More Drone Carnage!

2015-07-14
what's up guys Lew here back with another video and today we are looking at another drone another small little drone you may remember the video I posted recently of this tiny little fit in your palm size drone this one's a little bit bigger than that it also has an application that comes along with it that you install on your phone iOS Android or Windows Phone it has a camera built into it so it's just a little bit more advanced so this is the rolling spider from parrot mini-drone it can be used inside and outside it has a range of 20 meters or 66 feet you could do flips and as I mentioned before it has smartphone control and it all uses low power consumption Bluetooth which is good but you're still not going to get a ton of battery life on something like this it's actually only about eight minutes but the truth is that's still enough time to have a fair bit of fun with it and you can get extra batteries and just keep them on deck this is very stable as you'd expect it has a number of different sensors that keep it floating perfectly so here it is not huge by any means still sort of fits into my hand as you can see so we've got an ultrasonic sensor as well as a 3-axis gyroscope and accelerometer there's also a camera here a little tiny camera capable of taking fairly low resolution pictures a USB cable micro USB to be exact a little bit of paperwork don't need that the rechargeable battery and it takes about 90 minutes to recharge these now these are interesting how do these this thing actually has wheels well it can actually do a little driving too I mean you could just have these things on sort of to protect it when I first saw these that's what I imagined flying this thing indoors there are a number of different obstacles things to run into people to run into hopefully not where do they install I missed a piece oh I need this professional unboxer I think not I talked all this big game anyway this clips on and these crazy-looking wheels go on the side here so it's going to be pretty hard to mess up your propellers or kill anybody with these installed so let's go ahead and insert the here we have lights on the eyes now because he's got like these orange headlights and a pretty mean looking face which I like let's live dangerously let's try it without the wheels at first the app is called free flight 3 as mentioned it works on iOS Android and even Windows Phone how about that some Windows Phone love oh yeah ok we're going to lying flat he needs to be lied flat apparently then launch the app free flight 3 disconnecting look at this we got all the way to 87% and then we froze what oh my god had to start again thanks a bunch I'm sorry to say this but I have a funny feeling that if we were on iOS right now this thing would already be flying sending file okay so people hate to break it to you but once again it looks like at least at this point that iOS has gotten more love on the app side we are connected and we're actually sending over the firmware update iOS love from manufacturers not a new thing they love their iOS like that right their connection you guys need to know this kind of stuff this is real life right here on unbox therapy Remini me me me me yes green eyes Wow it connects on iOS so fast hoochie-mama here we go what what why did it well we have our first durability test look at this we can set a max altitude so there's various piloting modes here speed settings you so the way the controls operate the left hand side is is controlling your altitudes and the sort of spin axis of the drone and then on the right you put your thumb and then you've engaged the accelerometer in the phone as you tip down it'll move forward pull back it'll go backwards even though I've set maximum altitude at 2.5 meters it still sort of obviously 2.5 meters it still jumps up in the beginning so I can't even really launch it from the table so now I move down to the floor and I'm attempting to sort of fly it into frame here I blew it I blew it for a bit oh ho oh yeah go easy on the microphone dude right underneath the mic Oh still though I had it in the zone man drones are so much fun I'm a triangle I'm gonna land it Milland it right here little spin flute does that account chopped up the microphone a little bit that's drone carnage right there whoa I feel like me sitting there was messing with its sensors a little bit low battery alert oh the little battery alert yes
