    Got my bird back!!!

    Well I finally got the H back. Over 2 months!! They had my bird for over 2 months to fix something that should have taken 2 weeks! On top of the poor service I got from the warranty centre, the drone was returned to me sans charger (they returned the cradle but neglected to include the power...

    parachute size for typhoon H ?

    I would think you would want to be thinking more about weight and drag coefficient. You don't want to add a lot of weight to your flights but you want something that's going to bring your disabled H safely to earth. AGPtek has one that's only 4.8oz (40" chute) that should fit your parameters...

    How long to get your H repaired?

    Yeah, it's actually a Staples that does repairs for Yuneec in Canada. I had been dealing with Yuneec cs in Ontario, California and they had me send my H to the Staples in Mississauga for repair.

    How long to get your H repaired?

    I'm more than a little peeved. I sent my H in for repair back in the beginning of December (on my own dime) and the repair centre for Canada received it December 12. I am still waiting. I also contacted the repair centre a number of times only to get the runaround from them (excuses of...

    Anyone try different props yet?

    There are no 4 bladed props for the TH to my knowledge...unless some mad scientist with a 3d printer has designed their own with mounting hubs that fit exactly and a blade length that prevents them from interfering with neighbouring blades. Doesn't sound feasible to me. I'm pretty sure that it...

    Anyone try different props yet?

    You have to trim these? I just bought a set for my H and haven't been able to try them because it's still in warranty/repair. Seems odd that you would need to modify them when they're listed as for the H. Not too big a deal...I have a Dremel, but still doesn't make much sense that you would need...

    Venom finally joins the TH battery line-up

    Only trays I've seen are way too expensive. I understand they allow you to use a multitude of other batteries, but batteries aren't that cheap to make that price point worth it.

    Typhoon H - Further price drop

    Not necessarily. A $300-$500 drop is considerable but not groundbreaking. There could be any number of reasons for the drop and it may even be temporary. The Typhoon H is still a top tier craft and the updates keep coming (the wind says January brings a new one with new features). I'm sure...

    Typhoon H - Further price drop

    I bought my H a month ago for $1299 and 2 weeks later I see that same store selling them for $899. I talked to the manager and he just told me to bring my receipt in and they'll reimburse me the difference. Lucky break.

    Got my bird back!!!

    I had to send mine to a Canadian service centre in Mississauga. They told me to send it there but then emailed me an RMA label to send it via UPS to the California facility (obviously a mistake but I had sent it already anyway via Canada Post). I contacted Yuneec about a status update and they...

    Got my bird back!!!

    Just curious....what was the turnaround time from sending it out to warranty and getting it back? I sent mine out and tracking says it was delivered to the warranty centre Dec 12. It was just the camera/gimbal that was being looked at and I'm starting to wonder what's the holdup.

    Antenna Mod Help Please

    We'll that'll really help....start off your post by calling everyone here a liar. You're new to this social thing, aren't you? You're in a forum. You're going to get many different opinions from many different people. Some may contain truths, regardless of how much they differ. You talk about...

    GPS Malfunction and Crash

    That's good to hear. I had a similar issue with mine after an update (October issue). Everything was fine when I did my calibrations and initial flight. Then the UAV unexpectedly dipped and veered off into a lamp standard. Knocked the camera and gimbal free, which fell to it's death. I don't...

    Choosing a video card for the TH camera

    I always understood the Class10 SD cards were necessary for full 1080 video recording but I haven't made myself aware of the UHS or VSC speed classes...until now. I guess it stands to reason that the C10 SD card that came with the Typhoon is like the bare minimum for 4K recording and probably...
