands, like other non-so-toy grade controller ;).There is a noticeable delay between the command sent to the drone and the drone reaction, due to the connection type.
Overall very decent remote controller, easy configuration. Thanks Parrot.

Works great, battery lasts long. More control with remote rather than iPhone. Better usage than the parrot drone that continues to break...

Using the Flypad to control the Bebop 1. Provides much better control than using the app. Unfortunately, it doesn't increase the range.

I got this for my ten year old son to use with his Parrot Mambo, and it works famously! It extended the range and added extra maneuverability and fine control to the drone I bought my son for his birthday. It's a great addition to the fabulous drone!

You can fly the parrot drone with your phone but the touch screen is a little uncomfortable to me, I think this pad is worth to spend extra money on, gives you really good and comfortable control with your drone and also has rechargeable battery

My only complaint is that I wish I didn't have to still use my cell phone to connect the drone and the controller to each other. So once the controller is connected I just lay my phone on the table and I fly my drone. Otherwise the controller works great just takes a little getting used to compared to the cell phone.

If you have a Oarrot Drone you have to get this. So much better than controlling the drone with a smart phone. I with Parrot would make one for our Parrot AR 2.0
