oh crap huh rook I wonder if these things were ever scared of humans they must have been at one point in time because that looks like easy lunch to me then so you guys know drones are the new hot thing right I showed you a few of them recently well I've got another one today from a company called zero tech they hit me up they said we've seen all those other drone videos but we think we've got the coolest so please allow us to send it out I said alright let's do it so what is this all about it's called the DA being Dobby Dobby or doobie it's called the Dobby Dobby and probably the first thing that you can tell is just how tiny it is look at this box smaller than one of my hands and that's the box and it doesn't even look like a drone at first sight because this one has foldable propellers they go inside of it and technically this thing is actually pocketable technically actually box is fairly simple opening it up look at this little guy that's a drone we're living in the future it's got a camera on it so this is actually gonna give you aerial footage the propellers are kind of hidden here folded in it's got sensors on the bottom battery pack in this location micro USB port power switch on the top here so these little guys fold out click into place look at this oh my goodness haha you got yourself a little baby drone how cool the little charger is that little guy slides on there pops out surprisingly USBC as well and a power brick to go with it ok so the question is is this thing actually pocketable did I ever think that there'd be a moment where I'd be walking around with the drone casually in my pocket holy smokes there's an app for it fly it around record video and so on it works on iOS and Android I actually have the Android app powered up oh hello there all right it's given me a little demo here so you can see the way you fly so forward back side to side and then elevation by tapping the screen okay I get it here you can see the app looks kind of like a camera app this is what the drone itself is seeing takeoff the ability to record video over here take stills I'm going to switch to video mode what do you guys say do we do we do a little takeoff here so as you can tell the the dobby drone it's small right it fits in your pocket as I suggested before but it also has some attributes that are more similar to larger drones I took it outside it was stable the wind didn't mess with it it's actually pretty quick it feels like some of those larger more expensive drones but in a in a much smaller package now from a video perspective it does shoot in 4k resolution now there is an absence of a gimbal so the cameras right on the front so it's relying on the stabilization of the unit itself I even set this thing up how high did I have it was it let's see how high up we go I think was around 17 meters up it didn't try to stop me from trying that height so didn't seem to have an issue at all so it does have an indoor and outdoor mode and this adjusts the characteristics of the device now I actually preferred flying it with a kind of traditional thumb stick layout as you can see here now this little drone also has target tracking and face tracking and an orbit mode so if you're into choreographing those types of shots it does have that capability alright so who is this little guy for I don't know I think somebody looking to get started in the drone universe but looking for something a little bit more intelligent which has an all-in-one package 4k video quality get you up and running you can fly it indoors it's small enough for that or outdoors if you want to get a bit more adventurous and it folds up into a package that can fit in your pocket when this thing is folded down it's hard to even tell what it is plus it's not as expensive as some of the other stuff out there so if you want to get to experimenting this might be the way to go
