    Founded in 1994 by Henri Seydoux, Parrot is a drone company that is all about fun and features. It may not be the fastest or greatest photography option, but Parrot always knows how to stand out.

    DJI Phantom 5 | The Coolest Possible Features

    The new Phantom 5. Is it going to be like a Mavic 2.0 or even an Inspire 2 Plus? For some time past there have been various speculations about the new drone in social networks. But I won’t make any speculations here – I would like to present my wish list with improvements and functions that would convince me of the upgrade. Because the new model will for sure not be cheap again. Wish 1 Zoom. After DJI had significantly improved the camera of the DJI Phantom 4 Pro, it is abo
