Over a year and a half after its announcement, the Parrot AR.Drone is still making headlines. This time they're announcing an all-new competition for AR Drone pilots everywhere with the chance to win a trip to Las Vegas for the championship.
The company also announced a similar competition last month, the results of which have yet to be announced as it is still on-going.
This particular contest is similar in nature. Hopeful pilots video tape themselves undertaking a set of challenges, and then upload those to Youtube with specific tags. Parrot then selects a group of about 15 winners who receive a variety of prizes including iPad's, and other goodies. The grand prize winners will get the chance to fly out to Las Vegas to compete at CES 2012.
Skilled pilots can follow this link to check out the homepage for the contest to see the instructions and the set of prizes available.
We're not completely sure what the challenges will look like, but we can only hope they involve NBA player Steve Nash beating little kids as in the Parrot ad below:
