The size of this drone should not make you underestimate it. It can fly at speeds as high as 8m/s which is quite impressive for a small drone. Controlling it is very easy. You can launch it from your palm and use hand motions to control its movement thanks to the Intel Movidius Myriad 2 VPU technology it has which enables it to sense movement. This drone can fly in a smooth motion and can even dodge items on its way by flipping. Getting into POV is very easy using nothing but your phone. The flight patterns can be programmed using the Scratch. This is a coding tool that is easy to use and can be used by anyone with little effort.
