Test drive
In the niche it occupies, the Udi U818A showed good dynamics in the absence of wind. In practice, in windy weather in flight, the quadcopter had a noticeable windage. Note the operation of the 6-axis gyroscope, it is indicatively stable in control, beginners will appreciate it. Has 2 modes of activity. In our opinion, the developers, using this model as an example, focused the attention of a potential buyer not on the dynamic properties of the drone, but rather on the UFO design. The drone is especially effective at night in the beams of LED illumination.
