There is no dearth of drones, whether you look at the myriad designs or the number of manufacturers. Many feel that the world can do with fewer drones. But that would not be as much fun. What we really need is a drone that is more user friendly, convenient to fly and it should be quieter, smaller and more utilitarian. Many drones, which are also rather expensive, are quite difficult to fly. They make substantial noise which makes stealth filming almost impossible and the sheer size is also a bummer.

Get introduced to Micro Drone 3.0 which is going to change the basic premise of how drones are flown and who get fascinated with drones. Typically, drones are expensive unless you are opting for the ridiculously priced ones which would anyway go kaput in a few days. Micro Drone 3.0 is affordable and more importantly it is one of the niftiest and most utilitarian drones around.

Micro Drone is just as big as the size of your two palms. That’s how small it is. It weighs 56 grams without the camera and 71 grams with one, that’s how light it is. It is compatible with iOS and Android, it can be tethered to a smart phone using Wi-Fi, the range is 50 feet with a smart phone and 300 feet with a 2.4 GHz radio. The small battery supports a flight time of eight minutes. There is an accelerometer, electronic compass and 6-axis gyroscope but what will really entice you is the auto leveling, inverted flying, sensor assisted flying, ability to soar in 45 mph wind speeds, capability to shoot 1280p by 730p high definition videos, protective bumpers for indoor flying and expansion packs.

Whether you are an avid videographer, an amateur filmmaker, a drone racer or just someone who loves to have some fun, the Micro Drone 3.0 is a must have in your gearbox.
