What You Need To Know About The U816 Quadcopter

By Rosella Campbell


The advent of modern technological advancements have given human beings a lot of interesting stuff to use for the improvement of the quality of living. The modern times have brought about innovations that are both ingenious and very useful all at the same time. These innovations are the products of a highly imaginative mind at work.

These ideas are turned into individually unique things, gadgets, appliances and other tools. They are utilized in varying fields such as in transportation, in the field of medicine, in the pursuit of knowledge, even in warfare and some in the field of arts and entertainment. One of the notable modern innovations is the u816 quadcopter.

This so called quadcopter is a combination of two words, as its name is originally quadrotor helicopter. This is a unique take on ordinary propelled copters. It is lifted and maintained airborne by all four turbines, instead of the usual main and tail rotor systems of standard ones. This one has four uniquely pitched turbines, two that turn clockwise and another two that turn counter. To make a quad work, one has to alter some of the characteristics of the torque that powers it, such as the load and the lift thrust capabilities.

Even though they have just become popular these recent years, quadrotors have actually gone a very long way. They have been around ages ago, back to earlier times as old as the 1920s and the 1930s. Even though they were made with a very good idea in mind, the earliest ones failed magnificently due to their poor performances. Years later they resurfaced again, only to be rejected by the public a second time because they imposed too much work on the side of the pilot.

There are many uses of a quadrotor. For starters, they are of quite the essence for research work. They are typically used by university researchers who are working on an important field of study. These flying objects are used to test and evaluate flight control theories, navigation, and robotics.

They are favorite tools for similar studies mainly because they are cheap. Conduction of tests and experiments often require many repetitions to ensure unbiased results, so expensive tools are impractical. Their no nonsense mechanical design makes them easier to reconstruct even by those who are new to the test field. Sometimes, they are used as test platforms when computer science experts collaborate with electrical and mechanical engineers on a joint project.

Military and defense forces also use them in surveillance and reconnaissance plans. They attach video recorders in these gadgets to unearth the secrets of the opposing enemies. They are also of importance during search and rescue missions.

Nowadays, there are even some toys and similar gadgets that take after the unique appearance of these quads. They usually come in a complete set with the quad itself, a USB charger, replacement blades, and other additional accessories. They are often found in the collection of the most avid toy collectors.

The u816 is the smallest model in the entire quad line. Its size makes it more lightweight and easy to maneuver. This is the perfect model for those who have not played with one before.
