P.S. I am a female. I love airplanes and vintage things. I was on a drone group, specifically for female flyers so I can learn about flying drones. When I got an idea that's when I purchased the Syma X8HG and I am pleased with it for now. I really don't have the money to by an expensive one.
I try not to drain the whole battery. I did have a long flight last week, around 8 minutes but could have lasted longer. The 2500 mah says about 10-12 minutes but I won't push it. About naming my drone. I had a poll at the Syma X8HG group on facebook. There was a list of about 8 names...
I
Phoenix, AZ. Here is my youtube playlist for my syma drones, the first one, "Silver Lady, which is out of commission and this new one "Scarlett"

I've bought on ebay so many times throught the years but lately, since the virus outbreak, it seems I am getting screwed with where the items are coming from. There was a seller that said they ship out of Phoenix AZ and after wondering what took so long it came from a chinese seller. Go figure
Thanks. What makes me angry about the seller is that it originally said, when I bought it, that is will arrive from California by March 12. When I checked the tracking it said by March 30 and it is a china post tracking. Who do I trust? I am tired of buying online, even from ebay, they lie to...
The box says drone only. Looks like new box. I am an idiot for rushing to buy. I could have spent $30 more for brand new X8HG with controller. So now I am stuck with an X8G and X8G controller, both on the way.
Here is where I bought it. I guess his price went up. I bought it for 83 total...
These are images from the Syma store where I buy my items. They look the same but I am wondering if the mechanisms are different,
This is for the X8G:
