We raced this drone and couldn't drop it at over 40kmph – if you need a drone for cycling, this fits in your pocket and at this price, cannot be missed

The HoverAir X1 self-flying drone.

If you're a budding influencer or keen to capture more content with your mates, or out on the club run, the Hoverair Promax X1 drone is a no brainer. We love the HoverAir range here at Cycling Weekly and it fits into the best cycling jersey pockets easily, so it's always there and ready to go to get that perfect aerial, follow shot or even point of view.

Dolly Track settings mean it can fly backwards whilst still filming you, and follow me mode means even on descents you can record in wide angle at 8k, allowing infinite opportunity to crop into shots and create the best content you've ever made. It's also got extremely good collision avoidance, and as Jamie Williams, Cycling Weekly's video expert proved recently, when he tested it in Bormio in Italy it's also very quick.
