Improvement in stabilisation
Flying high, very high, is a dream which has become possible with the AR.Drone
2.0. When you climb to 50 metres, even 100 metres, the AR.Drone 2.0 appears
smaller and smaller to the naked eye, and therefore stabilisation becomes an
essential tool for control. Already a very powerful feature, stabilisation is
improved even more by the GPS receiver which calculates the position of your
AR.Drone in space, preventing it from drifting in the wind. From now on, the
sky's the limit.
“Return home” mode
Making the AR.Drone 2.0 return to its take-off point is now child's play
thanks to this new feature. Just press once on the corresponding button and the
AR.Drone 2.0 comes straight back to its take-off point in a straight line.
View your flights in 3D on the AR.Drone Academy map
With the Flight Recorder, your flight data (altitude, speed, etc.) is enriched
by GPS location data. By registering with the AR.Drone Academy, you can access
all the flights you have made and, thanks to the GPS receiver you can review the
trajectory in 3D and position it on the AR.Drone Academy map.
An accessory for developers
The two generations of AR.Drone have already tempted numerous developers to
develop Augmented Reality games, control applications or new control methods.
The GPS receiver now gives them further scope for development. QGround Control,
a program available for Windows/Linux/MAC allows them, among other things, to
program a flight plan.
A new control mode: control by map
This new control mode allows you to choose the destination of your AR.Drone
2.0. A new control interface shows the geographical map on which you click to
determine the destination of your AR.Drone 2.0 (within the limits of the Wi-Fi
connection). Internet connection required to load the card.
