The controller has two holes in the back that the bracket fits into and the piece that holds the screen fits around the antenna and then you use those two silver screw nuts that will hold it in place. Then you just push your screen into the slot, Also you have to press and hold the take off button until the motors start. I had to press mine several times before it actually worked but after that I did not have any other problems. The camera does take a descent video, so I am pleased with mine. Nice review.
Yeah - I was having all kinds of problems with that quad. Sounds like some of it was user error - although the instruction manual was terrible and didn't help much.
Normally I don’t like to read comments as they’re tend to be nothing but negative. However I’m very grateful to Gregory for his great advice. I was having trouble figuring out the monitor bracket as well. And ALMOST cut it like you did, until I read his comment and viola!!!
I REALLY like this quad. My biggest problem with it is the proprietary battery. I've looked all over online to see if I could find any and can't come up with anyone selling them. I'd buy the quad in a second if it had readily available spare parts to be found. Seems like a growing problem in the quadcopter market.
Just bought this drone in the 5.8ghz version. Comes with camera and fpv monitor and 4gb micro SD card for $125.00. I think thats a great deal. I was also able to find extra batteries on hobbywow.com, and ebay, from around $18, there are also motors on ebay for $6. So I have 3 batteries which give me a total of 45mins flying time. This is a toy grade borderline hobby grade quad, but this thing is amazing. Fly's great, position hold works, battery charges in about 2hrs, and long flight time. This is a good beginner quad, and I highly recommend it.
You can't control this drone with a phone. Also - generally, I find that flying a drone with a phone is not as much fun as flying with a standard transmitter.
u give very detailed and informative videos. I'm new to quadcopters, and charging these types of batteries. Could u make a video on how to charge the batteries cause I think I may have messed mine up or I'm just not doing it right. I have the Hubsan x4 desire, and the batteries aren't charging now. I use the charging cable that came with it, and I plug it into my USB charger for my cellphone. Thanks
We have done a couple of videos about LiPo batteries - check out the shorter one here. th-cam.com/video/ogb0DTqsZEs/w-d-xo.html The other one is longer and alot more detailed - th-cam.com/video/eKLHD7_zzCE/w-d-xo.html
Modifying the screen assembly was not necessary. You can check RC Saylors video and it clearly shows screen attached to square collar. The way you have it shown is backwards. It does not go through the handle.
I looked on Gearbest and saw in the comments on this quad that they don't offer them. That's why I don't like proprietary battery shapes. Makes it harder to charge and harder to get spare batteries! Otherwise it's a fun quad to fly, but the extra battery thing is a bummer! Thanks for your comment.
Does anyone know if the 5.8 gHz FPV monitor on the X300-F will work on the Bugs 2? I ask because I am looking at the Bugs 2 but my phone does not have 5.8 gHz.
I am not a fan of cardboard boxes. I found the perfect plastic box to carry my XK X300 F drone in. It is a MTM ACR8-72 Dark Earth Ammo Crate and you can buy it on Amazon for $19.99. I had to cut off 1 inch off the bottom of the styrofoam and then I placed some bubble wrap on the bottom of the crate. Then the entire contents slid perfectly into the crate. The crate is waterproof and has 2 latches.
The P4 Pro is better for filming. The Mavic Pro is better for portability. If you want to pack it into a small case go with Mavic. If you want the best video and don't care about the size, go P4 Pro. Thanks!
Looks nice good shape and everything but I'm not into brushed quads anymore brush less all the way,if only they made this brush less it be perfect I think.......peace

Some barometer altitude hold systems have problems with sun light, wonder if the XK would handle the same on a day that wasn't overcast and full sun?
mounting the bracket was simple with a little thinking, I the two pieces cover the top and bottom of the antenna then the big screws hold it together
The bracket for the small screen goes around the antenna ( pyramid shape) protruding from the remote control.
Yeah - I realize I was doing it wrong. But it's not very intuitive! Thanks for the tip!
for the auto takeoff press and hold button for 3sec motors will start and take off on its own
Thanks for the tip!

You always have very informative videos. I would love to see you do a review on the Traxxas Aton.
would you recommend getting a storm racing drone 127 rtf package from helipal for a first time flyer?
My first FPV quad was a RTF Storm racing drone from Helipal. It's a great quad!

the plastic pins are meant to be just slotted in while the two halves are held together with the hand screws
OK - thanks for the tip - I will go back and try again. I suspected that I might be doing something wrong!
Hey! Love the video. Sorry, this is probably a dumb question because I am a noob, but can you control this with a smart phone
You can't control this drone with a phone. Also - generally, I find that flying a drone with a phone is not as much fun as flying with a standard transmitter.

I've been wanting to get extra bats but can't seem to find any

you can get extra bats on ebay and/or amazon. I have five of them and they aren't to expensive. I think I paid 28 dollars each for mine.
I heve the phantom 4 pro whisch is the best mavic o phantom 4 pro?
edwin morales depends on you application which one is better for you
Hey can you please do some more tips for some drone
Do you mean tips on how to fly a drone? I so, check out this playlist: th-cam.com/play/PLhgh8iq8dbWT4ywXwugWXBdmdDFsyOGU0.html
I love my xk x300 very awesome flies great and flew with my fatsharks
Another great review
Does anyone know if the 5.8 gHz FPV monitor on the X300-F will work on the Bugs 2?
I ask because I am looking at the Bugs 2 but my phone does not have 5.8 gHz.
Dave G I used mine on my Hubsan. You need to experiment with the dip switches on the back to find the channel.
it does have auto take off you have to press and hold and auto land
I am not a fan of cardboard boxes. I found the perfect plastic box to carry my XK X300 F drone in. It is a MTM ACR8-72 Dark Earth Ammo Crate and you can buy it on Amazon for $19.99.

Awesome! I am a big fan of making cases like that for the drones - much better than cardboard! Thanks for the comment!
Auto Take Off/Landing must be done by "Press Hold" until the drone takes off or lands.
ok thank you
I like your tutorial vidios
Thanks for the video. I enjoyed it. From Will Mallen.
please tel me
The P4 Pro is better for filming. The Mavic Pro is better for portability. If you want to pack it into a small case go with Mavic. If you want the best video and don't care about the size, go P4 Pro. Thanks!
Looks nice good shape and everything but I'm not into brushed quads anymore brush less all the way,if only they made this brush less it be perfect I think.......peace
Yeah - I thought it was brushless given it's price and everything else about it. But it is brushed.
