    Sheesh, 3 days and no chatter

    Where can one even buy a Yuneec product anymore? Sorry to say but it looks to me Yuneec is out of the consumer drone business.

    Strange silence around the H3

    it really is disappointing because as a flier the Typhoon is tough to beat. Also with 360 degree camera and for filming I like the ability to do video without needing to turn the drone with the camera.

    I was under the impression the H3 was in stock for purchase but can't find it anywhere. What gives?

    Strange silence around the H3

    Did Yuneec ever get a true mission planner? There are things I really like about my H, but IMO Yuneec has really lacked in software. I looked at a Autel EVO 2 Pro. At ~$1800 it is incredible, 6k camera, full mission planning, 40 minute flight time and multiple sensors. DJI may have met their...

    Upcoming Landmark Airspace/Property Rights Case

    the back of my pickup is not the ground. Or is it

    Typhoon H battery

    $140. Just wow. And to think Tattu (Ultrax) was offering them for less than half that IIRC. I'll stick with the above solution and get nearly 4 for the price of one Yuneec OEM. But first I need to check some things out as yesterday the H was acting like it was trying to fly away; sure hope...

    LAANC Available to Recreational Drone Operators

    I haven't flown my H for quite a while nor kept up with updates. Last I heard Yuneec was no longer doing any updates for the H, so it is doubtful they will do anything to assist in these rule changes so we can fly where it was once verboten. I don't have a 107 nor plan to, but Yuneec should...

    Typhoon H battery

    This has probably been posted, and if I want to continue flying my H now that my batteries are becoming useless, ordered this Typhoon H battery adaptor and his recommendation for a battery. I've thought about getting the H Plus, but want a smaller unit. The Anafi is on sale at BB, but parts...

    Typhoon H battery

    I've been doing battery mods on my Solo's for quite some time. It's a PITA but the only way to keep them in the air and at least Tattu still supplies the battery AFAIK. The only reason I keep the Solo's is because quite honestly IMO they still have the best flight control system and more...

    Typhoon H battery

    I'm talking about finding a good battery today, not the future. Most of my batteries are the factory units and the life is about gone. I had two that got ruined from water (rain) getting in the backpack and shorting them out so promptly drilled drain holes. I then bought a few when on sale...

    Battery

    How long should you drive on bald tires in winter during an ice storm? QED

    Typhoon H battery

    So where exactly are batteries available for the Typhoon H? I had good luck with the Ultrax but can't find a source. I tried one GiFi; was the only one that failed prematurely. Not interested. Now that the Anafi is pretty much officially dead, getting a quality small drone at a good price is...

    Compass Relocation

    Have been away for quite a while. You're right and having had considerable experience with GPS/compass issues on DYI and 3DR Solo I'm not opposed to modding, but really, after all this time Yuneec hasn't nailed down the navigation system yet? Is is a heat issue or what? Spring is rapidly...

    Is discharging at 5A fast and safe?

    I have used a PC "true" 1000 watt or larger PSU as I have some large LiPo batteries (20k) to charge at 1c or close to it. Lower power PSU's from a retired PC work fine for smaller LiPo's like the Yuneec products. For the charger I use i-Chargers. Going on 5 years with the the 308B. Anyone...

    BUILD XXX

    When I opened the front door today I could barely see the sun because of all the drones in the air; falling from the sky by the thousands and crashing into planes 20000 ft alt. Total chaos. A 400' limit would be an effective ban on gliders and large RC aircraft. Just plain stupid. I'll bet...
