Hi guys! I was planning on a simple 'entry' level drone that is around 100$. I have found the UDI U818A and the Syma X5HW. I couldn't really choose from these two. The Syma is cheaper but I don't like the really laggy video that you get, but I like how easily you can buy replacement batteries and the thrust, but the U818A has near no lag to the phone, and it is a bit better in terms of specs, but I don't like how easily it gets manipulated by the wind due to the frame acting like a sail. Which of these two do you suggest? Or can you suggest me a good ~80$ drone? Thanks!

The UDI U818A is good. I own one.

I heard it will move around a lot in the wind, how does that go? Also, I found the X5UW drone, and it seems to be good. which of the two will you suggest? Personally, I don't understand why the U818A is rated so high. It seems to be very weak in thrust and have short battery life compared to the others, so what makes the U818A so special? Thanks!
UDI U818A HD or Syma X5UW

The UDI U818A has a unique property I found to be necessary with a bush (and tree) pilot like me. It slams into things (a lot) and keeps on running. I haven't broke a rotor yet (it has a full rotor guard wrapping the rotors as part of its air frame) and I've had it a year. Knock on wood, which it is good at.
