    using a CG03 on a Typhoon H

    Count me among them... I bought just the grip months ago and did just that...CG03+ mounted to actiongrip. Then I just bought the actiongrip combo (with CG03) a week ago as they were deeply discounted. Surely someone has tried it and will post their results. If they don't guess I will have...

    using a CG03 on a Typhoon H

    A very logical suggestion... But, I'm unwilling to risk frying a new CGO3 or cause harm to my much loved Typhoon H if the pins don't align or some other unknown problem is waiting to reveal itself.

    using a CG03 on a Typhoon H

    Just got a Yuneec steady/action grip with a CG03 camera...Anybody ever try using this camera on a Typhoon H? Yeah, I know there won't be any panning capabilities... But, will it work otherwise? Thought perhaps as a backup camera, a different FOV, or better factory focus then the CG03+ camera...

    2.4 GHz walkie talkies safe to have around?

    Any transmitter sharing the same band as the H should be avoided. Harmonics can interfere as well, so any multiples of 2.4 GHz should be kept away. I think the H uses more of a spread spectrum technology.... So, it does co-exists with regular WiFi signals--- But those WiFi signals are limited...

    Typhoon H - Further price drop

    B&H had both models on sale for about a week before and through Christmas.... $799 and $1199. They had them for $100 more for a few days and included a "free" $100 B&H gift card. The price went up to retail on 12/31 and now discounted on 1/1 ---But still not as "cheap" as it was around...

    Antenna Mod Help Please

    Actually…. The FCC granted authorization on the Typhoon H and ST16 with fixed/non removable antennas on the ST16 (as Yuneec stated in their test results). There is a reason why all the other manufacturers have fixed antennas --- To pass FCC type acceptance. Yes, it seems all of our mods...

    Dual Band Control Redundancy…Okay….

    Keep in mind I modified my H and moved the antennas externally with cable and WiFi style omnis --- (Not just a wire antenna) Yep.... I can accept your conclusion.... Good point about upgrading and the SD card in the camera. I would be interested to know when the 5.8GHz "takes over" and what...

    Dual Band Control Redundancy…Okay….

    I would believe that the contact terminals from the H to the camera only send voltage to the gimbal and camera itself -- Perhaps there is some type of feedback signal that tells the H how the gimbal is responding and to make sure it is balanced? I would conclude that the internal WiFi board on...

    Dual Band Control Redundancy…Okay….

    But the camera run independent to the telemetry and it's receiver does not communicate with the H itself. There is an internal WiFi board… Guess it now uses both bands. Just trying to figure out if I need to swap antennas at any point and if the redundancy only occurs as a backup and how (or...

    Dual Band Control Redundancy…Okay….

    Sounds promising….. But what about the antennas on the H? Many of us moved the two to external and used 2.4GHz 3DBi omnis ---- Not exactly tuned to 5.8GHz.
  11. H

    Dual Band Control Redundancy…Okay….

    Now that we have "Dual Band Control Redundancy"…. What does that mean to us that have modified our H's with two external antennas and added an external antenna to the ST16? We know the camera uses 5.8GHz…. The two external antennas on the H are 2.4 GHz for telemetry. The antenna I added to...

    Yuneec Typhoon H Pro (New never opened) $900.00

    So is everyone else….. This was posted a week ago, by a new member, who went MIA. A great price…Perhaps too good to be true. POOF, he is not responding. Hope he does and someone gets this great price.

    Latest mod, long range antenna on the H

    You've got to keep in mind that the 2 watts is optimum output with a certain input signal level. While it can amplify up to 2 watts, the drive has to be within a certain dB range to get that 2 watts. If the H outputs on 50mw, The output might only be 500mw and not 2000mw (2 watts). Above...

    Latest mod, long range antenna on the H

    I'm always one for a low loss cable--In my two way radio work I always use the best for repeater sites and home stations....But, with the thicker cables, it is so hard to route them around inside the controller and H, and then they put more stress on the connectors on either end which could...

    Sent your CGO3+ to Yuneec for refocus? Well…..

    Riverrunner… Saw you post that before…. I'll try that method again. Just wasn't patient enough with all the images and reviewing them and tweaking. My focus seems razor sharp at 20-100 feet… Beyond that… Not so happy. I wonder if natural haze might be more of a factor then the actual focus...
