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...

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...

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...

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...

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...

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...

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...

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...

I tried to charge 2 new batteries today, and with both the charger lights went from solid red to red and green alternating, then blue started blinking along with red and green. I put the batteries on a B6 V2 balance charger, and both balanced and charged as they should. Do I have a defective...

New and old batteries do the same thing:— red comes on solid, then blinking green. Red gets brighter, then blue comes on bright for just a second, then the cycle repeats. Beeps alot. one battery is brand new— and I just bought a second new one. One is from last year, and I have another that...

My Typhoon H did this. The reason is because one of the tiny wires soldered to the top plate of the gimbal mount came detached. Three of the other four wires fell off when I opened it up. The five wires are not much thicker than a strand of human hair, and they’re attached to the contact plate...

I bought an H920 a few months ago, cycled the 3 batteries, and they seem ok— but I haven’t yet flown this drone. The last thing I need is to take a very expensive rig up and have it drop out of the sky because a battery craps out. Will Yuneec cover their batteries, or better yet, a drone if...

I saw this in the store in Attleboro, Ma. It was tempting, but I already have 9 drones.

Bestbuy is selling this drone brand new for $99

Hi — How much do you want for this, and would you consider a trade for decked out Apple iMac with every tweak and extra you could pray for on Christmas? Please advise. Thanks
