    IS THIS JUST ME???

    Hello Fellow Bebop 2 pilots. Hope you are all keeping well. Ever since I updated my iPhone to iOS 14.2 I’m no longer able to access the camera widget in FreeFlight Pro. If I try to set my still camera shot to say, JPEG Snap the camera settings page flashes up and FreeFlight Pro crashes. If I use...

    WTF! BEBOP 2 CRASHES EVENTHOUGH IT THINKS IT DIDN’T

    Good thoughts Guy’s. So when I got home, I re inserted the battery, removed the props, downloaded the footage and reset the drone as best I good with the motor from the broken central cross sort of hanging.

    Bebop2 Battery plug caps

    Hello to all Parrot Bebop 2 Pilots! I really like the rubber boots that fit over the plug connector on the Bebop battery. A great way to prevent something damaging the pins. I’ve poked around a bit and haven’t had any luck finding them. Does anyone know where they could be purchased? Regards to all.

    Most Embarrassing Parrot Bebop 2 Question EVER!!

    Hey guy’s! Sliding it in kind of reminds of of loading an ammo cartridge into a gun: slides in and that last say quarter of a inch and I give it a good slap and basically it connects. Now, I’ve got a donor drone, my first Bebop 2. Same thing, load it in and then give it slap and in it goes! But...

    Most Embarrassing Parrot Bebop 2 Question EVER!!

    Hello Fellow Parrot Bebop2 Pilots! Ever since I first bought my Bebop 2, I’ve struggled with removing the battery from my drone. I know “push the lever up and slide the battery Back”.

    Hi there! Yes, tested them all. Tested the total 11.1 volts and the individual cells 3.1v. Props off they’d last 15-20 minutes run time. Props on, I’d be lucky to get ten seconds!!

    Bebop 2 falling off the sky..!!

    When I got them both last week I charged them using the Parrot charger. Not really trusting them, I hovered the drone, made a few up-down maneuvers followed by a short distance and a RTH. Everything seems fine. Mrkent.com has a Utube video about load testing batteries. And some other members...

    Bebop 2 falling off the sky..!!

    Hey Mike! Thanks for the heads up. I must say I've seen so many Utube video's and various other comments about the Parrot Bebop chargers being balanced and NOT being balanced etc. Even from Parrots own Tech Support!
