    One thing after another

    Mike, I tried every button on the controller as well as just stabbed my finger all over the screen to make the "Obstacle avoidance failed" message go away. Nothing worked. Seems like there has to be a fix for that. Thank You

    One thing after another

    Thanks for the input all. norwiscpilot I haven't had time to check this yet but it should have been the first thing that came to mind. Hopefully you are right and I can move forward. I'll let you know. Thank also for the input Keith and Aaron K

    Batteries

    I just got 2 new batteries from a Chinese company. They're not Yuneec brand but they are brand new and seem to work fine. I just received 2 of these and they work fine. Wish I could say the same for my drone. I'm ready to throw in the towel on Yuneec and find a better alternative. I might be...

    Joy Stick / potentiometer

    I think I might need one but I'm gonna give the spray a couple more tries. What is the price on these and do you still have them? I want brand new also if I can find one. Thank You

    One thing after another

    Not sure why I even bother anymore. 1 out of 3 times I take my Typhoon H out something malfunctions. I thought I fixed my sticky joystick problem, thanks to WTFDproject's help. I sprayed potentiometer with contact spray and turned on the controller 3 or 4 times since to see if the problem...

    What does rapid beeping and lights flashing on startup mean?

    I'm a residential building Contractor and I'm planning on doing a lot more drone footage before, during , and after on projects. I thought I was going to be shelving that idea but I think I'm back in the game. Have a great week All!

    What does rapid beeping and lights flashing on startup mean?

    I think I've fixed it. Just sprayed some contact cleaner in there and no more beeping or funky readings for now. The Hardware monitor is coming in squeaky clean. The other "Final Output Monitor" is all at 000% except the first column which doesn't look like it's supposed to be at 000%. It reads...

    What does rapid beeping and lights flashing on startup mean?

    I watched this video earlier this morning. After watching it a couple times, I'm not seeing where he jammed the tile in. I have a hot glue gun. Can you show me where I would expect to have to apply a drop of glue?

    What does rapid beeping and lights flashing on startup mean?

    It wouldn't let me delete the existing model but I created a new one and bound the 2 and ran the tests and it's actually worse than before.

    What does rapid beeping and lights flashing on startup mean?

    I just went back in the hardware monitor and noticed that J4 is a little off center. Maybe I do need to disassemble and clean the potentiometer. Would you recommend contact cleaner or just blowing air on them and checking all the connections? Well, if this above test is any indication, my stick...

    What does rapid beeping and lights flashing on startup mean?

    I think so too. After shaking the sticks around and letting them spring back into place, everything seems fine for now. No telling when/if it will happen again But I'm going to do your Final Output monitor test now. I really appreciate all of your help. Thanks

    What does rapid beeping and lights flashing on startup mean?

    No it doesn't come and go. It is continuous. But the motor will start while beeping.

    WTFDproject Yes it is the same noise.

    What does rapid beeping and lights flashing on startup mean?

    Well I Youtubed the potentiometer cleaning and checked the hardware monitor and it's all looking good. I flippped the sticks around a bit figuring this seems like the logical issue, (joy sticks off center or sticking). Didn't take apart and clean or check anything yet. But now when I turn it on...

    What does rapid beeping and lights flashing on startup mean?

    I guess I'm unable to attach a short video but it's definitely the drone that's beeping. The rear light is purple for about 4 seconds the blinks white for 1 second and keeps cycling that way. Your description of the problem sounds right though. Because every time I take off when it's doing this...
