This is a nano quadcopter that stores in the transmitter, charges from the transmitter, and even stores extra parts in the transmitter as well!
Enjoy!

I`ve had mine for about 2 months. It still flies great, never had to change the props. Don`t use prop-guards. The battery still works like new. I had a Cheerson CX10 and this flies just as good in my opinion. This is well worth the $16.99 I paid for it. Great for inside flying! Can`t go wrong buying this one!
Thanks for confirmation
Man I used to watch your channel all the time! A true legend in the rc community. I saved my money up to buy this drone when i was about 9 after watching this video over and over again. Sadly i lost it in a tree immediately after flying it outside for the first time. I was devastated 😂
Mine jus arrived today, and this thing is awesome! The short thumb pads are adressed with having including sticks! I first flew it stock because I was very excited. After taking a look at the some of the extras, I was very relieved to find sticks because it just makes its so much better! Very fun quad to fly, and it seems that it is meant to fly with the extras on. So far so good! Love this quad!
Great review. I prefer this over the cx-10. It's now my fav indoor flyer. I find it's less twitchier than the cx-10, more durable and I like that if you let go the controls it doesn't have the momentum of the cx-10 and pulls up quicker.
Mine also came with a mini screwdriver to unscrew the top to put the battery’s in
From a consumer of rc toys this is a great drone to play around with and not crushing it with the case unlike the cx10
This thing is an awesome buy. Flies well and is super portable and was really cheap. Mine came with extra sticks for pinching too
Ryan,
This was a great demo you did, I've watched several different reviews for pocket drones. I started with the quark as a impulse buy then came across your video thankfully, after a lot of research and many videos I decided as a beginner to go with the fq777-124 and it honestly flys like a dream, I am having a little trouble getting it to hover without moving left to right, but this thing flys exactly as shown and explained right out of the box. Mine actually came with pinch sticks to replace the little sticks that are difficult to use. Keep doin this because it is very very helpful - Im looking to get really good with this before upgrading to a bigger camera drone haha. Thanks again for your reviews!
+Brett Bishop Glad you find my reviews helpful! The drifting you mentioned sounds like it could be normal... quads will always drifting around a bit, without GPS, and the smaller they are, the more prone to that they are.
The landing gear are sweet...like a nano X5C. The two sets of props = awesome, if only all micros and nanos did this. Too bad about the transmitter sticks, I'm to the point of no longer dealing with thumb pads. Another perfect review by Ryan.
People commented that now the Sbegos come with thumb extensions INCLUDED in the carrying case :)
Just to let anyone interested know, i got one of these delivered today and it now seems to include swappable long control sticks so there are very few cons to this little drone now. Must have watched your review Ryan.
+StarAquatics :D :D :D
+StarAquatics lol, thats awesome
you keep a nice, tidy and clean kitchen. plus you can fly quads very nicely in a limited space. Cool
John j.
+John Wedrall Thanks! It's nice to hear that, because you would not believe how many negative comments I get about my kitchen, because it's an old and small house, and people can't tell how clean my kitchen actually is. :( And I've been flying for about 10 years, mostly indoors, so I've gotten quite good at flying in small areas. And that also helps me show the model off on camera better by keeping it close to the camera, and well-lit. :)
This one is my second nanocopter. I was waiting for you to review this but i couldnt wait and ordered anyway :D
Yes , just like you , i too get confused with the lights considering my first nano copter was CX-10. Since my CX-10 doesnt fly well , I went ahead ordered this one.
One of the main reason choosing this one was all-in-one package. Extra blades , landing legs , prop guard and compact size. But I think CX-10 did fly better but just by a bit.
Removing the prop guards can be a pain at times. Though they fit securely but removing them aint that easy.
Worlds best bang for your buck right here.
No camera on IT
@@AtticTapes14 got this for 10 bucks....can't beat it
Flyin' Ryan you inspired my love for quadcopters. I watched your video on accident and loved it (good work by the way :) ) so I bought this quad: FQ777-124 Pocket Drone and it is an awesome little Nano quad. Thanks so much for the inspiration!
+Fullgamer Productions Glad to hear that! :D If you don't mind me asking, how did you come across my video on accident? Just curious about what ways my videos are reaching new audiences. :)
+Flyin' Ryan RC I was looking up Helicopter tests because I used to fly helicopters (and I still do a little bit) and your video about a quadcopter came up so I was curious about it and I watched it, loved it, then bought the quad. Thanks again! :)
Fullgamer Productions Great, thanks for sharing your experience! :D
+Flyin' Ryan RC Your welcome!:)
I just picked up one of these today in the mall and it does indeed come with peg style sticks to replace the little flat type pegs. They were located in the back of the transmitter.
Just impulse brought one of these, because it does mode 1, not sure if mine is a later version but you can switch it now between mode 1 and mode 2, basically hold the throttle stick push button as you power up the Tx for mode 1, and turn the Tx upside down!! It now also comes with sticks for pinchers, or just for more res. I find it flies better than the CX10, and the price has gone up...which I usually find means its a good product (my smallbolt boat has doubled in price, so no longer a bargain ).
In short, I'm very happy with it. it's usurped my q4 in about 30 seconds ;-)
I have the black one and I love it. I fly it the most out of my little guys. nice review man, thanks for your efforts.
Next to the CX10, the crowd seems to like this one better than you do, Ryan. And all for $16! Sounds like it's worth ordering just for the helluvit. (And I'm glad to see that Elsie is well stocked with canned food...)
+Powell Scott I don't see this as being obviously better, or worse, than the CX-10... they seem quite similar to me. That being said, that means that I do like this quad, especially the way it stores inside the transmitter. The short sticks being hard to use for a pincher like me is really the only major negative. :) (Hehe, I had just recently stocked the food... and I also have another cat, so all that food isn't just for Elsie alone. lol)
+Powell Scott Now people are saying that this actually does come with sticks now, so it seems they have already fixed my main complaint. :)
My wfie got this for me on xmas. I love it. The landing gear comes off pretty easy. Mine may be a rip off version because it came in a white box that said maid in china. I clicked on your vid because I was trying to figure out the model. It hovers really well till you get down to half the battery. Then i need to increase a little more throttle. I didn't even know it turned! The throttle stick moves up and down very easy I didnt know it moved left to right.
Glad my video helped you learn a bit more about it. :)
They now come with pinchers, my 1st quad :3
Thanks for the review man, I love them :D
Did you order from banggood?
My brother got this for his birthday and had it returned by the end of the week
I have the same and have no problems with it. funny little drone. only, if my lights go flashing, after exact 5 minutes, I've to hurry up for a landing place (my first drone). for usual I'm a heli guy but even there small. 120 size and a rex 250 pro from align (3GX). this birds you can not smash in a corner, unless you want to spend a lot of time on your workingbench. Good Luck!
legs are probably to help with hard landings. A little extra protection.
Pretty nice package. Weird about the yaw though.
They've upgraded the pack with replacement sticks for the controller as well as all the other stuff now. Just got mine from banggood for about $10 including shipping.
wow this costs only 14 bucks? I expected it to cost way more, considering how advanced the controller is.
xxBlackpspxx no that's the micro drone atom 1.0,the one in the video is pretty much the same thing
well the atom 1.0 costs a lot the one in the video is the same but cheaper
Here just 13.29 USD

At Walmart’s website for a limited time they have it for about $10 just $4/$5 cheaper
Best little package ever, only thing I have changed are the thumb pads. I have used the cheerson pads much better.I find with the prop guards it fly's much better for me. Always take it along when traveling, lots of fun at the airport while waiting too board the flight. People wanting too know where too buy it.
Cant wait til i get home, i got mine delivered today
+jdinky3 Haha interesting timing! :)
LUCKY !!!
How is it
I like your voice. Your voice is so calm
Thanks! :)
My quadcopter is coming in two to six daysCan't wait FYIso excitedAnd the cost is not to expensive
This is strange but last night I tried binding again and it worked no problem! The ONLY different thins I did was to turn on the quad first and then the transmitter. Would that make a difference? I don't know but that is the only thing I changed, After watching a lot of your reviews, I noticed that you turn on the quad first so I tried it and it worked. Regardless of the reason, it works fine now so I'm happy again. Go figure!!!
+John Bunegru Yeah, I have found that tends to work better, even though for hobby-grade RCs it is recommended to turn on the transmitter first. I think maybe if you turn on the transmitter first, there is a tendency for them to get confused by other 2.4ghz signal (like WiFi) in the air, or something like that.
This one, and the S1102 are my favorites, something about that controller storage.
I even have a ASID S6 (syma clone?) that came with a nice storage case which i modified to hold a small
usb battery bank.
I even keep one in my trunk now, it gets used most randomly!
best mosquito drone
especially on the night flying with high speed, the led is awesome :D
event mjx x800/syma x5hw speed loose to this one in outdoor :D
charge +-20minutes for +-4,5 minutes fly :D
Price is Rp. 200.000 Indonesia
OR $16
this is the one I order and got it order from ebay so yea can't wait to check it out and see this will be my first drone so I figure I start small and see if I like it or nt all the reviews sounds amazing I paid 20.00 with shipping and should be here early next week
omgoodness!! I just received it in 3 days after ordering it through Amazon prime. this little nano is amazing! it's so easy to fly! I don't know why but I feel it's easier to control than my syma x5c-2. I bought a 9.00 3000 mah portable charger with 2.1a and it charges it ready to fly in like 5 minutes!
thanks for your awesome review. it was my deciding factor.. and also the second quad I bought based off of you and frequent flyers reviews... the second being the syma x11 hornet. :)
+Bokushingu Hmm, the charging source shouldn't affect the charge speed at all... that is determined by the charger. And, a faster charge is actually a bad thing when it comes to overall battery life... fast charging will kill the battery. Glad you're liking it though, and that my reviews helped in your choices! :)
+Flyin' Ryan RC hmm I'll charge it to just regular USB port to see how long it takes. thank you for the advice on the batteries; I'll be careful with incorrect charging. I actually got into this hobby as a recommendation by a sport psych friend to increase my hand eye coordination and mental focus for my main sport, which is Kendo--Japanese Fencing... this is much better than video games.
Bokushingu Very cool!
thanks for acknowledging my comment. my kitchen is the same as yours but I can't get a quad three feet high without crashing. not giving up through!
+John Wedrall Keep at it, and before you know it, it'll be like second nature. :) Kind of like riding a bike... takes some practice, but once you "get it", it becomes completely natural. :)
I will try because I like this sport. Thanks :)
I will try replacing the batteries that I installed just in case they may be bad. They are new batteries but you never know. I'm at work right now so I will have to do that tomorrow or later tonight when I get home.
Yep i'm going to have to get one of these, tight enough funnel turns to fly indoors for me!
+Anthony Eaglebarger (toysoldier46552), I have a stupid question: How do you get it to funnel?
Michael Gray okay left stick turn then full forward while keeping it in the air with the left stick, or you can left stick turn either left or right and use full left input or full right input on the right stick or even forward and right or left full inputs. I hope I explained that well enough.
will try it tomorrow
Michael Gray just remember to make sure you have plenty of room and I tend to yaw or left stick spin it then add the pitch and roll commands so it doesn't drift as badly.
I love the packaging, the portability. I'll do more research on it before I decide to buy it though.
Loved it while it worked. Really fast and fun. But a seemingly unimportant tiny piece broke off and now one motor doesn't work at all. Really bummed! Only had two flights.
Fixed it. Extended the antenna outside the body's frame which increased the range and increased overall performance. This initial damage was my fault, not a defect in the drone itself. My only complaint, which is minimal, is the fact that the instructions are written in broken english and you actually have to turn on the DRONE FIRST in order to sync it. But overall it's a damn good little flyer. My absolute favorite of the microdrones so far. Fast as hell!
Also, it'd help if the buttons were labeled. You have to experiment a little to figure it out.
Hi Ryan,
I found out last night that Tmart.com also carries this copter under the name Fuqi FQ777-124. Appears to be the exact same copter and sells for $18.99. I just ordered one in red. The control sticks appear to be a tad longer also from what I can see in the picture but I'm not positive.
Yes I love mini quads that let you charge it in the case itself
Hi Ryan. I just came across a new version of this quad copter. It’s the FQ777 124+ model. It has a swappable 200 MAH battery. Big battery for a nano. Also has a very large LED in the front.Hard to find one in the USA just ordered one from China. You should check it out. Nick
I have this one and it's my go to backpack micro. It flies surprisingly well for it's size. The controller sticks aren't so great, but I took off the button sticks and super glued some standoffs in their place. A good mod. ;-)
+MrSatoV This now comes with optional sticks. I ordered them separately, as they now sell them as spares. :)
+Flyin' Ryan RC Cool! How do they attach? Hmm, I'll have to check that out! Good to have several anyway, in case they come off as mine did.
man your the best reviewer ever! love it keep up the good work
+Aschhaim Beck Thanks! :)
Please make more videos!
I personally think it flies better than the cx10. I have two of these and a cx10. These are more stable and less twitchy in my opinion.
For the part where it hit the light good thing it had the protectors for the blades so it doesn't break
You kind of sound like Chief Hopper from Stranger Things.
This is really a cool little quad! I saw a different pair of control sticks that suit punchers better on Bang Good. Just uploaded a video on the drone today! :)
Mine is called "Tech Toys Aerodrone" but is exactly the same as the one in this video. So, this is just a re-branded, common micro-quad which is common with many drones.Mine came with stick extensions that you can trade for the knobs if you wish. But they forgot my charging plug that goes into the controller. This quad was confusing for me getting started, and too sensitive & twitchy on throttle. Overly-sensitive has been my experience with most micro-drones.
this could be my first nano very nice kit..And other fine review.
Damn it! I just bought two of these for the office and I forgot to use your link! Sorry!
+Alberto Noys No worries! Thanks for the thought though. :)
Yes. I charge all my new quads and helis before I fly just to be sure everything is fully charged and ready to go.
+John Bunegru Right, but did you fly it after the first successful bind? And then if so, maybe it didn't recharge properly, so it's actually dead, and that's keeping it from binding?
Great video that is a good idea a nice little package with everything you need for some fun flying yep that's cool thanks for sharing.
I know why they put the landing legs on it: Because it looks like a tiny SymaX5 like that! It makes it 13-17% cuter.
Very complete little kit. Good flyer too.
Overall this seems like a really great value!
+Michael Thompson "13-17% cuter" LOL, nice! :D
I retract my statement about not wanting another done lol. This one's cool😎. I wonder if I put a gi joe machine gun on the front like a military done if it would effect the flight too bad..🤔
+TrueHoodEnt If it's light enough, it shouldn't make a difference. You wouldn't be able to store the quad in the transmitter if you did that though.
Wow I've never seen someone fly a cheap drone that impressively!
+Jake Marino Thanks! :)
Bought this based on your review. I thought you had said it had hoover mode but it doesn't. must have been a different review - no biggie. landing legs prevent hitting motors. mine came with two extra sticks so you can change to pinch type. doesn't come with screwdriver and you need one to install the batteries! also, you have to take it apart to store in controller/case. the internal charge cable is a nice idea but you have to leave the drone hanging out to charge. would be good if you could pack it up in controller/case and let it charge. then when done charging just turn off the controller switch. this way it doesn't overcharge and you can move on knowing it's charged the next time you pull it out.
+hicoteo I agree. :) As for hover mode, I don't think there are any nanos with altitude hold, yet.
Dude, you were the voice of the main character of the game "Postal"?????
LOL that game was awesome, but no, that wasn't me. haha
Thanks for the review!!
I have the exact some one
Ive been hoping you would reveiw it. 😀
The funny thing is
I was just about to ask you if you could do a review on it:)
grear review. few questions:1. how you make flip? 2. How to use the return home feature?
+Ronen Aknin I don't recall off the top of my head, but I likely covered those features in the review. I know for sure I covered how to make it flip. Not sure about return, because I usually brush over that sort of feature, as it is entirely unreliable and I don't suggest using it at all.
thnx
Has that helipad been on the cutting board this whole time?
+Chris Fariello For a few months, or so. ;)
i absolutely love this one. my fav nano. better than cx-10 !
+Ashish Amatya Agreed, the cx10 is hella twitchy and drifts a lot
It also has a neat carrying case!
+markybyeah Define hella
Jeff Valentine
You're everwhere following me on RUclips. Kindly piss off
Jeff Valentine
Go play with your paper plane or something..
i have one of these! its awesome!!
awesome review as usual
I like that fish lamp
Haha thanks! :) I get a surprising amount of comments about that lamp. :)
Yes, just got a couple of these today. Fortunately I've been flying with my thumbs since 1973 so there is no problem there. I'm not sure about the directions for charging this little unit with the transmitter, i.e. do you have to turn the transmitter on? Just putting them together so I haven't had a flight on one them. Just waiting for it to charge. Good video!
Yes, I believe you have to turn on the transmitter. You can verify that by connecting the quad with the Tx off, and see if the charging light turns on or not. :)
Ordered one of these a few days ago..looking forward to playing with it. Ryan,where did get your fish lamp? That is too cool,lol.
My mother got it for me as a house-warming gift. I have no idea where she got it... she shops at strange little stores, and flea markets, so it might even be a one-off for all I know. :)
Thanks Ryan!
2022!! I just found an extra one i got back in the day. Brand new. yeeehaaaw!
Be careful with the landing gear--I found out that they make fantastic kitty toys!! I found that out way too late. Now, I can't find them. LOL!!
+Mary Martus Hahaha!
Nice tight funnels. Thanks for sharing.
My friend told me a funny story the other day. His son got one of these in the mail a week ago. On his first take off, a hawk swooped in outta nowhere and snatched the little drone up. Wasn't even a day old.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
im getting alot of stuff I want for Christmas here if i get what I want from my dad my mom and step dad may not come to my room cuz of all the quads and stuff
I use the cut out insides of a pen as stick extensions lol
Makes me wonder what the FQ777 label really means. I have this small foldable drone I bought from Eachine not long ago because it looked cool and I wanted something to fly for fun while my other drones batteries charge and it's also prefaced with FQ777, I assumed that it was part of their brand series but apparently it shows up all over the place...
Yeah, no idea... good question!
It's a cute little thing
The yaw is faster to one side than the other because of the torque of the motors on the quadcopter.
Nope, because all the motors counter-rotate eachother. That is one of the main principles that allows quadcopters to fly. ;)
THANKS FOR THIS VIDEO.
I was in the process of trying to trim it out on the first flight but ended up with a hairball in one of the props so I had to stop to clean the prop so I shut everything off. When I try to restart to continue the flight it wouldn't bind.
remember having one of these when I was a lil kid shit thrown In the garbage got a DJI mini 3 pro now so I’m straight but man nostalgia times fr
awesome little quad mine actually came with longer sticks for the controller that works better I think so they're adding them now or somehow I got really lucky.
+Ronnie Boardman Yeah, others have said that too... guess they added that in newer production runs. And you can buy them as spares on Banggood.com, so I have ordered a couple. :)
+Flyin' Ryan RC Yep, got mine with sticks too! But I need your help. I got this quad in the mail today and the advertised flight time is no where near the flight time I'm getting now!
With everything on I get about 3.5 minutes of just hovering and about half if I'm flying around (and slightly better with everything off. Do you think this is a battery issue or the whole quad? I'm still new to quads so sorry if it's a dumb question.
+Jefafa Von Richthofen there's a really early battery warning you should be able to get another minute and a half even after the battery warning.
Jefafa Von Richthofen Pay no attention to "advertised" flight times. I state the actual real-world flight times in my reviews, so compare yours to what I said in my review.
Flyin' Ryan RC Fair enough the advertised usually doesn't tell the truth, but my quad (with everything attached) can only HOVER for about 3 minutes and fly around my dorm room for about a minute and a half (low rate).
Should I try sending it back for another one?
Also I should note I bought it off Amazon and not Banggood, not sure if that makes a difference.
Yes, I am 100% sure that the batteries are good. It did bind once but that was it. Every other time I try to bind again it wouldn't. I just hope that I don't have a dude on my hands.
+John Bunegru That's very odd. Are you sure the quad is charged?
Just say no to red lights in the front!! ;) Thanks for the review.
thanks for helping me out, I subscribed!
+aka Barry Thanks! And I'm glad to help. :)
im totally getting this..
I've got one today and inside they do longer sticks
That's awesome!
Best drone with super protection
The size is very small of the quadcopter but very fast
Just bought 2, today! 😊😊
My mom said i can have one in chrismas yay!!!!!!!!
My bro got me one
+JoshyPlaysMC (JoshyVlogs) lucky!
I got one for 13 dollars but it did not have the charging cord to charge off the controller and it could only be charged by pc.plus with every crash the props would fly off took it back.
Love your videos man
Thanks! :)
Hi my drone is tilting towards one side and I've trimmed it. Can you tell me the right wings sequence or any other troubleshooting method. Thanks
I can't get mine to work. My 5 yr old lost the thing that looks like 4 round somethings that attaches to it. Is that what's making it not work?!?! We also don't have the charger that came with it. It's charged it's had the green light and a red flashing light. That beeps
please, what is the battery duration?
*SORRY FOR ENGLISH*
+Hiper Espada Including the battery warning, it should be 5-6 minutes.
br?

João Pedro De Hollanda hue
Why does my drone always fly to the left but not up in the air
Kwickie9288 Kwickie same
Does it lift up at all, or it flips over? You might have one or more props on in the wrong positions.
Flyin' Ryan RC it flips over and the controller always glows red even when I charge it
Kwickie9288 Kwickie maybe trim or rate or props are broken
a really cool device that one can practicaly fly out of the box,, for a 1st time learners drone its awesome, easy to learn and fly,,
can you make a video of how to do all kind of tricks with your quad? by the way u r the best
+Ivan Tchesnokov I plan on making some flight tutorial videos after winter passes and I can get back to outdoor flying. :)
Flyin' Ryan RC can this thing fly without headless mode?
just got mine today, its my first quadcopter, it doesn't seem to fly flat with no control input. I've done all the fine tuning stuff that it says in the manual and nothing seems to make a difference. Anyone else had this problem? what did you do?
Anyone else got optional sticks with it? I ordered two of these in black and in white. The black one had optional sticks in the bag where the extra props are etc.. White one had no optional sticks:) Even though i'm not a pincher, the super low thumb pads are pain in the arse to fly, Too touchy for me at least.
+sledgehammer1570 Apparently newer production runs include sticks now, so you must've gotten one new one, and one old one.
+Flyin' Ryan RC Ok cool! I like this nano the best cause it has lot of things for the buck. It flys good and the best thing is that the transmitter is fairly large. Those tiny tx's that usually comes with nanos are awkward to fly for grown man's hands:) Keep up the good work on reviews ryan!
nice Trout !
