The new Syma X8sw WiFi FPV RTF camera drone has arrived from Banggood. I've gotten a chance to put a few batteries through this quad now, and I must say that I am very impressed with how stable it is. In low rates it behaves very well, and is great for getting aerial footage, and for beginners to learn the basic controls of quadcopter flight. In medium and high rates, it is able to really cover some ground, and is quite competent at fighting some wind. Just like the other Syma X8 series drones it is BIG, and has great physical presence. Its size alone is impressive, even before lifting off. Once in the air the size is a welcome bonus for maintaining orientation. As is typical with many of these ready to fly quadcopters, the camera works, but won't record in the quality that some may be looking for. You can see in the video below the kind of quality you can expect out of the stock camera. It is probably fine for most recreational use, and general playing around, but the quad is stable, and steady enough to produce some very good footage if you attach a higher quality action camera. There is plenty of power for carrying the camera of your choosing. One of the best features of these Syma X8 models is the LED lights. Not only do they look really cool when flying at night, but they also help to maintain orientation when it's too dark to tell which direction you're heading.
