This 5.8Ghz sport flier includes full acro, 3D inverted flying, and a 5.8Ghz wide angled FPV system with ability to record in 720p. If you like fast sport flying, but also want FPV, then this for you! Buy it here in black http://www.gearbest.com/rc-quadcopters/pp_328274.html?wid=21&lkid=10099221
or here in white http://www.gearbest.com/rc-quadcopters/pp_390784.html?wid=21&lkid=10099222
Pros
– Sleek and sporty looking.
– 5.8 Ghz FPV quadcopter (none of that WiFi baloney)
– Includes 5.8 Ghz FPV transmitter and receiver monitor. Uses 8 channels of Boscam band C.
– FPV camera also has built-in DVR to record 720p in flight video to a microSD card.
– Although battery is proprietary, spares are available and relatively cheap.
– Good range at about 300 meters. Much more than you’ll need for most flights.
– Acrobatics with full acro mode for flips, loops, and rolls. Also has 3D mode for inverted flying (experts only).
– Can be very fast with steep pitch, even in 6G mode.
– 220 grams weight. Does not need FAA registration
Cons
– Not for beginner fliers! Don’t even think about it. You will break it if you use this as your learn to fly quadcopter.
– Fuselage shell seems to be all lightweight plastic. As this is mainly intended as a sport quadcopter, am not too sure about its durability in crashes. Strongly recommend a crawl, walk, run approach with this quadcopter.
– Transmitter with attached FPV monitor is somewhat heavy. Might want to use a lanyard.
– Stock dual rate settings are pretty docile. Also not much punch or acceleration with stock settings. Might want to go into its menus and adjust dual rate settings for improved response.

the new version of the Chinese Mi Drone app for iOS allows you to disable
the “beginners mode 5 hr training”. I’m sure they’ll be adding it to
Android soon. We need an official Android English app.
you should do a giveaway
I’m looking for a Drone for my son I’m looking one that’s for about $100 or
under he really wants it to be FPV but if it’s not that’s OK or one that
you can record without an SD card. it has to be one without . I don’t want
one where you would put the phone on the remote control because he does not
have a phone. is there any drones that you would prefer because his
birthday is coming up. do you think the FQ777 would be a good present? I’m
looking for something like that, it doesn’t matter the size, but something
that you could get An app for and it comes with a remote but you can
control you can record on the app thank you and hope you reply
Would you say its good for a person who has flown a drone before but would
like something to do acrobatics and racing? I’ve never crashed a drone
because of my fault. If you don’t reccomend it, then what would you suggest
for aerobatics ?
I saw how you said this isn’t a learn to fly drone I’ve used the x5c and
x8c and never crash ten anymore I was looking at fpv quads would this be
better than the hubsan h501s or not I’m not to terribly concerned about God
stuff hope you respond
hey quadcopter 101 ! do you buy those quads ? or the company sends you
Loved the leg lifts. I can relate. Cool video, esp with the eye in the sky.
Curious if your conclusion was the front LEDs helped with orientation in
the setting (time of day) you had (or just got washed out)?
I hacked this comment so it can’t be liked
The front is like the eachine racer 250
I want to not be a beginner so I can fly this thing… You do some top tier
reviews man. Subbed.
