Mastering Cinematic Solo B-Roll with a Self-Flying Camera | HoverAir X1

[@LearnOnlineVideo]

Is this the future of solo filmmaking? Let me know below 👇🎥👌

[@MaeFilipinavlog]

It's so perfect for solo filming

[@leoxlife]

How can I buy

[@LearnOnlineVideo]

Hey@@leoxlife I've link it in the video description 👍

[@kimcheval1]

It has a memory card inside or you need your Phone to get the footage? And do you think it works with no internet? I am often in remote locations! I think I absolutly need one!!! I ride horses solo! So I need something really safe for not hurting them!!

[@Mera_mulk]

[@ZeroZeroRobotics]

Hi from Zero Zero! What a fun creative way to introduce the HOVERAir X1 - we love seeing how people unleash their creativity. Next time you can try "Smart Control" too where you can launch different flight modes using gestures, and returning to follow (back or dolly track) in between! Cheers, Sarah from HOVERAir

[@PulpParadise]

Thank you for sending this to him to test. I've never seen such a drone before and this little thing is completely next level and far cheaper than the drone I was planning to buy.

[@robinguysharman]

Can this amazing little machine be set to follow my dog instead of following me?

[@SideQuestTravelVlogs]

Please add manual controls over water 🙏🙏

[@PhanRangBoy]

HeroHero, I truly love your product. For the next drone version, would you increase the time flying? Also, I think Micro SD slot is the best and don't mind about the size being bigger.

[@WORTHITORNOT]

I’ve been using the X1 for the past year and it’s great to get the look of a second cameraman with you and it’s still working great. Such a powerful little tool

[@WORTHITORNOT]

@@NubisKubis-gc9if In manual mode using the phone app yes

[@WORTHITORNOT]

@@NubisKubis-gc9if I don’t know, I have an iPhone, click his link and see if it does

[@yaviraj1022]

But it's too costly ! 470$

[@jmpersonal2402]

My Hover AIr X1 is my new buddy (Herbie) when I take photos/videos. They are great shots for me, enough to present my weird tales to my family. I learn something new every day. My stuff is purely for the grandkids but little Herbie Hover's quality does amaze me.

[@Maximilan20]

I don’t how to describe how AMAZING your videos are like SERIOUSLY dude. for such a pettit device it seems pretty much the real deal

[@mountainbikingfortherestofus]

Geez, what a professional production. I have been playing with filming and editing for two years, and can tell you it is not easy, at all, to make videos this well. A+

[@chrispatriot]

I was glad to see you tie all the different modes into together and make a cinematic ending. Some people really need to see things tied together to full understand the level of value one gets out of this device. I just got mine this morning, and of course, the first thing I'm doing is "learning" and "gathering creative inspiration" from all the podcast producers out there like yourself. Thank you for showing off the HOVERAir X1, it is truly a great device!

[@TB_Production_aka_TB_76]

I've seen the Hoverair X1 drone demonstrated on many KZbin channels, and based on that, I thought it was a indifferent gadget. After seeing, what pretty amazing results, you were capable of getting out of it, and how well it performed in your rather extreme test, I must say, I'm now very impressed. Great tests, great video 😎

[@kenhaley5450]

Love the fact that you talked to it! Great video showing the possibilities of using this drone and you’re one of the few reviewers I’ve seen who talk about its manual mode for more creative footage.

[@Kevinfordsynthesizers]

I’m pretty much amazed. Beautiful work, technology and creativity working together.

[@jonatanaugust6793]

This is amazing, I was just thinking of something like this recently and I see now it’s possible.

[@hummerzdca]

Yeah, I’ve had one some several months now. It was pricy at first, but the more I used it, and found how easy and manageable its small frame, and easy to use made it a variable tool I;d never figured I’d have. Great post Mate!😊

[@HarleyGeezer1954]

My wife got me this for Christmas and it has made an enormous difference to my channel. I don't use it all the time but when I need another camera operator this does the triack.

[@GeoffMcDonald]

I'm impressed. Great video as usual - thanks. And that little drone is something I could go for with it's ease of use a real standout. I couldn't tell it was a self-flying camera. 👏👏👏

[@kiraliu6953]

The best review video I've ever seen!!❤

[@WanderingYooper]

I think they gave that drone to the right guy to try it out! Nice sequence. Gives me some ideas to try out with that thing.

[@we-love-hifi]

The best video about the Hoverair X1 so far! We got our X1 a few days ago and we will use ist on our trip to south tyrol.

[@travelwiththehales]

I just purchased the HoverX1 and thank you for all the useful tips. I will be using them in my next outing.

[@MinivanAdventuresUK]

Wow what a cool bit of kit and not as expensive as I would have expected. I definitely need to get one thanks Steve.

[@TheXanUser]

love the simplicity and ease of use as it is RN. But if and when they add the ability to also manually fly it with any kind of decent joystick controller as well, and this thing will become the swiss army knife of pocket drones.

[@borntoscrap1]

As an Action Filmmaker and Stunt and Fight Choreographer, this is the FUTURE!!!! Great Video well done

[@Lito-r4n]

All i can say is a big WOW❤❤

[@FlutterVR]

Love that I'm not the only one who talks to her HOVERAir X1! 😄

[@Julieandysaceventures]

As someone who is not good at flying drones this could be the answer I have been looking for 😮

[@YTFPV]

This little drone is pretty amazing sure open a world of possibility for film maker specially when solo. Nice work

[@wnbkonahi]

Of all the reviews and demos of this product I've seen, yours IS THE BEST. Thank for your this.

[@LearnOnlineVideo]

Wow, thank you!

[@TheOldGeekGuy]

I bought one myself and can;t stop using it. I have an older Magic Pro but I haven;t used it in months. I'll use this one a lot. Thanks for a great video.

[@newtongardener6417]

Absolutely brilliant. Thank you for showing us this brilliant drone. Great filming too.

[@farm_with_abraham]

No 1fan of steve (online video learning) i got 2k subs after implementing your filmmaking tips. Thanks Steve

[@LearnOnlineVideo]

This is amazing to hear! Well done on 2k subs and thanks for watching.

[@stefw0200]

That's a great video Steve. Most people looking for air /follow up shots on their vacations don't need more than the simple modes this mini drone offers. This is a completely new drone segment. So yes, please do a follow up video. How much noise does this little fellow produce, from how far can you hear it? I hope DJI will notice this missing product in their line-up and make one by themself - but with DJI 4k 10bit video quality. We're living in a great time now with all these new innovations for private video creation.

[@mradjamesable]

Epic - Got mine a few weeks ago and I love it.

[@tcDetects]

I use the Hover for my YT channel, it's great for B roll but I also use it for the intros too as the audio sync feature on the drone/app is spectacular and I think pretty much unique! Thanks for the great video!

[@Svendus]

❤ you now got a filmman on your team thank You for a nice and professional Review 👍

[@lifepairedwithwine8286]

Wow! This is amazing!

[@pupandro1]

Very impressive! So impressive in fact that you've inspired me too try doing different shots and sequences with my Hover Air X1! Thank you for an excellent video!

[@AnneJutras]

Wow! Amazing result! This little drone would be helpful for solo creator for sure!👍

[@daztastic147]

It’s a great product, extremely versatile and suitable for all user-levels.

[@KudaVibes]

💥💥💥Amazing💥💥

[@Leeroyz1]

Awesome video!!! Just what I’ve been looking for! A mixture of shots is key!

[@mississippiapple1078]

Thank you for sharing! Looks incredible

[@ElevationDrone-RRinflight]

Great video, just got my HoverAir X1. I've been flying drones for 8yrs now and this is the easiest drone ever.. Time to create videos!!

[@deerock6655]

Amazing, didn't know that this drone exists! Gonna buy it 💪😎✌️😊

[@PatrickGodwill]

hey Steve, i would like to know the name of the 2 sound effects that come at the beginning of the final 1 minute sequence

[@RobertWildling]

Wow! What a beautiful landscape you have found there! Enchanting! - Thank you for this very informative and entertaining review and tips! Much appreciated! 🙂

[@sibertiger17]

Love the new music cues for each section! Got me grooving! Sounds like "The Bad Touch" by The Bloodhound Gang. Awesome!

[@LearnOnlineVideo]

Thanks! You're the first to notice 🙂

[@jayrchoya5008]

As usual very impressive tutorial..bravo👏

[@RelaxRestAndNature]

Wow this is amazing!! I need one!! And the fact you can fly it manually too, perfect! Brilliant video as ever, thanks Steve! 😃✨

[@NaturErleber]

Hi, you create the best footage I've seen of the drone.... I'm thrilled with what can be done with this little thing.... Mine will arrive tomorrow and thanks to you I was able to see what's possible. .. thank you Marcus

[@JetSurfingNation]

Thanks! Did you try Hover X pro over water and for watersports with self following? Following with the beacon?

[@Rohan7ish]

this is absolutely useful for outdoor enthusiastic people. such an excellent technology. it's a pocket rocket.

[@LearnOnlineVideo]

'Pocket Rocket' I love it :-)

[@dream.lifestyle]

A DJI mini 4 pro is about AUD$1800 for a basic kit and HOVERAIR X1 is about AUD$399 for a basic kit too. Considering dollar value, functions and ease of use the HOVERAIR X1 blows DJI mini 4 out of the water. I am seriously considering buying a HOVERAIR X1 soon.

[@FussionParkour]

It's just what I need, it's difficult to make videos on your own and even more so when they're my style.

[@GrayCodeMedia]

Great video. I love all your videos. I’m here to learn more about photography and videography. Watching you work is awesome.

[@THE.MICHAEL.ANGELO]

How long is the battery life? That's the only thing not covered. Thanks.

[@DirSpeedTheCreativeHands]

I really like your video bro. You did amazing review and the shots are awesome. Much love from Malawi 🇲🇼, Africa

[@yatriprasad]

Great cinematic shots. Learnt some good camera tricks. Thank you!

[@LearnOnlineVideo]

Thanks @yatriprasad, Glad you enjoyed it!

[@paranormalhunts9053]

I treated myself to this drone, I find it works really well. So easy to use and durable. Great video, you really got the best out of it.

[@LearnOnlineVideo]

This was easily the most fun i've had making a KZbin video which I think says a lot about the product. I'm really impressed with how easy it is to use and the way it can crash into things and still be ok 🙂

[@Comets-Media-zimbabwe]

​@@LearnOnlineVideohie Steve that's so amazing I'm Prowess I have been your student since 2022 . I wonder if u could tell me the price of this drone I like it

[@PlayNowWorkLater]

This is amazing!! I’m totally saving up for one of these suckers. Great video, as always. Love your hints and tips, and suggestions of what gear to use. This is a really nice affordable option for starting out and getting great footage

[@wheretheroadtakesus523]

Wow! I think that little drone is amazing. As always love your videos, your a master at work. 📹

[@rev-you1975]

Great review. Great video. Really enjoyed it all. Device looks nice too.

[@Frombehindthelens]

Great edit and amazing piece of kit. Best wishes Graham 🇬🇧

[@edwardtheodore1427]

Awesome sequence lovely matching dramtic music bed.

[@EastHarlemNY6-5atguard]

That was dope 🔥

[@englishwithmaria]

Steve, you've made my day. What a beautiful video!

[@2limbo]

Loved the final sequence.

[@epos_rising]

Cool video ! I noticed the X1 makes a high pitched annoying noise, i hope they fix this with the ProMax. Two questions: 1. Do crashes on trees affect the gimbal? It looks kind of exposed. 2. How fast can you charge one battery fully ,if you connect a PD powerbank to the hover charging hub ? 3. Does it detect well the hand gestures in low light or from a 5m distance ?

[@nectvph]

Thank you for sharing steve iam you're avid viewer. I learn a lot of your content making good camera movement and i applied in my video creation in my vlog. It create a big impact. Thank you Steve!

[@GrumpyDrone]

This is the best review of this little drone that I have seen. Does it have any type of obstacle avoidance, or is it just the way you use and set it? It seems to do rather well between obstacles. Your editing is awesome as always.

[@LearnOnlineVideo]

Hey @Rob_Francis Thanks, I'm glad you enjoyed this video. The HOVERAir X1 does not have obstacle avoidance but It can detect obstacles in its path, when it does it will simply stop moving or land. Even if it does crash though there is no damage (at least in my experience). I must have crashed it at least 20 times, usually when I crash a drone its gets expensive, either a properly breaks or I scratch a lens but this thing is much tougher.

[@GrumpyDrone]

@LearnOnlineVideo Thank you for your response. Just good to know. At least it's tough which makes up for it. Really enjoy your videos. Very informative info.

[@BetaArk50]

Thank you for this amazing video. It shows me the possibilitys to use this little drone. And you give me some ideas to create my next videos.

[@JuanRivasBeasley]

WOWWW!!!!! Absolutely amazing, Steve! Muchas gracias.

[@TaskSwitcherify]

If it had offset rotors, you could fold those "wings" unto/into themselves, saving so much space. Nice video, but it would be nice to start with the specs (flight time, resolution, memory).

[@HATSANIBD]

Very Nice..Love it

[@Goblins_and_Aliens]

Brilliant video as always. i think ill be needing to pick this up for some oof b roll footage.

[@lifetrail_hiking_mentoring]

Incredible! Though I will continue to enjoy hiking in pure peace, away from tech and the need to record it.

[@EPICHIKE]

Did you end up getting it? I also would want to use one for hiking.

[@bigsong]

It looks cool; however, my $300 DJI SE does the same thing with four cages installed around the blades, and Litchi software offers all five of the same features, including 2.7k resolution. Plus, I can steer it out about 1/4 mile over the ocean and get it back with one button push if I lose it anywhere on the horizon.

[@Hendrik-hx2ki]

Great video shooting, very interesting drone. Do you have an idea what the blue lines around the tree branches might be at 4:25 (upper left corner)?

[@Jungle0km]

Thanks a lot Sir for this video This is what I was waiting for. Please make more videos like this with drones.

[@Dronesteve-72]

Very nicely done They can keep the Neo I have a mini mavic to do longer shots The x1 is perfect for me

[@fastrax1949]

A very positve review indeed. I will stay postive by saying that downloading and editing is very easier as well unlike many other units. I use PC and the clips appear clearly listed and numbered. I still use (don't laugh) Windows Movie Maker and transfer is simple. I edit my running films to about 3 minutes trying to include all the modes and add free to use music. A great unit. But seems to be gradually going up in price. Bought the Combo at less than £400 but seen now much higher.

[@stevewturnbull]

Great video that really highlights the features as well as some drawbacks. I've had my eye on this cute little drone for a while as I think it looks great. I think I'll wait for the update though - hopefully 4k and better with wind..

[@trybik871]

amazing😁 a perfect option for recording holiday memories

[@Stealthman42]

Great video as always! Getting mine soon as well. Exactly what I was looking for. Thanks!!!!

[@jacktyler7599]

Fascinating. The kind of drone I would be likely be buy: simple to operate, small in size, protected props. I wish you would have demonstrated the storage and battery capacity limitations you had to accept, it would have made for a better review.

[@AZGeek520]

Nice editing for the final clip. One thing to note is that you have to get the app for this drone -- otherwise there is no way to retrieve the video captured on the drone. I have 5 DJI drones as well as the Hover Air X1 and I use the Hover Air more than my DJI drones. Primarily due to increased restrictions on drones in the US, but also because I do a lot of motorcycle trips and the portability and speed of getting this into the air makes it my "go to" flying camera on my moto trips.

[@petucker548]

Excellent tech. Love mine. Got a clip on lavalier Mike. Thanks for your review.

[@MaeFilipinavlog]

This is very cool things i imagine how i film with this amazing things Always glad to learn filming from you sir as i did filming using mobile

[@MHASANMARUF]

Honestly I had the idea of this drone around 2 years ago. But idea is not enough to turn it into reality. I call it companion drone on my term. It’s good to watch it into reality.

[@GX700]

Seems like compression cannot hold up with the internal sharpening. What if more than one person is in the frame? Who does it decide for?

[@JonhyPrieto]

very good video! One question: were you charging the Deon's battery between takes? Or did its 8 minutes of autonomy give you for all the shots? thank you!

[@saysoptimus9884]

Привет классная и не заменимая вещь,но я из России и я хочу hoverair x1pro или x1pro max Был бы благодарен если бы вы такую вещь прислали мне

[@dexterbelmain589]

Looks perfect for an amateur beginner like me. In fact, I just ordered one

[@Ascendington]

Pretty cool Brother... Thank You do much!! I will definitely get one of those. 🔥🔥🔥

[@gemiciozgur]

incredible product

[@CruisintheNarrowRoad]

Wonderful video. I have been using my Hoverair x1 for several months now and I love it. I am a Moto vlogger and this drone is perfect for taking with me on my bike to get great footage.

[@irubuview]

How's the battery life

[@CruisintheNarrowRoad]

@@irubuview good. It lasts about ten minutes per battery. It is more than enough to shoot enough clips for my videos. I have two batteries and the charger.

[@UNGRAKSMEYMrRAY]

That's really amazing! I wish to have one!

[@abdulmutalib9083]

That’s the deal ❤

[@SquareHelmet]

What's that wolf on the background at 6:44? Great video! I want the drone!

[@overlandtowater]

WOW!........as an outdoors/overland channel do you know will this follow an object such as a boat or 4x4 instead of a person?

[@conoceisrael]

the best yt channel

[@mcvandee]

Sir.. i have couple question.. 1. If I take a video in a crowd of people, does the hover still follow 1st person or does it change direction? 2. Since this drone doesn't use GPS, in some places that don't allow drone flights, is hovering still prohibited? Thank you for ur answer..

[@LauraTryUK]

Good questions!
