Review on Cheerwing Syma X5C-1 Explorers Quadcopter Drone with Camera - 2.4Ghz 4CH, 6-Axis Gyro, RC by Darius Slater

Revainrating 5 out of 5

It flies great. Easy to learn

This drone has been around for a week now. It flies great. Easy to teach. Used outside. It flies well in calm weather. Beware of the wind. The wind will rock it. I measured the battery life of the included 500mAh battery; just hanging I have 13 minutes. Do maneuvers, there was less time. This is with the camera installed and without the blade guard. So far the only problem I've found with the x5c-1 is with the SD card. I took pictures and videos. By inserting a flash drive adapter with an SD card into my laptop, I was able to see video and photo files appear. I could see the picture but not the video. Something with a file that cannot be read. I did a test on another computer and the same thing happens. Even Windows Media failed to initialize the video file. I don't know if the problem is with the SD card. I've also read of other Syma owners having the same problem. Sima has to pay attention to that. I want to see a moving video of the flights I fly. I hope Sima is working on hers
