***Please READ before purchasing! DESIGNED for AR.Drone 1.0 and Pre-2.0 Firmware. This application requires a Parrot AR.Drone and specific iOS hardware requirements. Please do not purchase this application unless you own the AR.Drone 1.0 and have a compatible device. An iPhone 3GS, iPhone 4, iPod Touch (3rd/4th Generation) running iOS 4.1+ or iPad running iOS 4.2 is required EXCEPT iPod Touch 8GB units without a front facing camera. 8GB 3rd generation iPod touches are actually 2nd generation hardware and are UNSUPPORTED. A 4th Generation iPhone or iPod Touch is STRONGLY recommended. DEVICES NOT SUPPORTED: iPhone 3G, iPhone EDGE, Gen 1 iPod Touch, Gen 2 iPod Touch, Gen 3 iPod Touch 8GB. ***

Supports Drone firmware 1.7. The P264 codec may not be the best for video recording due to sensitivity to dropped frames. Your mileage may vary. VLIB mode is available as an alternative.

Flight Record is a simple flight control application that allows you record your AR.Drone video while you fly.

Features include:
- Video recording to H264 QuickTime format (up to 15fps)
- Export to camera roll for trimming, posting to YouTube or use in iMovie compositions.
- Export video files using iTunes File Sharing
- Standard AR.Drone flight controls - Including left handed, no accelerometer control modes, and 1 handed ACE mode from early FreeFlight versions.
- Switch cameras using the "CAMERA" button on the left side.
- Manual emergency reset function
- A virtual instrument panel, including Directional Gyro, Artificial Horizon, altimeter, and forward speed. These plot the navigational data received from drone.
- Still image capture
- Overlay of instrument panel on video and still image.
- Television out with supported device and accessory cable. (not supported on older devices such as iPhone 3GS, iPod Touch 3G)
- Optional video recording modes: hard-coded 15fps or actual timecode.
- "Land on Quit" option will send one final request to the drone to land in the event the app is exited. Note that this is not meant to be used as an emergency stop, as there are instances where it may not work (in the event of communications failure, or application crash, for example)
- Application will opts-out of iOS multitasking, and will quit completely on exit.
- EXPERIMENTAL: Voice Recognition settings-- turn on in iOS Settings App to make available in FlightRecord settings.

While we're confident in the performance of Flight Record 1.7, we're starting to push the limits of what can be accomplished without impacting flight control. Each user's device configuration and setup is different, so evaluate the performance and use of the application yourself. As with any new drone flight control app, please test in a safe and controlled situation until you are confident and aware of the performance characteristics and control nuances. A 4th generation device is strongly recommended. Disabling features (TV-out, instrument overlay, etc) can reduce processing overhead on older devices. Avoid multitasking with other applications to reduce load and enable Airplane mode to reduce interruptions.
