HOVERAir X1 PROMAX 8K Action Flying Camera, Foldable Drone with Camera with 26Mph Follow Speed, 15+ Fully Automatic Flight Modes, Fly Anywhere with OmniTerrain, SmoothCapture 2.0(Cycling Combo)

Fantastic product and top quality. Had a small issue but the customer service was excellent and it was resolved very quickly. I am more than happy with this purchase. The drone itself is easy to set up a use, and the quality is fantastic. If you are doing simple drone work it’s perfect, especially the automatic follow features. I am using it for cycling, but have also used it for commercial work for short video clips to splice in.

I may have been unlucky but so far the Beacon cannot consistently connect and it took a day of updates via a cable on my PC to get an Iphone to connect. Almost two weeks since purchasing the updating of the software is erratic with different commands from Time Out to Cable Broken despite using official cable and following all instructions. So the drone is now working (after camera errors) and is as advertised but has been very difficult to get connectivity with Beacon to function. The support line is very responsive and I have no problem with the support provided but so far without a solution to have the Beacon consistently working.

Ho rotto il salvadanaio e mi sono fatto un regalone !!! Si, diciamo che la spesa non è proprio economica ma ne è valsa la pena. Il drone è divertente e intuitivo,ci vuole un po' di pratica per usarlo con il joystick ma piano piano si può fare. I voli programmati sono già molto belli e coprono una vasta gamma di situazioni. Finalmente un drone che mi segue in bici ! Ho provato in varie situazioni boschive fino all'estremo e purtroppo una era troppo estremo.... Infatti il drone è andato in collisione con un alberello, ma il danno c'è stato. A questo punto è entrato in gioco il supporto tecnico della Hover. Praticamente siamo stati in contatto giornalmente prima e dopo aver inviato il drone in assistenza (grazie Jane). Dopo circa una ventina di giorni il drone è ritornato come nuovo, sostituito un motore perché la botta è stata forte,ma tutto il resto è rimasto inalterato. Grazie al fatto che avevo acquistato anche la Hover care per due anni, il costo è stato di per sé irrisorio e le spese di invio e ricezione gratuite. Quindi consiglio di acquistare anche la Hover care. Posso dire che il drone comunque è un ottimo prodotto, divertente,versatile e comodo da trasportare. Il supporto tecnico impeccabile,sempre disponibile con informazioni, aggiornamenti e consigli,sono rimasto molto soddisfatto di questo perché ho trascorso il periodo di attesa molto più serenamente senza stress per rincorrere interlocutori che nn rispondono.... Pertanto do 5 stelle perché il supporto tecnico è ottimo, perché il drone merita di essere acquistato, perché.....non posso più farne a meno ;-)

Ich nutze die HoverAir X1 Pro Max seit einigen Wochen, vor allem für Urlaubsaufnahmen und kurze Selfie-Videos – und da spielt sie ihre Stärken voll aus! Die Drohne ist ultrakompakt, in wenigen Sekunden startklar und liefert beeindruckende Ergebnisse, ohne dass man viel einstellen muss. Ideal für spontane Aufnahmen an Sehenswürdigkeiten oder beim Spaziergang mit dem Hund. Besonders gefallen mir die automatischen Flugmodi, mit denen man coole Perspektiven ganz ohne Steuerung hinbekommt. Die Kameraqualität ist für die Größe echt klasse, und durch das geringe Gewicht kann man sie fast überall fliegen lassen, ohne gleich nervös beäugt zu werden. Aber: Der Cycling-Modus funktioniert bei mir leider nicht immer zuverlässig. Manchmal bricht der Flug ab oder startet erst gar nicht – schade, denn gerade der wäre für mich beim Fahrradfahren spannend gewesen. Auch die manuelle Steuerung über die App oder Fernbedienung ist (noch) nicht so intuitiv wie ich es von meiner DJI Mini 4 Pro gewohnt bin. Da fehlt mir manchmal die Präzision. Trotzdem: Für das, was sie sein will – eine smarte, kleine Selfie-Drohne für unterwegs – ist sie absolut empfehlenswert. Wer keine komplexen Flugmanöver plant, sondern einfache, schöne Aufnahmen möchte, wird hier viel Freude haben!

I have bought every single accessory for the HoverAir X1 Pro Max, opting for the cycling package rather than the skiing one. Given that I live in an equatorial climate, I didn’t need the thermal battery, but humidity is something I do have to deal with. Let me just say—I am very, very pleased with this product. Why I Chose the HoverAir X1 Pro Max For the longest time, I debated buying a drone but never pulled the trigger. There were just too many considerations: ✔ Weight & Regulations: I wanted something below 249g to avoid registration and licensing hassles. ✔ Photo & Video Quality: I wasn’t sold on the original HoverAir X1, but the Pro Max version finally delivered on image and video quality. ✔ Functionality Over Complexity: I don’t need full-blown drone capabilities—I prioritize selfie photos, videos, and a reliable follow mode while cycling. The X1 Pro Max ticks every box. Real-World Experience The Follow Me mode—both front and rear tracking—works brilliantly while riding my bike. It’s lightweight, quick to deploy, and doesn’t require the learning curve of traditional drones. Customer Service: A+ The real icing on the cake? I lost my beacon charging cable and was prepared to buy a replacement. Instead, HoverAir’s customer support responded within a day, asked for a few details, and promptly sent me a replacement—free of charge. That’s next-level service! A Couple of Wishes No product is perfect, and if I had two requests, they’d be: 1. Better Color Profile: The current footage is a bit too saturated—a firmware tweak could easily improve this. 2. A Proper Remote & Goggles: It would be amazing if HoverAir introduced a physical remote and perhaps an FPV goggle setup in the future. One can dream! Final Verdict If you’re looking for a compact, lightweight, hassle-free drone that delivers excellent selfie and follow-me capabilities, the HoverAir X1 Pro Max is a game-changer. I am beyond satisfied with my purchase and can’t wait to see how HoverAir improves future versions.

Update: The company sent me a new drone hassle free. I feel much better about them and there was a woman that walked me through all the steps! Thank you! As much as I LOVE this drone I will sadly have to leave this feedback. We used in for weeks and loved every second of it. The app is easy to use and the drone follows you and has so many cool features. I bought this drone because of the collision detection and I just retuned from Costa Rica and Mexico and was hoping for some stunning aerial shots. What ended up happening was we started our very first drone shot series and turned on the drone and set it to follow mode. It followed my wife down a dock that had small wooden poles sticking up from the sides, as dachshund peers usually do so that they can float or fall as the tide comes in or out. She was lightly jogging down this pier and with the drone filling and facing forward directly, slammed into one of these poles and dropped into the ocean. I immediately took it out and used distilled water to read, submerge it, and then took it out and had a fan on it for two days. It gave me hope because it would tell me the battery percentage of whatever battery I put in and then start to load the software, but it never completely finished loading and it didn’t work for the entire trip. So I thought that this company was reputable and would answer my questions or give me some kind of feedback regarding the warranty or some way to ship it to them to get fixed or whatever the case might be. I sent multiple emails from Mexico and Costa Rica with no reply. I got back to the states and called them. It goes straight to voicemail and you are asked to leave your information which I have and again they will not reach out to me. To add insult to injury, I was bragging up this drone so much that two of my friends even bought them and after hearing what happened, one of them returned his to Amazon within the return window. It’s too bad because I assumed it was a great product, but the way that this company has been treating me just trying to get some answers from them has been really unprofessional and unethical. I feel. So buyer beware!

I recently got this drone and I really enjoy it. I have a nine year-old son and we go out for a bike rides or he rides a scooter and he enjoys being chased around by the drone.
