AR.FreeFlight 1.6 Software updates for Parrot ARdrone

AR Drone updates at the itunes store http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/free-flight/id373065271?mt=8Coming basically bringing better support for the iPad.  There is also a mandatory firmware update for those wishing to play the newly released multiplayer game, AR Pursuit.

Crunchgear puts the news this way:-

The AR.Drone just got a little more awesome. Hard to believe, yes, but that’s what an augmented reality game can do to your geek cred. The $2.99 app [virtually] equips your AR.Drone with automatic machine guns, rocket launchers, and other goodies in your quest to be the last AR.Drone standing. See, that’s the little issue. This app allows you to seek and destroy another AR.Drone, so hopefully your friends are riding the techno-wave with the best of them and happens to an AR.Drone of their own to do battle. That’s not to say you couldn’t launch a rocket salvo at the cat, but it’s not like Fluffy’s going to counter with his own attack. Video demo after the jump.
