The first Minidrone aeroplane with vertical take-off and landing

Discover Parrot SWING, from our Minidrones range designed to learn piloting with small drones. With Parrot SWING, pilot easily a plane (powerful autopilot and strong structure) to have thrilling flying sensation at high speed and race between obstacles.

It’s time to Pilot & Race.

Minidrone at its best!

Parrot SWING can be flown indoors and outdoors, alone or with friends, and is easily controlled with Parrot Flypad controller, a smartphone or a tablet. Parrot SWING, with high-tech sensors and software, is one of the most stable quadcopters and plane on the market.

A unique plane with unique shape

The X-shape is the result of an aeronautical conception allowing Parrot SWING to be the only drone to fly horizontally or vertically. With a simple glide, transform your drone into a plane and do aerobatics never seen on the market (Looping, barrel roll…) at high-speed. Looking for a rest? Easy get into quad mode to stabilise your drone.
