I've had many drones,some better than others. The UDIRC U818A is a well made,easy to fly and easy to fix toy drone. It is very rugged and reliable, but if something should break, parts are both inexpensive and easy to find through domestic suppliers. Fly time is about average for this size drone...7 to 8 minutes. Super simple and efficient design. It, like most light weight drones, doesn't like wind but if you bump it up to mode 2(high speed) it responds much better. The camera is adequate, but not really what this drone is all about. If I could only have one drone to play with it would definitely be on of the U818 series. A WiFi FPV version is available with a better camera,one touch takeoff and landing as well as altitude hold feature. The U818 is the way to go if you want to get into drones,have fun and not go broke. A definitely good buy!!Read full review

The flight time is a little short but the included charger under charges the battery by a significant amount. My dedicated rc battery charger will put about 1.5 minutes more flight time into the battery. It flies more like a helicopter with the left stick being a throttle vs. an altitude of most semi autonomous quad copters. The camera seems to take better pictures looking into the sun than with the sun to its back which is odd but it works ok. It’s a little awkward to take your hand off the left stick to take a picture and there is a delay. There is a green LED on the camera that lets you know there is an SD card inserted and the LED changes to red when it is taking the picture. When you take video it blinks red.

My first drone purchase after using the same model as a friends. This model does not cost to much $40. comes with a SD card and reader, extra blades and gears, with a camera. I bought five extra batteries for a extra $15 because they only last for about 5-9 minutes. The drone is really tough and can take a beating, but does need the wind to be under 10 MPH. I really recommend extra batteries!!!

This little quadcopter is great fun and doesn't mind bumping into objects or falling to the ground or getting caught in trees. The worst thing I've run into is a bit of grass getting wrapped around one of the propeller shafts. You get lots of flying time without having to spend a lot of fussing around time.
