Specification
Appearance
Motors
The quadcopter is equipped with brushed motors. The developer does not specify performance information. In practice, the potential of the power plant is more than enough. He performs the programmed flips without failures.
- The user has two modes of consumption. It is recommended for beginners to start with the first one (set by default).
- Safety first! Overcurrent Protection for motors allows motors to be switched off when something interferes with their operation. This approach ensures maximum safety and extends the life of the power plant.
Power supply
Power supply of Syma X20 is built on a built-in 1-cell (3.7V) lithium-ion battery with a capacity of 180mAh 0.66Wh. According to the specification, it provides a flight time of about 5 minutes, which has been confirmed in practice. Charging time from the stock charger is about 50 minutes.
- If the battery level is low, the drone will make a soft auto-landing.
- On the one hand, the built-in type of power supply is a significant drawback, since it excludes the possibility of changing the batteries, on the other hand, this approach significantly extends the service life of the collector motors, because they have time to fully cool down during charging battery.
Control
Control is realized by means of a 4-channel controller operating at a frequency of 2.4 GHz. It features a distinctive hyperboloidal design that emphasizes the overall portability of the device. The potential of the electronics provides a distance of up to 70 meters. In a megalopolis, this distance will be no more than 30 meters. Power is supplied from 4 AA batteries (purchased separately).
