Parrot AR.Drone can now be purchased through select retailers for $300

They're practically available at every toy stores and malls around the country, but remote controlled helicopters are quite intriguing when you watch from a good distance at how they're able to provide some kids, even adults, some enjoyment.

However, if you truly want the baddest thing to be flying around the skies, you may want to fetch yourself Parrot's AR.Drone quadricopter that has been making some waves since it was introduced earlier in the year. This iPhone controlled quadricopter is now available for purchase through select retailers in the US, such as Parrot's own online store, Amazon, and Brookstone, for the money vaporizing cost of $300.

Sure it's a hefty premium price to pay, but when it carries along dual cameras and enables you to play augmented reality games with it, you really can't knock its price. So if you have someone on your list that you want to make happy, you can really surprise them by buying this one.
