The Snaptain S5C Drone is a great choice for anyone looking for a high quality flying, robotic toy. Geared specifically towards beginners, this drone costs approximately $60, depending on where it’s purchased. Price also depends on the actual model, as well. Here is some other information about the dynamic Snaptain S5C:

Product features

The Snaptain S5C features a simple one-button operation system, making it very user-friendly. Pressing the button will prompt the drone to begin flying. It will also return to you, or even land at your command. Since the drone is easy for even those who have never flown drones before, users can launch, fly, and land the amazing drone with ease.

The drone was built with several safety features, including a set of protective propeller guards that ensure stable and effortless flying. This device also consists of advanced ABS material, which allows it to remain intact and fully functional if dropped. The ABS material also minimizes the chances of shock occurring if the drone were to be dropped.

Multiple high resolution videos can be taken, as this high-tech device consists of a 6-Axis Gyroscope & Barometer sensor. This ensures a steady flying experience. Owners of this drone will also be impressed with uninterrupted recording, real-time image transmission and high quality photos.

The drone consists of a 1280*720 resolution HD camera with a control range of nearly 80m. Drone owners are therefore able to quickly and easily upload photos and videos to social media. The convenient WiFi abilities make it a cinch to connect to the internet, making sharing footage easier. Editing of videos is simple, and can be completed in moments. Videos are automatically saved to the micro SD card that the drone contains, for your convenience.

With this dynamic drone, there is no need to bother with trying to determine which buttons control what, because users can take advantage of the voice-control feature. There is also headless mode, as well as well as the ability to perform 360 degree flips and rolls, making it an excellent high-tech toy for kids and adults of all ages.

There is also the option to control the drone using gestures. There are specific gestures for taking pictures, to start recording, etc. These gestures are simple and can be performed by just about anyone.

Due the compact size and low weight of this object, it is high on the portability scale and can be easily transported anywhere. That means that hours of fun can be enjoyed with this drone, regardless of location. The Wifi signal will alert users of the level of connection. When the bars get low, it means that the drone needs to be flown in a different area, in order to maintain constant control.

Users can easily download the convenient Snaptain era app, enabling the use of a smartphone to enhance the entire flying experience. With a built-in G sensor, the drone can be easily controlled via the app, which allows vertical and horizontal positioning.

It’s easier than ever to track the S5C, as users will have access to the Trajectory Flight function, which is a new advancement in drone technology. The Trajectory Flight function works by allowing users to draw a flight map right on the touchscreen of a smartphone. The drone will operate according to the map, which promises hours of fun.

Landing is always problem-free, due to the convenient altitude-hold function. This feature ensures that the drone is able to hover steadily at a certain altitude.

Pros and Cons Listing

As with any project, there are both pros and cons to owning the S5C. Here is a list of pros:

Pros

. Affordable, yet highly advanced, with many impressive features.
. Only minimal assembly is required.
. Highly durable and can withstand being dropped and handled in a rough manner. This makes it ideal for younger users.
. Functions well, even on high wind days.
. Drone is able to perform many acrobatic and impressive moves.
. The S5C has various speed level possibilities, making it just as easy for beginners to use as it would be for those with more experience.
. Includes an extra battery for additional playtime.

Cons

. Flight range isn’t as far as other drones in similar categories.
. Despite an extra battery, batteries must be charged frequently.
. Lacks some of the features that other drones have.

The S5C VS other drones

The Snaptain A15 Drone is another possible drone that consumers purchase. This drone boasts some of the same features, however, the A15 is foldable, increasing the ease of transporting the drone from place to place. Unlike the S5C, the A15 has the ability to be controlled using one finger, with its convenient and advanced fly-by-finger trajectory.

There is another Snaptain drone, the H823H. This drone is compact in size and is able to fit in the palm of the hand. This makes it popular among teenagers, due to the ease of transporting it. In addition, the H823H has a built-in battery, so there is no need to insert a battery; simply charge the unit itself before playing.

The H823H is more ideal for children, although the S5C is kid-friendly, as well. When it comes to price, the H823H is about $25, although it has similar features to the S5C and the A15. However, the H823H’s size and lack of features is likely the reason it’s so affordable.

In comparison to the RC Drone Folding Quadcopter Headless Mode Optical Flow Positioning Aircraft, which costs about the same price as the S5C, the RC is quite similar. One really notable difference is the fact that the RC consists of a very impressive “follow me” feature. Furthermore, the RC drone has a feature that enables it to be controlled via an optical flow-fixed system.

All-in-all, the S5C is quite an impressive and light weight drone. Not only does it boast a number of features that many other drones in the same category lack, but it is easy to use, even for children and others who may have never flown a drone before.
