[QUOTE="s2 Web Parrot, post: 24562, member: 5008"] This won't be terribly helpful, only a similar anecdote. Parrot also has some slick indoor videos of it's Mini Drone the Mambo. Young kids flying indoors and out and using some cute attachments to fire small balls from a canon (mounted on top of the drone). It also uses a bottom mounted remote controlled grabber that shows picking up a sugar cube, flying over a cup of coffee, and dropping the sugar in to a spashing coffee. Slow motion reveals about 20 video cuts. You never see the grabber pick up the cube while in flight. When the claws close, the props aren't even moving. There is no prop wash making the surface of the coffee move (even though the aircraft is hovering about a foot over the coffee). Both my grandson and I have a Mambo and, as experienced as we have become, can't do any of the displayed tricks. However, it is a terrific indoors drone, and durable as heck. It, to, has difficulty with it's VFS detection if you launch from a surface that lacks a pattern. I prefer to fly it indoors and the Spark outside. Like I said, not terribly helpful, but another example of how marketing gets in the way of reality. [/QUOTE]
