    Typhoon H Unboxing!

    Hi there, how much did you pay in AUD? How many sets of props do you get? Cheers!

    Best software

    Wondershare is pretty good but the free version will only convert a third of your movie, you can edit, supress chunks of the video and also compress a video so you can upload it easily on a platform, but you have to shoot a lot (it will convert 1 minute of a 3 minute movie) of video to make the...

    I think you are all drinking Yunnec's kool-aid....

    Hi there, agree with WP, the Typhoon may be a bit overrated, having said that, and although I had my troubles with it (essentially caused by me, myself and I) since I've also experienced a swollen battery but that was due to one violent crash when it went full steam again a big rock once I've...

    Yuneec or DJI ? Why not both ?

    Hi JV, Well, I probably don't have 100 hours experience, and smashing a drone in a tree indeed happened at early stage and because of the perspective at a certain distance, but since then, I did get a few hours down the belt and depending where you are living, you can be surprised by a sudden...

    Yuneec or DJI ? Why not both ?

    Scott, I was actually comparing the Yuneec 500 4 k vs the Phantom 3 advanced It is true that the signal is way better on the Phantom, but since I tend to keep a visual on the drone at all time, the signal never been an issue with the Q500 Amother plys on tge Yuneec side is that can pair a cell...

    Yuneec or DJI ? Why not both ?

    Hi there, I have tried both birds and decided to go for the Yuneec; there are however 2 things I don't like with the Yuneec, and one of the two is almost a deal breaker for me: the speed: the Q500 is super slow, despite a firmware update, top speed under gps is 17 mph which is a bit ridicoulus...

    prop guards on ebay

    That's very good, thanks for the tip! Anyone knows if there are some prop on the spare part market that are not so expensive or carbon props that wouldn't break so easily??

    slow typhoon

    I've read that too, Wingshooter, but again, should I have known about that, I'd rather have a chance of having fun with the drone and wrestle with a bad after sale team than a good after sale service telling me "sorry, no can do"

    slow typhoon

    I'm afraid you're right Skypro. I wish I knew this before, made a lot of research before buying the machine, when I saw some speed evaluation on the phantom 3, i couldn't find anything on the Q500 and assumed that is was around the same, how wrong was I...

    slow typhoon

    Hi there, I just aquired a q500 4k and am extremely disappointed with the very slow speed of the machine This problem is only related to the gps: once disabled, the Typhoon becomes an extremely fast machine but very hard to pilot (broke 2 rotors on landing) and I suspect no good would come if...
