    Crook Gate

    Very enchanting video. I did notice from the little headshot in the upper right corner that you look nothing like your avatar.

    Battery ejected moment before landing

    If the body of the H is intact repairing the arms is not that hard. You can save yourself some cash by salvaging the motor pods and arm roots that are undamaged and replace the broken arms with stock carbon tube of the same diameter that can be bought in 2 meter lengths and cut to the same...

    Price drop?

    In Germany, the Typhoon H-RS is selling for as little 1,150 euros I don't think I paid more than 1,700 euros for my first TH-RS, 2 1/2 years back. My second TH-RS was only 1,400 euros last February. I think the price you are quoting is rather on the high side.

    H 480 Won't descend.

    I replaced my last TH because it would not decend properly. My solution was to activate home mode

    As I said in my first post the stickers go on quite easily. They seem to be not quite as sticky as you would wish and on some pf the curved surfaces they lift a little at the edges at first. It takes a bit of time to get it all to line up, especially getting the black lines between each panel to...

    The DroneHunter knocks killer drones out of the sky

    I am curious what system they use to detect the incoming drone. Judging by all the patch antennas on the "Killer Drone" I would guess it is homing in on the telemetry or any of the other signals emmited buy the target. I doubt radar would be an option unless it was guided by a separate ground...

    Well had my first big crash with my typhoon h, and it was my falt.

    One thing I did was to buy some graphite tube stock in both the diameter of the rotor arms and the landing struts. It is a **** of a lot cheaper to cut a new section of tubing than to buy the whole arm or strut.

    Pimp my Drone

    All seemed to be as it should be. Mind you on my last drone on which I developed some control issues and exchanged for a new one, I had a registration sticker from the IAA (Irish aviation authority) stuck on the same place and I never had GPS issues with it. Today I took it out to about 400...

    Pimp my Drone

    I have now done a couple of flights with the new skin. I must say the new color does improve the visual when flying with the sky as a background. At distance, I don't really see a huge amount of color but where it seems to be an asset is when flying lower where the horizon is obscured with a...

    I have the same stickers on my ST-16 as well. I plan to hold on the the orange sheet of stickers for the ST-16 for any repairs or bits I might decide to fiddle about with. Anyway an orange transmitter doesn't really float my boat.

    Typhoon H - US or EU Firmware ?

    Once you put the EU version on your machine, I am not sure if you can easily revert to the US version.

    Well not exactly paper, a thin sheet of vinyl. But I get your drift. They do have one type of material that has a brushed aluminum effect. I have has some reflective tape that had a layer of reflective foil underneath and I would hope it isn't anything similar to that. Another possibility is...

    Well if it crashes, I can always peel it off before complaining
