Sums 8xg

[Garyp]

i have a syma 8xg drone. Is there an app I need to download to use the camera?

the X8G does not have wifi the pictures & video are all loaded to the memory card in the camera.You need the X8W to do wifi but that only has a 2.0 mp camera.

 

[Garyp]

So you're saying I can't take pics or video while its in fight?

 

[ian-a]

no, you can take pics & video but not fpv ,when you were asking if there was an app.I assumed you meant fpv or have I read your post wrong

If you are using Andriod search google play store for syma you will find the app you need there

 

[Garyp]

I downloaded a few apps for my iPhone but they don't work.

[ian-a]

what exactly are you wanting the app. for

 

[Garyp]

I thought you could watch it in flight from the app.

If so it is not WiFi capable.

For what you seem to want you would need one of these.

BTW both of those have inferior cameras.

That's the one I have... Oh well I guess I'll live with it for now.

 

[Garyp]

Oh yeah, where can I get a set of English instructions?

 

[Garyp]

Also, how in the world do I switch it to headless mode so I don't have to have the camera facing me? I know it is somehow the same button as the hi/low button...
