This large 5.8 Ghz FPV quadcopter includes altitude hold feature, and an unusual design similar to the Drone Lily. Its bright lighting makes it a great night flier. Find it here http://shrsl.com/?~bpf7
Pro’s
– Altitude hold and one key takeoff and landing.
– 5.8 Ghz FPV system. FPV monitor includes ability to change brightness..
– Predicted quadcopter control range of about 200 meters although FPV video range seemed to be much less..
– Very unusual design suggestive of the “Drone Lily” quadcopter. Inlcudes aluminum rod arms and plastic disk canopy and motor pods. Entire circumference of center disk is brighly lit, along with each motor pod. Easily seen at night. The front two motor pods are brightly lit white making it easy to maintain orientation at night.
– Includes headless mode and one key return.
Con’s
– Camera is pointed downward at an extreme angle. Only view of the ground below the quadcopter is visible in FPV and recorded video. This makes FPV flying extremely difficult as the pilot can not see ahead of the quadcopter via video. FPV flying is only possible if following ground cues, such as a road or path. FPV camera may be intended primarily as means to aim camera for selfies or other ground target objects.
– Automatic takeoff and landing with altitude can result in cyclic up and down movement. It’s best to take off manually and then set altitude hold once at desired altitude.
– More than 250 grams. Will require FAA registration.

Great video! I have a question for you Quadcopter 101. Have you, or do you
know of anyone that has done the brushless motor upgrade keep t for the
Syma x8c. I found a kit for it for around $135.00. Here is the link got it,
(
)
I’m curious as to how well it may work and if it’s worth the $135! Check t
out if you don’t mind, and let me know what you think. Keep up the great
videos!!!
Quadcopter101 what are your thoughts on the parrot drone 2.0???
awesome night flyer!
VERY expensive for a brushed model…
Not a fan of this one. Please keep’em coming.
mother trucker I just got my drone stuck in a tree 100 ft high
wow not a good quadcopter at all the v666n with the centre stick controller
is far far better than this
Quadcopter 101 you should bring more Quadcopter like the new one
Thank you for the reply! Did you happen to check out the link? It does
include a new board and it works with the original x8c transmitter. Then
again, I could just buy the jjrc X11 for around $110 which does gave
brushless motors.
Hey I just wanted to say please don’t recommend GearBest to anyone. It’s a
awful site who sent me a piece of crap X380 it’s shorted and fell out of
the sky at about 100 meters It is broke lights don’t work and I have to
order a ton of parts and spend more money. Not to mention I payed for 6-8
day shipping and didn’t get it for a month. The manual doesn’t tell me
anything and the stuff I need to know is all in Chinese. So today I got to
watch 300$ fall from 100 meters and crash after a manufacturer error.
G’day was wondering is you could do a video of the JXD 509G’s controls
including altitude hold feature. I only bought the quad but the
instructions are very sketchy and it is sitting in the corner.
