Playing in Purisima (First Video with Hover Camera Drone)

Took my new Hover Camera out for a spin to try the drone auto-follow capability. This thing is going to be a lot of fun!

 

I'll give it a few more test drives and write up a review in the next few weeks. With GoPro recalling their Karma drone today (after 16 days of selling), and the DJI Mavic having so many production issues that pre-order customers won't see it until January, 2017, the Hover may be one of the only consumer auto-follow drones available this holiday season.

Want me to check something in particular? Leave a comment and let me know.

Thanks, SD

  1. Really neat to watch how it follows you around

  2. That's so cool! I recently got into a little bit of trail running (the constant high impact of the pavement was killing my back) so I might have to look into getting one of these. Thanks for sharing!

    Also, I'd love to touch base with you about an initiative for National Running Safety Month. Give me a shout when you get a chance!

    Thanks,

  4. Not to be a downer.... but I'd be really cranky to be out enjoying a run in one of our OSP's and encounter a drone. Was buzzed by one while rock climbing in Pinnacles last year. Didn't appreciate it. I would just say, please be considerate about using it.
