    Bebop 2 freeflight 6 issues

    I've never had an issue with the app and I've used several different phones -all android- and the odd iPhone and iPad,you clearly have a conflict somewhere,only experimentation will iron it out

    Lens Correction Troubles

    To get round those distortion issues I use Bebopdefisheye an app for Android,any fiddling after that I do on Luminar or GIMP

    Took me a few years, but here I am

    Yes it's in the photo settings,but while dng / raw is the best quality it's also a pain because- as I'm sure you know- what you see is not what you get. I was trying to make the point that whilst the Bebop 2 is a really good reliable drone the camera is somewhat lacking,and I'm sure that if...

    Took me a few years, but here I am

    It's a shame that Parrot don't update the Bebop 2 with a superior camera, I can cope with the video quality but constantly fiddling with the fisheye shots to straighten them has become a chore,the other picture resolutions really don't come out well ,anyway good luck with your Bebop,mine has...

    Bebop 2 motors

    It makes sense to replace all 4,no point sending it up with 3 (possibly tired)motors and one fresh one.

    Battery required bbop 2

    Amazon!!! Don't buy pattern,stick with OEM,then you can blame Parrot if it all goes wrong,otherwise they'll blame the pattern battery if it falls out of the sky;)

    Range bb2

    Auriga Bebop app will over-ride height limitations,and send the Bebop up as far possible ,and while seeing the curvature of the earth from your drone is alluring and amazing it's also VERY RISKY. I've been tempted to over ride those safety/ legal limits with the app for that photo /video...

    Skycontroller 2 won't charge

    Is it new or within it's guarantee period,if so,contact Parrot,if not you need a friendly electrician of some sort with a multi-meter who certainly should be able to find the weak point,could be anything,dry joint,failed circuits/condensers/capacitors(I'm guessing here!).

    Be Bop 2 won't land

    May be a dumb question but you are pressing the land button aren't you ? RTH will just bring it back without landing,hovering about a foot or so off the ground. Unfortunately the Bebop 2 lands less than gracefully ,my Tello does it better!

    Bebop 2 Video Quality

    Well..yes I am watching it on the phone but it has a variety of options for improving picture and video but these improvements don't go any further than the phone itself so whatever I import / upload elsewhere lacks those improvements,which is irritating but your reply (and the chap in the...

    Bebop 2 Video Quality

    I'm new to this drone lark but not new to photography . The Bebop 2 takes good images but I've found the video to be a bit average . However,my android phone makes the videos taken look stunningly sharp,bright and colourful. This is down to it's photo and video software which lends all sorts of...

    HUD on FPV, no menu?

    Ah,that explains that then! Don't think my iPad will fit in the cockpit goggles,but the Mrs may have an iPod that might!!! Thanks for the tip!

    HUD on FPV, no menu?

    Hello,new member & new to drones! The parrot manuals online seem to be a bit out of date and refer to crosses that have to be lined up in fpv config mode....but I am having similar issues to you with cockpit glasses 2 . In fpv config I can make adjustments left/right/forward/back,but when...
