The Parrot Rolling Spider gives new meaning to the phrase "drive me up the wall." This minidrone comes with a pair of removable wheels that let you roll along the walls and ceilings of your house as if gravity didn't exist. The wheels also protect your minidrone's propellers from scrapes and crashes in crowded spaces. The Rolling Spider's multi-sensor flight computer lets you perform U-turns, barrel rolls, and more at top speeds of 11 mph. Meanwhile, the built-in ultrasonic sensor, 3-axis gyroscope, 3-axis accelerometer, vertical camera, and pressure sensor stabilize your Rolling Spider every time you take off. You won't need eight legs to pilot this air-achnid, all you need is a smartphone or tablet and the FreeFlight Mini app (available for iOS and Android). The intuitive controls make it easy for beginner and adept pilots alike.
