    Hello
    I've flown RC planes and helicopters many years ago and recently retired. Now, looking for a new hobby, I bought my first drone, a Yuneec Typhoon H. I really like it but after a near collision due to a LOS, I decided to buy a small "beater" to hone my skills. I'm seriously considering a Syma X5UC ($50) or X5UW ($75), especially because of the plug-in battery (similar to the Typhoon, Mavic, & Phantom 4). Looking for any advice.

    Well I'm a Retired Grandpa & quadcopter newbie too, & I just bought a Syma X5UC on ebay for $13.99 w/ free shipping.
    I'm over anxious to give it a whirl.

    Sorry, but that's impossible. Better double check what you bought. All I saw at that price was 3 batteries + charger... no quad.

    You're right, RG. I pressed the wrong button. I often do that on my transmitter too.
    At my age, somebody should be keeping an eye on me.

    Hello everyone... I took part in drone racing from last 1 year. It’s awesome game. Everyone enjoy this game. There are so many companies who arrange drone racing game. Now a days, drone racing trend is growing and so many competition arranged every year.

    Well I guess you need to get the quad seeing how you already have a good supply of batteries. :)

    How do you post a question to this forum? I really need HELP! I purchased a new GPS quadcopter, (Feilun fx 176c) and I can't make it fly. :( I've read the book over many times, and even though the instructions are wrong, I cannot get it to do anything accept to unlock the motors. Hope someone who knows about these things - can help me. Very depressing.
