The characteristics performance of the small quadcopter was measured in a wind tunnel. The effect of propellers on the lift and drag of the quadcopter frame has been found. The quadcopter descent stage was investigated numerically by the RANS approximation. The calculations allowed determining the interference between the from the propeller with the quadcopter frame element. A significant effect of the quadcopter frame on the propeller characteristics in the vortex ring state was found.
