A tiny quadcopter drone is now available for pre-order.

Bitcraze’s tiny open-source drone burns its way into the market this spring, aimed at hackers and modders experimenting, both indoors and outdoors.

Cost $ 149, the device is controlled by a computer at a frequency of 2.4 GHz, as well as a gyroscope and an accelerometer on the drone board for stability. A more sophisticated version, for $ 173 with a magnetrometer and altimeter will also be available.

Less than 10 centimeters long and weighing 19 grams, the device, due to its small size, can fly under tables and chairs and through small openings.
