Welcome fellow drone lovers to another review. This time we are going to be looking at the Song Yang SY X22.
After trying and testing this drone numerous times, I came to the following conclusion about its performance.
Pro’s of the Song Yang SY X22
- It flies really well, it is described as being ‘sporty’ and I 100% agree. It is responsive to turns and maneuverability
- It looks great – he red is pretty sexy
- One key return and headless mode
- It got a fantastic range for such a small quad (100 meters)
- It has great lighting with diffusers that can be seen in bright daylight
- It does not require FAA registration (yay!)
Con’s of the Song Yang SY X22

I have lost one of the blades on my drone. Apparently there’s a tiny sort of cylindrical piece of plastic going between the blades and the drone, of which no replacement is provided. So, if you actually lose a blade, you are stuck.
I’ve contacted the company about this issue since your not the first to inform me. However, they have not replied which is rather annoying.
