Pull it out, expand it, press the power button, use the left and right buttons to select your favorite selfie video style, turn the drone towards your outstretched palm, click the power button again, then remove the power, capture the lens you selected, and return to land, return to your palm, ready to drop it again.

The entire process takes only 30 seconds and offers an impressive difference from anyone who wants to improve its “content”. If you happen to be in a picturesque place and want to know yourself from an interesting perspective, or want a camera that operates remotely along the coastal road on your bike, the X1 Promax handles the job with minimal worries. It can automatically follow the theme at speeds up to 26 mph, and in my tests, whether it’s walking or cycling, it’s like glue.

Video and photos can be quickly transferred to your smartphone using the Wi-Fi 6 and X1 Hover app, which allows adjusting settings, updating firmware, and manually flying the drone through on-screen controls.
