Zero Zero Robotics, the makers of the HoverAir drone line, are suddenly more with water than with air. The upcoming Hoverair -Aqua of 1,000 US dollars -what is currently currently Crowdfunding on Indiegogo– Perhaps the first drone for Atlantees or anyone who spends their free time with open waters. The only main disadvantage will hinder your entire flight times and you will remind you of your primary school lessons why electricity and water do not mix.
Welcome to drone life in the water. Now I know what you are probably surprised, and unfortunately this drone is not a diving gas. Instead, the Hoverair Aqua has the ability to withdraw from the water. It is light enough to ride the waves and powerful enough to start the surf. It is even better that the device automatically turns the right way up if it suddenly corrects before the start. The drone is evaluated with IP67, which means that it is protected for short parts to completely immerse yourself in water. The train -like ring around the drone should keep it upright and briskly and largely keep the sensitive electronics dry.
Since users are likely to be occupied while trying to take up aerial photographs, the Aqua should serve as a kind of “hands -free”. This does not mean that there are no controls at all. Users can set the drone so that they follow them while they are lined up or divided into the water. This “virtual connection” is said to keep the drone in the shooting distance. The maximum flight speed is 34 miles per hour, which means that people who make the fastest extreme water sports, like those on a jet ski, may have to slow down to make the drone their thing.
The KIT contains a small 1.6-inch amoled display that offers a live preview of the film material. The other controls are provided via the “lighthouse”, a controller on the arm for lifting, land or with the absorption of film material. There is an additional remote recall, although the drone should follow the user if it is too far away. Otherwise, the drone 16 automated flight patterns, including a “snorkel” mode for catching stray fishing directly below the water surface. You can also set up some preset orbital recordings, similar to others Ultra light drones Like the Hoverair X1 or Ultra-Breep Dji neo.

The camera itself is able to photograph up to 100 fps in 4K resolution, which should enable a certain long-term material. The device uses a wide 1/1.28-inch CMOS sensor. Hoverair claimed that the lens was hydrophobic, which should help to ward off all additional water droplets while the device rocked in the surf.
The device weighs only £ 249 or £ 0.54, which is subject to the weight requirements of the FAA for the registration of unmanned aircraft. This small frame is brought low by only one battery life of 23 minutes. This means that you have to be aware of how much surfing you will do before calling up your drone and exchanging the battery. The founder of Zero Zero Mq Wang said reporters that the batteries all have their own waterproof bag. The drone designers have designed the battery compartment as hydrophobic and contained a water-sensitive sticker that becomes red when the subject is wet. Nevertheless, you still have to be careful when you push a new live battery into something that only sprayed around like a teenager at the deep end of the pool.
The limited battery life matches all small drones. Nevertheless, it makes the water -based operation better restricted. The limited use time may require that users fishing according to their devices if they have to carry out an emergency spray. As always, we never recommend choosing a crowdfunding campaign, although Hoverair has a strong track record to track down his products. We will spray around at the IFA Tech conference in Berlin in Berlin next month.
