Recently got a Syma X5C-1 and would recommend it for a starter. Bought a couple extra batteries and a charger so I can charge all 3 at one time. I'm new to this but mine flies good (we're talking hovering here). Did loose it in the wind the other day but after landing upside down it was fine. I...

Thanks Quest that really helps. Having one what are your thoughts on it.

I have a Syma X5C-1 and have been looking at the X8C. My X5C 10" measuring the opposing arms, the specs say 30 cm which is 12.2" Blade tip to blade tip is 14.25". Would someone with a X8C measure the opposing are length and opposing length blade tip to blade tip? I'm trying to get a visual of...

I did some more looking after I made the post and did see the transmitter essential included. I remember back in my RC Helicopter days we paint them certain colors to make them easier to see, but it's Bennett so long ago I don't remember which colors. Bet Google knows. :-) Probably have to use...

Thanks HD, Watched the Flitetest video the other night some very good tips. From the way I'm reading it the Amazon link doesn't include the transmitter or the extra blades that come with them normally. I keep thinking that the Orange one would be easier to see though to me not as cool looking...

Just got my Syma X5C-1 Wed 11/11/15. Hover some in the house because of the weather. Yesterday I was able to hover some out in the front yard. Today was the 1st time I was able to get it out in the open. Now mind you I am nowhere near being able to fly around. But I did slowly hover it across...

I wanted to keep track of the flights & maintenance for my quad(s) wanted something simple and easy to use. Not a programed so I used a database app for Android called Memento Database available in Google Play Store. If you would like to use or check it out you can download Memento DB here...

Mr H this is my court and you are out of line. Put your gavel in your pocket or return to your own court room. Mr R's case has been dismissed as a honest mistake. There will no $10 Wally World quads in this court room. Mr R. your free to go....

Going to be a little more work than just switching the lens. Already been that route, the odds are red and green so it will require surgery.

Yes you you have!!!!

I'm beginning to think that you are maybe similar to me in thought about the Syma, we both wish the Syma followed the norm and put the red lights in the rear instead of going down their own trail. I could also see how this could happen with the company you are keeping. I'm guessing if you would...

Heard from Amazon on the issue last night. They offered 1. Return & Refund 2. 50% discount Was looking at getting the Syma X8C as it was bigger and had better flying time. But decided to keep the X5C-1 don't know how much I would really use the camera anyway more of a novelty. So now I have a...

The bad weather went north of us so I took the x5c-1 out front for s little close in night flying. Wanted to checkout the video not really expecting anything create because of ghd lighting. Instead when I pull the camera button down to start the video nothing happens, no beep, no flashing red...

I thought about taking it to a local football field and see how far I could walk away and do a lift off. I really like your night idea thanks.

LOL I will take it under advisement and let you know.......

The X5C-1 came today, charged the batteries but didn't get much flying in. Mother Nature was upset so she's been blowing all day 11+ MPH with 25 MPH gust. Did however took it out front and fired it up. Did fine with the 11 MPH wind but the gust would blow the little feller all over the place...

On the Syma X5c-1 the green less or on the rear with the red on the front. Guess it really doesn't matter but I would think they should be switched. I suppose one could swap the lens. Maybe the Chinese use green for tail lights. ;-)

Thanks HD, I read where you would get better life from brushed motors by breaking the in. The first I heard about it was over on YouTube watching Quadcopter 101 videos. He mentions breaking in the motors. I flew (hovered really) R/C hellicopters 25 years ago or so still have one I started to...

Just ordered a. Symantec X5C-1 the other day. Should be arriving tomorrow. Shojjd be exciting can't wait. Weather reports are not good here tomorrow so I might just be running in the motors and maybe a little living room flying (hovering).
