    Is the Typhoon H Plus worth the upgrade?

    Upon doing additional research, I located the answer to my own question within Yuneek's Typhoon H Plus product video. I attached it below. 41 seconds in there is a side-by-side comparison of 12 MP 4K footage (Q500) and 20 MP 4K footage (H Plus). The sharpness is fairly similar as I suspected...

    Is the Typhoon H Plus worth the upgrade?

    Hello Sibelius, Thanks for your comments. I know for a fact the Typhoon Q500 4K camera and the Typhoon H cameras are extremely close as you described. I would say it is accurate most people would not be able to tell the difference. This would especially be so if both cameras were white...

    Is the Typhoon H Plus worth the upgrade?

    Hey guys, been a while since I have been on here. I personally own 4 Typhoon Q500 4K UAVs that I use for video production. Do any of you have experience with intercutting 4K video footage from the Typhoon H Plus with CGO3 4K footage from the Q500 assuming both are running at 30 FPS??

    flying the typhoon H down into a quarry hole

    You are right about the Q being a tad slow. My uses will include at least 3 at once though. This gives me different camera angles so it is not necessary to fly them around as much. I am even looking into zoom lenses (fixed focal length, not variable) on probably 2 of the 4 in order to further...

    flying the typhoon H down into a quarry hole

    Thanks Ron. I believe in the minds that created the device you fly. This is why I purchased 4 refurbished versions of the ones you used to fly for roughly the same amount of money you invested in one H. There was one other detail, I read in several places that the camera in the Q was actually...

    flying the typhoon H down into a quarry hole

    As a "lowly" Q500 4K pilot (though I do have 4 of them) a thought has crossed my mind that might be relevant to this discussion (which for some reason Yuneec keeps sending me). Keith mentioned certain advantages vs. disadvantages to the aftermarket. Please now permit me to SERIOUSLY disembark...

    flying the typhoon H down into a quarry hole

    I have learned something today. This bunch of pilots are not really pilots. They are philosophers.

    Not sure if I mentioned this before or not, but that quote from Mr. Einstein is awesome!!

    Trees and antenna interference

    Plus using gamma rays would give us the quite interesting side effect of becoming The Hulk!!! :D

    Noob needs a lot of help...

    Doom makes a great comment here. I would add that the UAV Pilot Flight Simulator is awesome and permits the development of skills without risking the aircraft itself either. The Flight Simulator has really helped me a lot!! YUNEEC Simulator for Yuneec Aircraft #YUNSIM BRAND NEW!! 813646023292...

    Thanks for that tip, Jeff! Looks like a great low-cost alternative to buying another charger...especially considering I already have 4!! haha

    Educate Me

    Makes sense. I have read about that procedure in several other places as well. What I was not aware of is how much the batts rebound. I should go back and check the ones I discharged to 50% and make sure that is still where they are at. Thanks for the great tip.

    Interesting. Sounds like maintaining the batts manually via one method or another is still better. This likely explains why Yuneek apparently did not make their batteries "smart".

    Wow, that is a cool feature! It took me hours to discharge a bunch of batts that I charged up before knowing about the 50% issue. I took the props off along with the camera and achieved 50% by tracking the discharge percentage on the ST10+. Kind of a pain!
