Sofar I am really enjoying using this little drone, it is just so simple to use and can capture unique angles, something that I could never do before.
For me this is a very useful addition to my filming equipment.

What an awesome piece of film making kit.
Nice 😊
Good honest review Sandy. I watched another review and I thought they said it did have obstacle avoidance but maybe it just gave the impression of that. I agree the tech is off the scale these days. A bit scary! For me as just a home movie maker, it's too rich in price but if I had an active channel like yours, I would save my pennies for one for sure.
Many thanks for review..a great performing little drone with superb quality footage..even I could understand how to use it lol..Best wishes
Thats a marvelous drone Sandy , i think it will be very handy for some filming . How does the drone know to follow you , you must carry a homing device with you so it knows where you are otherwise someone else walks past and the drone may follow them . Great review Sandy 🙂
Absolutely incredible technology , christ !. Too much for my little brain though . Nice video again Sandy.
What a great camera 👍🏼
Thanks for the review. I bought a drone but then used it very little. I'll try to use it more before I consider shelling out £400 on something different.
Would you spend your own cash buying one of you didn't get it in exchange for your labour in doing this excellent review? (I think Hover Air got a real bargain!)
Waiting for mine to arrive.
Amazing bit of kit, thanks for showing it. My mind is suitably boggled.
I was wondering if drones could be used like a tripod the other day on @wheretonowlilu where she'd showed all the behind the scenes stuff, and along you came with this 🙌
It makes perfect sense, and they've caught the major drone manufacturers napping with the pre-programmed features – I'm sure they'll catch up.
It did well for having no collision avoidance.
The noise is an issue – I'm really interested in how your dogs behaved, when they first heard it ?
Nice bit of kit.
Sounds funny when it lands in the bushes 🙂
Absolutely brilliant! Thank you for sharing this Sandy 👍🏻👍🏻😎
Clever little thing 👍👌
An awesome new YouTuber tool! And only 375 quid, use it once and by a new one!
It’s bloomin clever isn’t it.
How about putting some reflective 3M tape on the outer edges and top and bottom. Then if it does crash, with a torch, you might find it quicker.
I like the protected blades, as I’ve seen a few YTers drones with broken blades when they hit trees and break the expensive blades.
What’s the difference between Dolly track and hover?
Interesting this Sandy . Very nicely demonstrated and can only see this could really help guys like yourself creating your superb vlogs.
Blimey that is a fantastic thing -I am in complete envy !
Looks like a great little drone Sandy,
They evolving so fast and getting better and better
Hi Sandy. You could use some reflective or bright coloured sticky tape to make it more visible, if downed.
i had a look at the new himalayan and watched a few reviews especially the itchy boots one as she ridden your model quite a bit too, id say you should upgrade if you can afford too, will come with warranty etc and it seems to be a much better bike but still has the character of the old bike, you only live once and id prefer to see that on the channel than a vstrom upgrade as i think the himalyan suits you much more, that 40hp will come in handy when you need to overtake or use the motorways plus the suspension is much better with higher clearance and it looks great
Fantastic bit of kit, the technology in such a small thing is staggering. I’ve used the tracking function on my mini 3 in the past, but the simplicity of this thing is very attractive.
Hi Sandy. What a great review, I’m sure the company will be very pleased👍. You demonstrated how basically anyone can use this drone. Lovely to see you walking the “girls”. I watched your Hot Tent camping video before this one and thought what excellent drone footage you had not knowing that you had a new toy.😄. Take care, hugs for your doggies, pat on the back for you lol 💕💕. Judy🇨🇦
Looks a very useful camera Sandy. Thank you for the demonstration. Stay Safe.
Hi Sandy. I had seen this gizmo a while and as really interested in your review. Just for personal use, I think it looks ideal for me. Your review has settled it, so I have ordered one. Hoverair were sensible to send you one, for 👍!
A great video, thanks. I've actually bought one for myself, but haven't had the opportunity to try it out yet, so your educational will certainly make the first flight much less of a hassle. Cheers 👋
How brilliant is that!
Very nice Sandy!
Totally would be something for me for free, but even for 200quid I think it would be steep. It is much less capable than a dji mini and the same price. I get it's alot quicker and easier for immediate shots. But that's not much and the basic package doesn't come with an extra battery so just device with one small life battery for 300 quid is a rip off sadly in my opinion.
Now that looks like something even I could operate. Nice vid and excellent demo – thank you.
Cool little gadget! I think my dogs would go drone hunting though!
