Zero Zero Robotics, the company known for the HoverAir X1 selfie drone, is stepping up again with a new lightweight drone designed for outdoor adventurers, especially those who love water sports. This upcoming drone is not only compact and under 249 grams, but it’s also fully waterproof and can withstand harsh wind conditions rated up to Level 7 wind resistance.
What makes this drone special is its ability to land and take off from water. It’s built with advanced waterproofing using nano-coating and titanium parts, making it suitable for lakes, oceans, or rainy environments. With its bright orange color, the drone remains visible against water and sky, reducing the risk of losing it during action.
Here’s a breakdown of the drone’s major features:
Feature | Details |
Waterproof Technology | Advanced nano-coating and titanium-reinforced design |
Take-off from Water | Neutral buoyancy allows safe water launches and landings |
Wind Resistance | Rated Level 7 – handles winds up to 33 knots |
Weight | Under 249 grams – registration not required in many regions |
Video Capture | Shoots 4K video at 100 fps with a 1/1.3” CMOS sensor |
Visibility | Bright orange body ensures high visibility over water or sky |
The drone is a clear rival to more popular models like those from DJI, especially with its edge in waterproofing and wind resistance. It’s built for people who enjoy kayaking, surfing, swimming, and other water-based activities. Once it’s powered on and tossed into the water, it can begin flying and recording within seconds.
With built-in tracking features and smart follow technology, it can record users automatically without needing a controller. It’s perfect for capturing action shots in difficult weather conditions, where most drones would fail or need extra protection.
Its portability, durability, and smart features also make it a favorite for travelers, families at the beach, and content creators who need high-quality video without the hassle of bulky gear or complicated setup.
Zero Zero Robotics hasn’t announced the official release date yet, but early teasers suggest that the drone is in final testing. Enthusiasts can expect more details and preorder options soon.
