In addition to showcasing upgraded iterations of the existing Jumping Sumo and Rolling Spider minidrones, Parrot also revealed that Australians can expect to buy a new hydrofoil quadcopter hybrid that uses the arial drone's fans to scoot it across the water, sometime in September.
After selling over 600,000 mini-drone units in the nine months since their launch last year, Parrot's new mini-drone range will expand to 13 products within five new categories: the Jumping Night and the Jumping Race, the Airborne Night and the Airborne Cargo and the Hydrofoil.
The new range feature upgrades to engine efficiency and will now include onboard memory allowing you to play with the devices for longer and capture and store photos directly on the minidrones.
"Polly want a cracker"
The Jumping Night and the Jumping Race land-based drones, come with 4GB onboard flash memory, a 0.3 megapixel video and photo compatible dashcam and will cost AU$279.99 and AU$289 respectively.
The quadcopter Night and Cargo models have 1GB of flash storage, but can only take photos using the same forward mounted dashcam and will cost AU$199.99 or AU$149.99 each.
The Hydrofiol quadcopter will retail for AU$239.99 and reaches speeds of up to 10km per hour using a similarly specced airborne drone to power it.
The entire minidrone range will connect to the Android, iOS and Windows smartphone and tablet app FreeFlight 3 and yes … with a built in microphone and speakers, both the new land-based Parrots can now talk.
