SIMREX X300C Remote-Controlled Mini Quadcopter Drone

SweetRelish: I don’t like it. It is more of a toy than a drone. Good for kids starting to have a drone. It’s not registering on my iPhone, not easy to operate

constanceconstance: Can’t access the Simrex FPV app in AppStore, don’t know why and can’t figure out how to connect and have use of the camera without the app

Adam lovecraft: This must have been designed by the same child that built it. I bought this after trying a friends drone and now I know that cheap is not the way to go. His wasn't super expensive but it wasn't this bad. The battery literally throws off the balance and it will basically fly in that direction and it will not change. Tried multiple tweeks to blades and balance but it's not worth it. absolute junk

Mark Austin: This little drone is well engineered and all the systems work great. It flies very responsively, plus it has so endured at least 50 crashes, some from a great height. Very highly recommended for a beginner like me. I have seen people on the other reviews having trouble with out-of-control flight. This was only an issue for me with my very first flight where I didn't calibrate the compass, which is a one button operation. Every time you remove the battery, you have to calibrate the compass when you power on again. After learning this, the crashes were all mine because it has flown beautifully. There is another trick if it is really wanting to fly in a particular direction with your fingers off the controls: There are arrows to push that will null this out. I don't know how it is accomplishing it's altitude hold but it is very good at this too. Since it doesn't have any belly sensors, it must be a barometer, but dang. It is really good.

You must buy a two battery pack when you get this thing, because the flight time is a scant 8 min or so. If you only have the one battery, this will be a big drawback. For $16, you get two batteries and another charger so you can charge two...

Horea Dorca: The media could not be loaded.  I was going to say how impressed I am with this drone after three weeks of use it was still working great. Then one of the motors stopped working. I'm not going to complain about that because after all it's been through this was expected. What I am complaining about is the warranty. I literally couldn't find anywhere to claim the warranty. On their site they don't even have a warranty option for this drone. When you register this drone for warranty they also claim to give you a spare battery after you leave them a good review. That's how they get so many good reviews. That battery never arrived even though I left them a good review on the first day.

DavidSP: When I was younger I remember getting a helicopter for christmas that was attached to a line and would go in circles. This drone brings back all those memories. Do not make a mistake like me and have to wait on the one battery to charge, make sure you buy more battery's when ordering this, because battery life is around 5 to 7 minutes. I just ordered 8 more battery's and a multi charger. I have never flown a drone before and it was fairly easy to pick up on the do's and don'ts. So far it has not failed me, I have run this into trees, bushes, side of house, and it still keeps going. With the blade guards on it, it is tuff. If you want more battery life, do not use the camera. I just took it off. I would say it is a great beginners drone. Don't fly without blade guards though, I found out the hard way when i flew it into my hand. Those blades hurt!!! I was hard headed and did not read the instructions first. Read the instructions.

Lucía: Perfecto para iniciarse. Fácil manejo y diversión asegurada. Que el mando vaya por batería interna y no por pilas es un punto a favor. El único pero es que solo trae una batería pero se pueden comprar aparte y si buscas las compras por unos euros en aliexpress. Camara de muy baja calidad típica en este tipo de drones. Helices de repuesto de gran importancia ya que al mínimo roce las suelta y toca buscarlas.

Amazon CustomerAmazon Customer: The media could not be loaded.  My very first drone and I am impressed of the features that this drone came with. Took a while to get it all set up and read through the manual, down load the APP for my phone. It took me a couple of practices to get a hand of how to control the drone (once I was used to it, it was lots of fun). Drone fly pretty fast, make sure you are in a large room or outside environment...cause I crashed the drone into the wall a few times. The drone was very durable, only the propeller fell off, but you just pick it up and insert back into the leg. The control is small but in with lots of features, make sure you read the manual , so you know how to use it. I like how the control has a holder for your phone. You can launch the App , and on the App you can turn on the camera. YES...the drone come with a camera, you can take photo, record video in real time. You can also control the flying of the drone from the APP, but it was kinda hard, I like to use the control for the flying.

If you are someone who's looking for a Mini Drone...I would recommend this one. Great value.

AmazonPhilAmazonPhil: Received this today and took on a couple of test flights. I also own the simrex x11 which an absolute beast of a drone.

This one is a great first drone, it’s tiny! But it has many features and also cheap so not a problem with not crashing a few hundred pounds from the air!!

Again from simrex, smart secure box, comes with spare rotors. Charging this battery doesn’t take long at all and tend to get 15 mins or so from it.

You pair the drone to your phone and take photos and videos in 720p, again whilst not an unbelievable camera think of the size of this thing and the price point, it’s amazing where technology now is. The VR flying sounds cool but I haven’t had chance to test this yet.

The box says 14+ age which so does my x11 but even I’m scared of my x11 and I’m mid 30’s, this is great for a techno minded teenager and makes a much better gift than a shop bought usual toy.

The only downside is it’s winter at the moment and I can’t wait to get out in spring and test this to it’s limits in the garden getting some footage. We are going on holiday soon and this will be great to take away with us.

I highly recommend this...

Mr C Goodwin: This is my first venture in to the stone world and this was for our son. If anyone is concerned by the size when ordering, I would say this is a perfect place to start. Well packed, good instructions and easy to get going, our son was able to get it going straight away and it was easy to handle and manoeuvre.

We have not had the opportunity to give it a full workout yet but it looks like it will be everything we expected and as described in the Amazon listing.

After assembly, the test flights were successful. The controller is easy to understand.

The calibration steps are important to follow and help make for successful flights.

The 1080p camera is plenty for the price of this drone.

We are really looking forward to using it to follow my son when skateboarding and taking some aerial shots of our newly built extension.

Once we have chance to add some videos we will update the review.

I wouldn’t hesitate even after such a short Soave or time to recommend this drone. Great price pour easy to set up looks well constructed and easy to control this far.

Brilliant product.
