    Thanks for the honest work Ken. The marketing company reached out to me a couple months ago to do a paid “review” of this thing. They made it clear that I was not to disclose in the video that it was a sponsored video. I declined and told them they what they are doing is not legal or ethical. Lots of CZcams channels did go ahead make sponsored videos which makes me question their ethics.

    I bought this drone for a little under $350, and it came with 2 batteries and a charger. I'm impressed with what it offers. If you're a content creator, real estate photographer, or involved in street interviews and news stories, the voice-over capabilities are a game changer. However, it's not suitable for professional movie-making, unless it's for b-roll footage. If you're a mountain biker, travel journalist, or someone who wants different options, it's awesome. But if you're a dedicated drone enthusiast, you may find that this drone has some limitations. However, there is a large market for those in other fields. Each battery gives me about 10 minutes of flight time, but I haven't tested it in high winds or extreme temperatures, so those conditions may reduce the flight times. I'm a police officer and I not a paid endorser.😁

    Yeah, I got one a while ago. Got a price reduction on it, but for what it does, small size, and available settings, it’s turned out to be not bad. It does lots without much setup, so I just write off the cost with what it does, fits in a pocket, follows me around the house and the block, so turns out worth it. Thanks for the post.

    Its definitely worth 300 dollars. I had to pay 500 euro for shipping it to the Netherlands. But i made 4k earnings with it only during my first month of use. I gave it to some clients to film them during their projects and they loved it. The quality is decent, especially after upscaling it to 4k with some pro ai tools. For people who just want to track themself or for making b-rol and easy shares on social media its quite useful imho.

    I just bought one of these to film myself practising jibbing on my bike. I've heard the X1 called a "toy" a few time but honestly what "non-toy" could you buy if you just want a tool to film yourself at low height?
    It seems like most "professional" drones are actually used by people that enjoy flying them. That's not a knock, it seems like a pretty good hobby if that's what you're into. I just don't want to be planning shots or marking out waypoints, I just want to ride my bike better.
    The image quality might be better on a DJI but that doesn't matter to me, I'll just delete it later anyway and no one else will ever see it.
    ps You're dead on about the marking BS, thanks for standing up to it.

    Pretty sure it is based off the Bitcraze AI-deck or at least the GAP8 IOT processor from GreenWaves Technologies. Totally worth the cost. Love mine. You need to think about how much you are going to use it though. Be aware, the hinges are somewhat fragile. Mine broke when it hit a fence while following one of the neighborhood kids. It still operates with no issues even with a broken hinge. Not user repairable. Tried to get it fixed using Amazon's Asurion 'Protection Plan'. No joy. Love the aircraft, Asurion no so much... Too bad about the companies ethics. No reason for them to hide. Nice product.

    Well up here in Canada its $649! So beat that!
    They had a price drop of $100 plus i had a $38 Amazon coupon so i got one... yep expensive....but for me, it's simply a flying camera and fits a niche that I'm ok with. Sometimes you just want a quick photo from the sky without having to go through all the setup of other drones and this one is up in the air in 30secs....any DJI takes you a good 10mins to get it up and ready. I have three DJI drones of various sizes and im actually taking this Hover with me everyday just in case i want a quick shot of something from the sky. When i have time and do serious flight, then the DJIs come out. But again, is just a flying camera and its great and anyone can use it without training, without practice. Quality is good enough. No one notices what camera you used on social media with all the down sizing anyway so who cares?

    Very good review/experience take and fair. I agree the price is little high and I think the sweet spot is $275 for the kit. That being said I got two one for the wife who is a complete drone noob and one for me during the kickstarter campaign and I will admit it is a fantastic little selfie drone that is quickly available for that group shot (no more missing person holding the camera/phone) and zoom outs for cool little travel locales, which we use a lot.
    The wife actually using it is testament to it's automation and the company has regularly been providing updates to the features of both the drone and app, it's almost hard to believe in some ways that this is the same company as the Hover2 and Falcon, both products no longer supported and both with their baggage of bad history albeit both novel designs. Image quality is good and its tracking performance is very good imo. In regards to wind it handled Newport beach (pretty windy) really well and as usual didn't fail in landing in my hand. I wish the company would come out with a gimbal protector or some third party would 3d print hint hint, as I'm reluctant to throw it in my pocket cause of that.

    I trust they have by now appreciated your review. For one thing they are now known to many more people, and secondly they can consider the applications that are possible as you expressed them. I like the second camera man application particular. Its limitations in some sense may be its strength for specific uses, and you reveal those possibilities better than any 'talking head'. As always it was doBo-mized. (I don't know, I just make up crap).

    DJI Mini 2 SE (Refurb) 2/remote control...direct from DJI with all the warranty etc. is currently in stock and costs $225. 31 minute flight time. This Zero Zero would NEVER be a consideration for me, however, maybe they can jump on the DJI ban and use the opportunity to invent something with 1/4th the features and 2X the price, and someone will rush out to buy it. Just my thinking. Thanks for the review. 6-minute flight time, no SD card support, looks like a flying TV remote, no GPS, no flying over trees (40 ft +), extremely noisy, extreme limited use case..if you can find one.
