HoverAir X1 Pro & Pro Max Announced - Massive Upgrades

[@Master0fHyrule]

8k for Pro Max! Can't wait for your review!

[@WhoYaGonnaCall]

I am so happy with my HoverAir X1. 😃 The upgrade by pro to 4k sounds great!

[@Master0fHyrule]

Quick question: Do you have a Part 107 license to post videos on the drone?

[@Roos-Reviews]

You asked if I have a Part 107 license, but I am wondering if maybe you meant to ask whether or not a person needs to have a Part 107 license in order to post KZbin videos shown with the drone(?)

[@Master0fHyrule]

@@Roos-Reviews Technically, both questions are accurate. Since (assuming) you are monetized and this is considered a drone, don't we need to have a 107 license to post it to youtube? (especially since the new one is coming soon and wanting to be prepared).

[@Roos-Reviews]

@Master0fHyrule Well, to answer the question that you asked me, I don't have a Part 107 license. The Part 107 is a USA thing. It does not apply to other countries, and I am not in America.

[@Master0fHyrule]

@Roos-Reviews Do you have an equivalent one (based on your country) or is the laws totally different? I'm just hoping I can just post the X1 Pro Max without needing one since lots of rules don't pertain to the Hover X1 compared to a DJI.

[@trickysyoutube]

Oh great I do hope you get one soon to review. Coz your reviews are excellent 😊

[@ArminHirmer]

wooooooow! and I just thought that if I want 4K I need to get the ugly Neo :D I just love this company! Pricing will be interesting though

[@Roos-Reviews]

Yes, aesthetically the Neo doesn't exactly excite me the way the X1 Pro/Pro Max does. And it doesn't fold up either. Maybe the price will be the determining factor for people.

[@ArminHirmer]

@@Roos-Reviews prices are looking great, less than I expected :)

[@RonaldBrown59]

Very impressive camera specs on the Max Pro. How soon do you think it will be released in the US? Thanks for sharing.

[@Roos-Reviews]

I'm not sure. Sorry.

[@garymason7]

Will you be getting your hands on one any time soon? You're one of the few reviewers I find that identifies anything that I would like to know... And then of course a comparison with the Neo.

[@Roos-Reviews]

@garymason7 I'm hoping to get my hands on one in the next week or so. And also the Neo. If so, I will definitely do a comparison video.

[@ihuboo6244]

Im a newcomer and layman when it comes to this kind of tech but let me tell you im highly interested and I'd look forward to this company's lineup with great interest in the future

[@kinocchio]

when is it dropping?

[@Roos-Reviews]

I am not sure, but I am hoping for September.

[@ambchri2000]

I have only just become interested in drones. I watched your video on the original X1 and was taken in, but the quality of the camera was something that seemed dismal. I'm so glad to have seen this new model is on the way, as saves me purchasing the previous model just before this one would have been released. Thankyou for your great review :)

[@AnotherCG]

Just imagine the X2. X2 is going to blow your mind away.

[@randycarothers3046]

I just got the original x1 and wondering if I should return it before I open and get the upgraded camera and other features. Suggestions

[@Roos-Reviews]

Yes, given that there are three better autonomous drones about to launch, I would do that.

[@MiyagisRant]

Wow, looks like I'm going to go poor buying new toys this year 🤣🤣

[@Roos-Reviews]

Me too. Last week I dropped one of my favorite cameras into a very deep lake and had to repurchase it. And now I have a DJI drone and action camera to buy in order to review them in the coming weeks.

[@MiyagisRant]

@@Roos-Reviews Ouch, hope it wasn't an expensive camera that went for a swim :(. Yah, big year for launches as we will see the A5, GP13 and potential the next gen Ace Pro ;)

[@kinocchio]

It's a flying pocket 3

[@Roos-Reviews]

That would be amazing.

[@crisdiez8507]

To see if in the Indiegogo company they announce this product, as for the 1 model at a nice price

[@erick_fernandez_78910]

Oh I'm all about the bigger sensor...

[@cigarbearreviews]

Question is…. Price 😢

[@GorillamansGarage]

If the Hover 1 was/is $399... how high can they go for a flying indoor selfie camera? I can see a "spelunking" application though.

[@Roos-Reviews]

It's not just an indoor selfie camera. It's very capable outdoors.

[@GorillamansGarage]

@@Roos-Reviews do you have one?

[@Roos-Reviews]

Yes

[@BackwardTravisty]

Take my money NOW!

[@Roos-Reviews]

Haha that's what a lot of us are thinking.

[@TheFandangovideoguy]

Maximum altitude 5500m!!!! Almost in outerspace then! I will wait for a real review...keeping my mini 4 pro

[@SFBenjaminK]

The best thing to do ,get it on Time they release as pre-order on promotion discount price on lounge day... You'll get that the cheapest price sometimes cheaper an Black Friday, My eyes on that ProMax, definitely getting that, because I was holding back for 4K camera

[@SFBenjaminK]

3 DAYS to go release in Indigo

[@Dronesteve-72]

The DJI boys are all expecting 8klm at 135 grammes lol😅

[@AnotherCG]

Who wants to buy my X1? I'm upgrading to X1 Pro MAX baby!!!!

[@dansr4always]

could you explain the difference between the vision-based active collision detection vs rear-side active collision detection for these two models?

[@Roos-Reviews]

One has just a sensor and the other has a sensor and a rear facing camera.

[@Aus_Oberbayern]

10000 or 1200 Euro ??

[@Roos-Reviews]

I'm pretty sure it won't cost 10,000 euros.

[@JerseyStyle7]

👍🏽i should have kept my Skydio 2 😢

[@SFBenjaminK]

Announcing the prices by Monday release to buy Definitely getting that ProMax no doubt especially getting in on that combo pack with a 40% off they offering No brainer 🤙👌🤞💪

[@Roos-Reviews]

Their prices are already on the website. Starting from $399 and $599.

[@SFBenjaminK]

@@Roos-Reviews Yeah I saw it yesterday, I am the first one getting the ProMax on Monday with 40% off on combo pack 2. . To me is a little pricey but oh well it's compact, easy to carry and use

[@pasky7777]

This drone is taking advantage of skydio’s terrible idea to leave the consumer market. Good on them. I wish them well. Screw skydio.

[@MelvinArias-c3g]

Im totally with u fuck those arseholes at skydio i got burned closed to $2500 and 3 months later they drop us fuck them

[@harley21production]

C'est pour ça que dji a fuite la sortie du néo....

[@Ozpeter]

The first one tempted me. These ones are somewhat irresistible. There is only one course of action for me. I shall have to drop my wallet in the river. But the 8k model makes me wonder whether we will see an 8k Pocket 4 before long...

[@Steal_ex]

If you are talking about DJI Osmo Pocket 4, the previous ones were made with an interval of 2-3 years. And the third one came out a year ago. In general, not soon.

[@Ozpeter]

@@Steal_ex yes, I should have said "one day" instead of "before long".

[@Steal_ex]

​@@Ozpeter 8K is good, of course, but there is nothing to watch it on yet. You need a projector or VR to get a screen of the appropriate size with FOV 130° (that's right, degrees, not inches). There are none of those yet, and with the TVs that are available, you have to sit right next to them to get FOV 130. But the most important thing is that 30 frames per second is not enough for such large screens, you need 120. Otherwise, there will be strobing.

[@aceapolonio7284]

@@Steal_ex I upload my travel videos on KZbin and Instagram. Should I get the 4k when it's released? Or should I invest on 8k?

[@Ozpeter]

@@Steal_ex The immediate advantage of an 8K image is that you can crop it to 4K to achieve a high quality zoom. The 8K original can of course be rendered to 4K for viewing on typical TVs but you have the extra resolution of the original for the future when 8K TVs have become cheap.

[@keytiger7]

With a small battery ,in 8k, or 4k it will eat up a battery in 6 minutes. The price will be 599 4k and 699 8k ,not even worth something that only flies about 8 minutes in real world time. It states 16 minutes but no drone actually gets the time stated from these companies.

[@Roos-Reviews]

They claimed the X1 would get 11.5 minutes and in my test following a bicycle I got about 9.5 minutes. Hopefully the pro in follow mode will get 12 or 13 minutes, which is probably roughly the same as the Neo is going to get in the real world. I think until we've actually tested it, we can't really say the battery is only going to last six minutes.

[@jc171177]

as an x1 user who sold my mavic pro and mini...I can comment that without all the faff on the mavics you don't need a 30 minute battery. You turn the x1 on, it goes up and takes the shot and is back down very quickly. I've taken all the drone shots I need on a long hike with 1 battery. Saves time as its so efficient and helps with editing as you don't have minutes of fluff footage to wade through. The only downside was the image quality (which was fine for me) but this is resolved with this new version (with a few added extras).

[@keytiger7]

@jc171177 That's, u sir, the people I know want more time, as it written by them in most comments

[@spockfpv]

Maybe try a different voice over artist. This voice is very droll. Maybe a little excitement in your tone, just my opinion.

[@rodzinne2856]

The scammers get them for free because customers will get them in October! DJI Neo will be in September and HoverAir doesn't have a remote control - I noticed that the presentations are without other people in the background, coincidence? No! This drone loses the object and you will lose it!!

[@Roos-Reviews]

I don't really understand all the things you were saying, but I can tell you that the new hoverairs do have an optional remote control with two joysticks and a phone holder.

[@yamamamama6219]

Flight time sucks and battery

[@user-true_talk]

video stabilizer system is Proffesional level or beginner level?

[@BlackJacketJones]

Quieter, and better at dodging stuff, better at staying focused on one human in a crowd of humans. Longer flight time. All I ever see is people filming in remote locations.
