    Bad Motor Causes Crash On First Flight

    I recommend you try it the first time in a nice open area so you can be sure of your behavior. I can only speak for my own experiences but it seems unlikely that there would be a change this early in the game. Possibly with firmware I suppose. I updated mine when I got it but haven't looked for...

    Bad Motor Causes Crash On First Flight

    I've tested this several times on my H. It will not do anything crazy if I take off in smart mode inside the circle. It will take off normally and hover. It will however, only respond to control inputs take it further away from me until it gets outside the circle.

    Battery Test Results

    I tried recharging my pack on my old Imax B5 charger once so I could measure how much it put back into the battery. I had flown it 16 min when the battery low warning came on. I was surprised to see the charger put over 5569maH back into the pack. I thought either the charger was miscalibrated...

    altitude off

    Mine is often at -25' or so when I come back and land at the same place I took off from. It will reset to zero if you kill and restart the motors.

    Horror typhoon h

    BTW, my H will not take off in a random direction if you takeoff inside the safety circle in smart mode. It will fly straight up and hover in a fixed position. It won't go anywhere until you make it. It will only go away from you until you get it outside the circle. I just ops tested this.

    Horror typhoon h

    I actually had a similar experience to Roger Kenny but it turned out to be pilot error in my case. I had flown my H a number of times including on ccc with the gimbal in global mode. Although global mode was really cool, I didn't like the pitch control on the camera. It is backwards from...

    Where are the batteries?

    I ordered a couple batteries from B&H almost a month ago and they still haven't shipped them. I also ordered a couple more from Adorama with the same results. Anyone else had better luck?

    CGO3+ and the smartphone app

    I got a new phone yesterday, a Samsung S7 Edge. It connects just fine and very quickly I might add. I flew the H out to 400+ feet before the video started freezing up on the phone.

    Flying the H at higher altitudes

    I've been flying R/C aircraft for 30 years (wow, has it really been that long?) Although the H is plenty fast enough for a multirotor camera platform, it isn't really all that fast. I've had it up to 4000' away and 400' high. I usually start getting video break-up off and on between 1000' and...

    Hard case ideas

    I needed something that doesn't take up the entire back of my suburban ;)

    Hard case ideas

    Yeah, I don't plan on using the foam the H came in. I'll either make my own or simply not use any.

    Hard case ideas

    This one fits the H nicely and takes up a lot less room that the Husky rolling case. RIDGID 22 in. Pro Gear Cart, Black-222573 - The Home Depot

    CGO3+ and the smartphone app

    Samsung S4 Galaxy. It does work on my Samsung Note 10.1.

    CGO3+ and the smartphone app

    Thanks, I managed to get it to work on my table but it doesn't work on my phone.

    Flying the H at higher altitudes

    What kind of flight times are you getting at those altitudes and temps?
