Syma X5C 2.4G 6 Axis Gyro 2.0MP HD Camera RC quadricopter RTF 3D RC Helicopter

Customer Review

A buddy of mine came with his Syma past me and presented me videos in really good quality. Colors, focus and exposure matched, although the image always appeared somewhat pixelated. Still, I was excited and wanted to now also have ordered at Powertab.
This thing came on and I was also surprised by the excellent flying characteristics. This part is like a 1 in the air, is manageable at all times and in my opinion needs no altitude stabilization. Between flight mode high and low I've noticed no difference. At full scale both stick to the left or right to rotate one would have to worry about surprises without his closest circles. Once full left, full right ... and you a great 8 has flown. Really tip.

Then I made the first video recording and thought I had what the eye. The pictures were the purest Farbenbrei. Nothing was clear, colors namely exposure fit, but of sharpness was nothing here to see.
I'm pissed and will write the seller, after all, I have due to the good Rezensis ordered from him and to come up with what, so I can get the camera that many of the local buyers and also my buddy. After flying with the copter is secondary for me. I want to make mainly halfway respectable videos.

Not zurfriedenstellend seller is the answer: The image quality equivalent to factory standard. If I did not like that, I could return the copter and would get money, including shipping costs back.
Well, it's just the Cam big cheese. The copter is ok.

When I asked him whether he can because not just send another Cam, and if not, to what address should I send the copter, he has not answered.
Under "Powertab" neither redemption procedures are still a return address. So I'm assuming that you can get at the copter Powertab with a camera that delivers only blurred images, or makes worse shots than any perfectly ordinary Keycam. With HD or a corresponding resolution has nothing to do.

I almost think that one should make any great hopes for good pictures in this price segment. Just as it is with the Keycams. The cheaper are, the worse the image and the more useless the recordings. Who can still make good videos, has been lucky with his copy.
This was true of X4 Hubsan FPV and is now at Syma X5C. Both made lousy shots. Only the name HD or Full HD should suggest that sharp images are possible. This is not like that. After all, when specifying only the dimensions of the image. What is then seen there, depends on the quality of the components and also of the lens.

I Will not overdo it, but I slowly pushes on the suspicion that consciously incorporated some good cams in the productions of such copter with Cam, whose happy purchaser then report on their satisfaction other. The turn also purchase such a part, are disappointed, but keep it then, because of shipping to China really is an impertinence. If one does yet, gone for the item and the money. It has nothing in his hand. No longer do you get back even money ... then what? Lawsuits?

The Syma I keep. Meanwhile, I have made flights with a angekletteten Keycam which cost 35 EUR. The picture is okay, but I wonder if I do not yet buy a higher quality Keycam. There is enough of variants. But do not back out of China. Then I give rather more money, buy in D and can return the part again immediately.

Therefore, in conclusion, my advice: If you want to buy the Syma or another copter with camera, about what is more important to you - The Flying or films.
The Syma's without Cam, so perfect for fly's.
Let him be mainly filmed and the copter is only means to an end, then also buy the Syma without Cam and then look around for a really good Keycam that will carry the Syma loose. Only then you have additional expenditure 70-120 EUR expected. But I think then is not only HD plan but also HD comes out.
