My phone doesnt want to pair with the camera on the drone? When I connect to the Wi Fi and press go on the syma app. I just get set to a phone version of the controller. There is a camera icon at the top left, when i press it nothing happens? What can I do to fix this?
I didnt get the sd card
I connect on wifi which is very difficult to wait for long
I just got one can you make a video how to fly it
Great review man, just picked up one of these, very helpful thank you.
How much did it cost?

I have a similar model. It’s the U5UW FPV quad, no brand. Is very similar to this I think. Different body shell, and controller. I paid less than $18, delivered.
Actually ordered a 2nd after receiving the first one.
These will go FAST. Sell out I mean. LOL
Pretty quick though, 3 speeds. Alt hold that really works!!! The FPV is top notch. I have 6 FPV quads. The FPV is even better than a AJK or Wolfwhoop system. 3.7v, 500 mAh lipo.
Removable camera too. Only 88gms. Yep, gotta register? Meh. ?
It’s fast, agile, 7-8 of flight time. Tough as blue steel. Mine had a dog fight with the ceiling fan. It bent a couple props. No broken, just bent em back.
$ 17.99
Uh huh. Can be app controlled too. ALSO….ya
can trace a " flight path " on your phone screen and this little quad will actually navigate the path you drew.
Auto take off and land. When trimmed, this hovers like glued in the air. It might wander 6-8 inches. $18 ok?
I think I will get a few more. $50 for 3 FPV QUADS. That work.
DJI can eat a rock.
Syma, Look out. My
I got another one. A DJI Phantom 4 clone. LMAO
Really? It’s about like this U5UW unit. It DOES look like one, or a half size of a Syma X8C. Even has the two bands of red electrical tape. 😁 It’s a tad better maybe? Different camera too. $ 39
I really like Syma, but there are lots of these" overnight companies " popping these El cheapo quads out. These will be $5 one day.
O.P. I hey, you do quality vids. Informative, easy to understand, JUST enough.
Do a few more.
So I got the exact same drone flew it twice then started giving trouble where now 2 sides of the blades are lifting off and the 2 other blades aren’t. Help!
What is the range of this drone
It’s not a paint job. It’s plastic.
Milliseconds? Huh. Hundredths, maybe.
You have a nice living room.
Hello myfirend 😁😁😁
I have ond🙂
i didn’t got the memory card which one do i buy?
I have a problem, I’m connected to the wifi connection, it says no internet connection, and when I open the app, it doesnt show the camera, even though the camera is connected
i bought one in South Korea and now im in Australia and i flew it and was very cool. but sadly i have lost the battery for it so i cannot fly it 🙁
I got one it’s the same I got one from Christmas
I cutted my thumb before i watched this and tried on my first try
I got mine for Christmas and just flew it for the first time. I think I did pretty well but I had a scare when I tried to fly it really high and I tensed up and lost control and it went above the neighbors’ house. I got it back though.
So, if I detach the camera, I am gonna get more range?
It’s a fun drone but you can’t see the light’s in the daytime, and when it flies out of range it keeps going, if u buy one put your phone number on it
Had to send mind back, could not get it to sink up with my smart phone.
How do I get the app
I found my syma in my neighbours tree 😀
Story:
My neighbour noticed something red in his palm tree, and he climbed it and found a drone (neighbour probably lost battery and it fell into a tree because the battery was dead) and gave it to me (he knows I like rc’s) and now I have a drone (had to buy a controller)
Um yeah just so you know thats not the X5UW-D. The X5UW-D has the optical flow sensor, the X5UW does not. Youre reviewing the X5UW
I can get my camera to work, anyone know why?
Mine came with 3 batteries
For what is that"headless mode"?
Just got mine today from prime day. Thanks for posting this! FYI mine came with extra battery inside
Nuevo suscriptor
I give it $60 shake on it
Just got mine today. It came with 2 batteries. I struggle with control. The Manual says nothing about trimming the way you explained it. When my batteries charge I’ll try again.
But when I binding it up and down lights on the SYMA-GO copter are still blinking,what should I do? Maybe this thing is broken? Help please
One year later just snagged this on Amazon flash sale over the BF holiday sale and I guess they must’ve seen your vid as low and behold mine came with two batteries, Lol.
Started flying these addictive things with cheap Syma products. You’ll find they are plasticcy and cheap, but they take some heavy battering and good to learn on.
Mine came with 2 batteries but No sd card. I haven’t seen to many products that come with an SD card ever.
If you dont have phone service will the fpv not work?
Good to have a remote controller. Some drones may only have remote control via a mobile phone, saving on manufacturing costs.
Looking at the video for the 20th time, and owning the same drone, I noticed that the lights blink at more of a heartbeat rate while recording. When the battery is low it blinks constantly. Awesome video, you taught me how to fly my drone and I still refer to this video if I have a questions. Thanks D.
Great reviews
I didn’t get the sD CARD
I prefer using my phone to controll it
I just got one of these type of drones today. It’s a X5UW-D " FPV Real – Time" So slightly different features " Am Not entirely sure what the differences are", I note it has steerable camera, but does not come with extra battery or SD Card. Great review, hope I have some fun, with it. I don’t think it uses Wifi, not sure what the benefits are, seems you may be having problems with the Wifi Version.
I got this drone for my birthday and it was the first one I’ve experienced. Unfortunately mine just keeps going up and doesn’t hover. Do I have to do something with the trimming?
