Have fun with your new drone, the Q500 is a great/stable drone for photography. The larger, better, faster card goes directly into the camera and you have to remove the card after filming and insert it into a computer to retrieve and view the videos and pictures from it. The images on the...

Fantastic post, Scott. I, for one, agree that just taking it out in an open field to "learn" is VITAL. Knowing why this (or any other drone) was purchased and its limitations is also VITAL.

Selling my 2-month-old Q500 4K. The only reason I am selling it is that I recently purchased a DJI Spark and that is more to my liking...I need the quad to be more portable. This Q500 operates perfectly and has, as you can see, many extras. I am including ...besides everything it can with in...

Thanks again for the reply, I have posted my phone experiences but to wrap it up, my phone (MOTO Z2 Play) does connect and operate the Breeze but it can't update or calibrate the compass. It does fly and operate, the range is crap and unreliable. I used my GF's Pixel phone to connect to the...

Thank you for the input! I am going to try one to experiment. I do want the controller but my phone does not seem to play well with the controller or the Breeze. I have flown the Breeze with my phone but I don't like it ( I like to have something to actually have my fingers on I guess). Did...

While researching the connection/use troubles and the list of working tablets/phones I did not see any of the Amazon tablets ( which are reasonable and I might be able to borrow/test) . I did see that in the Mavic forums, they ARE posting the 8" and 10" 2017 Amazon Fire tablets as a working...

Yeah, I agree about the IOS system being more "locked down" and therefore, easier to keep compatible. But, I understand that google IS trying to do the same to combat exactly that problem. I never really liked apple/mac/IOS mainly because of them being locked down but, and more importantly, I...

After having a Breeze that I was able to fly with my phone ( MOTO Z2Play..yes it is dual band) but had a problem with updates and compass calibration stating that the power was below 30% and can't proceed ( I was only able to update and calibrate using a Pixel phone) the Breeze did operate as...

You will need a repeater that does two things: Works on 5Ghz and is USB powered. There isn't a lot of reliable choices that do both. Plenty of "adapters" just a few repeaters

Of course, I do agree that they COULD be the same manufacturer. Actually, a fairly good bet that they are. But, how do we know that they also didn't make the OEM ... just not with the "Yuneec" branding now? Valid point regarding the manufacturer's interest in providing as failure proof part as...

I understand the fact that the aftermarket props for the Q500 CAN be inferior to the OEM. I think ALL of the props, OEM, and the aftermarket are made in China? I was asking what specific props he had the failure with. Because I did purchase some from Amazon...

Is there any way that you can link to which specific ones you purchased that gave you the trouble?

I have been using the "Morpilot 6300 mah" battery from Amazon as well as the "Morpilot Intelligent dual charger" with good results. Both the battery and charger have approx 20 cycles/flights on them at this point! (have only had this quad a little more than a week) The battery gives a few more...

I agree I was initially interested in the Breeze's size/relative portability. My primary interest is the photography/video and I know the Typhoon is MUCH bigger/bulkier but I like the stability and picture quality it can deliver...Not to mention the pricing now!! I can modify a back pack to...
