    Typhoon H splashes in ocean

    Is this footage possibly from Aruba where the wind is at constant 15 - 20 miles per hour?

    Typhoon H splashes in ocean

    and I would add that last winter the lake never froze through enough to walk on. So if the H went down I would be able to look at it sitting out there but not be able to retrieve it. If the lake does freeze over enough to walk on someone else might beat you to it. If it goes into the lake you...

    Living on a lake where I do 90% of my flying that's my biggest fear . . .

    Yuneec YES Extended Warranties and Crash Forgiveness

    Hi Gunny, To me it is a little unclear with the "Yes Crash Forgiveness". It states "1 Year warranty with Unlimited manufacturer defect repairs and up to 2 Non-Warranty repairs.". Whereas the YES! Extended Warranty. States "Extends the current one (1) year warranty to two (2) years." Does...

    Slightly Swollen H Battery

    I have 3 H batteries and they have all been used pretty much the same amount of times and they are the only H batteries I have. When I fly I fly till I use up all 3 batteries. They all get charged the same. They are all stored at about a half charge (~15.4v) if I know I won’t be flying for a...

    Another Use for the Red Button... Landing!

    Up until the latest firmware for the ST16 I was able to use the red kill button to put the ST16 to sleep when in 'pad' mode. This was a great way to conserve the batteries in the ST16 while I was NOT actively flying my H such as when reviewing FlightLogParser (the app on the ST16 that crashes...

    Gimbal Tags

    I just replaced my yellow ribbon with a string because the ribbon was looking a bit tattered. There is practically no way I can forget to remove the gimbal lock. Here is a picture:

    Typhoon H Prop Guards

    I wouldn't call them cheap knockoffs because they are a totally different design than Yuneec's so they're not a knock off; they are another design from an after market manufacturer. However they are slightly cheaper in cost but I think that you were referring to quality. That is what I am...

    Typhoon H Prop Guards

    I have those. They are sold under a few different names. While they are sturdy - more so than the ones from Yuneec they do have several negatives. They completely cover the LED lights under the motors, they greatly restrict the air flow from the motors (very bad), and they are a PITA to...

    Typhoon H Prop Guards

    Please provide a link to the prop guards you are referring to? They are probably the same ones I was referring to available on eBay, Amazon, and Internet hobby shops when I said "Both choices that I know about and referenced in the thread were poor in my opinion but the aftermarket guards . ...

    Gimbal Tags

    I tied a yellow ribbon to my gimbal lock and tie the bow at the top of the H. You can't miss it when you go to fly.
