I watched a number of reviews of this drone before buying so I understood what it was, and what it wasn’t. It didn’t disappoint. If you’re wanting an automatic camera-person to film you doing stuff then the lack of learning curve makes this so good. You can do a little bit of stereotypical drone footage but if the sort of thing you a wanting predominantly is soaring landscape drone stuff then this isn’t the drone for you
The drone itself, I’m a YouTuber and I make videos for a history channel that I own. I find it very useful and it’s very easy to carry. Great control and perfect gift for any tech lover.
If you are expecting a DJI type drone this is not it. I have several DJI and they are superb but this is totally different. This is for quick holiday video/photos etc. Or sporting shots like mountain biking / running / skateboard etc. Quality is good. Would I recommend it??? Yes definitely but make sure you have the right purpose in mind
I saw on the story’s with the singer Anitta yesterday and I bought straight away and arrived today. Very quick 🙂
The hoverair is very easy to use, the quality of imagine is perfect . I love i
So I’m not a content creator but I am a tech enthusiast and this drone from HOVERAir is pretty amazing. It’s small and compact so don’t expect a large drone, but it’s ultra stable and can perfectly track you and follow you around.
It has several different modes depending on the content you want to create and it takes off and lands in your hand. I will warn you that upon first look it does not look worth the money, but whenever you use it, it justifies the price tag in no time.
It allows any solo adventurers in the world to create amazing hands free drone shots from just about anywhere and the small size means you can take it on long hikes without any hassle.
The app is pretty self explanatory and it allows you to get connected straight up onto the drone itself however you do need to make sure that you’ve got the most up to date version of it as I didn’t previously and it wouldn’t work so a simple case of updating it meant that I was able to get flying very quickly.
It’s one of those drones that’s virtually impossible to break due to the fact that it has huge cages that are around the propellers and even if it hits something like a tree or branches those don’t tend to go inside and break off the propellers so it’s pretty easy to be able to just pick it up and get flying again even if you aren’t the best at flying straight away you should be able to use this and learn pretty quickly through mistakes.
One of the most fun bits though is when you let it take off from your hand directly and then have it follow you as it has full tracking capabilities and is able to just follow you along whether you’re walking, rolling, or on a bike.
Out of the box and downloaded the app. Wouldn’t connect. Two hours later and gave in. Emailed customer support and received this:

It worked!
Now to get to grips with it and film some clips!
My first recording was in quick time but on downloading it played at the correct speed. Great little drone for the money, easy to use and will be perfect for our upcoming adventures.
Recording speech is fantastic as it cuts out the propeller noise and your speech is nice and clear.
I absolutely love the hoverair x1 as it’s simple to use and is so small it fits in a hoodie pocket and weighs around the same as a mobile phone.
Buy one , you won’t be disappointed!
