Thanks for your prompt assistance gents. The link is excellent.

Simple question guys: Is it better for the long-term health of the batteries to store them charged or drained ? I've been storing mine charged, but 18 months on their life has dropped off noticeably....

This happened to me in June 2017, the H being just 3 months old at the time. Yuneec UK were fantastic, and I had a replacement (under warranty) in my hands within 24 hours. In my case they said that they'd identified a fault on the mainboard, but would not elaborate on that.

Thanks to not one but two warranty replacements, I am now on Typhoon #3. For what it's worth, #1 and #3 have had this issue. #2 never did. All were EU stock. Never could work out why......

Ty Pilot was right on the money there - works a treat - thanks for the advice :-)

Thanks for that - I'll give it a try when the weather improves.......

Ladies and Gents, I've managed to get my head round flying CCC over the last few days, but I don't seem to have any control over the camera. Can anyone give me any advice on this please ? Thanks.

CONCLUSION: A somewhat traumatic day ! I phoned UAVision (The drone shop at Devizes who supplied the Typhoon) and they gave me a number for Yuneec UK, and they were nothing less than brilliant ! The guys at Yuneec asked me to send through the files for the last 6 flights. 90 minutes later...

Thanks for the input guys. Firstly, I was using the charger supplied with the drone. Secondly, as I was planning to take the drone to France as cabin baggage, and, despite having Lipo bags at the ready, I figured that the less energy stored in the batteries when in the cabin the better. I...

Just two days before the trip to the south of France for which I spent a small fortune on the H, and just as all the Team Mode practise was coming together beautifully, it's remains are now sitting on a table in the garden. We were having a last flight before the trip, and I decided to let the...

Thanks for clearing that up guys......

Firstly, no great problems - everything seems to be working fine. I've just connected the ST16 to my PC. It's showing up on Windows Explorer, and I can see the Flight Logs, so I know the connection is good. I've also found the files for recent photos and video in the flightmode/media_data'...

Many thanks for this Steve - we've now sorted the problem. I think the issue was that having achieved the desired result once, we rushed when it came to doing it a second time, and didn't follow precisely the same sequence on subsequent flights, then when it started to go wrong, we started...

One time - I think it was the second time we tried it - my friend and I managed to get the H flying perfectly on the wand. Angle mode is fine. In smart mode we had both 'Watch Me' and 'Follow Me' working, then in 'Point-to-Fly' Nick was improvising flying an orbit, whilst I had full control of...

I'm very much at the Rookie stage here, having only had my H for a couple of weeks. However when I collected it from UAVision the advice I received was NOT to do any calibration unless or until I had a crash. Mine was fine straight out of the box. Hmm - I guess this post might just confuse the...
