It performs well in the air, has an impressive list of features, and has a decent build quality to it. It’s a little bulky and doesn’t always provide the smoothest ride, but you can’t expect everything from a drone at this price.

SNAPTAIN SP500 Review

The SP500 runs on brushed motors, which isn’t ideal. Brushed motors are typically less efficient and higher maintenance than their brushless counterparts. That being said, this is an entry-level camera drone at a very compelling price – there will be compromises. When the remote disconnects with the drone for more than 4s, and the GPS function is not available, the drone will slowly descend from the current altitude till landing.

Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment. This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.In the next part of Snaptain SP500 review is the flight performance of this camera drone. Getting to know how well a drone performs is just about as important as to choosing the right quadcopter for beginners. Starters and recreational remote pilots will enjoy 15 minutes of flight time per battery charge. It comes ready to fly, there is nothing for you to install, except for the battery and propeller guards. The propeller guards are for extra protection, and I highly recommend you use them, especially if you are new to flying drones.

For Remote: The device is in compliance with RF exposure guidelines, users can obtain Canadian information on RF exposure and compliance. The function of Follow me may have a deviation due to the GPS Signal. Please maintain a safe distance between you and the drone when enabling this function.The SNAPTAIN SP500 is a great beginner’s drone or for the more experienced users as well, it also has an affordable price and decent video quality. The SNAPTAIN SP500 also comes with various modes such as the “Follow Me” mode which is very useful, were the drone will follow you wherever you go. Do not expose the battery to extremely low air pressure, as this may result in an explosion or the leakage of flammable liquid or gas.
