Thank you for your suggestion. I will give that a try. Regards Tar :)

so far so good with the props. I also have an extra set of props that came with the machine. I have the prop guards still on while I am still learning this machine. Thanks for the links. There has to be someone out there that know what size these props screws are!!!!!!! If we...

Hi folks. Thank you Jackson for your reply. I am surprised that no one seems to know for sure what those screws that hold the props on are. They have to have some way to identify what size they are. Also thanks for the links Jackson but it seems a shame to have to buy all of the...

Hi folks. I was having fun with my X5C-1 until I lost one screw to hold the propeller onto the machine. I have looked around but nothing. Can anyone suggest where I can get some extra screws that hold the prop onto the machine. I think that I will get 4 more just in case I loose another...

Hi folks. Well I finally got all the blades sorted out on my Syma X5C-1. It now flies very well. I also understand now about how the props work and were they go. Thanks for all of the previous help and suggestions, they sure did help. Now I notice one motor being a bit sticky but with...

Hi. I have put the battery back on the charger (USB port) and the light came on so it sounds as if you were right and that the battery was low. I will wait until the battery is charged (the light goes out) and then try it again. Oh I will be glad when I get my proper charger IMax B6 and...

When you painted the props did that throw them off balance or did you see any difference in the way it flies? I am getting one and figured would do something like this so that I could see which was front from a distance. From what I have seen and read they are a great beginners quad...

I am not sure why but from reading and looking at YouTube about the quads there is several comments about it. Maybe because the batteries are made in China and their polarity is different from ours. Not sure why but just switch the ends and then everything is fine for our use. Hope this...

I have a Syma X5C-1 coming and I ordered a few extra batteries with it and they are the Turnigy ones and you have to switch the polarity around on the ends. There was a Youtube on this subject and he shows how to change the wires in the ends that come with the Turnigy.
