Current slide {CURRENT_SLIDE} of {TOTAL_SLIDES}- Best Selling in Quadcopters & Multicopters
All the reviews we read on youtube said "throw the camera away". It is usless. However we bought a 5 M pixel 'Sports Action Camera' for a fraction of the cost of a GoPro and this turns the little SYMA into a fun toy that takes good photos!! The range is very limited but can be improved easily with an additional antenna install (youtube again) It is easy to fly and crash, but keeps coming back for more. For the bucks it is a fantastic entry level photo capable quadcopter. Look at the reviews on youtube there are many. We've thoroughly enjoyed flying and ordered spare batteries ***get 2.5 mHa and look at the prices of 'crash kits from OS. Cheap WiFi controlled photos...

This quadcopter is quite easy to fly, I am a beginner and it took little time to be able to fly it. However, one of the motors stopped working after just four days. One of the wires from the motor was loose and it just stopped. Now I have to send away for a new motor and have it fixed. I am not happy with this aspect.

Recently purchased one of these X5SW Quad's from Cheerwing and it has been great fun. My 9 year old daughter has loved getting her hands on it and it has performed brilliantly. She can confidently fly around and is loving the flip function. Its taken a few heavy hits but was repairable and up and flying again with a little effort. I would recommend you get a genuine Syma unit, as I first got a cheaper copy which well didn't cut the mustard, already had to replace a motor. Don't get me wrong, you will crash this Quad but its well built and can be repaired with lots of spare parts available online. If you are wanting to dip your toe into Quads without spending big then this is a good point to start. Just be warned it will get under your skin and well you might find its your first of many quads!Read full review

This drone is great for any person starting off, it gives a chance to find out if you prefer a camera quadcopter or one with more speed by alternating the two speed modes. I have found that in high speed mode it is possible to fly in low to moderate wind but requires a bit of "fighting" it as expected. The quadcopter also is capable of doing flips from only about 1.5 metres high which is a bit of a fun feature that was included.

Great quadcopter for the price!! Easy to operate Instructions simple to follow. Although if you follow heading numbers some appear to be missing as does description for #14 on control screen. This said within minutes you're up and flying. App and camera work well. Battery life as stated Good starter quadcopter Addictive fun π
