what's up guys Brian sonic here with cnet.com and what I have here is DJI phantom 2 Vision+ now this is a smart unmanned aircraft and it's the first of its kind of come with an integrated camera system that shoots 1080p video as well as RAW images now what makes this unique also is this gimbal this is a three axis system that allows for image stabilization so I can either go left or right while I'm rolling or I can pitch forward and back and also while I'm rotating this is called yaw it is stable all the way through another thing about the DJI phantom 2 Vision+ is that it's GPS enabled and we really what that means for you is as a pilot if you're not gonna be going too crazy it centers on your GPS point it allows it to what they call it has this GPS hold feature so you're able to hover it you don't need to continuously be calibrating or really correcting where you're flying this guy will do it for you and it makes it really easy for hobbyists to pick up and play another unique feature is that the battery packs are included with this have 25 minutes per battery that's more than anything else you'll find out on the market right now so it also gives you a lot of time to play and fly and kind of figure out how this thing works and come up with some really beautiful shots now with the remote control this also has an app for your smartphone it works on Android or iOS and what it does is it creates a wireless system and you can actually see the visuals that the camera is seen on the phantom 2 Vision+ on your iPhone or your Android phone and it allows you to in some cases even control the angle that the camera is tilting on your iOS device but really it lets you see what the phantom 2 Vision+ sees another feature of the phantom will be bringing is what's called the airport safety feature and this is coming with a firmware update this will create a no-fly air zone so if you're near an airport you won't be able to take the phantom off and also if the phantom 2 Vision+ is flying and it hits this zone it'll send you back now it's coming out in spring for $1,300 so it's affordable enough for the hobbyist but you could see I mean we had a blast with this thing at the park you could take some amazing shots amazing video and really who wouldn't want to play with the drone for cnet.com i'm brian tong with the phantom 2 Vision+
