Man, I love me some AR.Drone. It’s literally the coolest thing I’ve used in a long time. And the best part? It just gets cooler. This video shows us what I’m assuming is a non-doctored video of a WinWise employee using a Microsoft Surface to control a Parrot AR.Drone.

If I had my druthers, I’d love for the entire world to fly around on big AR.Drones, getting fatter and fatter like the humans in Wall-E and seeing the world through a screen. Luckily, two thirds of that dream is already coming true, at least for me!
