Expert Review: Hoverair X1 Performance

In this video, I review the Hoverair X1 pocket-sized, self-flying camera. *Check out this tiny drone with big possibilities here:* https://hoverair.sjv.io/anmZqM. It is a lot of fun to play with and is designed with your social media content in mind. Join me as I take you through the flight modes and features of this cool gadget. The Hoverair X1 takes off from your palm in just 3 seconds. It has five different flight modes, and new flight modes are constantly being created and are available with firmware updates. It has a triple stabilization system that keeps your footage rock steady even when flying at up to speeds of 25km/hr. Its VIO positioning system keeps you in the frame at all times while avoiding obstacles and maintaining flight altitudes between 0.5 and 15 meters. This is a truly portable drone that weighs just 125 grams and folds down to fit right in your pocket. The Hoverair X1 can film 2.7K footage at 30fps, 1080p at 30fps with HDR, or 1080p at 60fps for nice slow-motion shots. It also takes 12MP photos. *Check out Hoverair on social media:* https://www.instagram.com/hoverair_global/ https://www.tiktok.com/@HOVERAir_Global_ #hoverairx1 #SelfFlyingCamera #HOVERAirX1 #drone #photographersfreedom #dronereview #dronecamera # *The gear I used to record this video:* ▶ Sony a6400 with 16-50mm f/3.5-5.6 OSS lens - https://geni.us/toGei6 (Amazon/Walmart/Adorama) ▶ Sirui W-2204 Carbon Fibre Waterproof Tripod.
