You state that the swells were too big to land the bird on the deck. But you want to try to pick the bird out of the air(AKA hand catch). I think that if you tried to grab a leg you might break the part that raises the leg it is plastic inside and does not look very strong.

If you look at the arms they have a slightly different angle. when I ordered arms after my Typhoon backed into a branch I ordered them with the motors. $59.95 with the motor $49.95 without the motor.

Suggestion learn how to fly the H and if and when you do have a crash get the parts and repair it. That's what I did when mine went down. If you lose a prop land the H as soon as possible. I can see nothing but trouble trying to add a parachute.

Marnix You need to contact Yuneec to see if they can help you. The problem with any software or firmware update is problems with the downloaded file. The problem can be with the file itself or with the download over the internet. Try downloading the files again using Chrome rather then Internet...

If you watched the news in the last few days drones are in the news again. Someone may have been flying near airports at around 800 feet or higher. I think that Yuneec and DJI's lawyers are telling them to limit the flight ceiling to 400 feet. The only exception will be commercial pilots with a...

Why worry about firmware updates unless you are having a problem. You may get something that you do not want, like expanded No Fly Zones that have no real value to air safety.

I don't need a waiver as flying about 50 feet over the tops of the trees gives the best and clearest view of the tents and tarps that are used.

Flying Eagle No offence taken. We all want the same thing. I live by a large open space where a lot of homeless camp illegally. I fly the drones for the local police since the drones can cover more ground then people on the ground can. Recently I have been flying over a dyke construction site...

You read my post wrong I do not fly over 200 feet up. I live at 5000 feet. My comments were that you do not need any special props when flying at 5000 feet above sea level.

I live at 1500 meters and have no problem flying the H or Phantoms. The H maybe a little sluggish in turns but that may just be the nature of the beast. My normal height above the ground is under 75 meters.

After listening to members with more experience with the H. I found out what I was doing wrong. Because of the long binding and setup time I was starting the bird in my house and then walking it out to the launch site. The other thing is the H does not respond as fast as a Phantom 4.

We have some fun hobbies. Both the K1600 and the R1200RTP as well as the Typhoon H and a Phantom P4. I think that the H and the K1600 go together and the RTP and the P4. I have been wondering how many of us ride and fly drones.

To everyone who helped me after the crash. Thanks for all of your advice. I got the drone back together today and it flew fine until the battery showed that it was getting low. I may not have a chance to do further flying as we are supposed to get snow this afternoon and again on Sunday.

Thanks I got the pins out, now all I have to do is wait for the new arm.

I already have the shell off the H. The connectors just seemed frozen and wont pull apart. So I thought to ask before putting too much stress on the connectors.
