    Bebop 2 plus Extras

    Selling my Bebop 2 and all the extras as I have just bought a DJI Mavic Air as I wanted a 4K drone plus it is a bit more portable. It is in perfect working order though to be honest I have not had it at its limits as this is my first drone and I was a bit wary of being too adventurous with it so...

    Different Serial Number

    This is the reply I received from Parrot so all is good, I have copied & pasted from the email received. Kindly note that this is normal, the PF serial number is for the entire package, the PS serial number is for the physical drone and the PI serial number is what shows up in the application...

    Altimeter

    Thanks for that info Skydreamer. I will look at that app, quite a bit to be aware of when it comes to GPS I guess.

    Altimeter

    Yeah, I did calibrate before flying, I was at the side of a building approx 30 feet high though and a hill in front of me and thought that may be the issue so I went to a pier that had nothing around it except for a fishing boat and same again. Not a major problem but I feel it needs to be...

    Altimeter

    Thanks for that Scott. Yeah, had a bit of a long haul getting to this point and just happy that all seems to be working well. Hopefully the altimeter issue will be easily solved, It is an easy drone to fly though and not too big, it was also quite breezy yesterday when I had it up but the video...

    Altimeter

    At long last I got the drone in the air yesterday and again today. All seems good as far as the controller and batteries are concerned, howeverI noticed today when ascending I get altitude readout to approx 20-22 metres then after that I only get the first 2 or 3 so 25 metres is registered as 2...

    Is Parrot sending Bebop 2 Power batteries with Bebop 2's intentionally??

    I got power battery and charger with my FPV pack, since had to purchase 5 pin charger with Skycontroller 2 lead to charge my controller and that is standard 12.6V so I will use that to charge my standard battery that I bought spare, oh I nearly forgot I also have another 12.6V battery and...

    Stock Charger

    Thanks for that valuable info Mick, I'll watch that video as I have never come across it when searching for info.

    Different Serial Number

    Just charged my Skycontroller and unable to get it to connect to drone so I connected drone to FF Pro with my phone and went to drone info. As soon as drone info came up I noticed serial number is different, the first 8 digits up to the letter C are different and then they are the same. There...

    Stock Charger

    Hi Mick Thanks for your reply to my post. I have been in touch with Christopher from that website today as that is probably the route I will go but I was wondering how crucial it is to get a proper balance charger. I would have thought Parrot charger should be up to the job and they probably...

    Stock Charger

    Does anyone just use the chargers that come with the drone or is everyone using a balance charger as I keep reading about the Parrot chargers not charging the batteries correctly and this can lead to power fails. Just want to know if I have to buy a balance charger and leads and if so what is...
