Review of Cheerson CX-10



Unboxing

When you hear people talking about nano quadcopters then you may be thinking of this one.  It has been around for a very long time, it is flown indoors and out, by children and adults alike.  The Cheerson CX-10 is very cheap quadcopter coming in between £8 - £12 that provides hours of fun.  Its packaging is easy to open with one small sticky tab to open.  On the inside the box consists of one moulded plastic insert in which sits the quadcopter, the transmitter is underneath the copter and the accessory bag consisting of 1 x USB cable (for charging) and 4 replacement propellers.  

Flight



In order to fly the quadcopter you will need to first charge it which will take between 30-45 minutes using the provided USB cable, the transmitter doesn’t allow charging so standard ‘AAA’ batteries are needed.   The quadcopter binds to the transmitter in seconds and on first try.  In flight, the copter responds well albeit it is very difficult to see when flying so dont go too far.  The transmitter range is between 30-50 feet (at best) it responds very quickly with every push of the controller analogue sticks.  The battery lasts for a modest 7 minutes before the quadcopter falls graciously to the ground.  

Overall 6/10
