We’ll start off by reviewing a cute little RC bugger for beginners: at a mere 60 Dollars, the Hubsan X4 H107C gives you a sporty flight experience and the opportunity to record great-looking video.
This micro quad weighs just under 50 grams, which is still a bit heavier than equally-sized competitors (more on that later), and fits in the palm of your hand. Out of the box, it comes with pretty much everything you need to take off:
- Battery
- USB cable
- Extra rotors
- Manual
- Transmitter
In addition to the whole system, we recommend you get a micro SD card for your digital videos, and four AAA batteries for the transmitter.
We found that the H107C’s rotors are quite delicate, and we recommend being very careful with them. It’s great to have the extra rotors out of the box, but you don’t want to have to use them right off the bat.
If you want to protect the little guy while bumping into things (between us: you do), definitely mount the included blade protector: you’ll need to look to find it, but it’s in the box! It’s attached to the bottom of the packaging.
And, before we go any further, a word about the manual: it’s not the most helpful. You may want to check out a few of the useful tutorials available on Youtube before you reach for the sky with this little dude.
