HOW TO MODIFY THE SYMA X5C DRONE CAMERA

As we you know, the Syma X5C Drone is one of the drones that can be said to be suitable for anyone, because in terms of size, features to the price matter is also not too expensive, even this Syma X5C Drone also has a built-in camera that You can use it to capture moments when in the air or when the drone is flying, so no wonder this one drone is in demand, not Only in the Indonesian market, but also in other countries. For the pilots who are already seniors, will probably remove their camera parts and replaced it with another camera that is more dynamic so that it is in the corner the view can also be adjusted by yourself, because the built-in camera of the Syma X5C Drone has a patented nature, and cannot be changed according to desire, so that if you are classified as a newbie in becoming a drone pilot, then you will think twice if you have to buy a new camera for drones Syma X5C.

A problem that often irritates pilots is the camera which has a downward angle, so that if the drone moves forward, the camera will record the bottom position of the drone and not the front direction of the drone, therefore most pilots prefer to replace the Syma X5C drone's built-in camera with their own cameras. But there is actually one trick that can applied to make this camera point forward instead of forward bottom, so that when the drone drives forward, the camera can still record images fore instead of recording the bottom of the drone. This trick is simple, but it can be useful especially for you pilots who do not want to buy a new camera for drones Syma X5C, besides that this trick can also be developed by yourself according to creativity pilots respectively.

Okay, based on the problem as above, then actually What to do is quite simple which is to make the camera unit become facing forward. And to change it is also quite easy. First that should be prepared of course the tools and materials.

Tool:

Material:

Some may consider this blade protector to be a less important component so you remove it from the Drone body Syma X5C. Well if you don't use this blade protector, you can use it to support the modification this time.

Okay, just go straight to how to modify it. Actually, if it says the modifications are also not quite right, so maybe it would be better if we call it "outsmarting" only. Well, to find out how to do it, you can listen to it the following.

First prepare all the tools and materials, take the Drone Syma X5C, then unplug the camera from the drone body.

The next step is to remove the drone camera part from the Drone body Syma X5C.

Once the camera module has come off, now grab the unit that camera, and remove the two bolts/screws that make the module attach to battery cover.

Now when both bolts have come off, you can see that actually the camera unit can be made to angle straight ahead, down, and even upwards as well.

Next, take the blade protector component, it can be seen right in this blade protector there is one bolt too, and if taken this bolt has a longer size than the bolt on the camera earlier. Well Now take that bolt from the blade protector, because we need 2 bolts, then Take from both blade protector fruits.

Well, we have got two bolts that are long in size, now install these two bolts to replace the bolts connecting the cameras to the battery cover just now. Install it not deeply – deeply, but only partially just small so that the camera can be stretched out.

See the image below to find out the intention of installing The bolt should not be deep – deep so that the camera part can be stretched. If the camera can be stretched like that, automatically the camera angle becomes facing forward, and not facing forward down again like the original.

The next step, which is to take a small piece of sponge, which is You insert it in between the camera legs with the battery cover so that This part of the camera can continue to face forward.

After being given a piece of sponge in between the tenancies, the finished result is roughly like this

Well, we have succeeded in making the Syma X5C Drone camera become forward-facing. And the last thing you have to do is returned this camera unit back to the body of the Syma X5C Drone. And don't forget to connect the camera cable to its drone unit.

Now you can see that the Syma X5C Drone camera this time is already facing forward, so that when the drone flies forward, the camera will Capturing a front-facing image instead of downwards anymore.

Okay, that's a simple trick this time on how to make Syma X5C Drone camera becomes forward-facing, hopefully a simple trick this time it can be a reference for all pilots who need it, It turns out that to outsmart the camera so that it doesn't face too down is quite simple, there is no need to buy expensive additional tools anyway, even the bolts are also from the Blade Protector, just buy a sponge or just cut a small sponge in the kitchen can do it, hahaha.
