At just 192g—lighter than most iPhones—HOVERAir folds like a book in your hand and slips right into your pocket. No bulk, no setup, no hesitation. Portability isn’t about travel; it’s about everyday life—because the best drone is the one you actually use, every single day. That’s true portability.

Easy to operate, stabil flight, great pictures and Videos .
Hanuri Eiland
I really like the HOVERAir X1 PRO! It is simple to use and works well right out of the box. The design is clean and easy, which makes it very simple for anyone to start using it. I also love its user-friendliness. The buttons and features are easy to understand, even if you are not very tech-savvy. Product shows a lot of innovation. It has cool new ideas that make it stand out from other products.
Dr. Wolfgang Krueger
I love the ease of use of the HoverAir. Love the good quality of the images The download of the little films is a bit tedious, needs frequent restarts of either my iPhone 16 or the HoverAir.
Thomas Münnich
Great product….easy to fly .
Darrell Hughes
The takeoff and landing on the palm of the hand works perfectly and being able to film without a controller makes cycling and filming so much easier! Definitely a worthwhile investment!
Joshua John
So to keep it simple. It works amazingly well and is easily one of the best "follow me" drones ever to come out.
Mr Bend Oregon
I sell Realestate and I do a lot of social media recording. I upload a lot of videos to Youtube over 500 currently and this drone has become my favourite because it is so fast and easy to use yesterday I created a 17 minute walk-through in about an hour of total Time at the property which is really efficient.

I am deeply impressed how good the HoverAir X1 ProMax works in autonomous mode. Simply push the button select the mode and have fun with the recorded results. Amazing.

If you're considering investing in a drone for coastal photography, particularly in areas with unpredictable weather, I highly recommend the HOVERAir X1 PROMAX. Its reliability in challenging conditions, coupled with its autonomous features and stunning 8K capture capabilities, makes it an invaluable tool for any serious aerial photographer operating in coastal environments.

It's really incredible, it flies perfectly, it follows me when I ski and the videos are wonderful. It's all I needed
Autopilot means smart flying.

PRO/PROMAX is a self-flying camera that flies itself, frames itself, and thinks for itself.
No controller, no piloting—just lift it from your palm and let it follow.
From skiing to cycling to indoor adventures, it’s the only flying camera that truly goes
on autopilot—staying steady, staying aware, and not losing track.

FAQ
FAQ
1. Are there specific modes for snow sports and biking?
Yes. In addition to being able to follow you from the back, side, and front, we have developed specific follow modes for different kinds of activities to provide the optimal shots for different characteristics of movement and cinematic effects. Some modes will follow you in a more dynamic fashion (visible in many of our engineering demos), while others will lessen sensitivity in favor of smoother video.
2. What are the registration and no-fly zone requirements?
In many countries, the HOVERAir X1 PRO and PROMAX are below any registration weight limits, but this will depend on your specific circumstances. Please refer to your local laws and regulations for specific requirements regarding drone registration and no-fly zones. It is essential to comply with all applicable legal requirements and restrictions to ensure safe and lawful operation of your HOVERAir X1 PRO and PROMAX device.
3. What are the charging options and charging time?
The HOVERAir X1 PRO and PROMAX can be charged using the official 65W charger or charging hub for fast charging. With the charging hub, a single battery can be fully charged in about 45 minutes, and two batteries about 60 minutes. Additionally, you can charge the battery directly by installing it on the device and connecting the device’s USB 2.0 port to a charger. Other charging options include power banks and car chargers.
4. What are the low battery warnings and landing procedures?
X1 PRO series has low-battery warning to ensure safe operation. Before takeoff, the device will not launch if the battery level is too low and will provide a warning. During flight, if the battery level drops below 5% in automated flight modes, the device will either land automatically at its current location or return to the takeoff point. In Manual Control mode, the device will initiate a return when the battery level is low and will land immediately if the battery level becomes critically low.
5. Can I use other chargers to charge my HOVERAir X1 PRO or PROMAX?
Yes. You can use any chargers with USB PD (a fast-charging technology) to charge the HOVERAir X1 PRO or PROMAX.
6. What is the warranty period for the HOVERAir X1 series?
We provide a 12-month warranty on the flying camera device and most accessories. The battery is covered for 12 months or 100 cycles, whichever comes first, and the handlebar mount has a 6-month warranty. Please note that the warranty does not cover damage from user error, unauthorized repairs, or disassembly. Our official services include technical support, repairs, replacements, and other assistance you may need. *EU customers receive a 2-year warranty as mandated by consumer laws.
7. What is the battery life and average flight time?
The battery life is 100 cycles. With a capacity of 1920 mAh, it supports an average flight time of about 16 minutes.
8. Is HOVERAir X1 PRO or PROMAX waterproof?
The HOVERAir X1 PRO and PROMAX are not waterproof. However, with OmniTerrain on, they are designed to fly over water surfaces and capture your exciting moments near or over water.
9. Are photo functions like Manual ISO/shutter adjustable? What about saturation, sharpness, etc.
ISO and shutter are adjustable only in manual mode. We provided a limited number of preset filters, and users of the PROMAX can shoot in DNG and 10-bit HLG and adjust settings like saturation and sharpness in post editing.
10. Where can I ski with HOVERAir X1, HOVERAir X1 PRO, and HOVERAir X1 PROMAX?
HOVERAir self-flying cameras are perfect for capturing your ski adventures in open spaces, along natural trails, or in scenic, unspoiled terrains. Since each ski resort has its own guidelines for drones and aerial devices, we recommend checking with your destination before taking off to ensure that your HOVERAir experience meets any local rules. Following these guidelines helps keep your flight safe and seamless—letting you focus on capturing every breathtaking moment.

I had an original DJI Mavic Mini and enjoyed it while it lasted, but when the gimbal froze and I was looking at a repair nearly the cost of a new drone, I gave it up. Unfortunately, all the newer DJI Minis required a controller that was bulkier than the drone, itself! Fast forward a year and I discovered HOVERAir. It's smaller, lighter, and easier to use, and more capable than my DJI. I haven't tried everything it can do, but so far I love it!

I’ve been using the HoverAir X1 Pro for several weeks now and it has quickly become one of my favorite tools for capturing unique aerial footage – especially for outdoor activities like climbing and hiking. What I really appreciate is how compact and lightweight the drone is – no setup needed, no controller, just launch and go. The different shooting modes are super easy to use, and the tracking is surprisingly accurate even in more challenging environments.
