Syma X5SW Camera Weight

[Lester Bennett]

I've just purchased a Syma X5SW and am waiting for it to be delivered. In the meantime I would like to get ready to fit my SJCAM SJ4000 in place of the wifi camera that comes with it. The total weight of the SJ4000 with mounting is 95 grams. Can anyone tell me what the weight of the Syma wifi camera is?

Ain't gonna happen.

You can't just make a statement like that without backing it up with facts.
On what do you base this statement?

Syma X5-series quads are relatively small for carrying an aftermarket camera. In terms of relative size, think of micro quads as "General aviation", like a Cessna that you would fly with a private pilots license. The Syma X5 variants in terms of size, would be like a military fighter plane. A Syma X8-series, or a DJI Phantom and similar size quads that usually carry a camera that size, are your "commercial airliners, cargo planes, and heavy bombers". That's about the easiest way to describe it in terms of capacity to carry loads.

Thanks Chuck.

Best little cam you could lift with an Syma X5C1 would be the venerable 808 #16 V3. I still take to the skies with my 808/X5C1 frequently despite having a fleet of more advanced craft. IMO no fleet should be without an 808 in its arsenal.

Here is a little flight around some WW2 bunkers in Denmark. 808 simply attached with an elastic band, music by the legendary ....... er (in a way) C.S Nielsen. lol
