This large GPS camera drone includes a 720HD camera with remote control of lens angle. Find it here https://goo.gl/Z6c8xW and spare motors here https://goo.gl/rn52Lw
Pros
– GPS positioning, altitude hold, headless mode, and one key takeoff and landing.
– Automatic return to home on lost signal, manual selection, or low battery status.
– 720p HD camera with WiFi FPV
– Camera can record video and images to camera’s microSD card to minimize WiFi lag.
– Drone’s in flight FPV video can also be recorded or viewed on your phone via the Syma FPV app available on Play here https://goo.gl/ZArZM9 or iTunes here https://goo.gl/w8ENtx
Cons
– GPS stability is an issue. If the drone is left to hover, it may start to wobble in an ever increasing toilet bowl circling. Applying pitch or yaw control can temporarily stop but not eliminate the wobbling.
– When activated, return to home did not return to takeoff point. Return to home had to be turned off to prevent flyaway.
– As this is a brushed motor drone, motor replacement will eventually be required. Redesigned X8 Pro makes such motor changes very difficult as compared to the original Syma X8C.
– Syma FPV app is very basic and does not include any telemetry.

One of the rotors wasn’t turning as fast
Can I control X8pro quadcopter by X8C transmitter?
8:09 Dang ! You look like a bigger version of me.
Mine does not wobble at all. And you need to use the syma fly app not fpv. I can see all GPS data, distance height and speed. I even see a little Google map. And return home also never failed me.
7:10 Cr🌬️…
That’s bloody disgusting, from an ok basic drone to a piece of sh#@*%. No thank you, and once again thank you for the heads up captain 101.

Once I pushed up the left stick after I hit take the take off bottom…started to move left and rolled over! What i am doing wrong? Please help!!!!
