HoverAir has unveiled Versa, a groundbreaking 2-in-1 pocket gimbal camera and drone, marking the first of its kind in the market. Priced at $499, Versa can transform from a drone into a DJI Pocket-like gimbal camera, offering a unique combination of drone and camera capabilities. The FCC-approved device is set to launch on Indiegogo and debut at IFA in Berlin.

Versa boasts impressive specs, including 4K video recording up to 60fps, 4K HDR at 30fps, 12MP photos, AI subject tracking, auto framing, a 14-minute flight time, and a maximum speed of 36km/h. With a weight of 230g, it falls under the beginner drone category and features a DJI Pocket-like OLED screen. While Versa may be pricier than DJI's offerings, its innovative design and features set it apart in the competitive drone market.
