Cool, that was fun to peruse. Any comments on the Parrot AR drone? Is it worth looking into or just a dud?

Battery life is short. You need at least two batteries so you can fly uninterrupted. My parrot drone has 12 mins battery which is short. Just when you're enjoying flying the battery runs low.

A coworker has one, looks like a decent and relatively cheap choice, but it seems the others recommended have better battery life.

Edit: looking on Amazon, there's a 2-battery version which looks good.
