    Emergency event during testing...

    Well I have TH, rather than a plus, which are very much different machines, so not sure any comments from me would apply to your craft... However, with that said... On a TH it doesn't, and I don't recall that it does on the plus either (though happy to be corrected by plus owners of course)...

    Question.. seriously.. why have..

    Media hysteria mainly. From exaggeration, to outright making stuff up (see Gatwick airport drones debacle etc), the media of the world has managed to successfully make about half the general populace immediately suspect anyone they see flying anything as being up to something nefarious. It is a...

    Typhoon H ND Filters

    You don't say where in the world you are, but as it happens I have a spare set of neewer NDs for TH. These cost more like £12 back in the day, so probably not in the same league as the freewells, but TBH I have had zero problems with the other set of identical ones I use regularly (they sent me...

    Typhoon H ND Filters

    Amazon UK still have some, though they seem a bit overpriced, and one review says they are too heavy for a CGO3, so not sure that bodes well...

    Problem free Typhoon H?

    No ! It would be impossible to predict with any level of certainty, and the word 'guarantee' certainly doesn't apply here ! I'd say that was 50% either way, and entirely down to luck !

    Float TH and Q500

    I remain unsure of the wisdom of placing the H camera anywhere near that sort of proximity to water without some additional steps taken to prevent water ingress. It has open vents on the underside, and is definitely not waterproof as is. I'd be very worried about splash-back there, and the...

    Flight over my neighborhood.

    Not a good idea to try and upload videos directly to the forum ! They should go up to Youtube or similar and then get linked here...

    Pitch and Putt

    Good XP there flush. That is my experience too. I even believe I am allowed reasonable exception to partially circumvent the 150m rule to a minor degree (is protected by solid block of tree cover), because I gave a safety flight demonstration to the local councillors which gained their approval...

    Emergency event during testing...

    Thanks Steve, will do. I had done an accelerometer calibration just the day before as part of getting the craft ready for the new season, and all seemed fine then, but can't hurt to do it again before the further tests. I think I did 2 additional packs immediately after the event in which I did...

    Pitch and Putt

    No, don't do that - remember your St-16 is logging every flight you make and the CAA/ police will grab that first if it comes to it, so they can find out exactly where you have been flying... When I fly local golf course I speak to the manager first and ask (I even emailed mine to get agreement...

    Pitch and Putt

    No no, that's far too jaunty a soundtrack for the epic-ness of the footage ;) Great shots though :)

    Resistive cell problems...

    Thank you. That battery is gone then. Could that also explain the unintentional 10 ft drop from the sky the other day, say if it was failing mid-flight ? I'm kind of assuming not, as nothing that weird with power was reported in the telemetry, but IME that is just the sort of thing a failing...

    Resistive cell problems...

    I presume that the reason this 3-season-old original Yuneec battery pack I have here is getting recharge / balance problems is because of its cell resistance ? That is currently reporting as 0, 4, 0, 20 in the IR department. May I get your confirmation that this is likely to be the reason that...

    Everyone needs to laugh once in a while.

    Yes we do ! How do you titillate an ocelot ? :)

    Dronut the drone

    Now this is the sort of post that could really benefit from a link ;)
