I did something similar about six years ago: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uhBa11gdbeU

I used a (Python) natural language parser of my own creation (this was before intent classification was a big thing), Nuance speech recognition, and a javascript (node) interface to the AR.Drone.

Haha- the drone not landing when you told it to is basically the beginning of every sci-fi movie where the robots turn on the people.

Great job.

Seriously impressive! I particularly noted the speed of command to actuation.
