Review: Great quad with 500 ft+ range! - I've owned this quad for about 7 months and flown it for a total of maybe 50 hours or so. Overall, this is a great value and will provide hours of enjoyment. Some people have mentioned how the wind affects it, and in a 15-mph wind you'll likely have great difficulty controlling it. But I've found that moderate wind makes it more fun in some ways. For its weight, there is a LOT of body. The downside of that is how affected it is by the wind. But the upside of that is that if it ends up in a free-fall for any reason (battery dies, pilot error, hit by EMP wave, etc.) it will likely survive the fall if it lands on grass, trees, etc. It is super easy to fly on "normal" mode... give yourself about 4-5 flights to get the hang of it. On "high" mode it reacts much more drastically and will lean so much it may hit the ground if you're not careful. Camera quality: Rather than simply give my opinion, I'd suggest doing a search for "X5C videos" and evaluate the video quality for yourself. Flight duration: On average, about 7 minutes. And that's using the video camera about half the time. Maximum range: A friend of mine and I tested this on his 500-ft long driveway. I was at the end of the driveway and the quad was still getting a signal back at the house. And no, I haven't done any of the range-boosting modifications. Depending on where you live you *might* pick up some interference from other signals. I've taken it straight up at maximum speed on a calm day for 60 seconds before it lost connection. At that height you can barely see this tiny quad so be careful! =) Speed and Rate-of-climb: I would estimate around 20 mph and about 10 ft/sec. (you'll need to be on "high" mode - top left button toggles that function). Durability: I took this quad about 500 feet high and let it free fall - it landed in the grass completely undamaged. One time my friend crashed it into my house at full throttle and that incident bent one of the propeller blades - I bent it back into place and it's been flying fine. Worst accident I had was when the wind caught it and it hit a neighbor's roof, then fell 2 stories down onto the pavement. That time it cracked a motor housing. I put some glue & tape on it and its performance hasn't been affected. Tips: Once you get the hang of it, take off the propeller guards. And definitely buy at least 4 batteries with a 4-battery charger. As an added bonus, get a USB portable charger (around $15 on desertcart) to charge your batteries while you're in the field flying. Who wants to have to walk back inside to charge batteries? Fly safe! Review: Still the best introductory quad for beginners and a lot of fun too! - This light little quadcopter is the perfect introduction to quad flying for beginners and is an excellent quad for intermediate and expert flyers as well. It has a lot going for it because of the light weight, incredibly cheap batteries which give the owner 5 to 9 minutes of flight per battery and are easily swapped out to have an afternoon of fun flying the quad. The motors, props and spare parts are plentiful and it is incredibly easy to repair this quad. I keep a spare handy so that if I have problems, I can simply swap out the bad one and keep flying until I have time to repair the one needing to be fixed. Back to batteries: I keep a USB charger battery with me and charge batteries in the field to rotate them out (after letting them cool) so I can keep flying. It is a good idea to let the motors on the quad cool before taking the quad up again. For that first flight, it is a good idea to just run the motors in a low-spin for 5 minutes to break in the motors. And it pays to clean the props and check the gears and drive train to insure there are no rocks or dust in them before flight. Do NOT take off from dusty and rocky ground. Find a clean surface to take off from and to land on. Clean and inspect your quad before and after every flight and your motors and drive trains will last a lot longer. Compressed air is the best way to clean the drive train and do avoid using lubricants since the plastic gears really do not do well with sticky or even dry lubricants. Just keep the parts clean. Open the quad every ten flights of so to do a deep cleaning and inspect everything. And DO buy a crash pack with spare motors, drive trains and other parts. Trust me, you'll be glad to have one or two on hand. The only down side is that the camera is of extremely low quality and it makes sense to just put it away and use a 808 #16 camera as a camera to get decent video from the quad. I use a Velcro strap to secure mine to the base of the quad. The video will be a bit shaky but this is a perfect introduction to aerial video on the cheap. For those really wanting to explore aerial video without breaking the bank, get the Syma X8C that can lift some pretty hefty cameras and fly for a long time. The X5C can produce pretty good video as well for under $100. Just don't expect cinema quality. I'm exploring camera mounts to try to minimize jello on the videos and also to try balancing the props to insure as stable a flight as possible with the craft which means better video in the long run. I regularly fly my X5Cs without the landing legs since these weigh down the craft and waste battery. I have never used the prop guards. Truly battery wasting weight and of practically no use, except for indoor flight which I never do. I also remove the battery door as it is really not all that useful and it saves weight to have it off the quad. The batteries stay in just fine without the door. And the quad has better ventilation for the battery as a result (a good thing). The X5Cs are so light I've had them hit me and they cause no injury or damage. It still pays to fly safely, but these craft are extremely low-risk and are wonderful park flyers. I've had them fall from up to 50 feet up and land on grass with absolutely no damage. They are truly tough and resilient flyers. The X5Cs have been around for quite awhile and this single aircraft had many manufacturers rush to copy it. It's a classic and is still a very relevant and useful quad for teaching and casual flight in parks and the great outdoors. A lot of quad channels on Youtube featured it and some of my favorite videos of it are from a guy called Quadcopter 101. His videos on the X5C are excellent. There are fewer videos featuring the X5C these days, but make no mistake, this is a very good and well regarded quadcopter and is perfect for flight training and all around fun. I have two of them and they are still real favorites of mine that sit next to my two Phantoms and my heavy duty Hubsans on every trip out to the field. That should say something. ## Features - Equipped with HD camera. - Perform flips at the press of a button with 360 degree eversion, Wind resistant and can be flown indoors or outdoors - 6-axis Gyro stabilization system ensures maximum stability during flight - 7 Minute flight time and 100 minute charge time. - Kindly refer the User manual for troubleshooting steps. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00MNG37C2 | | Age Range Description | Adult | | Are batteries included? | Yes | | Battery Capacity | 500 Milliamp Hours | | Battery Cell Composition | Lithium Polymer | | Best Sellers Rank | #239,304 in Toys & Games ( See Top 100 in Toys & Games ) #934 in Hobby RC Quadcopters & Multirotors | | Brand Name | Syma | | Color | White | | Connectivity Technology | Wi-Fi | | Control Type | Remote Control | | Customer Reviews | 4.0 4.0 out of 5 stars (6,598) | | Effective Still Resolution | 2 MP | | Global Trade Identification Number | 08600123451073 | | Included Components | SYMA-X5C | | Includes Rechargeable Battery | No | | Includes Remote? | Yes | | Item Dimensions L x W x H | 16.5"L x 12.2"W x 3.8"H | | Item Type Name | Quad Copter w/ Camera | | Item Weight | 1.6 Pounds | | Manufacturer | Syma | | Material | copter | | Maximum Range | 50 Meters | | Model Name | 4 Channel 2.4GHz RC Explorers | | Model Number | SYSX5C | | Part Number | X5C | | Remote Control Technology | RC | | Skill Level | Beginner | | Special Features | 6-axis gyro stabilization system, HD camera, 360 degree eversion, wind resistance, colorful flashing lights, blade protector | | UPC | 844949021678 | | Video Capture Format | MP4 | | Warranty Description | No Warranty | | Wireless Communication Technology | Wi Fi | ## Product Details - **Age Range (Description):** Adult - **Brand:** Syma - **Color:** White - **Connectivity Technology:** Wi-Fi - **Effective Still Resolution:** 2 MP - **Included Components:** SYMA-X5C - **Item Weight:** 1.6 Pounds - **Model Name:** 4 Channel 2.4GHz RC Explorers - **Skill Level:** Beginner ## Images ![X5C 4 Channel 2.4GHz RC Explorers Quad Copter w/ Camera - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51ebb9tp0RL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: I lost my the first time I flew it. Any way to find it** A: There are really only two ways:First Way: Step 1. Rent helicopter 2. Fly same path 3. Cut engines to helicopter. 4. Upon exiting crashed helicopter look nearby for drone. 5. Pick up lost drone. Second Way: You're screwed. Buy new drone. **Q: whats the actual video resolution?** A: The 2mp camera is the equivalent of a web cam from the early 2000's.Do not expect the video from the copter to be cinema quality.It is shaky and depending on your skill can be very disorienting to watch.Apart from that I think this copter is a great introductory device.I have enjoyed playing with it!I would totally recommend purchasing it if you are a beginner! **Q: Suitable to fly through my 20 inch eagle pro obstacle course hoops?** A: Some people couldn't. Some could. Takes some time to get used to. Doesn't act like other quads I've flown, but with practice you can make it dance like a puppet. Needs easy range fix right out of the box though. See YT. **Q: Do i need to register this drone under uas registration?** A: I just weighed my X5C with battery and camera it weighed 106 grams, well below the requirement, but I have 5 other drones, so I put my registration number and phone number , on all of them, just in case they fly away...... ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great quad with 500 ft+ range! *by J***. on July 19, 2015* I've owned this quad for about 7 months and flown it for a total of maybe 50 hours or so.
