We had stuff to do today, but late this afternoon, I got out on my e-bike and shot some more clips with the new Hover Air X1 drone. I used my Apple AirPods Pro to record the voice, and the latency with those wireless earbuds made it so the voice and lips don't match up. I'll try a wired mic on the next test.
But, in the meantime, here's a look at what this little drone can do on its own...

Jim, thanks for the nice review of the Hover X1, I've been looking for something small to go along with my wildlife videography/photography.
I've enjoyed the Black Hills blogs you've done this summer, sounds like maybe no more Hart Ranch for you and the wife? My brother in-law and his wife have a horse ranch near Piedmont so we get out there at least 5-6 times a year.
Good luck with the move to AZ, it's awesome you have such a great relationship with your kids to live that close. We live less than a block from our son and daughter here in Sioux Falls and we love it.
Have a great week and safe move.
Bob
Hi Bob. Thanks for the kind words. The Hover X1 is more of a "flying selfie camera" than a typical drone. The best thing about it is the ease of use.. the learning curve is not steep.
Joan and I are thinking there will be places out west that we want to visit - if we don't go back to Hart Ranch next summer, that isn't a "never going back" situation. We've had our membership there since the early 90s, and there have been periods of time we haven't used it. I have thoroughly enjoyed our time there the last 5 summers... well, except for the hail storms.
This move to Arizona is major to us. We really enjoy spending time with our daughter and son-in-law, so all 4 of us had to be onboard to commit to this NextGen home situation. That's a lot of *close* with two couples who have been used to not having family nearby. We're ready.
Thanks for the comments,
Jim
