I Put the HOVERAir X1 ProMax to the Real Test… Here's My Verdict

This video is sponsored by Zero Zero Robotics. HOVERAir Website: https://noxl.ink/_tgwa2 The HOVERAir X1 ProMax 🚁 is one of the most interesting drone concepts I’ve tested recently. Instead of carrying a traditional drone and controller, this tiny flying camera launches directly from your palm and automatically follows you while recording.

I test autonomous flight modes like orbit and dolly zoom, challenge the obstacle avoidance in a forest with branches, and see how well it keeps up while cycling. I also take a closer look at the Beacon controller system, which can transform from a small monitoring device into a motion controller and even a full traditional controller with your smartphone. For creators, travelers and outdoor enthusiasts this is a fascinating concept: a portable flying camera that captures cinematic shots almost completely hands-free. Let’s see how the HOVERAir X1 ProMax performs in real-world conditions. 🚁 ⏱ Chapters 00:00 Sponsored intro, Palm launch & cinematic B-roll 00:27 First look – design & portability 01:25 Autonomous flight modes 02:47 Obstacle test in the forest 05:27 Cycling follow test 07:19 Hover App Settings 09:15 Beacon Motion controller test 11:47 Full controller with smartphone 13:30 OmniTerrain capability & wind resistance 14:31 Final thoughts - Hightlights & Twearks Thanks again to Zero Zero Robotics for sponsoring this video and providing the HOVERAir X1 ProMax for testing.

Max altitude remained below 30m AGL. Flights were kept within visual line of sight (VLOS), legal altitude limits, and away from uninvolved people. The location was checked in advance using the DJI Fly App and Austro Control’s Dronespace map. #HOVERAir #X1promax #besttrackingdrone #followmedrone #selfiedrone (*) Links in this description marked as Affiliate or Referral may earn me a commission from qualifying purchases.
