AR.Race2 is now the official App to use for piloting AR.Drone 2.0 with iPhone/iPad. It allows you to choose your preferred flying mode: free flight or timed race.
JUST FLY! - The “training” flight option enables you to pilot the Parrot AR.Drone 2.0 and to take aerial photos and videos. Connect to your AR.Drone toy by Wi-Fi and you are ready to fly! Use iPhone, iPod or iPad touchscreen as a directional pad to control your AR.Drone.
AEROBATICS! – Make your AR.Drone 2.0 flip in mid-flight using a simple double-click.
TIMED RACE - The timed race option within “AR. Race” enables pilots to compete on a chosen circuit.
Only one AR.Drone 2.0 is needed to play. Fly alone or with friends where competitors race one after the other and try to set the fastest time. Just share controls with your friends to register players lap time. Use your surroundings to create an unlimited number of racing circuits. Each tree, each door, every object can become a part of the AR.Race2 track. In just a few seconds, a new circuit is born. Race times are recorded. Share them and challenge your friends. To create a circuit, just fly over the printed target included in the AR.Drone 2.0 box. It marks the start/finish line.
3…2…1 GO!
Enjoy your flights and races!
NOT COMPATIBLE WITH AR.DRONE FIRST-GENERATION.

Accelerometer and tilt control have been removed! Yuck!
Kayakbabe yawls
That was the most enjoyable part of flying the drone.. The fact I can use tilt on my ipad and phone. Made it natural to fly! Why? Parrot? Why?! Bring it back! I was going to get another drone so I have 2 of them for racing against friends.. But not now.
False advertising

Company advertises tilt control. Purchased the drone assuming it had tilt control... Got it in the mail today, just to discover that option has been removed, and parrot screwed us all... I hope I can partake in the class action they deserve... They should have a large sticker on the box or advertisements stating NO TILT CONTROL, as well as lower their price since you are no longer getting what you paid for...
Thanks for the control
Supercooljr
This is exactly what I was looking for, more control. Now I must learn how to pilot using yaw, pitch and roll!
Glad I Read The Reviews Here First

I almost bought this drone. Because no reviews are favorable I opted not to purchase. I will look for other options.
Loved it

I do not understand everyone's complains, because I didn't have the older version so I do not know what is missing. My personal experience flying my drone for the first time was amazing, I loved it, it was much easier than I expected, smooth and I loved the camera quality, I doubted how good the camera was and I attached my gopro (which added more weight to the drone) and I had no problems I even took a risk and flew it by a river and i had full control. I'm very please!!!! Test it if you can, do not make a deist ion based on others opinion
Won't purchase AR Drone now

I'm glad I read these reviews. I was on the internet ready to purchase the copter until I just read these reviews. Not what they advertise on their site. They should be sued. Blatant false advertising. They lost my sale for The holiday. Thanks for the feedback everyone. Saved me making a huge mistake in buying the drone.
No Sound, really bad Race experience

Downgraded to 1 star. Parrot taking our money and running with 0 AR.Race updates in a year. ______ AR Race 2 is only single player take-turns racing. This is a bummer by itself. However this unfinished app has a REAL PROBLEM - NO SOUND signaling the countdown, start and end of the race. So what happens is you are about to start when wind causes the drone to drift a few inches from the target and the countdown is interrupted and you have to hover back. If you drift late in the countdown, you get a false start. If you drift after go and the pass over the target, you will get a 1 second lap time. With NO SOUND, you are always looking from iPad to Drone. It's so frustrating. Note: For all the people complaining about lack of absolute control, why don't you learn joystick mode (Left-Handed). If you do, you will develop skills that easily translate to RC quads and helis. Solution: 1. Minimum 5 second laps. 2. Faster countdown 3. Audio saying 3,2,1, Go or just the Major from AR Rescue saying Go!! 4. Audio signaling lap complete. 5. No false starts, just restart countdown.

This app made my drone go nuts and cancelled his emergency protocol he's propellers were very damaged and I can't connect to him but the AR free flight works great too bad I tried this one too
