Adding to these innovations, the HOVERAir Beacon enhances control and precision for the series.

It activates HoverLink™ for precise tracking with up to a 1 km transmission range, while the 1.78″ OLED display allows real-time footage monitoring. Equipped with AI-powered noise cancellation, the Beacon sets a new standard for audio and video recording during aerial shoots.

“We’re excited to bring the HOVERAir X1 series and Beacon to CES 2025, where we’re redefining how motion is captured, tracked, and controlled,” continued Wang. “These tools empower creators and adventurers to document their journeys with breathtaking precision and ease.”
