Since becoming Europe's most successful Kickstarter project, Zano has announced it is to release its long anticipated drone to backers next week. Zano originally estimated that it would deliver its drones in June, however the company encountered problems including camera quality and short battery life. On a demo the drone failed to hover for more than five minutes, despite the company promising up to 15 minutes of flying time. Despite project delays and technical issues, the company hope that its backers will be pleased with the company's first drone.
