Product details

The Parrot Swing is the only mini-drone that allows you to control a supersonic aircraft with astonishing ease. It is also the only aircraft with autopilot and a vertical takeoff and landing mode. With the Parrot Flypad joystick, you can control your drone with high precision like a pro. Turn the sky into a racetrack.

The unique X-shape promises two drones in one. Thanks to modern flight control and powerful sensors, the Parrot Swing is the only mini-drone with vertical takeoff and landing capabilities. It is robust and easy to learn. Nothing can hold you back anymore.

Be the fastest among your friends. Tilt your Parrot Swing forward to gain speed. The more you tilt it, the faster you will go. When you activate the boost mode, no one can keep up with you. Speed off, fly in a slalom, and navigate obstacles to be the first to arrive.

With the Parrot Flypad, you can control your Parrot Swing with even greater precision over a distance of up to 60 meters. Using the adjustable mount for your smartphone, you can see the remaining battery life and flight time on your display and change the control parameters. To use the Parrot Flypad, you need a smartphone or tablet (at least iOS 8 or Android 4.4) that supports Bluetooth 4.0. Before using the smartphone mount of the Parrot Flypad, make sure your smartphone does not exceed the following dimensions: Width: 78 mm, Thickness: 9.8 mm.

Vor nicht allzu langer Zeit wurden Drohnen ab 250 Gramm mit einer Kennzeichnungspflicht belegt. Die federleichte Parrot Swing fällt mit ihren gerade mal 75 Gramm damit durchs Raster. Ein weiterer Vorteil: Der Brummer muss nicht erst zusammengebaut werden, sondern ist direkt bereit zum Losfliegen – optimal für Kinder...

Die Minidrohne bekommt Ihr für 139 Euro inklusive Controller für eine bequemere Steuerung. Als Spielzeug macht das Teil echt Spaß, auch wenn die richtig riskanten Manöver ein bisschen Übung erfordern. Zum Glück ist der Swing stabiler als er aussieht, denn schon leichte Windböen lassen den Copter abdriften.
