I don’t know about you, but here at Shizaz­zle we’re not the biggest fans of petty poly­styrene heli­copters that are re-charged from the con­troller and drop out of the sky when you fly it 10 metres away from you. Which is why we’re exited  about the Par­rot A.R Drone. Firstly its not a heli­copter its a quadrip­copter (fancy huh?) Sec­ondly its not actu­ally made of poly­styrene that’s just for pro­tec­tion when you’re not par­tic­u­larly good. Thirdly it has 2 cam­eras on it. Fourthly it’s con­trolled from your iPhone. Fifthly (is that even a word?) You can shoot other drones using aug­mented real­ity that projects a dig­i­tal ani­ma­tion over real life live video which you watch on you iPhone. And if you don’t have friends, or ones who can be both­ered to buy one of these, then you can fight against a robot or plane that will appear.
