HoverAir Versa FlyEssential Combo

HoverAir Versa FlyEssential Combo

The HoverAir Versa FlyEssential Combo is a pocket gimbal camera with a detachable Flight Kit and the accessories to film and fly for longer. Besides the Versa Pocket and the Flight Kit, you get a second battery, the Charging Hub, the Multi-functional Tripod and a Gimbal Protector. The Versa switches from handheld shots to aerial footage in a few seconds, which helps when you film on your own.

Camera and image quality

The 1/1.3-inch sensor records 4K at 60 fps, 4K at 30 fps with HDR and 1080p at 120 fps for slow motion. HoverAir specifies a dynamic range of 17.5 stops. 10-bit HDR gives you room to correct colours afterwards. The 3-axis gimbal rotates for true vertical 4K shots, both handheld and in flight. Photos are taken at 12 megapixels.

Flying with the Flight Kit

The MagLatch system lets you click the Flight Kit onto the camera in a few seconds. The Versa takes off from your palm and follows you at speeds of up to 36 km/h. You can choose from more than ten smart flight modes, such as Follow, Orbit, Dolly Zoom and Bird's Eye. The propellers are fully enclosed by guards and the frame folds. You control the Versa with hand gestures, the Hover app, the separately available MiCo controller or manually with the Beacon & JoySticks. In flying mode it weighs 230 grams. Check with the competent authority in your country which rules apply to your flight.

Two batteries and the Charging Hub

One battery gives up to 14 minutes of flight or up to 180 minutes of handheld filming, measured under test conditions. With the second battery, you swap after a flight and carry on straight away. The Charging Hub charges both batteries in about 60 minutes with a USB-C PD charger of 65 watts or more (not included). The tripod lets you set the Versa down for static shots. Footage is stored on 64 GB of internal memory or a microSD card of up to 1 TB.
