A pocket-size flying camera that's lighter than a phone. Unfold it, pick a mode and launch it from your palm in 3 seconds. X1 frames, follows and orbits you on its own, capturing 2.7K HDR video and 12 MP photos on a stabilized camera. No controller and no flying skills, and at 125 g no FAA registration for recreational flying. This Combo adds an extra battery, the Charging Hub and a storage bag.
Pick a flight mode, press one button and let it go from your palm. X1 flies itself, so you can be in the shot instead of behind the camera.

One click and it's airborne. Easy enough for anyone in the family.
Hover, Follow, Side Track, Dolly Track, Zoom Out, Bird's Eye, Orbit, Snapshot, Smart Control and Manual.
Everything starts from the camera's own buttons. The app adds settings and manual flying.
Guarded all around, so it's safe to launch and catch by hand.
The modes most people use every day. Select one, press go, and X1 does the rest.
Frames you from a fixed spot. Perfect for hands-free selfies and group photos.
Follows you from the front or back while computer vision keeps you centered.
Circles you steadily. Great for a new car, a campsite or the new puppy.
Pull back to reveal the whole party, or look straight down for a one-click overhead shot.
A hybrid stabilization system pairs a mechanical pitch gimbal with electronic stabilization, so hikes, walks and fast moments come out smooth.
Folds smaller than a phone, and the HOVERAir app pulls your clips straight off the camera.

Lighter than an iPhone and under the 250 g line, so there's no FAA registration for recreational flying. Folds flat into a pocket or bag.

Set flight height and distance, vertical shooting and resolution, then download wirelessly and share. 32 GB built in.
This Combo includes a second battery and the Charging Hub, so one charges while the other flies.
About 20 intelligent shots back to back.
Two batteries for about 22 minutes of flying.
Included. A full battery in about 35 minutes.
Or charge inside X1 in about 55 minutes.
Room for a weekend of clips, downloaded over Wi-Fi.
