\"\"\/<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Not wanting to lose to the Chinese-dominated drone market, French-born manufacturer Parrot strived to design a mid-range drone that overshoots its bracket in terms of specs and performance. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Parrot Anafi is the endgame of this design quest; a lightweight contender that offers a lot in terms of functionality and features.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since its release back in 2018, the Anafi’s reliable design has urged the brand to produce various iterations of the drone to fit specific niches, like enthusiast flying and industrial applications. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Using the same Base model (albeit with some modifications in these newer versions for increased performance), this new breed of UAVs are ready to take to the skies. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We were really interested in getting hands on with all of the Anafi models \u2014 the regular Anafi known as the Base, the Anafi FPV, Anafi Thermal, and Anafi Work. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

A lot of this desire to review the Anafi came when we noticed the products had quite poor reviews on Amazon \u2014 not awful, but particularly low for a drone with these specs. Then, we noticed that a large number of the negative ratings of the product were actually aimed at customer service, rather than the product itself. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

So we wanted to know…customer service aside, is the Parrot Anafi actually any good? Find out our thoughts in this detailed and honest review.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Parrot Anafi Models<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Parrot has offered the Anafi in four kit variants for different niches and use cases. Refer to the table above for their minor differences in weight, flight time and dimensions, while below are the specifics of each model.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Parrot Anafi Base (& Extended)<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

The Parrot Anafi Base is the standard Anafi model and offers some excellent specs that we discuss throughout this post. As this section exists to identify the differences between the models, we’ll leave it there \u2014 other than saying that the Extended version is exactly the same, but includes two extra batteries to triple the battery life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
