I bought this for work to inspect roofs. I am very happy with the drone, but have no use for the fisheye pictures and don't know how to get the camera to produce regular photos. Im sure there is some application for those type of images, but not for me. I was very nervous at first to fly it because I had never piloted a drone before and did not want to ruin it right off the bat. I found that it is extremely easy to fly and get the hang of. I have used it in winds about 15 mph and it was pretty stable, but still had to keep an eye on it to keep it from getting too close to tree limbs. Battery has held up about 22 minutes (didn't clock it exactly) before I got the low battery warning. Video is great and after 2 weeks, I have no cons to report.

Bought this on 11/25/18. Got it at a steal for $249 during Black Friday weekend. Got it home and I've flown it a dozen times. Very pleased with control, agility, speed, and camera. It's easy to fly and does great in strong winds. Very stable. Update: on 12/16/18, my Bebop2 fell from the sky in mid flight for no rhyme or reason at all. I had to contact Parrot due to damage. They did an investigation within 48 hrs and had me send the drone back. I'm waiting on a new one now. I cant say anything terribly bad since parrot has agreed to replace it. I'd just like to know why it failed. Will it happen again? One other reason I gave it 4 stars in the wifi connection. You really need to buy an additional extender to get decent range out of the drone.

This is my second drone (the first was Parrot Bebop 1) and it meets all expectations. It flies upward of 38mph in sports mode. It is agile, sleek, and a joy to fly. If you are wanting a drone that can compete with DJI type drones and don't want to spend a fortune for it, this is your drone. It is good for teenagers and adults of all ages. The battery life has been improved to 25 minutes. It can fly a distance of 1.24 miles in an WIFI free area. Inner cities varies and depends on how congested it is with WIFI. Be sure to purchase FOLLOW ME function and your drone will follow you just about anywhere. The downsides to this drone are few. It lands hard so don't land on concrete. To offset the hard landing I land only on soft surfaces and I take control of the landing on RTH. I gave this drone a 4 only because there are no fractions. I give the Bebop 2 a 4.75 out of 5.

Ok, so my wife bought me this for Christmas when I saw it was on sale for $250. I have been wanting a good drone but never really wanting to spend the money ie $500+ for 20 min play time. So this thing, up to 25 minute flight time for $250....with the goggle holder (also, it’s their newer one not the one in the picture. Basically a smartphone holder to use as goggles for fpv flying) for the smartphone, which I used and it’s honestly amazing. I got out to 1200ft and lost connection but I think it was the transformer in front of me. I walked about 15 ft to the left and regained signal. Flew it in video (slow) mode at 200 and 300 feet for 12 minutes and 45 seconds using 38% battery. So a almost 13 minute flight with 62% battery life on a calm evening was honestly amazing. I have only owned it about 3 days and flown it twice for short time frames (daylight saving time sucks) but honestly, if you want a great beginner top notch drone without breaking the bank...buy it. Use the saved money on extra accessories for it like batteries and a case. Put the more expensive drones to shame with a 25 minute flight time for a fraction of the price!

Drone is easy to fly and the camera is excellent. Flight time is acceptable at almost 1/2 hour per battery. I would recommend this product especially for a beginner, its that easy to fly.

This drone flies very easy. The first drone I had was a mini drone. It flew away on me after one day of use. Never did find it. This drone, however, makes it so easy that my 6 year old could fly it. It's not a trick drone. It is designed for aerial photography. I'm happy with the imaging that the camera produces. Best Buy staff was more than exceptional in helping me to purchase this.

I purchased my Parrot Bebop 2 FPV pack from Bestbuy (amazing price). Tons of technology in this compact drone. I use my drone for security at my church. With an "Eagles eye view" I can see between vehicles, in truck beds ect. that from ground level you can't see. I also used my bebop 2 to inspect my roof on my warehouse and found a bullet hole where a bullet that was fired into the air came down into my roof. I would have paid more than 300 to have a roofer to inspect. I have had issues with my controller and Parrot tech support replaced the unit for free. Parrot has great support. The Bebop 2 has in app purchase for "follow me, way point flight) I love way point flying. I preset the bebop 2 to fly a certain pattern over the area I'm securing and at the touch of a button it will fly flawlessly to every way point and video, change altitude, fly different speeds, turn camera angles during flight, and more. I flew 1.1 miles away using the sky controller 2 until it lost connection. The drone automatically goes into "return to home" feature. The bebop 2 came back to where its tarted and hovered at 6' high until I regained control over the drone. The bebop2 does 4 different flips when you just want to play around. It does way more than I'm mentioning in this review. The next closest drone with this type technology will set you back 799.00. That's more than double the price of my Bebop 2. Like I said, it can't be beat period. It is "the Parrot that flies like an Eagle"!!!

I purchased this drone for taking pictures but as I have gotten used to flying it I have been having a great time flying it as a sport drone. It is fast and agile and just a blast to fly. I will upgrade in the future as I'm loving the sport of flying.

I bought this as a gift for my husband it made the 2018 top 10 drone list. Had good reviews so gave it a try. Turned out well! The directions that come with it are lacking in helpful information especially for a beginner but with the help of you tube all turned out well and my husband loves it. It takes great pictures and videos to!

It is a lot of fun learning how to fly a drone with the Bebop 2. There are some safety features like auto increase altitude when using RTH that are not included but it’s still a great value.

Great drone for someone learning for the first time to fly. The free app makes it easy because you can adjust it to fly slowly and limit its range so as to not lose it.

Fantastic. Got it during a special pricing for hundreds off. This is not a toy. The FPV is like a dream you are viewing from the perspective of the drones!! What more could you want? Flips. Frontwards,backwards, forwards or backwards. It does it all programmed flights No problem. Get a few there worth it!

This is my 4th drone I’ve owned and this takes the cake. I love flying this drone so much. You do need to pay $19.99 for the flight mode on the app but it works flawlessly so far. Definitely recommend this to anyone looking to step there drone abilities up.

Frustrating, Battery issues still plague the Bebop

After buying a bebop 1 with skycontroller, I noticed this went on sale for $499. I had so much fun with my Bebop 1 (even though it has battery issues as well), that I decided to buy the Bebop 2 with Skycontroller 2 and FPV.
After just 2 flights, the battery is unable to charge, leaving the drone unable to fly at all. Frustrating!! This is the same thing that happened to my Bebop 1. But unlike the Bebop 2, the Bebop 1 comes with 3 (yes 3) batteries. So I've still been able to fly my first one. But the Bebop 2 only comes with 1 battery, and thus I'm completely grounded at the moment. Contemplating whether I should just return this, ask for a swap at Best Buy, or deal with Parrot CS (which is actually pretty good).
Regardless, I don't understand why Parrot continues to resource its batteries from poor suppliers in China. It won't get past the "toy drone" stigma until it starts taking care of its batteries and upgrading its cameras.
I will probably begin to explore other options.
