    Typhoon H Motor Noise

    I tried Yuneec.com, but it isn’t there. I used the links given in this thread, and it takes me to a page with all the downloads for every Yuneec product, so I get to the right page. There’s no option to open the GUI, but the tab shown as download all files that pertain to this product. The GUI...

    Typhoon H Motor Noise

    I just tried to download the GUI from Yuneec. It won’t load. It causes network errors, and is identified as having a virus. It sometimes also says invalid file format. It’s an exe file, and I’m running Windows 10 on a laptop. Exe files should run.

    Typhoon H Motor Noise

    Hi— Getting my drones ready for the upcoming season. On a windows computer, the gui files won’t download or run. The errors are unsupported file type, or it says the files are infected with a virus 🦠, unsafe to run.

    Typhoon H Motor Noise

    Hi again— Thanks so much for this. I don’t use Windows— I’ve been using only iMac iOS and Safari on my iPhone and iPad. Is there a Mac compatible version of this?

    Typhoon H Motor Noise

    Hi— I didn’t know it was possible to run the motors one at a time. How do I do that?

    Typhoon H Motor Noise

    I have a Typhoon H hexacopter, and when I try to take off, I get a motor error and there’s a loud rattling sound, like something is lodged in one of the motors. If I take the propellers off and power up, the noise continues, so I put an ear up to each motor and try to determine where it’s coming...

    Gimbal Swapping

    I have an H920+ with the big CGO4 Camera. This thing is a beast. For $90, I bought an adapter that allows the CGO3+ gimbal to be mounted on the drone, and you get full functionality just like on the Typhoon. With the 3 batteries, I got 32 minutes of flight time. CGO4 takes Olympus Mount lenses...

    Swollen but balanced battery

    Put your fat batteries onto a balance charger, and cycle them several times. If you have a battery that won’t start to charge, set your charger to NiMh and give it one minute, at 1 amp of current per cell. It should then cycle normally on the LiPo setting. Cycle it several times. Ideally, the...

    Bargain basement ... with swollen batteries

    The Yuneec batteries are awful. After just a few flights they get fat. All LiPos do this; DJI puts a small space between cells that gives you alittle more time. My desk is full of fat batteries— they even charge all the way up, and the cells balance, but getting them in and out of the drone is a...

    Looking for a Tornado

    Hi— I have a brand new H920*, with CGO4, gimbal and handheld gimbal control. In factory packaging, never flown. Heavy field cases for both drone and CGO4 and its handheld ground control station, links to a smartphone. The drone’s field case has damage along one of the bottom edges, no harm done...

    Typhoon H - No WiFi connection and Camera Loss

    My Typhoon & ST16 did this same **** thing today. I have a second ST16 sitting in the box of my H920 plus, which I plan to fly this year. It seemed like a software problem at first, but a controller unable to do anything is my idea of a paperweight. I’ll keep you all posted. Any fixes? I can...

    Camera Type is not a Match

    I’m having this exact same problem. I just went out to fly, and the controller lock into the select camera screen, none of the selections binds, camera has power, but no control and no video. No functions on the st-16 work, and it is forever locked into the camera selection screen. No other...

    Blinking lights during battery charge

    This PDF file doesn’t download. I’ve retired the factory charger— the aftermarket one monitors all cells, and balances them nicely. It would be really nice if Yuneec had a % function to tell you what the actual remaining flight time is, like DJI. The only information about battery usage while...

    Blinking lights during battery charge

    Exact same thing happened to me today. Same light show, then I used a B6 V2 charger, and they charged properly. I think the Yuneec charger is trash 🗑. I had 2 more batteries with less than 10 flights on them get fat, and they won’t fit into the drone. I just have resigned myself to the fact that...
