PowerEgg X Drone: It Flies! It Floats! It Follows!

In this episode, the Roswell Flight Test Crew speaks with Chris Leigh of the PowerVision Robot Corporation at CES 2020 in Las Vegas. At the show, the company released a new drone: the PowerEgg X, which features a 4K/60 camera mounted on a three-axis gimbal. The drone can fly for 25 to 30 minutes on a fully charged battery and incorporates a forward-facing binocular collision-avoidance system. In addition, the drone can be equipped with a weatherproof shell and pontoons, allowing it to fly in the rain and land on water. The unit can also become an artificial intelligence enabled hand-held video camera that can also be tripod mounted, by removing the limbs quickly and without tools. The image recognition system can then be focused on a subject, which it will follow using the gimbal. The PowerEgg X also incorporates VoiceSync technology, allowing the user to record audio through their smart phone or earphones in real time, narrating the activities that they are capturing.

Always enjoyed your videos guys. Very cool quad. You know we DEMAND a review from you about this thing,right ? RIGHT ? :D

[@toddsymborski9698]

Got mine two weeks ago and loving it. Got lot of plans for using it as well, kayaking trips, bikepacking trips etc...

I kayak and would love to get footage floating in the marshes

Oh my gosh! You have got to do a flight review on this! You must get it ASAP so you can do it in the rain and snow in beautiful North West Oregon! You MUST be the first in the US to do a review! Take one of those floor models home if you have to! I'm serious! I need to get one. As you know, I'm down on the coast, Bandon actually. So we both have perfect places to try this thing out!
Oh man you have your work cut out for you! You still need to do reviews on the V-Copter, Skydio 2, the Autel Evo 2, the Evolve 2, The Whatever 2, the whatchamacallit 2 and this Egg 2 (PowerEgg X).... Get to to it! I'm going to bed! Haha!

*Bandon isn't half a wet as it is up here in Portland, Oregon.*

[@Canyon76]

@@HardlineFeminists Agreed.... Although.... When we get rain it comes in monsoons and floods everything in 6 hours like it is right now, then it's sunny and windy until the next storm blows through..... But yes, Portland is much wetter. I went to school there.

wow! amazing drone pretty much just trumped all the competition. Flight time👍👍

[@thetrucker6889]

And then DJI dropped the MA2 and smashed it

[@michaelbaxes4966]

This drone looks pretty cool. An extra $350 though for just a plastic casing, 2 pontoons, and ONE battery. Seems a bit high. Add another battery, or a nice hardshell case, and you have my order.

[@51ghostrecon]

I want 6 of these...

[@messagesent]

Can you fly a drone to a place land shutdown then takeoff again?

[@vinhha6073]

I’m in Oregon , I need this egg

[@frederickdrake1782]

With the ID faa proposal do you know if it has the id software and WiFi components to satisfy the faa

[@Canyon76]

I am 99% certain this and any other new drone shown at CES does NOT have any Remote ID capability. It will be 3 years minimum before it is a requirement assuming the new proposed rules become law.

[@Didjeridoolove]

Nope
