As you can see in the image above the X17 is packed with a similar transmitter as its smaller brother, the JJRC X16. It adopts the same minimalistic design, just in black color instead of a white one. On the front panel beside the usual control sticks, there are only 5 buttons and a status screen.

The transmitter is powered by 3 pieces of AA batteries and it has a range of around 800-1000 meters.

  1. Got this drone. 64 GB sd card works if you format it as FAT32. Problem is that the controller won’t pair with the drone so I cannot fly it.

  2. My JJRC X17 used to fall from the sky for no reason after been in the air 8-10 minutes, last time I lost it never when to recover it :(
