    FCC - $2.8M fine against Hobby King for 'booster' amps

    facts attached. Time to consider if a booster amp is worth the trouble it may cause. Enforcement advisories are usually issued to let everyone know they are about to come down on a particular activity, whether it is cellphone jamming or whatever. Well anyway the FCC has kicked-off the...

    Yuneec's Typhoon H support is dead

    I politely reject the hyperbolic Fear, Uncertainty, and Doubt atmosphere of the original post. No logical explanation or hard fact reason was given for the future-oriented comments therein. Being in communication with Yuneec a few times a week, I believe the original post isn't too important...

    Yuneec FPV goggles

    I guess I am late to the topic and see that a standard cable can be had, but since the number of wires was asked about, I wish to point out that great care must be taken when considering work with HDMI cables, as in soldering a free end to a board. Splicing two cables is generally not done. For...

    Spare parts

    We do it in the USA, and a few others some of whom are sponsors here. There should not be an issue with parts/repairs/sources in the USA.

    What to use to repair the landing gear mechanism???

    Yuneec sets a minimum retail price for each item with which retail dealers must comply.

    What to use to repair the landing gear mechanism???

    Please be sure to check for damage to the little gears and shaft/bearing surfaces in that servo so it will be reliable, i.e. not jam up on you when you need to land, etc.

    Is the Typhoon H still limited to 400 feet?

    Was in on a nice meeting with the local Yuneec sales person. He made it pretty clear they Yuneec is not interested in 'forcing' customers to comply with regulations by means of restrictive firmware/software, nor in spying on their flights or in 'phoning home' / grabbing telemetry. It is best...

    ???FPVLR or ITELITE DBS???

    Both are very good antennas. It was suggested to me before that the FPVLR is best if you are in an unobstructed or non urban / non suburban area and that the ITELITE is better in such areas. It may seem odd because bother are line of sight 'beam' antennas. What I have found is that the...

    lights

    I second this product as a friend uses them on his H and they are very good. I don't claim they are better or worse than other suggestions.

    Wild West Alive and Mean in Oklahoma

    In my opinion, this issue looks like an attention-grab by a politician with the media stirring the pot and it does not seem to be worth too much attention other than as an observation. There are laws or FAA rules that govern the flying of drones over structures and people. A few operators are...

    Jail Time

    Some larger drones had, and may still have, emergency parachutes. It's not a bad idea considering the human factor may have been less severe if a chute could have helped. Putting aside for the moment the bad action of flying over people in the first place: 1.) Having the drone high enough above...

    ???FPVLR or ITELITE DBS???

    Michael Lassiter said: ↑ rdmdrones.com has FPVLR H systems 20% off Total price is less than $100.00 Call Rebecca for discount. They also have backpacks available. No sir, actually it is much more likely that you didn't provide the necessary information to the system when you placed your...

    Yuneec.com now a hazardous web site?

    No I just hit the domain_name.com when going to a site. I almost always type the site in. yuneec.com was not working. If it doesn't magically work or default to any extra required gibblegobble (such as .../en_US/home.html in your link), then the site's broken as far as I'm concerned. Glad it...

    Yuneec.com now a hazardous web site?

    they best fix that site. Just right now a pre-sale customer asked me the url to a couple of specific products so they can read the manuals themselves from the source. I am not going to tell them the site is broken, but time is running out.
