Zero Zero Robotics announced the launch of HOVERAir AQUA, the world's first fully waterproof, self-flying camera engineered for life on water. Built for creators, athletes, and innovators, AQUA represents a category-defining leap in aerial imaging: no remote, no piloting, no compromise. Whether stand-up paddling, kayaking, wakeboarding, jetskiing, fishing, or boating, HOVERAir AQUA captures stunning third-person shots - hands-free and hassle-free. AQUA will be available globally on Indiegogo starting at $999 (early bird price) on August 21, 2025, at 9 AM PST.
Say goodbye to static POVs and manual drones. AQUA redefines content creation with AI-powered tracking, waterproof design, and palm-sized portability - all hands-free, all on water. Building on the success of PROMAX, the world's No. 1 self-flying camera, Zero Zero Robotics expanded its portfolio from skiing and biking into water sports. AQUA goes further with faster flight speed, longer flight time, real-time video, and IP-67 water resistance paired with neutral buoyancy. It follows users automatically over and around the water, delivering smooth, breathtaking shots from entirely new angles and opening the door for water-sport lovers everywhere. It floats. It follows. It films - anywhere on water.
Equipped with a 4K/100 fps slow-motion camera, a 1/1.28" CMOS sensor, and a hydrophobic lens, AQUA ensures stunning image quality. With more than 15 automated flight modes such as snorkel mode and gimbal mode, as well as Level 7 wind resistance up to 33 knots, a lightweight design under 249g requiring no FAA registration, 23 minutes of flight time, and a maximum tracking speed of 55 km/h (34 mph), HOVERAir AQUA is ready to capture every adventure, hands-free and from entirely new perspectives.
HOVERAir AQUA also introduces a powerful new accessory: the Lighthouse. Worn on the user's arm, the Lighthouse allows full control of AQUA, including takeoff, landing, recording, mode selection, and remote recall. Lighthouse's Virtual Tether detects when HOVERAir AQUA moves beyond a pre-set distance, prompting it to automatically return to the user. Another standout feature is AQUA’s integrated 1.6" AMOLED display. This high-quality screen allows users to enjoy a live preview while in handheld or snorkel mode and conveniently review captured footage on the spot, all without the need to connect to a mobile device.
"HOVERAir AQUA is an important continuation of our HOVERAir line. We continue pushing the boundaries of technology and reimagining what the flying camera can be. We want users to enjoy the freedom and fun of recording their lives and favorite activities," said MQ Wang, CEO of Zero Zero Robotics.
Launching globally on August 21, 2025 via Indiegogo, AQUA is designed for water-sports enthusiasts, adventurers, creators, and families alike. With signature hands-free tracking, top-tier stability, and the new Lighthouse accessory for effortless control, AQUA is the perfect companion for anyone eager to capture their adventures from a completely fresh perspective.
