When Cycling WeeklyUS Editor Rook put the HOVERAir through its paces earlier this year she had this to say: "If you're looking for new ways to capture your cycling content and have an interest in photography or videography, the HoverAir X1 is a highly user-friendly device with a compact, lightweight design that's really fun to play with."
The HoverAir X1 sure is a tiny package

The HOVERAir X1 is absolutely tiny, standing just 13cm tall and weighing only 125 grams, making it perfect for slipping into a jersey pocket. The X1 is kept in the air by four equally tiny propellers housed within its folding frame for protection. With a built-in gimbal-mounted camera the X1 is capable of capturing high-quality HDR Video of 2.7K at 30fps.
Operating the HOVERAir couldn't be easier. Just select the appropriate flight pattern and, within three seconds, this little drone will take off from the palm of your hand.
The X1 has seven flight modes, five for video and two for photography including follow, birds-eye view, side track and orbit. Dolly track front view mode keeps the moving rider centred in the frame. Impressive.
With a max speed of 13mph/20kph the X1 may not be the fastest drone out there, but it is the perfect tool for capturing incredible scenery on epic climbs or for showing off the technicality of the terrain you tackled on your latest adventure.
