This is my review of the Cheerson CX-10, which is the new World's Smallest Quadcopter, beating the Estes Proto X / Hubsan Q4 by just a tad! It flies great, flips great, and is just an all-around great little nano quad… I highly recommend this one, and the price is great!
Enjoy!

I've been practising with my CX10 and its surprisingly easy to fly. Im going to carry on flying it before moving on to bigger quads. Thanks for the review.
These little drones are awesome, I bought one myself and it arrived yesterday. We already have a mini drone but I was surprised at how much quicker and more durable this one is. It got hit by our ceiling fan, and went flying across the room and smashed into the wall. I was worried because I thought it would be dead but no! Apart from a little dent in the top of it's body it still works perfectly fine!
Got mine yesterday, instantly fall in love. It's sooo small, cute, great quality, simply, best quad ever. People, if you want to buy a quad, don't hesitate with this one, you will love it, before even remove the package!!!
Just got my CX-10 today and I love it. Second quadcopter in a month. Must be getting hooked on these quads now. :)
Firefoxfifty Welcome to the Quaddiction. :D
Banggood has them for 14,99 delivered. Mine took about 2-3 weeks to arrive. Loads of fun, best 15 bucks I ever spent.
Edwin Smits what 🤨
wow flyin ryan got mad subs :) i remember when he had like 500 :D
back in the days i was buying cx-10's too ! :) time flies! when you're flying
Awesome to see you're still at it flyin Ryan ! I got my first flying rc, a proto X about 5 months ago, stumbled upon your flying vids, learned about the hubsan x4 controller and have been flying ever since!!
I now actually work part time at a HobbyTown USA near Seattle, fly a Parkzone Visionaire and an MCPX BL and can knock out some very respectable 3d moves on both!! Hovers to rolling Harrier and tik tocs to (honestly sloppy) piro flips! I am also diving into fpv, I practice on my x4 and spyhawk and saving for long rang set up on a blackout, discovery or maybe a simple 350qx!
I want to say thanks man, I've come full circle and started flipping my proto x into the dog bowl and thought I'd check out ur vids again!
Keep up the awesome work!
Chad R Awesome! I still haven't delved much into 3D flight, but I've always been amazed by watching it. :)
I love your channel you don't just want views you actually want people to get into drones love the channel
Great review! Funny you said that about cutting down props from other micro quads...I had to do just that a few days ago when I crashed one time too many and ran out of working props! I just took one of those useless v272s and jacked it for an extra prop! Lol
Frequent Flyer RC Finally, something the V272 is good for! lol :)~
Awesome ... looks easy to control and is cheap as chips. A good starting point for beginners before moving on to the big boys... thanks for the video demo !!!
Techgeek Plus its easy to bring with you to places.
Techgeek If you're flying a quite large quad then transitioning to this one, it's a big adjustment. As the acceleration of this quad is quicker than you think. I broke a propeller because it was my first time flying these thinger magiggers.
Just saw it on FB and I'm really excited about this little flyer! My son would love to watch something like this, and the price is well within almost any budget.
jack suquett Yeah, you really can't go wrong for the price!
hey.. just wanted top say thanks for all the reviews, and the thoroughness!!
very useful when shoppin around for stuff like this.
WatchFor Piranha Glad you find them helpful! :)
Love this quad, first time ever using a quad, it was hard at first but once I knew how to fly with it it became really nice to fly! :D
How does it fly
@@michael_blais lmao, it flies great. Actually still have it somewhere.
Sorry I mean how long does it fly and how long does it take to charge
@@michael_blais not so long, few minutes. I'd say around 10 maybe, and go charge 20, just guessing. These reviews will say more accurate timings.
@@siimsimsiim lmao, he replied 5 years late and never even said thankyou
The funniest part about it is that I don't even think he knows he is a bit late 😂
Got mine today. What can I say: An amazing little thing!
Very easy to control, great fun to play with.
BTW: 15 min charging for almost 5 min of flight IMO is quite good.
Bottom line: Great deal for the price and a perfect entry model for every newbie out there.
And boy, is it TINY!!
Thanks a lot for your reviews! They helped me to choose the right thing. :)
Michael Kiesel Glad to hear that! :)
do not use it right away after charging ive been told. the guys at the rc store told me not to, they say let it cool down for like 20mins before using it again. or you will loose battery life... anyone else heard of this?
explosiverounds have to admit that i don't wait after charging. it's just too tempting to fly again right away.
but it's true: these tiny LiPo batteries have to take a lot - during flight as well as during charging.
my advice: don't fly until the copter is completely "dead" but stop (and recharge) as soon as it doesn't want to climb anymore. then recharge completely and disconnect when done. store only in charged condition.
explosiverounds Michael Kiesel Proper LiPo maintenance is to let the battery cool for 10-15min after a flight, and maybe 5min after charging (the battery doesn't get that hot from charging). And, yes, stop flying when LVC warning kicks in (or you notice a significant loss in power). And you should leave the battery at 3.85V (about half-full) when stored for any long period of time. If you store it fully charged, or drained, the battery can become damaged and lose power.
Flyin' Ryan RC thx for the info!
and Merry XMas :)
Lovin your vids Ryan. Easy to listen to. You don't ramble too much and you know your stuff. Great that you have so many quads and therefore can do a lot of comparisons.
Brett Boughton Thanks Brett! :D
Flyin' Ryan RC Bought a green Cheerson cx-10 - now I'm hooked. Damn you Ryan :P
Brett Boughton Welcome to the QUADDICTION. :)~
Added a propeller guard to my Cheerson CX-10. Great investment, helps protect propellers and even seems to make it more stable in the air.
I just bought my own, can't wait until it arrives.
How is it?
nerdsrsmarticle Good, but it's a bit hard to trim and control because i'm used to helicopters.
+Cairo Murphy (TheMasterAssassin8787) I would recommend this blog, he has a very helpful guide for how to fly a quadcopter. quadcopter101.blogspot.com/
***** Thanks:)
+Cairo Murphy (TheMasterAssassin8787) you can get it for 25 bucks from kmart
I got one of these to mess around with the pets. The dog has grabbed it out of the air a number of times, broken through the shell on both top and bottom. Almost pierced the battery pack. And it's taken a lot of hits and falls.
Because of one fall the latch for the case over one motor has broken off halfway, so the case sits a bit higher on that arm because of it. Twisted the propellers a lot, mainly from the dog's bite.
All that damage and this cheap little thing still flies perfectly.
I now taped up the 4 bases under each motor with a soft sticky pad under it and wrapped it up using cellophane tape for less weight and a bit of electrical tape to hold it tight around each motor case. This allows for softer landings but does take a little off the flight time.
In all it's a great cheap way to learn. And definitely worth the $25.
If this had been one of the $40 models it would have broke several times by now.
The full shell makes all the difference. Even if it is cheap plastic.
Anon Mason Hahaha nice! :)
Flyin' Ryan RC Y dont you just paint the props with the colours you want :P
vignesh sivakumar I could, but I review things as they come "out-of-the-box" and it is something worth noting. :) Besides, they now sell spare props with two colored props, so I think that proves my review right. ;)
Cool so they have listened to your reivew :)
vignesh sivakumar Possibly! :D
Thanks bro , I just ordered one and I really can't wait for it hopefully I don't get disappointed.
Awesome video! I bought mine the moment I saw your video, and just flew it today. This thing is AMAZING!!!!
Arjun Mehta Cool, glad you like it! :)
I have the pink one =) I love it so much it's so cute. I'm having a hard time flying it (first time quadcopter) but it's still fun!
Zelda00Gamer Glad you like it! Check out this video of mine for some tips to help you learn how to fly: czcams.com/video/N4qJNgV0DGI/video.html
i charged mine and i switched it on and the lights started flashing and the motors turned like for half a second when i gave it throttle now when i turn it on nothing happens no lights or anything i tried charging it again it took 10 seconds for it to finish and i tried again and still nothing no lights or anything
Flyin' Ryan RC should I bye a cx-10 or not
Japanna are you a trap?
am i the only one that finds it cute?
Bill383 Not at all. :)
nope, it's adorable :)
Yes it’s so cute I want to piss on it

Awesome video! I'm new to the whole micro flying RC world and I picked up two of these little babies before even knowing anything about them. Your video was super informative. Thanks for sharing!
Matt Jasionowski Glad you liked it. :)
Great outdoors in a light wind great fun cheers Ryan
interesting how all these guys that got cheaper prices never share links :)
Duuuude! you are so good at flying it, for me it is really hard, I can't keep it stable haha
morrisman93 Thanks! Here are my tips for beginners, to help you get started flying: czcams.com/video/N4qJNgV0DGI/video.html
I saw it and everything went better until the drone fell and one of the propellers is not working anymore :( can you help me? It just arrived yesterday and it doesn't work anymore .(
morrisman93 In what way is it not working? If it is not spinning, then you might have killed the motor. If it is not creating lift, then you likely have the wrong pitch prop on.
its the motor cause its not spinning
morrisman93 might not be the motor, try to lift the prop a bit
I bought one of these and was pretty impressed so I bought a second one. Both fly great. Even flies great outdoors on calm days/nights. Flew mine outdoors last night and sent it up pretty high. BE careful though, range is about 80 -90 feet. THing is so tiny you'll hardly see it at 50 ft.
I lost my *Hubsan X4* man :(
Waiting for my new one to arrive !!!
***** Oh no! :(
it would be cool if it had some sort of nano camera on it and a screen or a phone attactment on the controller
soccer star they have it but no fpv
+DA AUTHENTIC HACKER which one has it?

now thay have a FPV
I got mine today and the cx-10 is incredible! Very nice, very stable and very fast!
Gringo Hys Glad you like it! :)
I just got this for Christmas (today) without even asking for it. Seems pretty cool, charging it up!

Hey quad God! I took mine for a flight and a hawk attack it! Wish I a video of it! Both survived. :)
George Hopper Oh man, that would've been awesome to get on video! :D
Man that would have been the awesomest thing on the internet!
Just ordered one of these...can't wait!
This is really a cool toy. When I first got it I just needed to pair and trim the quadcopter, and it's ready to fly. I purchased the pastel blue version for SGD24.50 and I never regretted buying it.

Thank you so much 😊
Maaaan am I late to the party, but my CX-10 arrived right along side a new Hubsan Q4. (My Estes Syncro is getting a bit beaten up)
While the Q4 is cool and a good flyer, the CX-10 is REALLY cool and a REALLY good flyer!
I'm still using prop guards while I acquire more flying skills but the CX-10 guard is cheap insurance and the thing still flies well with it on.
I can see why there are so many clones of this flyer...or it it a clone of something else?
Only you would know! LOL
***** The CX-10 is the original. :D And, yes, it is awesome, and unreal for the price! :)
remember having one of these this was my first nano quad copter as a little kid super fun when that time lasted
Hey Ryan I've just found out that if you have an OTG cable the power draw is low enough that you can charge it with your phone and it takes the same amount of time as if from the wall. This makes this quad truly portable as you only need your quad the charger and an OTG cable and not have to carry around a power bank if your far away from an outlet.
That guy is soooo small lol. I think I picked up a clone of this at the hobby store-looks all the same except the logo.
RCdeparture Frequent Flyer RC Oh nice, I didn't know there were any clones yet. Let me know if it seems to fly as well as this version, Jon! :)
I bought mine at 11 dollars in blue, and orange is 10 dollars

I broke my Cheerson - CX-10 in less than 5 min. :-(
Karen Elizabeth Bummer. :( In what way did it break?
Flyin' Ryan RC It wouldn't take off without flying sharply to the left or right, so I crashed it a couple times and busted a blade. After I replaced the blade, the copter won't take off at all.
And yeah, the joystick for throttle is very sensitive. You had the right idea putting the extenders on.
Karen Elizabeth Ah, you likely put on the wrong pitched blade! There are two different types of blades, so you have to be sure to replace a blade with one with the same pitch. Whichever blade you replaced, compare it with the blade diagonal from it… they should have the same pitch. Hope that helps get you back in the air! As for flying hard to the left or right, try recalibrating the accelerometer on a flat level surface. I discuss how to do that somewhere around the 6:30 mark in this video, if I recall correctly.
Flyin' Ryan RC OK... :-O Whooooaaa it's flying again, THANKS! :-D The instructions are in engrish and make no mention whatsoever of how to replace the blades.
It still takes off way too fast, though.
Karen Elizabeth Glad that helped! You will get more familiar with throttle control as you practice, so keep flying! :D
now that ive seen it im FORCED to buy it!!!!
@ツNxvvy yup still works as good today as it did 4 years ago.
Feeling nostalgic of your videos I hope you are fine! I like going out at night and fly a CX10...
Truly a great video! Very informational and I think I will pick one of these up now. I subscribed. Please keep it up!
Cent E Glad you liked it! And thanks for subscribing! :D Plenty more videos to come. :)
:D Like
XxMegaVideosxX Thanks. :)
Hey Ryan, mine just arrived today and its so small and fast and durable it hit the walls a lot and it still flies good. I also used a nerf dart to made improvised landing boots.
Brian James Fadol It's an awesome little quad. :)
I love your channel! I subbed and your videos are very entertaining! Keep doing this man, and I am also getting the Silverlit Nano because of you, so thanks.
Marcus Griego Thanks, I'm glad you like my videos! :D
Thanks 4 The Tips...I Actually Fly My Little Cheerson CX10 With Some "Asprey Blades" Off Of A "Propel Proton"...They Fit Right On & Up The Performance a Bit...See You Guys
Waiting for mine to arrive, plus a load of spares :) Can't wait looks really smooth.
olatron Hope you like it. :)
Hi Ryan, So I was doing some shopping with GearBest and I happen to see that their using your video for Cheerson cx10. How awesome! You the Man! Actually They have them on sale right now.
Kazz- Mann Yep, I gave them permission to do that. :) Thanks! :)
Finally got my cx 10, this thing is awesome! Glad u suggested it!
Hey Ryan I'm having pairing issues with my cheerson, the lights come on but it doesn't flash do you have any ideas?
Itty bitty titty commity Weird, someone else was just talking about having the same issue. I have no idea what could cause that. My only suggestions would be to try new batteries in the transmitter, try turning the transmitter on first, and then the quad, and vise versa, and maybe turn off any 2.4ghz devices that might be causing interference.
Okay I'll give it a shot thanks
Itty bitty titty commity did you figure out the pairing issue? Friends one doing same thing
Hey Ryan...Thanks for the cool reviews. They're giving me the insight I need before making my first quad purchase.
Will probably go with this little fella (CX-10) just to build my confidence.
Lee Cross Thanks, I'm glad you find them helpful! A nano quad actually isn't the best to learn on, as they can be twitchy and harder to fly than bigger quads, actually. I generally suggest the UDI U816A as a learner. It is cheap, relatively easy to fly, and well-protected, so you can crash it all over the place without worry about hurting it or anything else. :)
Flyin' Ryan RC I see your point...A larger quad will provide increased stability.
I've had a fair bit of experience with coaxial micro heli's, so hopefully should be able to get to grips with a nano quad reasonably quickly? 'Hopefully'! Lol
Will check out your recommended model, thanks again. ;-)
Lee Cross In that case, I think you would probably do decently well with this as your first quad. :)
Flyin' Ryan RC I'd like to eventually work up through the Blade series of quads...They are just awesome little flyers!
Lee Cross Yeah, they are my favorites. :)
Ryan, thanks for you reviews.
Walter Clark Thanks, glad you appreciate them! :)
Thanks for this video! Just ordered myself one! I love your videos.
Colby Collins Thanks! Hope you enjoy the CX-10. :)
Thanks for video. One more quadcopter I want to try.
Well I must say, after flying this thing everyday over and over, this thing takes a beating, I fly it outdoors a lot and I think because the mass is so low it just doesn't take any damage. I've crashed it into trees, had it bounce off the side of the house and land on cement, the props just have very minor scuffs. My only complaint is I wish the yaw sped up a little as the rates go up, I also wish there was yaw trim, but other than that I absolutely love it. The 15min charge time makes it so much fun. Also to note, mine came in a plain jane white box like your H1 Mini Ninja.
Anyway thanks for recommending it Ryan!
A- Wall Awesome, glad you are happy with it! :) And, yeah, I've heard these are being repackaged in plain boxes, because people were complaining about the plastic cases getting smashed in shipping. :/
Got a set of 4 of these today (I live in China, took 2 days to get here :P) and they're great fun. So tiny! I'm terrible at flying them, though - finding it really hard to find that throttle magic spot where it just hovers and isn't gradually rising or falling. Need a lot more practice.
Thanks for the video, you're much clearer than the crappy instructions!
kinggimped Haha, glad my video helped. :) There isn't really that magic spot… you kind of always have to work the throttle in order to maintain elevation. The quad will hold its elevation on its own for maybe a couple seconds, but pilot input will always be required to maintain it for longer than that.
Thanks for replying Ryan. Sounds like I'll need a lot of practice. I realised after my first charge and rewatching your video that I'd been using it on the fastest speed setting, so that probably was why I was finding it so hard to control. Even on the first setting though, I'm finding it really difficult to control, but then this is my first quad.
The way you fly it around so expertly in the video makes it seem so effortless! I have a long way to go before I'll be able to keep it airborne for longer than 5-10 seconds without it crashing a wall.
Quick question, where can I get those stick extensions, and how do I fit them? I assume I have to take apart the remote and replace the bits, since it's all cheap plastic?
kinggimped I think you will be surprised at how fast you get the hang of it... keep practicing and you will be flying like me soon enough! :) Just take it slow and easy and try to get a feel for one thing at a time. As for the stick extensions, you just pull off the thumbpads and stick the extension onto the nub, and then put the thumbpads back onto the extension. You can get them here: www.ebay.com/itm/Estes-Proto-X-Nano-Quadcopter-CONTROL-STICKS-MADE-IN-USA-/221374749889?pt=Radio_Control_Parts_Accessories&hash=item338af69cc1
There is a discount store selling these for $35 here in New Zealand. They were a lot more a year ago, so I think I'll get one before they sell out. I still love my $25 Kmart nano. It lost a motor a few weeks ago and I was actually able to transplant a motor from an busted nano to get it going again. So cheap and repairable.
They are $15 on Amazon.
I've got a green one, just like in the video. Lots of fun. My 4yo loves it--he doesn't fly it, he just watches. Great little drone.
It's a pretty cheap drone, so i don't think it would break the bank if he breaks it, unless he thinks the quadcoptor is like alien space-ship or something otherwise it humourous
He's got a little Air Hog's drone he plays with around the house. Really likes it.
does it has camera?
Mine just arrived with the postman! Charging as we speak :)
Well done review! We will test now a similar quadcopter from carson called nana 2.4
Thanks for the review I got one for my self and LOOOOOOOVVEEEE IT
Nice. It's funny, I just ordered my yesterday and you came out with the review today. I feel more comfortable with my purchase now. Thanks lol I ordered a orange one and if I really like it I'm going to get a green one too.
mannu79 I think you will like it. :)
Mine fell in a cup of tea and it still works
I just got Mine today I can’t get it to fly it’s only going at one angle along the ground any idea ?? Thanks how do u know if the propellers are on the right way too
Just got mine in the mail today and it is unbelievably small!
A- Wall Yeah, you can't really imagine how small it is until it's right there in your hand. :)
What is the controlling distance?
And one more question.
If i attach big antenna (military grade) to the remote controler, could all RC drones be controlled on bigger distance?
+GamePlayShare No idea. I don't test range and I don't condone long-range flying. You should keep it close and safe.
You sir have just earned yourself a subscriber.
Shawn O'Brien Thanks, I really appreciate that! :)
So do any of these tiny little quads come with a camera? What's cheapest one smallest one that comes with a camera?
BUILT DIESEL MAFIA 1 No, nano quads are too small to lift a camera. The smallest are micro quads, like the Hubsan X4 H107C.
I got the same one today it's real easy to get used to and fun to mess with
Just got mine and had a couple of flights with it, absolutely amazing little quad! I would say though that the problem you had in the video after the flip where it went unstable, has happened to me twice already. After a flip it will on occasion lose its calibration and veer off. I am certainly more reluctant to flip this little thing because of it.
MattZildjian Has it done that for you after one flip, or does it only happen after several consecutive flips?
Just got one today they are really fun and easy to use Nice Review!!!!
AssassinCraft Thanks! And I'm glad you're enjoying your quad. :)
Nice review. I might get one for my brother
Should i get this or the Gin H7 with the prop guards, they are the same price but the cheerson doesnt have the guards and I dont want to break the props or drone
Love your vids! Your really good at RC toys👍😉👌
Thanks! :D
how do you make the quad spin like that?
Congratulations on 1,000,000 views :)
Pleakly Unleashed Thanks! :D
Thanks for your quick answer.
i have a question. some people have said that the micro drone battery dont work after 3 days. i wont to get one but i dont want to have to replace the battery in the first week. can u tell me if its true, also when its fully chared how long does it last?
i had a proto-x, it smoked a motor ,It did fly good ,got over 40 flights before the right rear motor stopped working
Ok. Thanks a lot for quick reply I would definitely buy it. Have reviewed x11
Nice review :) , how do we change the motors or the battery when the damage ?
Do you need to aim the drone with the controler to let the drone fly?. I m sorry if i write something wrong but i m spanish.
What do the little UP/DOWN and LEFT/RIGHT buttons do next to the sticks?
Those are the trim buttons. I cover the basics like that in this video: czcams.com/video/N4qJNgV0DGI/video.html
Thnaks for you review!!!! Regards from Mexico!!!!

I need some help! One of my blades broke sadly. How do I remove it? I tried pulling on it and that did not work. Can you help me?
That's amazing! "Hands-off" on even a much larger Udi would make a bee-line for a wall!
Hugh Hemington This thing is steady as a rock. :)
like the way u make it seem so easy to fly i still having trouble with mine
+Carlos Avalos Keep practicing and you'll be as good as me before you know it! :)
I bought a blue one of these and an orange one from your GearBest link with the coupon code. Unfortunately the orange one came with a mode-1 transmitter (I didn't even know such a thing existed when I made the purchase) and it looks like they are claiming all the orange ones come that way. I looked at Banggood and they let you pick what mode, but I saw no indication of mode on GearBest. Anyway, I was just wondering if you knew of any possible solution. I can't seem to get it to bind with the blue mode-2 transmitter, so maybe it just can't bind with other transmitters?
I absolutely love my little orange CX10. IMO it blows the ProtoX out of the water in build quality, flips, flight and price. I picked mine up for $18 and some change. I really like the green also, I'll be adding it to my collection.
edit: I just ordered the green :)
Dubbin1 It really is quite an impressive little nano. And I just love the bright green! I have one of each of the other colors on the way too. Figured I'd get the whole set. haha
You are awesome drone pilot!
I want one!
hey man! i just orderd one i can't wait :)
Connor Foreman Cool, hope you like it! :)
Is there another transmitter I can bind it with? The one it comes with is too small
Very nice review! Big fan :)
Aaron S Thanks! :)
