    Excellent, thanks Gary, you sold one on me for sure, cant wait to start using it in my videos. Superb presentation as always.

      Thanks Dawn, looking forward to seeing some X1 footage in your videos.

    That drone is almost perfect for my solo video production, but the 2.7k resolution is a deal breaker for me. I film everything in 6k open-gate, and anything less than 4k just doesn't cut it. Maybe the X2 will be an improvement. Excellent video, brother. Thanks!

    Cheers Gary, I bought one a few weeks back for my MD vids. Took it out for the first time last weekend & enjoyed the ease of use. Like you, the lack of tracking on birds eye and orbit was a shame, but I made it work. I quite liked the audio use for my intro which came out ok, but my biggest positive was the ease of use & speed of set up & fly…..especially with all the other gear we have to carry. Price wise, I paid less than £300 getting it direct from China (came with 2 extra batteries) & will take a chance with after sales etc. all the best, Marcus

    I would think here in the states, it would need a FAA registration or a Part 107 license for commercial use

    Very interesting video Gaz. From someone who's never used drones or indeed has a RUclips channel I guess this little piece of technology would be a great introduction to anyone wanting to give it go. 😀

    Great review, I’ve been looking for something simple like this but I’m on the fence about the X-1

      Understood, it's a lot of money for what it is.
      But it is very cool.

    Nice one Gaz... Quick Q please mate, (as I've thought about getting one of these): I guess the 'Dream' for me, would be to do a chat/'piece to camera' in the Dolly Track mode... If the drone/camera was close enough to see my 'Lip Sync' d'you think sound from the drone's motors would be ok? ...or too noisy? (Love to know anyways mate and, fyi I'd def. recommend that shot for your video content - it could be wonderful... 👊 Cheers fer now, Bobby 🐭

    • @The-skillschool

      Hi Bob, The Hover Air app has a voice recording options through your phone, this will eliminate the drone noise. Also you can use the voice isolation feature in DaVinci Resolve.

    Gary, great review of the drone’s features. Seems a bit expensive and a couple of features are indeed lacking. But for some simple shots to spice up a video it would handle the job… John
