syma-x9x-whiteReview of the Syma X9 Flycar Quadcopter

The Syma X9 is a two in one quadcopter.

A quadcopter that can drive on the road and then fly away.

Syma has just released the new X9 after intensive testing, there are clones out there one called the SY X25 which has a camera and very popular, even being clones they are ok as not fakes. The Syma X9 genuine original. As you can tell I am really into Syma products as find them well built and priced correctly.

Now To My Review of the Flycar

She comes at the moment in four colors, Blue, Black, Red, Green. I find the black color a little hard to get, but as new more colors will flow from Syma factory.

The flycar works in fly mode and like road mode, it comes with a 4CH 2.4GHZ remote(TX) and has a 6 axis gyroscope which gives pretty good hovering ability, the TX can be changed to Mode 1 or Mode 2.

So you can fly indoors or outside and actually takes a fair bit of wind force which I enjoyed.

Charging The Syma X9 Flycar

x9-charging

Lipo batteries are tricky guys to charge, learn how to correctly charge them and how to look after your lipo battery. Below is a link that might help. I have bought a much better charger from Hobbyking The battery has it own connector so can be charged without removing from quad using usb connector, personally I take battery out of quad. Allow at least 10-15 mins to let battery cool down before recharging, if not your battery will not last long. Also consider buying more batteries as you will need more flying time. I will get a link for them soon. Some Parts Here It

The Build And Appeal

The build is interesting, sure plastic as most quads are built with, but durable with a shiny finish. The tyres are some soft plastic not rubber hence lighter in weight, all ok, below pics on size. Click to enlarge.

The motors are pretty well protected

SymaX9C-Flycarx9-flycar-greenThe remote is very like the one that comes with the Syma X5C and is doable considering the price of the X9 around $60.You need 4 x AA Batteries for the remote.

A quick flying video.

One great thing I enjoyed was flying the Syma X9 at night:Video Flying Review, also Night Flying below.Night flying near end of video.

I have only had the Syma X9 for 10 days so I will be adding more on this review as I put the X9 through some hard tests. I want to see how much the motors can take as they are brushed motors, I also want to try fpv with a mobius camera, at this stage not sure if it will carry that weight, keep you posted.

I do recommend buying the Syma X9 and my preferred buying links below.

Amazon is my preferred seller
