*** Great entry level small quad at a reasonable price ***

This is a great entry level small quad. Hubsan X4 (H107C) 2.4GHz 4CH RC Quadcopter with Camera - Red/Black, Red/Black. I bought this quad for my son who was 12 at the time a year and a half ago, it still works well and I'm impressed with how well it's held up. For the price, it's hard to beat. My son is 14 now and he and his 8 year old brother are having a lot of fun playing together. I would say it would be a challenge for my 8 year old just to play with it. I would define the age range for this quad as 10 years and older based on the coordination and skill required to operate it. The plane comes with rechargeable batteries and a lanyard. It takes 30 to 40 minutes to fully charge the quadcopter and it works about 5 minutes on a single charge. We bought extra backup battery packs which my son will pre-charge so he can fly for extended periods without having to wait for a charge. This uses a micro SD card which you will need to purchase as it is not supplied with the aircraft. The picture quality of the video is okay. This is on par with two other small quads that were roughly the same price. When I bought the quad I also bought this prop guard. Hubsan X4 H107 H107L Quadcopter Protection Propeller Blade Protection Cover Black. It protects the propellers, which is especially necessary when flying indoors where there are many obstacles and things to bump into. When I bought the quad I also bought an emergency spares kit. Hubsan X4 H107C Crash Pack Black/Red Quadcopter Spare Parts Having four people and several previous quadcopters, I knew we would only need spare parts due to normal wear and tear. These types of quadcopters are very small and extremely light, which means that their parts are also light and prone to breaking or falling off and needing to be replaced regularly. It is very convenient to have spare parts on hand. They don't have to hunt for parts or wait for order and delivery, so they can fly again immediately. This kit of parts got us this far and after a year and a half we still have quite a few left. Overall this is a pretty good little quad that should last you quite a while with normal use. If you have any questions, just leave them in the comments and I'll be happy to answer them.

Pros
  • Lightweight planer with good durability
Cons
  • Hardware
