Introduction
Chinese brand "JH TOYS INDUSTRIAL CO., LIMITED"Cheerson CX-20
The drone inherits only the best from the previous model. The developers subtly listened to the opinion of consumers, as a result, they significantly improved the quality of the plastic, installed two GPS modules for more accurate positioning, retrofitted an FPV kit with recording video in FullHD quality, installed a 2-axis gimbal for the new FHD camera and finalized the software. At the exit, the user gets a drone that is good by modern standards for amateur aerial photography.
Review
The flight characteristics of the Cheerson CX-22 are as always on top. Wind resistance and vertical thrust can be singled out separately. These characteristics significantly distinguish the CX-22 from the CX-20. Thanks to the controller and OSD module, the monitor that comes with the kit will display flight data telemetry and a number of equally important control parameters.
The CX-22 is available in two configurations: "CX-22 Standard accessories" and "CX-22 A Set". The first set includes the maximum package (drone case drone remote control 7-inch FPV monitor 1080P camera 2-axis gimbal for 5.8G camera 5.8G transmitter receiver 8GB memory card battery and chargers for the monitor and the drone itself).
The second set is budgetary and includes only the CX-22 quadrocopter (without gimbal and camera), remote control (without monitor), battery for the drone and charger, everything comes in a standard cardboard box. This set is suitable for pilots who cannot afford to purchase the full version right away.
- The CX-22 is available in two configurations
- The Budget Kit can be upgraded with all the missing options.
- The manufacturer offered 3 retrofit kits.
JH TOYS offered 3 retrofit kits: "CX-22 B Set Camera Monitor", "CX-22 With Set Camera" and " СX-22 D Set Monitor ". In the first retrofit kit, the buyer will receive all the missing options at once (1080P camera, 2-axis gimbal, 5.8G transmitter / receiver, 7-inch FPV monitor, battery for the monitor, charger, 8 GB memory card) . The second set differs from the first in that it does not include a monitor and 5.8G receiver. The third retrofit kit contains only a 7-inch monitor, 5.8G receiver, monitor battery and charger.

GPS module
The Cheerson CX-22 has two Beitian BN-800 (880) modules, one in the remote control and the other on the drone itself. Excellent friends with GLONASS. No complaints were noticed in the work.

It has a light indication of the battery charge, which is very handy. Users note the tendency of the battery to fail in work, most likely due to a marriage (solved by replacing it with a new one).

Quadcopter CX- 22 is suitable for amateur pilots who choose a drone for beautiful and large-scale aerial photography. Excellent dynamics, good photo / video quality even in low light conditions, as well as a set of modes and functions that premium drones have, bring this UAV to the segment of desired devices. Today, the unreasonably high price for a drone is embarrassing, which allows you to purchase premium quadrocopters DJI Mavic Pro and Mavic Air with these funds, which have a significant advantage both in manufacturability and quality of shooting above the drone presented in the review.
