Flying Practice With The New MJX X600 Hexacopter
The MJX X600 X-SERIES 2.4G 6-Axis Hexacopter is coming to Banggood very soon. So this week a few of us went out for a photoshoot and some flying practice to try it out. Aldo from our promotions team was giving us a few beginners’ tips on photography, as well supervising me trying out the X600 as I’m still a developing flyer. It was my first time flying a hexacopter but I did alright and our nice new MJX X600 survived.
I kept fairly low and was generally pretty cautious. The X600 has a 3 different modes from beginner to advanced, so I pretty much stuck to the lowest level which moves quite slowly actually. My flying mentor showed it off a bit better although found the quad doing rolls too easily (without really intending it too) on the highest setting.
The overall design of the X600 is quite nice. It comes in black or white, and looks pretty smart in either, although I personally prefer black. The on/off switch is on the top of the quad which means you don’t have to fumble around underneath for easy use.
There are some nice features on this quad, which are highlighted below on the guide to the transmitter. As well as the beginner, intermediate and advanced flying levels I mentioned, there is also a dial to limit the power of the throttle, good to control your flying depending on your experience and the environment in which you’re flying.
There’s a headless mode option so it it won’t matter in which direction you’re standing in relation to the hexacopter, a convenient flip/role button to show off some acrobatics with ease, and also a one button return function to easily get it back to you, (although we didn’t try this in the little car park we were using to try it.
The MJX600 also gives the option of four modes modes in choosing the functions of the main controls, so you can control the throttle, direction and rotation as you wish.
The LED’s on the underneath make the X600 good for night flying, and the two at the back are red so you can keep orientated in low light.
Overall I think it’s a pretty decent hexacopter, it allows for good control and stability on the intermediate level but not sure it would be great for doing exactly what you want if you want to be racing around through the air on full speed. It was also caught by the wind a bit too at times it’s difficult to say whether this was down to the wide flat structure or just the conditions.
Thanks to the 700mAH battery, within 2 hours you’ll be charged up and will get around a decent 10 minutes of flight time. Also included in the kit are spare propellers, propeller guards, and landing gear but don’t forget to check out adding on a camera to get the most out of the X600.
