Skywalker V323 RC Hexacopter Finding a great product to expand your quadcopter collection or maybe to start one could be a headache and there is no denying this. This is because there are a lot of different drones on the market place, all claiming to be superb. In return, this causes it to be hard to actually find the most suitable, but don’t worry, because you are not alone.


Research is a core factor in picking the right product. I personally enjoy learning more about the different quadcopters on the market place

I love researching on different drones on the market and then I return and report my findings to my readers (I refer to it as giving you guys/girls a helping hand). Recently, I have discovered the Skywalker V323 and want to share my thoughts with you.

Description of the Skywalker

The Skywalker V323 RC Hexacopter is a large sturdy quadcopter than provide fun for everyone. Produced by WLToys it’s crafted from durable ABS plastic and features no lower than 6 motors. The 6 blades are protected by shell crafted from moulded foam which absorbs impact rendering it easy and stable to fly. It’s powered by a fullymax 1600 mAh 7.4 V litium polymer battery, and comes ready to fly right out of the box.

Benefits and Features

The Skywalker V323 has a flying time of 9-12 minutes on full charge, with full charge taking 90-120 minutes to reach.

It comes equipped with a lithium polymer rechargeable battery and charger.

It features a flying radius of 100-150m.

The package also features a 4 channel 2.4 GHz transmitter.

Benefits and Drawbacks

Searching for a quality product can be difficult as all come along with pros and cons. The Skywalker V323 is no different. The core pro with this product relates directly to its size. The huge nature of the product means it’s easy to see what it’s doing while airborne, and it has incredible horse power. The ready to fly feature means even beginners can get the V323 into a stable hover without too much practice. The design is very stylish and repair parts and upgrades are readily available so the investment is not lost if any parts are lost or broken. It also has the ability to carry cameras such as a GoPro with close to no performance loss.

There are also some cons to this product, when it’s flying at eye level it’s quite difficult to tell which direction the drone Hexacopter is facing making navigation tricky. It also has a very slow yaw rate which may be an annoyance to more accomplished hobbyists. If the product is run at full throttle, the motors are also prone to overheating and failure. As well as, the product does not come with a GPS system so watching it is imperative, it will fly become lost to view if you let it.

Conclusion

This product is ready to be flown straight out of the box, however due to the sheer size of the product, beginner hobbyists may find it difficult to keep under control. I would recommend this product to intermediate flyers looking for a more relaxed product to enjoy rather than as a racing Hexacopter.
