Over the last decade and a half, I’ve tested almost every autonomous follow-me drone made in the market. During that time period we’ve seen many newcomers attempt to break into the market, albeit, less these days as DJI’s dominance has increased. Of course, their dominance is for good reason: They generally make some of the best drones out there. But when it comes to follow-me type features, while DJI has had the best image quality and other drone features, they haven’t always had the best follow-me technology. That award was Skydio for years, before they got out of the consumer business. One key feature of Skydio and other sports-focused drones (AirDog, Staalker, etc…) is that they don’t require you have a remote controller open, whereas DJI does.Thus enter, the tiny little Hyper X1.This unit aims to bridge that gap by essentially creating drone the size and weight of a small paperback book, but with an autonomous follow-me mode that requires no controller or phone app be open. Just tap a button, and go off and run.
