Pros
– The quadcopter’s arms are foldable to make it very portable, such as in a backpack (similar to DJI Mavic Pro).
– Very maneuverable and sporty for a camera quadcopter. (Note, the current version being shipped now contains altitude hold)
– Can be controlled and flown via its controller or your smartphone/tablet. Controller buttons are all well labeled.
– Records relatively good quality 720p 20fps HD FPV video directly to a microSD memory card inserted into the quadcopter. Will also record video to your phone via WiFi, however the WiFi transmitted video is of lower VGA resolution.
– Camera lens can be swiveled up (to view sky and horizon), or down (to eliminate props from camera view)
– XSW UFO app is available on Google Play here https://goo.gl/r4fJdd and itunes here https://goo.gl/2m6Vyh
– Good control and FPV range of about 80 meters.
– Headless mode and one key return.
– Does not require FAA registration (and as of 5/19/2017, no quadcopter does anymore 🙂
Cons
– Proprietary battery.
– Version now being shipped contains altitude hold. As such, flight capability may be different than shown in this video, with less throttle control due to the height hold feature.

Will this work with a vr headset?
For some reason I can’t get the app to pair with the drone.
Will there be any way to disable the Altitude Hold on the new one?
nice, but that camera is trash unfortunately.
hi quadcopter 101, compared this
to hc629w, which one is better?
Dose it have to be fisheye?
If you use the app on your phone it has altitude hold. I wish people would read the directions or look at the app before they go make these videos
Do you prefer this model or the xs809hw?
Do enjoy your reviews mate. Keep it up 🙂
Hi guys, pls help me! I try to fly and record video on sd card, but I couldn’t find video on my card, pls advice me how to fix it
How do you arm it? Mine seems not to even set up the connection with joystick anyhow. Did everything as manual told me to, but nothing happend after tilting up, down the height stick, no auto-take off, and no engines running, trying to tilt downwards-inwards both sticks didn’t help either.
love the video makes me want to buy one (ps might)

Hi i have a qestion which memory Card should i use for my xs809 h-w-vga pls fast answer
Nice
Hi…i recently got this..on the back of the box i see that my model marked is XS809H W-HD & not the W-HD-G.
Can you please tell me the difference between the W-HD & the W-HD-G model. Does “G” stand for gravity as in for Height Hold mode. Im afraid aliexpresss sent me the wrong one.
I have one of these and the trim settings on mine is stuck it always wants to fly left witch is irritating had it for only 3 days now the range is not the best and has cut out on me also the wind affects this drone massively unable to fly.in any wing at all
Max range???…. Good vídeo!!
Você Ainda Tem Ele
Hi
Since it’s been some months since you posted this, I wondering if it still works? Thanks
can it make a topview video?
I have this exact model but when I put my sd card it goes in and gets stuck it doesn’t spring back out
Do you know where I can get the extra camera part? Also the wifi antena?
I never get why they can no put a decent camera on these its not like it would be a lot of money
This guy is amazing! I always check this guy out for what drone I’m getting and it gives me a lot of heads up! Thanks dude you earned a sub!
Does anyone known what the max size micro sd card it can have?
In this video is the recording from the SD card or recorded via WiFi? I’ve read so many things saying that if you record via WiFi,it will not look like 720p. In this case,it doesn’t look like 720p because things are too grainy and not true 720p clear. Thank you for your time as I’m considering buying one of these from banggood.
Bro my camera is diesnt work now a days in samrt phone why is it plz make how fixed that problem video my dron also same as your
Lasted 20 minutes, then one of the 4 engines burn out with clear smell of burning wire.
completely useless video too because no stabilizing.
if quality where better it could be a toy, as it is its junk.
how long did the battery last??
Hi thare, i bought one of these 720p, at the link it says that he has altitude hold, but i’m confuse, couse my model isn’t X809HW, just x809W… I’m waiting it tô arrive, but i would like tô know it…
Thank u so much!
does this need wifi
I purchased this drone from Amazon.com on their yearly savings day. After the savings plus Prime’s free shipping and handling, there was also a code to save even more money. My final cost was only $60! The model I purchased was the XS809H-W-HD-G. I’m not sure what the extra letters mean, although, I’m pretty sure the HD is for High Definition. My only complaint is it literally was on a slow boat from China, so it took a while to get to me (it came in yesterday). Since this is my first drone, I have nothing to compare it to. After it’s maiden voyage, I have to admit it’s super easy to fly!
hello , how long does it last flying ??
This is POS
Hello! Is Tomtop a legit site to order from? I’m reading some mixed reviews. Thank you!
Great vid, thanks for sharing. It looks like you can center the throttle stick.
If so, will it “simulate” Altitude-Hold? Thanks in advance. Keep up the good work
u said u didmt want to take it up high because of the wifi what do u mean dou mean so u cant go really high with this drone
Thanks for this
Nich
What a piece of junk. Waste of your money folks.
