Introduction
We have tailored this autonomous follow drone to capture all your activities, moments and
beautiful places in the best possible way.
It consist of a tracker that is placed on your wrist and a quadcopter with a camera (camera not
included). With the touch of a button, it follows and films you automatically.
The Staaker drone follows whomever or whatever is wearing the tracker by itself. Using the
tracker, Staaker follows you and takes care of the filming automatically, even if you are alone.
Choose from 4 different tracking modes as well as Scenery mode. By using the tracker you can
always adjust the angle, height and distance of your Staaker relative to you.
