Yes, you read that right! I am talking about a quadricopter which can be controlled by your iPhone or iPod Touch. It soars through the air and literally transforms your iPhone or iPod Touch into a cockpit! Wondering how it works?
To control this four-propellered flying quadricopter, you need to install an iPhone application called AR.Drone. A.R.Drone quadricopter works over a Wi-Fi b/g network, and just in case you fly the A.R.Drone beyond the W-Fi coverage, the Autopilot feature of the quadricoptor takes command and stabilizes the A.R.Drone to perform a soft landing!

The A.R.Drone’s battery life gives you 15 minutes of flying time. 15 minutes sounds petty bad but it's got a live video streaming feature as well. BTW, the A.R.Drone uses a 1000 mAh, 11,1V LiPo battery (costly but light). It will be available by the first week of March but the price is still a secret.
If you are a counterfeit iPhone owner you won't be able to use this because it requires the genuine iPhone app. You may need to wait until the shanzhai launch an iPhone clone which can run genuine apps from the Apple apps store, or wait until the shanzhai come out with a similar soaring product.
