What's in the box

FAQ

How do I charge the Beacon?

The beacon can be charged using the cable included in the package. You can also connect it to the joystick and charge both together via the USB Type-C port on the joystick.

How long does it take to charge?

The Beacon has an input power of 5W and takes about 60-90 minutes to fully charge. The JoyStick takes around 75 minutes to charge. When charging the Beacon & JoyStick together as a bundle, it takes approximately 2.5 to 3 hours. For faster charging, it's recommended to charge them separately.

How long does it last?

A fully charged Beacon (when connected to the device without JoySticks) lasts about 120 minutes.When using the Beacon with JoyStick A or multiple JoySticks, battery life extends to about 150 minutes. However, if used with a smartphone display, the battery life may be reduced to around 60 minutes.

What kind of signals are used between the Beacon and the flying camera?

The signal between the Beacon and the flying camera uses regular-band and narrow-band Wi-Fi, allowing for a 1km live transmission distance.

When using the Beacon +JoyStick remote control, the maximum flight range is 1 km. But how can I know how far they've flown? Is there a distance display?

Currently, there is no distance display, but we plan to add this feature in the future. If the drone exceeds the range, the video feed will start to lag.

Why does the update process get stuck at 100% during installation, causing the OTA update to fail?

For detailed solutions, please click the link and refer to the specific guidance on resolving the issue when stuck at 100%.

What features of Beacon are currently compatible with the HOVERAir X1?

"A: The following features are currently supported on the HOVERAir X1:

Are the recorded audio and video files automatically merged, or do they require manual processing?

Yes, they are automatically merged. No manual processing is needed—simply download the file with one click via the app.

Where does the flying camera return to when using the Return to Home function?

  • In Follow Mode: The device will return to a location near the Beacon with a positioning accuracy range of 2 to 10 meters. Users will need to manually land it or allow the Beacon to take control.
  • In non-follow automatic modes: By default, HOVERAir will automatically return to the takeoff point.

Did not get the joy stick in my order

I’m sure the unit is fun and I was so excited to get it. Unfortunately the only thing in the box was the beacon and not the joy stick. I have msg them and hope they rectify the mistake in the order packing.

Beacon & Joystick - must have for aerial photography

Gives a full controller to the Hoverair X1 Pro and Promax. Ideal for smooth aerial footage like a classic drone, with decent range.

This is a truly innovative product!

I purchased it as soon as it was available, and it works perfectly with my PROMAX. The Beacon is compact and portable, unlike my previous DJI remote controller that took up so much space. The Tri-state feature is very creative, and every time I use it, people ask me what it is. I'm looking forward to more functional optimizations!
