Parrot Mambo FPV review

The new Mambo is a small, fun and easy to fly racing drone for beginners

Intuitive controls ; Great fun to fly ; Interchangeable parts

Short battery life ; Image quality could be better ; Video lag

The Parrot Mambo is an adorable little critter that we imagine is going to be finding itself on many a Christmas list this year. It’s similar in a lot of ways to its predecessor, but the addition of a camera and Parrot’s FPV headset turns this fun...

Parrot Mambo FPV review

The little drone with the big selling point: FPV flight

FPV flight works well ; Simple to set up and fly ; Great price for a starter kit

Drifts around too much in the air ; Short battery life ; Poor camera quality

FPV flight on the cheap is wonderful, but the Mambo package is a little rough around the edges

Parrot's Mambo drone packs a tiny peashooter (hands-on)

This palm-sized drone brings the joy of flight for would-be pilots on a budget.

Parrot turned its Mambo minidrone into an FPV racer

With a new add-on camera, FPV headset and controller, this bundle lets you learn to race at your own speed.

Parrot Mambo FPV: Cheap First-Person Thrills

On its own, the Parrot Mambo drone is a lot of fun to fly, but the accessories that Parrot packs with the Mambo FPV kit make this a very good deal for those seeking an inexpensive drone to play around with. If you get bored with the camera, you can...

Easy to fly ; Comfortable controller ; Good price for package

Occasionally glitchy connection

This package — which gives you a drone, a controller, a camera and FPV goggles for less than $180 — is a near-steal.

Parrot Mambo Drone review

Fire a canon, drop a bomb, do tricks with Parrot's latest minidrone

Stable and precise ; Flying BB gun!

Expensive in a crowded market ; Works better with optional Flypad

Everyone will like playing with this and it might be a gateway drug (for some) into the world of drones. At $200 it's affordable. But there are cheaper options available.

Decent starter drone

I bought this little drone kit as a relatively cheap entry into the world of drones and drone racing. I chose this particular kit as it is probably the cheapest you can get that has the "FPV" camera and headset, which is widely used in drone racing and...
