    Losing Connection to Camera

    I actually answered my own question! After i thought about it i was trying to recall what was different this time i flew, then i remembered i changed the video capture rate. I found this PDF in the forum that perfectly explained why i didn't get any picture...

    ND Filters, worth the cost!

    I bought this set of 3 ND filters from Best Buy. I tried out the ND4 yesterday and WOW, what a difference it made in the color saturation of the video. It was a sunny, late afternoon. I could see where the higher density would definitely help in noon day sun. I'm just a hobbyist but can...

    Losing Connection to Camera

    i went flying this weekend and encountered a new problem. as i was reviewing the captures on my SD card - i didnt have any of my still pictures. Nothing. I took several and even visually inspected the screen during some of those to be sure i got the "capture successful' message across the top...

    Losing Connection to Camera

    i do have a DJI on my wish list - been looking at the Phantom 4 to see what new features it has over the Pro 3. Aside from obstacle avoidance is there any specific feature you know that the 4 has that the pro 3 doesn't? My impression is the other programmable flight features should be firmware...

    Losing Connection to Camera

    Thanks MD - I'm hoping its not a lose solder. I'm not as experienced with a solder gun and would hate to have to send it back to Yuneec for that repair.

    Losing Connection to Camera

    Stan - have you experienced any recorded video loss when you lose connection? I haven't shot enough video to know yet if I'm also losing my recordings when i lose connection between the St10+ and the camera.

    Losing Connection to Camera

    Hi All - So i tried re-binding and went out to fly in a smaller field. This time i noticed i would lose connection to the camera quite often. Even when flying within 100 feet or less. I may not have noticed first few flights since the majority of time my focus was on the quad itself, but now...

    maytech props

    Do you still use the rubber O rings with the Aeronaut props? I just ordered a set and wanted to verify.

    Drone School of Hard Knocks

    Where'd you get that snappy launchpad?

    Losing Connection to Camera

    Thanks NRRTRAINS - I'm skeptical it was interference since I was not near any populated area's, cell towers or anything else that could be transmitting or receiving. I'll try re-binding and let you know if I see any difference.

    Calling all veteran Pilots (newbies pay attention)

    Great reminder! I suspect that's what caused mine to move in an unexpected direction and when trying to correct it being in smart mode didn't help me since I wasn't used to it.

    Calling all veteran Pilots (newbies pay attention)

    I'll share the 1st lesson I learned (the hard way unfortunately). 1st time I fired up my Q500 I thought I was being very cautious, simply hovering it in the driveway a few feet off the ground. I also was under the impression I should start in Smart Mode, since that's what they recommended for...

    Losing Connection to Camera

    Hi All - I'm new to the Yuneec community but have so far benefited from reading some interesting posts. I've searched the 4k help threads and don't see anything exactly like I experienced so look forward to some guidance. I took my Q500 4k out to the country, wide open fields, no interference...

    CGO3 not straight

    I agree with you Ed. Seem like Yuneec would publish something on this subject since there seem to be enough users commenting on it. Is this limited to the CGO3 camera or does anyone know if this also happens with the earlier CGO's?

    Typhoon 4K F-150 Off-Road Video Part 2

    nice shots. Some of your scenes look like you were going a good speed, did you have any trouble with the Q500 keeping up with you? I think the top speed I've seen advertised was 22MPH, I can't tell if you're speeds were real time or post production edits but just curious if you had to make any...
