Saw the Parrot Rolling Spider drone for $98 on their website.
I think this is a good price compared to other places I've seen it.
Just sharing it here in case you want one :)

Because Mars.
Same reason for doing 11-13 years of schooling but not learning basic spelling or punctuation - because why not?
You didn't watch the video then?

Thanks OP, just bought one earlier this week at Myer, now thinking whether to return and buy @ Harvey Norman.
Already wrapped up :(
Does Myer price match?Not sure I really want something that's marketed towards a target audience of teenage dipsh!ts, going by the video.
pretty sure it can fly as well.
but i saw a chinese brand just the other day that was the same config for less than half this price from banggood store (under $30 ???).
pay for brand name.http://www.banggood.com/Eachine-H1-2_4GHz-Mini-RC-UFO-Quadco…
I thought the same at first, but this sucker connects with bluetooth. The banggood one comes with a 2.4Ghz controller. Bluetooth usually has a bit of lag in my experience. 2.4G is immediate. I reckon the is a better buy - IF the quality is there.
Anyone tried the banggood version? I've been procrastinating on that for about a year…
it doesn't fly?
well how am I going to create political unrest now?I would much rather donate 100.- to someone who really needs them than buy this thing.
prove your donation
Can you use it to get pics of Craig's mum?
Busshhhh
Gents,
Do not watch the video on the HN website.
The brutal combination of dubstep and an ever present, insatiable urge to troll your sister will destroy your ability to resist purchasing such an item.
You have been warned.
Agreed, that is one way to not get me to buy it.
Also, no onboard camera.
It doesn't have a camera. Don't be fooled by the video which shows some shots that appear to be taken from the drone.
Why they mention camera in description? Is thid false advertising?
Whether you’re rolling out or flying about with Parrot’s mini quadcopter, be sure to snap up cool pictures with the onboard vertical mini camera, then connect to Parrot's Pilot Academy and share your experiences with other drone pilots across the globe.*

Thanks adamadam. Great timing! I purchased a second one of these just under a week ago so used the price guarantee to get $30 back.
just bought one today, fun to play but it takes time to learn how to control it.
it definitely has a built-in camera with a VGA resolution only…
great fun and battery only last around 7 minutes…..
cheers…..price gone back up..
and the deal is back again…. haha
why would you want a dron that cant fly?
