I flew both of my H's yesterday for about 1h20m total fight time. It was unbelievable that I did all that and not one incident to report. Went up, left, right, right, left and performed five succesful landings without one broken prop. Maybe I'll try to flying my oldest H into a tree at full...

I certainly agree. I have little doubt it's the "best scenario" (no camera, no RealSense OR not active, no wind, hover and ideal temp) to obtain the maximum flight time. Remember the auto manufacturers reported MPG on window stickers from many years ago was a far cry from reality. The EPA...

Sure, reducing weight and as PatR states, reducing power draw will do wonders to increase flight time. However, all that "superfluous stuff" is really important. The camera proves helpful when I am shooting a 18 hole golf course or a 300 acre vineyard (the primary reason for a longer flight...

Well shoot, it will fall short of my relentless pursuit of 25 solid minutes of continual flight time. So far the Venom 6700 is the closest yet. Maybe the H520 will be my dream come true...however, not sure I will hold my breath.

Looks like they're available on eBay only from Hong Kong for $106. Anyone had an opportunity to try one yet? I purchased one yesterday and am very curious to see how they perform. I'm not convinced about GiFi cell quality or where they're actually sourcing cells that generate 2012.5mAh (give...

Thank you for the confirmation! Sounds like it's time to try one!

Correct, the charger would be a real nice door stop without the H battery adapters. I have several, but I normally use the one I purchased from one of the members of this forum. He did a lot of 3D printing of adapters and battery cages (for the life of me I can't remember his name). They work...

There are a few different threads related to Typhoon H battery chargers, this appears to be the most relevant to my concern and questions. I have a EV-Peak CQ3 4x100, overall a good flexible charger. However, a balance charge consistently shuts off indicating it's full @16.8 V but in all...

Just purchased my second H from Costco which has them with RealSense and a bunch of sweet extras (SkyView Goggles) for $1499, Really good price for what you get! Of course you need to be a member. Costco Wholesale

Live to FLY!

Did a really stupid thing yesterday...got distracted by a dog that wanted to say hello while doing a precision maneuver and clipped a tree and down it went right on the camera (new one arrives in a few days) with gear up. With the exception of a bruised ego, broken props and a bent and broken...

I received my set yesterday. Carbon Fiber looks fantastic but I too have one prop that needs to be filed down before it will turn and lock. A few of the others were tight initially bit they did lock into position. Definitely not as easy to lock and unlock as the factory Yuneec's. For the...

Yuneec H - First drone.

The RealSense bolt-on modules look like they're available for purchase this month...or at least retailers like Vertigo Drones are showing a mid-October ship date. It's holding at $399...steep price but I must have it! Sure wish I had just purchased the Pro version!

Completed the FW update last night and did 1.1 hours of flight today without issue. Stays on station, maintains altitude...rock solid. I've only had the drone for a few days and I am really impressed with how it fly's. One thing to note, as vr-pilot indicates, the altitude in the ST-16 is...
