Capture From Every Angle
Whether it’s high-action trail footage or awe-inspiring content for your social channels, the HOVERAir X1 is ready to capture your best moments. The X1 pairs a custom imaging system with autonomous flight, anchored by a capable camera. The X1 launches from your palm, tracks at speeds up to 15 mph with AI-driven precision, and returns to your hand when the shot is done. SmoothCapture 1.0 stabilization combines a free-floating 1-axis gimbal with electronic image stabilization, while 1080p/120-fps slow motion turns standout moments into dramatic highlights. You’ll get 11.5 minutes of flight time per battery and a generous 32GB of internal storage, ensuring ample capacity for your next session. Intuitive, foldable, and built from aerospace-grade HEM, the 125-gram X1 is a compact drone ready for professional capture in any environment.

Intuitive hands-free content
The X1’s camera captures vibrant, realistic details in nearly any environment. You can shoot in 2.7K/30 fps with an option for 1080p/120-fps slow motion for extra smoothness and vertical capture. A palm launch sends the X1 into the air, and a 90-degree wide-angle lens captures everything. Choose from automated flight modes that handle everything from steady follows to tight tracking in challenging environments. The HOVERAir app expands those options via your phone, while SmoothCapture 1.0 stabilization keeps the camera steady through a 1-axis mechanical gimbal paired with electronic image stabilization.
Built to keep up
The X1 is built to survive even the bumpiest landings. The custom aerodynamic frame is made from aerospace-grade HEM (Highly Elastic Material), engineered to take a hit and keep going, and also meets the demands of high-speed flight. It’s a good thing, too, as the drone’s powerful motor delivers 15 mph follow speeds and Level 4 wind resistance. An ever-growing accessory lineup extends the X1’s capabilities, with options ranging from on-the-go charging cases and ND filter sets to dedicated travel cases and even controllers for even more dynamic operation.
