Camera drones are a massively popular branch of the drone industry. While some only want the ability to control a flying device, others more want to see what the drone sees. That is why camera quality, portability, and battery life are the most important features users look for. Travelers for example may want to take a drone with them while traveling. A heavy, bulky, or large drone may prove to be cumbersome to bring along the journey. A light, foldable drone would be the perfect combination if one wants to have a drone at their bags at all times.
A drone with those specifications may be the one for you.
Hover 2 Review
The Hover 2 drone has the capability of folding into a smaller travel version when not in use. This gives it a ton of portability, and with its lightweight build, it is definitely a good pick-up. The Hover 2’s folded state is about the size of a small book. It is perfect to fit in smaller bags, while also still easy enough to carry the entire time. It is very easy to hold because the rotors are encased in their own carbon fiber cages. This also ups the safety factor significantly, as the spinning rotors do not touch any direct surface when in use. For the camera, the Hover 2 offers amazing 4k resolution video recording. The 12-megapixel camera built into it can give any user the photograph they are looking for.
The Hover 2 is still in its infancy however, and you may have to wait a bit before you can see it in stores near you. For those interested, they have a Kickstarter all ready to accept any support from potential buyers.
The Good:
- Foldable design
- Safe flying due to rotor cages
- Portable, very light
- Can easily fit in most travel bags
- 12-megapixel camera
- 4k resolution
The Bad:
- Around 10 minutes of flight time
- Date of release expected to be April 2019
