Parrot is known for very innovative drone technology. I love their design and the Parrot Disco FPV Wing is no exception. BUT! you and me and everyone you know is not allowed to take off or land. This was a huge surprise.
Having said that, I do think that this is great for someone that has never flown and RC airplane before. It`s provably the best way to learn to fly.
