    Where is the antenna wire attached to the drone?

    What is the little wire in the right side landing strut?

    I am replacing the landing struts on my Q500 4K and after I removed them I noticed a little wire taped to the inside of the right side strut. It is black, insulated and has some kind of component in it, with a bare silver braided end at the ground end. I assume it's an antenna of some kind.The...

    smart phone connection for steadygrip CG03 (no camera image)

    BINGO! Checked the batteries and the voltage was low. Put in fresh ones and Voila! That did the trick. Thanks everybody for all the suggestions. We're back in business. Now if I can get the drone to stop dropping out of the sky I'll be a happy camper. Again, thanks everybody for the help.

    smart phone connection for steadygrip CG03 (no camera image)

    This was a good suggestion but I went through the whole process and the phone says it's connected. Still no picture. Thanks for trying.

    smart phone connection for steadygrip CG03 (no camera image)

    Wi-fi on my phone says it's connected. Nowhere does it ask for password, no way to enter it. I tried uninstalling and re-installing the CG03 app several times, powered on the steadygrip first, opened the app first. Same result: camera screen shows all controls but is black & unresponsive. Then...

    All the sudden fell from the sky and crashed.

    I have had the same problem for about 9 months and they haven't done a thing for me.

    smart phone connection for steadygrip CG03 (no camera image)

    Not a silly question. Thanks for the suggestion. I have a Samsung Galaxy S5 and I think it was the latest model when the drone was manufactured. And it has worked when I tried the steadygrip before so I don't think that's the problem. The instructions talk about logging in to the wi-fi using the...

    smart phone connection for steadygrip CG03 (no camera image)

    I'm trying to use the CG03 with the steadygrip and everything works fine except the camera screen on my phone monitor shows no camera image. All the functions are there but the screen is black. A little box pops up in the middle and says "network error" momentarily. I went to my phone Wi-Fi...

    Running in new batteries?

    I have heard that the batteries should be stored at 50% charge. How do you discharge the LiPo batteries?

    Sudden altitude drop and hard landing.

    Can Yuneec rebuild my Q500 (replace the body)? How much is the cost?

    How much to rebuild Q500 body?

    I have a number of structural and cosmetic cracks in the fuselage of my Q500 from hard landings and outright crashes. I have repaired the damage as best I could with JB Weld epoxy. It still flies but replacing the body seems like a complicated job that I would rather let an expert do. Does...
