Unmanned aerial vehicles and selfie shooting have become invariable attributes of a modern man. The American AirSelfie company decided to combine these two realities and created a compact AIR PIX selfie drone, which entered the Indiegogo crowdfunding platform and collected more than $ 1.5 million from almost 14 thousand users, who wished to abandon ridiculous selfie sticks.
The AIR PIX case is made of shockproof ABS plastic, and the entire device has a mass of only 52 grams, which allows to avoid registering UAVs by flight controllers. The compact dimensions of 102×85×13 mm allow to carry the AIR PIX in the jeans or shirt pockets.
The drone is propelled by four screws. It is equipped with the AIR PIX Wi-Fi module, a port for USB-C, a 12-megapixel camera for photo and video shooting, with 70-degree coverage and optical stabilization. The video is shot in Full HD resolution.
The drone is controlled via a smartphone in which a special application is installed, using gestures. 360-degree shooting is also provided by using automatic flight plans. The drone is stabilized by a built-in gyroscope capable of independently correcting the flight path.
The autonomy of the flight is provided by the battery, the charge of which is enough for 6 minutes of flight, and the flight range is limited to 30 meters. Currently, the first orders at Indiegogo began to be offered to customers at the price of $89.
