Parrot has unveiled a self-touted "all-in-one drone": a luxury unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) named the Bebop 2 that, among other things, can post 25 minutes of airborne travel time.

Weighing in at about 500 grams, the Parrot Bebop 2 comes equipped with a bevy of sensors that parse the drone's altitude (which goes up to 16 feet) for uninterrupted fly-bys and an HD fish-eye camera installed on a three-axis framework. The drone is piloted with the help of a Wi-Fi connection and downloadable app compatible with smartphones and tablets; the connection itself lasts for about 984 feet.

According to a press release issued by the company, pilots and users don't need any prior flight training to steer the UAV — it can presumably be flown as soon as it's unboxed.

The drone is also pairable with Parrot's Skycontroller Black RC controller, which can extend its flight range to up to two kilometers, or roughly almost 1.25 miles. In addition to this, the Bebop 2 also includes a combination global navigation chipset with GPS and Glonass, as well as the ability to secure and maintain itself in high altitudes.

The Parrot Bebop 2 will be available for purchase on Dec. 14, just in time for the holiday season, for $549.99 USD.
