    Repair Question

    Long story short. Flown when I shouldn't have. Too windy, too many crashes. 3 props spin up, 4th doesn't. Fried a motor on my Syma X5SW-1. Ordered a combo set last week when I didn't need em, now I do: set of props, prop guards, landing gear and motors due in a couple weeks. Looks like the...

    1200mAh Batteries for Syma X5SW

    I have a X5SW-1 delivered this past Thursday with a 780mAh batt. I ordered 4 800mAh batts plus charger from Banggood at $12.99 at the same time. They arrived yesterday and been using them since. Just walked in the door after 30+ minutes flying with the 4. Happy so far.

    1200mAh Batteries for Syma X5SW

    Yeah. I got a black one too. Being a newbie, I don't have much experience to be able to give advice. All I can say is that after about 2 hours of flight time my 800's are doing great and so far no problems for the Syma.

    1200mAh Batteries for Syma X5SW

    Just got in my 800mAh from Banggood for my X5SSW-1 and they are a world of difference. Mine came with a 780mAh batt and it was 5-6 minutes flight time at best. Ordered the 4 800's + charger for $12.99 shipped. They came in today. They are actually smaller in size than the 780 but pack more...

    Yeah they do. LOL. Just climbed an eight foot ladder holding a five foot stick using my phones light to retrieve my Syma X5SW-1 from my neighbors tree. Lower branches thank goodness!
