Which one do you recommend? Cheerson CX-20 or Flying 3D X8?
Nice videos jay!! :)
go and subs this awesome unboxer! :)
Your blades might be off balance. Get the Dubro blade balancer its really
the best one out there. And if your blades are balanced it could be the
motors need to be balanced look for video on youtube to balance them plenty
of them out their. If a motor is bent buy same motor they’re really cheap
if you can’t find the same motors then buy a set of x4.They are really
cheap on ebay. Good Luck
I was with you until the music started playing. I would much rather here
the quadcopter flying.
yes the music is a bit much, if it was lower and interspersed with the quad
sound here and there. That is what I would rather hear.
Awesone vid jay
TRY BALANCING YOUR PROPS FOR JELLO EFFECT
tighten up those landing legs man… i can see them wobbling like crazy..
dunno if that will fix ur jello but it will Definitely help
Just got my Cheerson CX-20 today. So far so good! One thing I noticed
though, and can’t find it anywhere on the web, is that this one has two
antennas. One coming down out of each side, and they get secured to the
landing gear like normal ones with only one antennae.
Have you heard anything about this? I think some Phantoms come like this
too. I made sure the two antennas are facing away from each other, but very
different!
+TWorldTV The Flying 3D X8 also has two for signal diversity but they’re in
the back motor struts. I’m planning to dremel two small holes in the bottom
housing so I can bring them down into the landing skids as you generally
get better signal if they are outside of the main body.
+Rob Nielsen thank you for the info!!
+T-Anthony78
I see, thanks for your reply
most of the open source ones come that way now. It’t the RX antenna but
they just seem to be that way now
+br011075 Amazon. It was the Seresroad version of the CX-20.
Check the X8 for cracks on the motor mounts, it’s a very common problem
with them, also watch out when using it in GPS mode, it tends to want to
fly away some times, another common problem with it. Right now mine is
heading back to the factory and I think I will be getting a new one,
ver.1.4, they have worked out all the bugs on it. For more info on the X8
check out this blog.
It’s all X8 owners where you can get lots of great tips, Good luck with
your X8 and keep posting the vid’s, your doing a great job.
Well done . Thank you for the information. Great vid .Heard that landing
gear on this quad sucked!!! Here in L.A. (Lower Alabama) next to beach.
Been looking at that cheerson a long time (.Have 11 quad,,s micro ,mini,
mid, and 350 size,,),,,.hard to beat after a year now.. looks like a baby
DJI. thinking that new Q500 typhoon might give DJI a run for their money
,,yea.. I would sure have the typhoon before a phantom any day, Check it
out. Fly on my friends.Flew 4 quads out yesterday, for an hour it was 70
degrees,yea long sleeves ha ha.
Love the song!
Hi I have s CX-20 on the way and have a question about the RTL feature. Is
it possible to rotate the quad when it’s engaged? Nice video!
how high does it go
Cool but the video quality looks like bouncing jello
That music you play over flying is so annoying
+Alex Curtis Agree but it’s difficult finding decent copyright free music
for YouTube vids…
Great vid + music! 🙂
What’s this funky music, please? Thnx.
hi im looking to purchase my first quad and im wondering what i should get
im looking to spend no more than $400. and information would be helpful
thanks
I can afford both of them, which one do you recommend?
wich one u think is better? thanks!!
looks good , but that music is to GAY…
Agreed,Get the Dubro blade balancer and stick a little piece of foam inside
the rubber dampers also this helps if the dampers are to soft but don’t
forget to balance your props very well. And if this doesn’t help get rid of
the jello than your motor is off balance or a bent shaft or could have bad
bearings from impacts and dirt in the motors bearings.Use a air compressor
on the motors to blow them out and more lube on motors And make sure motors
are tight with lock tight. 25 YEARS FLYIN YAY!!! Cheers happy flying!!
happy flying
I only put a drop of high quality lube on the bearings once every 6 months
it depends on how often I fly.Not like with Helicopters. I know the dust
can be like sandpaper. I also like using a self insulating lube that does
not turn dust into sand paper there’s all kinds of different lube that
works for different Application. But one thing only one drop every once in
awhile. If you say otherwise I will consider it and give it a try thanks
Its not multirotors specifically,its any motor with a sealed bearing.
Constant oiling ‘washes out’ the factory filled grease over time.
I have always done that on my collective pitch helicopters. Why not
multirotors?Thanks for info.
+Willie Gonzales Never oil the motor bearings!!!
I see a lot of shake on the legs for the flying 3d, you may have to rework
the motors or possibly the props? Not sure but it is going to be something
stupid to repair.
how long is the flight time for either?
you have to calibrate teh props to much wigling around …
You sure its x8 d x6?
How do you get the video stream from the SJCAM view down to your mobile
screen. Without using the camera built in wifi. ( as this is known to
interfere with control)
I see your interest in quadcopter where in Fla are you located?
Re the jello effect, I could see that your skids were oscillating from side
to side, this could be the new skids; try swapping them and making sure
they are firmly screwed on, but also balance your props.
It may be that the new skids are more flexible than the original ones or
that they are resonating along with the motors so balancing the props /
re-seating the motors could well help.
You should also install some nylon washers under the motor screws with this
quad as the plastic is very prone to cracking, particularly around the
motor housings.
The 3 D needs blades balanced I could see the legs or landing gear shaking
! The 3 D has a lot longer flight time and range than the Cheerson !
The most retarded comparison video on Youtube. My $15 minicopter could
outperform the quadcopter range and maneuvers displayed in this video. Fly
it to all the spec ranges you idiots. Otherwise you’re wasting everybody’s
time.
So compare. What was the big difference if any? What do u prefer?
Watching your video i noticed the the back right leg was wobbling at the
same rate the jello was on your vid.Possible cause of the vibration maybe?
Great review thanks.
I noticed the same thing might be able to tie some fishing line in an X
with some tension to stop that
So… Which would you recommend to buy out of these two?
