UDI Lark

[Corby]

Just curious if anyone has one of these quads? I'm seriously considering it. It seems like a great deal for $200. Let me know if anyone has any thoughts on this. Here's a link if you haven't seen one yet.

No real details available at your link. 2.4Gh FPV screen is kinda useless. The quad looks cool and big though.

These folks seem to have parts.

I'd opt for the non-FPV version.

But do try to find some actual reviews.

Why do you think the fpv is useless? I'll mainly be using it for recording some video of my friends racing around my r/c track in my backyard. That's actually what I liked about it.

Thanks!

You would have to find out how the video is being saved for one. On your track I got a strange feeling you'll be looking at the quad and not the little hard to see screen.

The video is actually saved onto a micro sd card. I'm think I'll give another week or so & see if anyone will do an actual review on it.
Do you think the 2.4 ghz will cause any interference with my other r/c's?

On the camera itself?

 

[Corby]

I'm actually not sure. I would think it would be on the fpv screen. I'll look into it some more. I wish there was a hobby store nearby that carried it so I could actually see and maybe play with it a little!!!

I would think it would be on the fpv screen.

If that is the case you probably won't get full resolution with a 2.4Gh system, and probably some frame dropping also.

Just need to see a few actual reviews.

Although not as pretty this 5.8Gh FPV quad may suit your needs. Very nice onboard video. Plenty of reviews available.

I have an Udi lark 842-1 fpv and i am glad to anwser all your guestions.

 

[Estonian]

It is quite large and it has 0.3 mpx camera. It also has 4.3 inch screen with 680x240 pixels. The 5.8ghz connection is smooth. I really enjoy flying fpv by it.

 

[Estonian]

But for better fpv you have to replace camera lens and 5.8ghz antennas as i did.

It is a nice quadcopter but it is not worth more than 150$. So i don'
t support to buy it by 200$.
