A5S Odin Sport Drone Flight Test Review
This croni quadcopter is a fantastic inexpensive sport flier. Find it here http://shrsl.com/?~cey1
Pro’s
– Great looking orange and black or red and black colors. The orange/black version is very visible in the sky.
– Great sport flier, great flips, very maneuverable, and lots of lifting power with plenty of punch. Take off the landing gear legs for even better performance.
– One key return and headless mode
– Uses widely available X5C batteries
– Can also use widely available X5C camera if desired.
– On/Off switch
– Good range of at least 100 meters.
– Does not require FAA registration.
Con’s
– Doesn’t shut down on loss of signal. Fly away potential. Keep it within 100 meters and you should be good.

……….I just ordered mine.
*Thanks for the review!*
is there a camera?
I see a lot of these quadcopters with curved tip props, which appear to
make less noise and have better battery life than Syma’s flat tipped “bull
nose” style. Do you know where to buy spares of these props?
i posted a few videos of this quad a couple of weeks ago and have been
waiting to see someone else post a video of this quad to verify whether the
loss-of-signal failure was just a one-off with the quad i had, or whether
it was a fault with this quad across the board. Looks like its a failure
across the board ……pity, its a great quad in every other aspect
Great video, love the orange and black!
Orange and black. HAPPY HALLOWEEN! They should have named it THE PUNkEN
BAT. That quad is a smooth flyer. It looks and flies great with those
clunky legs removed. Wish it had different color props in front. How much
does it cost?
I just saw another review. You were wise not to fly it too far. Reviewer
said that it wont shut off if it looses signal.
looks like mjx x400
do you km now where they ship from?
So this is one you write your name and phone number on with a finepoint
sharpie right out of the box with ehh. Thought that cut off had become
standard. I can hear some one in the design meeting saying if we cut that
feature we can save 5 cents per control board. We’ll just make orange to be
easy to spot! lol
Great review. Received mine this morning. The motors on mine “do” shut off
when the tx is switched off. When switching on headless mode it is always
better to calibrate before lift off (both sticks bottom right). Screws for
landing legs were in the package also. Nice quad at a low price.
Received mine today. The motors do stop when I turn off the radio.
