Summer is finally here! Roger Moore is joined by guest Dre for an impromptu, two-part episode of Tech Xtra to unbox, set up, and real-world test the brand-new DJI Lito X1 (XD Version). About This Video: In this episode, the guys move away from heavy cinematic rigs to test the ultimate "consumable creative" tool for tracking fitness, health, and summer adventures. Dre takes on the role of head drone operator as they unbox the Fly More combo, struggle with the initial DJI Flight app activation, and review the footage after putting the drone through its paces. From tracking a local running club in Birmingham to overhead 4K shots at football training and a family birthday barbecue, they break down exactly how this compact drone performs. Key Features Discussed: The XD Advantage: Why they chose the premium XD version for its superior sensor and smooth 60fps capabilities. Intelligent Tracking: How the drone automatically switches positions from behind to in front of you if another player gets too close. Obstacle Avoidance: Testing the safety features in busy city environments vs. open fields. The Real Verdict: A solid 9/10 rating from Dre, plus warnings about the digital zoom quality drop and why you should never turn on Sports Mode in the middle of Birmingham City!
