3D Robotics IRIS+ (915 MHz) Auto-Follow Drone

The 3DR IRIS+ is your aerial passport: all you need to get started shooting photos and video from incredible new perspectives. Powered by 3DR’s world famous autopilot, IRIS+ is a robot that will automatically fly itself where you tell it to go, while keeping a camera dead steady with two-axis gimbal stabilization. Fly it manually using the controller or using the advanced 3PV Follow Me mode that turns IRIS+ into your own hands-free camera crew. The 3D Robotics tablet-based software makes flight planning exactly this easy: if you can draw it, you can fly it. The IRIS+ power system gets you 16 minutes of flight time and includes everything you need to make IRIS+ your personal aerial photographer.

How It Works

• Ready to Fly: The IRIS+ box has everything you need to fly. Simply attach the props, charge the battery, and you’re ready to fly manually with the included remote controller autonomously with a Mac, PC or Android device.
• Automatic Mission Planning: Using the free DroidPlanner app, IRIS+ users can plan flights by simply drawing a flight plan on any Android tablet or phone for hands-free flight.
• 16-22 minutes flight time: Flight time varies with payload, wind conditions, altitude, temperature, humidity, flying style, and pilot skill.

Technologies

• Follow Me technology:       - 3rd Person View (3PV) Follow Me technology turns the IRIS+ into a hands-free aerial camera crew that puts you in the middle of your own adventure.       - IRIS+ can be easily setup to follow any GPS-enabled Android/iPhone device.       - The camera stays centered on you, or whoever is holding the GPS-enabled device, to capture sweeping cinematic video from a perspective unlike any other.
• Flight Protection: Lands itself automatically or returns to a home point when it travels out-of-range or runs out of battery.
