HOVERAir AQUA – World’s First 100% Waterproof Self-Flying Camera | Story 1 of the AQUA Series

MQ Wang, founder and creator of HOVERAir, has long been passionate about capturing life’s greatest moments—but he faced a familiar frustration: filming often meant missing out on truly living those moments. As he says, “When you’re behind the camera, you miss out on fully living the moment. That challenge inspired me to rethink how a camera could let you be part of your own story.”


This personal challenge drove Zero Zero Robotics to innovate, from our early travel-friendly X1 for hiking and camping to the fast, action-sport-ready PRO and PROMAX designed for biking and skiing. User feedback constantly pushed us to expand where and how our cameras can capture life.


Throughout the history of HOVERAir products, one request stood out:  users wanted to take self-flying cameras to the water. Waterproofing drones has been a long-standing challenge, but committed to our users’ creative freedom, we embraced it.


The result is HOVERAir AQUA, the world’s first fully waterproof self-flying camera. More than technology, AQUA is a product of listening closely to our users—letting them capture precious moments anywhere, without compromise.


Launching globally on Indiegogo, August 21, 2025, AQUA effortlessly films cinematic third-person shots while kayaking, paddleboarding, wakeboarding, fishing, or simply enjoying the water. It floats, follows, and films—thanks to its IP67 waterproof and buoyant design that lets users focus fully on their adventures.

Key highlights include:


  • Waterproof & Buoyant Design – IP67 rated.
  • AI-Powered Tracking – Hands-free third-person filming, no piloting required.
  • 4K/100fps Camera with 1/1.28” CMOS sensor and hydrophobic lens.
  • 23-Minute Flight Time
  • Speeds up to 55 km/h (34 mph) and Level 7 wind resistance (33 knots).
  • 15+ Smart Flight Modes such as Snorkel mode and Mount mode.
  • Lighthouse Accessory – A wearable controller for takeoff, landing, mode switching, and recall with a VirtualTether.
  • 1.6” AMOLED Display for live preview and instant playback—no phone needed.
  • Lightweight at under 249g, AQUA requires no FAA registration and is C0 certified in the EU.

We encourage you to watch our founder MQ Wang share his vision and introduce AQUA in his own words. See how this groundbreaking product redefines freedom and creativity on the water.


The HOVERAir AQUA launches on Indiegogo at 9 AM PDT, August 21, 2025, with early bird pricing starting at $999 USD. Be among the first to experience the world’s first 100% waterproof self-flying camera.
