Your style of editing is very authentic and unique. Love it. I also just got the drone and its mindblowing. Sad about no 4k though, maybe with the next version?
I'm an ultralight hiker and I also think this little drone is great! The low weight 125g is a real game changer compared to the 750g mini4pro with a controller. I also think the manual mode is cool for creating cinematic videos or pictures. My wishes!? Better camera with 4k quality and RAW recording More range in manual mode 50m height and Range would be great! (currently 15m height and 30m range)
Great review about the weaknesses of this drone. I own it and like it a lot. My use case is really just for fun shots of me and my wife on vacation, taking walks, at beautiful vistas and places etc. I love it!
Thanks for this video. I was curious for how it would perform as an action sports follow cam. Hopefully the 2nd generation has a better camera, and can fly faster (I want it to keep up to me snowboarding). The sports mode you mentioned would make a lot of sense as well. Hopefully the company listens to your (and other action sports people's) feedback.
Biking in the woods isn't that fast so I only need it to go a bit faster. Skiing and snowboarding is much faster so I guess the 2nd gen would need a lot more power to be able to keep upl. This is a great proof of concept, though! Thank you for your comment!
HI! I can't seem to get an answer from anyone [and maybe I'm looking in the wrong places] but do you know if the drone app is Apple only? All our phones here are Android. Thanks!
In the app, connect to your Hover and you should find the footage there somewhere. Select a few clips and then select download to get them to your phone. It’s pretty straightforward.
@BAMCreator even gen 100 of this thing won't work .. you will be better of with 360 cam on a stick behind you .. all those drones are pure waste of money

Wow, thanks! :)
I'm not too bummed over the 2.7 resolution. I would want a bit better image quality though.
Very nice review with some fantastic shots! Man I miss mountain biking, have a Trek and a GT. Just can't bike anymore because of my back injury.
Great review and superb "selfie drone"! I ordered X1, next year will get PRO/MAX when they fix some issues, keep up great work!
Thank you! I just got the Pro to review. What are the issues you mentioned?
@@OutdoorsMedia FB groups are full of problems of new received units, I hope your is OK, waiting for your review. :)
Very detailed review. Well done
thanks for sharing! I totally agree with your wish list too!🤩
Great video, very helpful. They do have a new hard case that just fits the drone itself.

wow. this is the kind of review i was looking for. testing the limits. now i can really decide if i am going to buy it.

Thank you! Yes, it's perfect for walks. But I want it to be perfect for MTB riding too. :)
All,those people, “OH NO…ITS A DRONE!…it’s gonna record us!”
Then proceed to post every picture and video of themselves on TikTok.
Super nice Review! I'm impressed how well the drone kept up with you, for my more relaxed travel cycling it would be awesome!
Thanks! 👍
Real one, thank you bro, good edits too
Oof 3 weeks ago, thank you thank you I almost bought one. I fixed a Skydio R1
Yeah its the drone we want, but we just need an upgraded version of it! better camera for sure, and some obstacle detection!
And about £500 more
@@Dronesteve-72 fun fact, Dji is making this drone. in a complete package of 330 dollar. But it dint have sensors though.
Nice review sir. Thanks.
Shred on! 🤘
It’s amazing but why it hits the trees sometimes it need more upgraded and updated sensors so it can calculate the whole sourrounded environment
Like your presentation 👍😎
Thank you 👍
Ist ne coole unkomplizierte Drohne die man immer dabei haben kann. Finde ich super. Grüße ronactive

Sport mode and can use it over the water plus a bit more of batery power
HI! I can't seem to get an answer from anyone [and maybe I'm looking in the wrong places] but do you know if the drone app is Apple only? All our phones here are Android. Thanks!
It works with Android too.
@@OutdoorsMedia So good to know! Thank you!!!!!
How can operate if manual mode?
new a1 promax is onsale. Just how you wanted. Faster better camera made for skiiing and mountain biking.
Yes, it looks promising! 👍 Have asked for a copy to review, but they are not available yet.
🎉
hi, Can we attach Go pro on top of this drone? can this drone hold go pro weight?
Most likely no. The drone is tiny and weighs less than a GoPro.
Great video do you think the Hover would follow 2 bikes together
Haven't tried that. It might get confused. But 2 bikes following each other would probably work.
How do I see my footage? I just got one but can’t figure this out. Ty

@@OutdoorsMedia I did it!!!! Thank you!
Yay! 😁
i also recorded while on my road bike -inspired by your video! :) Thank you!

You would think being a selfie drone it would have obstacle avoidance
Yes, but at the same time it's a very small drone. A forward facing sensor would be great though to avoid all of these head-on collisions.
I use skydio 2 with a beacon on the wrist
The obvious option. Better in every way probably, but doesn’t fit in a pocket.
I wonder if anyone's tried sticking the gopro on top of the drone !
The drone is too small to carry any payload. It only weighs 125 g and a GoPro weighs over 150 g to put things in perspective.
works only if you are really slow on the bike :/ there is no drone good enough to follow mtb rider going fast other then fpv and pilot :D
Yes, speed is an issue when you want to look fast. Let’s hope for a faster gen 2 Hover.
