    Syma X5C-1 Modifications thread

    Also,keep in mind most batteries almost never perform to their max potential when new..In testing its not uncommon for them to perform below rated performance but should generally improve with use or cycling. If they arent performing after say 10 to 15 cycles then they are probably garbage or a...

    Syma X5C-1 Modifications thread

    Hopefully i dont experience the same results..If i do, ill be sure to post about it. UDI had some 240mah batteries that outperformed everything in its mah range...Some of these stock batteries are pretty good. The same with some older WL Toys V911 stock batteries...They performed along side...

    Quadcopter pitches more backwards than forwards

    Are all your control rate adjustments the same for forward and reverse pitch? If forward pitch is at 90% and reverse is at 120%, that would pretty much cause that.

    Quadcopter with maximum transmittion distance?

    A simple 2 watt 2.4g booster will get you 2000m.....Known to lose signal sometimes though which will cost you a quad at that distance. The best for very long distance is UHF....not cheap at all.

    Syma X5C-1 Modifications thread

    Not sure..ill get a weight of a milk cap and see what it weighs...Its not somethin that interests me personally though. They're supposed to be good batteries from that place..Hopefully the 480mah i try works out.

    I ordered a Venom 700mah 35c battery for my Nihui U807....Since the battery has a micro losi connector on it ,im going to give it a try in the X5 before converting to a JST plug to fit the Nihui. So the batteries ill be testing are. 1.) Stock Syma 500mah 20C 2.) No name china 500mah 25c...

    The recent four small Quqads

    I wouldnt pick any of them personally...Anything with the wifi fpv is already an investment into failure. Wifi FPV is horrible and not that dependable, even in hobby grade form. The JJRC H25 is maybe the only model i would remotely consider if i HAD to choose one off the list... It is a...

    Yes ,they are....the motor are about $15.00 a set depending on where you order them from...Both the Nihui and WL toys share the same motor plugs.

    Pick yourself up some WL TOYS V636 motors to swap out the stock motors with if you want even more power and speed.

    Syma X5C-1 Modifications thread

    Well im having my first problem with the X5...It seems the power switch may be faulty as it doesnt want to turn on sometimes or maybe its the battery plug but, i plan to eliminate the switch and just plug in directly...I was looking at some deans micro plugs to replace the stock micro losi...

    JJRC X1 Quadcopter - Opinion

    The X1 is fairly a new quad...youre best bet for any sort of feed back is going to be youtube. Although it is brushless its still going to be somewhat of a toy grade quad...JJRC like many other toy quad companies all have hit and miss products...No one company makes every quad a great product...

    Nihui U807 modifications thread.

    Buy lots of spare motors and some flight boards as well as batteries., you will need them...Because the quad CAN lift the camera it doesnt mean you SHOULD carry it...Its way too heavy for the Nihui despite it being able to lift it....I dont recommend it at all...If anything a WL TOYS fpv set up...

I e-mailed them via amazon site to ask for a delivery date as they arent supposed to take your money until just before shipping...After 3 days of no delivery date after they...
