About ARDrone Flight Pro

Android ARDrone Flight Pro Application.
Control the V1, V2 AR.Drones and Bebop v1/v2, with support for Cardboard style VR.

ARDrone Flight Pro includes all the ARDrone Flight Platinum Features: V2 Drone support, Flight Animations and Autonoumous Mode.

Use this app if you require all the Platinum Features without using the ARDrone Flight Platinum Features in-app payments, with extra Pro enhancements.

Pro enhancements include 3D orientation model; HUD attitude; new icons to maximise video area; hide all icons to fly by HUD; colour and saturation control for all UI.

See ARDrone Flight Pro discussion on ARDrone-Flyers.com forums.

V2 AR.Drones require a powerful Android CPU - Galaxy S is a minimum requirement when using local video recording recording with overlays.

Bebop support is dependant on the Parrot firmware, so no autonomous GPS, just wifi based under app control.


This software uses libraries from the FFmpeg project under the LGPLv2.1.
This software also uses the unmodified JAR of Apache Commons Net licensed under the Apache License, Version 2.0.

See http://www.meavydev.co.uk/ARDrone.html

Features:

Flight Animations:
* Flight animations allow a sequence of flight animations to be built up and then played back when the Drone is flying. This includes V2 only flips.
See http://www.meavydev.co.uk/ARDrone.html#FlightAnimations

Autonomous Mode:
* Uses you device GPS with Mapsforge maps to fly the Drone under autonomous control.
Uses offline mapping from Mapsforge.
See http://code.google.com/p/mapsforge/

N.B. Autonomous mode is why the Location permission is used.
See http://www.meavydev.co.uk/ARDrone.html#Autonomous

Video Recording:
* Video recording to a file and/or USB recording on V2 Drones.
* Local video recording with optional overlay of drone flight information. When used without overlay this is in HD for V2 drones.

UI Configuration:

* Individual icon, text and joystick scaling.
* Separate joystick deadzones and sensitivities.
* Colour and saturation sliders to change on-screen UI colour and intensities of all UI.
* Hide all on-screen UI at the touch of a button to fly by drone video using the HUD.

Flight Control:
* Fly by tilt, on-screen joysticks or USB gamepads.
* Use normal, absolute or combined yaw flight modes.

Profiles:
* Create multiple profiles for uses like indoor and outdoor settings; day or dusk UI; HUD on/off etc.

GamePad Mapping:
* Gamepad mapping allows the mapping of USB gamepad buttons and joysticks.

After using the freeflight version of this app, and being disappointed with poor response on the controls, I decided I was going to buy a wired controller for Android. Found out this app works with that. After using just with the touchscreen controls, it is clearly superior. I did have issues with initial take-off, but it resets well and is much easier to control. I look forward to trying a wired controller with it next.

Doesnt work with my s7 edge when connected to sky controller, continually drops out and if it does manage to stay connected it wont give a video feed

Q70%
by Q####:

If you're trying to fly your drone in the Adirondacks with no cell service, the app is useless... As it wants to phone home everytime you open it to 'confirm license information' and won't open.

by Q####:

Most of the app works. Cannot use app to update unofficial firmware. When trying to do so the progress bar never moves.

by Q####:

It does what we expected with AR Parrot 1...replace somehow the old 60beat Gamepad and make possible to fly with Android mobile,(60beat Gamepad required iOS)...thanks to the developer ! ????????

Alot of more options than the parrot's official app. Very happy with this app.

C70%
by C####:

Everything seems to work so far except the gyro control for the camera. But seeing as how vr support is why I got the app in the first place, it's a major flaw.

I70%
by I####:

Just purchased the app hoping to use with my Ardrone 2 and stock Nexus 5 running Marshmallow. Sorry Dev but the app crashes as soon as I try and launch it. I'm highly disappointed but I hope to see a fix in the future. For now I took the refund.

Well how can I say this the proper way ? This app is the BEST app that was created for Parrot's drones. This is a MUST HAVE application if you have ARDRONE V1 or V2 even BEBOP. It's very customizable and you can tweak it to your liking and have full controll of the drone. The greatest thing about this is that you use ANY kind of GamePad to control the drone. It has button mapping configuration and linearity and deazones for thumbsticks/joysticks !!! Pair this app with a nice Android tablet and a wifi range extender (maybe an external antenna) and you have your cheap FlightController ! The price is GREAT for what it offers !

Used to be able to use this purchased software with my Ar drone 2.0 but now all I end up doing is constantly trying get a license for a product I have paid for. Crap.

K70%
by K####:

Paid for this app and all it has been doing is retrieving licenses by the time my drone is off the ground it's dead because of having to screw around with this app. Your vr is absolutely messed right up, you constantly require me to disconnect for license and when you retrieve it it still does not actually retrieve them. You stole my money.

S70%

SOLVED! I found a way out for my own problem. I got to uncheck the Autoconnect function for the WiFi to get connected. I gave only 3 stars as the developer didn't even bother to reply to my problem after purchased his app.

I use it with my Note 4 & a $10 dual mode dual shock usb controller & OTG cable. This software is unbelievably great. Cant believe my luck. Well done and keep up the coding. Well worth the price.

AMAZING replacement for Parrot's FreeFlight software. I use it all the time to control my Bebop Drone. Top features are: - Free GamePad key assignment - Google Cardboard support - Profiles (for different flight situations) - Copilot mode Get it today! :D

Works amazing. I'm thoroughly impressed. I use it with my Playstation 3 controller and it's great!! The built-in touch app that comes with the parrot is horrible, and this ARDrone Flight pro is the best possible replacement.

T70%
by T####:

Too bad it won't work. Can't even start the app when connected to Internet-enabled WiFi. When connected to the drone, it's stuck at "Waiting for Drone navdata..." and never does anything. This happens on 2 different phones - one Lollipop, one KitKat. The FreeFlight 3 app works with no issues. No updates since April, seems like the developer has given up. For me, this was a waste of $5.

has been great with the drone 2! hope you can make the bluetooth mini drone - rolling spider work too

Hi i have installed ardrone pro and it detects my bebop drobe but the camera does not work and how do u setup the cardboard function.

S70%
by S####:

If you have an ar drone you need this app. I finally was able to use a controller with it and it only took a couple minutes to set up. Connecting to the drone the first time takes a few minutes but the wait is definitely worth it. Wish there was an acro mode though

Can't get it to work with gameklip, plug & go cable wire on my att gs4 Ill try to figure out but until then 6o beat ios ipad is the way to fly. Android seems to risky

N70%
by N####:

Been flying almost every day for several weeks when weather OK using Free Flight and reasonably happy with a few minor control issues. I read about this app and tried it out with great success. Changing the Max height setting means your drone will crash if you go back to Free Flight but I have no wish to. The absolute control is awesome and automatically adjusts as you turn round to face the drone. Tilting back always brings drone back towards you etc.etc. Love it love it love it and highly customisable.

Developer is tireless in keeping app up to date and answering problems in the forums

Whilst it could use some pre defined profiles to speed setup and the UI could certainly be more user friendly this is a must buy IMHO and worth the time taken to get it setup.

Simply superb, great support in ar drone flyers forum these guys have got my vote great app way better then free flight :)
