    Night flying.....

    I love flying at night. Its easy to see the craft because of the lights. The only thing you have to be careful of is the elevation. Take some "safe" elevation readings during the day, i.e. above power lines or anything elevated, then make sure that after you launch, you are above that height. By...

    Doesn't look like Jello. Jello would be all across the picture. I don't know what it is but its effecting the bottom left and the top right differently.

    Can You See ME? (Legal line of sight)

    Its a speck all right. You have to use the TX for directional help.

    Holiday Season is Coming up and I need your help!

    It all depends on your sons interests. If he just wants to fly something and is not interested in flight programs and doing special things like follow this object, than the 500 is great. If you think he will really get into this as a hobby than the Phantom 4 is the ticket. Its about $500 more...

    Can You See ME? (Legal line of sight)

    I just flew my 4K after the antenna Mod to the ST10+. In town I get about 3200' @ 100' el. I am 63, and that's about as far as I can see it in the sky. How about You? Mike

    Finally took the punge into doing the ST10+ Mod

    I Just completed mine on Monday but the solar storms have been so bad that I didn't try it out until this morning. I could get about 1600' stock. With the mod I got about 3100 feet at 100' elevation. I don't know about you, but that is about as far as my eyes can see the bird. I am happy with...

    Camera tilt related to compass?

    UPDATE: I sent the Q back under warranty and after about 4weeks it was returned from Yuneec. I also had them update the software.It seems the latest is 29 as that is what is installed. Everything works great! Looks like a happy ending. Mike

    Camera tilt related to compass?

    Well the intermittent tilt is still there. If I reboot the quad it corrects. I hate to send everything back to YUNEEC but I have to have this corrected. Has anyone solved this or send it back?

    Camera tilt related to compass?

    I have the intermittent camera tilt. Just by chance I happened to yaw the quad 360 degrees and it seemed to me that it was level when the camera was facing north and south. With this is mind I decided to perform another compass cal. This seemed to solve the problem so far, (only 3 flights). Has...
