I view this as only the camera has been breached. You could get another camera, eventually. If you had a problem with the hexacopter vs just the camera, do you need to send the camera back as well. Frankly I'm not sure how Yuneec would view this limited access to the TH inner components. Someone...

ChrisM, I have no problem in paying for a quality product, which I look for every day, all day. I just don't like ambiguous marketing, and so far, lack of follow up support materials as was described.

Check out this video by Bo Lorentzen where he and a camera enthusiast hack a TH CGO3. They make the point that even at the best focus the CGO3 lens is plastic and not very sharp. They swap it out for a glass Sony lens I believe. See how the factory lens is glued...

I'm starting to get annoyed with Yuneec's marketing strategies... When I pre-ordered TH, the information led me (It seems many others as well) to believe that it came with the RealSense module on board. Even before I received my TH, I was trying to procure more batteries, as only 1 is...

Has anyone been able to procure spare batteries yet? If so from where?

Does anyone have experience with the Epson Movario BT200 or BT300 smart glasses? They are not full virtual reality but a heads-up-display technology, that looks interesting because you can still see your drone without taking the glasses off.

Yes, updating the antenna to a more directional profile with a higher gain is the trick for longer distances with less cut-out.

Yuneec uses Wifi technology in that command radio frequency is on 2.4GHz, but your modem (without going into too much tech talk) has an antennae optimized for near field, almost dome like coverage. Where as the ST16 radio to Hexcopter has a very directional antenna design.

If I understand your description correctly the 32 & 64 refers to a 32-bit and 64-bit PC Operating System respectively, which is what windows 10 comes as...depends on your OS which file you need.

Documentation is very light and confusing... when you get your drone take your time and view all available setup video's. I have not dared to update my firmware yet as I have read of issues that turn the Typhoon into a brick. Other than the lack of spare batteries i have had 3 successful...

Actually after a 2nd look, the box shows it originated from Rockaway Park, NY.

There was no tracking number supplied. I only Know that they said it shipped on 13 May and arrived 28.

I am in the Vancouver, BC region and have received my Typhoon H on Sat 28 May. Unfortunately they forgot to pack a 3-prong cable to feed AC power to the DC converter for charging. I have since figured out I can use the cable from my laptop and have acquired a new cable from an electronics store...
