    Photogrammetry Apps Comparison (by a noob)

    I've tried Recap Pro/Photo and experienced issues... my GPU wasn't great... in 2018. I found the product layout and process a bit confusing too. Although, you've given incentive to take another strong look! Your 3D of Camero is outstanding! Very nice model! That's 130 photos of you walking...

    Is there a panoramic mode for H520?

    Have to agree, surprised over the year‘s time... additional features haven’t been added to the H520. Was optimistic new FW would address several new features and some minor problematic issues... that hasn’t happened. Had my H520 out a short time back, charge & cycle batteries on a few flights...

    H520E

    I think that clip has been the only thing I've seen on the 920E. No articles, company statements, or sUAV Tech writers. Wasn't that clip shown when it was originally hinted last Winter?

    H520E

    Is the 920e still a reality? A few Google searches basically hits zero on the 920e. Be interesting to see where the 520e goes, with all the anti-Chinese drone legislation.

    TYPHOON H PLUS Battery and Charging solution:

    Quick Update after obtaining the LiHV H520 Leads, which work great! I purchased a lightly used H520 kit 18-20 months back and didn't experiment with it much for a several months. Later examining the kit, 1 of the 3 batteries (Yuneec H520 OEM) wouldn't charge. It would fail instantly on OEM...

    TYPHOON H PLUS Battery and Charging solution:

    I have 4 Retail LiHV H520 Leads in package and 4 Leads made 3D Printer by @SkyVidTek. I've used the 3D Printer leads and they work great! I'll list Retail Leads in Classified if any interest.

    What the darn heck happened

    Late to comment on June thread... haven't flown the H520 in sometime and was cycling the batteries... and purposely bringing them down while watching volts... and triggered a RTH in driveway hover and a bit under a tree limb. Used to other platforms, quickly tried a few things to override... and...

    TYPHOON H PLUS Battery and Charging solution:

    It ended up that 2 Shops were willing to sell to USA. The one I received from was Kopterdreams @ 17EUR each. https://www.kopterdreams.de/ https://www.kopterdreams.de/Ladekabel-fuer-Yuneec-Typhoon-H--PLUS----H520.html A few days later, another shop replied that they now would send to USA...

    TYPHOON H PLUS Battery and Charging solution:

    Leads are beneficial, they allow connection to chargers and balance leads to maintence the condition of the batteries better. A 3rd party charger also allows greater flexibility in application of the charge & discharge. I purchased 3 3D printed leads from @SkyVidTek and they are excellent...

    EZ Cruz

    Shipping Overseas might be bigger variable than normal. I was purchasing from KopterDream and they had to modify shipping due to Covid19 polices. The normal low cost German Postage (10EU) was not allowed to send to USA due to Covid19 polices. Only DHL was allowed to ship and at a substantial...

    EZ Cruz

    I thought about mentioning TyPilot‘s SD, and edited out to give attention to OP‘s introduction of his device: EzCruz. They serve same purpose, and thus have similar design. There are differences: construction & material, method of placement, retention and method of incrementing the amount or...

    EZ Cruz

    This looks great, both in design & functionality. Great work! Appears to operate very nicely & with a quick eject if needed. I've never looked very close, that might work on other radios too... like the Cendence. I'll PM you... might add that to my production run in queue.;)

    TYPHOON H PLUS Battery and Charging solution:

    Appreciate the note, I did realize that,... I indicated "Charger Leads" > meaning separate cables. Not the balance lead contact tangs within charger housing. Would rather have the separate leads than physical 1 or 2 socket bulky charger... more bulky vs laying 2-4 batteries down in ft of...

    TYPHOON H PLUS Battery and Charging solution:

    Sounds Great... if you're willing to take the time to build them, I'm happy to wait. I'm in no hurry what to ever. The price of $25 has probably increased, which is acceptable... cover your material & time. The mod with a charger I entertained, but I'd like to have balance leads. I have the...

    Update failure HELP

    Wow... well that worked! I was told the home key, so I was tapping the "Home" symbol on screen. Middle looks like a "Menu" key... but that is the the HOME key. Taping it after power up.... I think on 2nd Power Up finally got it!
