    Is Yuneec on the brink of extinction?

    Maybe they just hunkered down and got serious for a while? As for job postings, that can be doe quietly. Hire who you know, post in the foreign press, I dunno. Hopefully they keep going. I'd like to see their product offerings expand, it's fun stuff. DJI has been so dominant, it's always...

    'Fixing' a location in the air to shoot time-lapse photos and vids

    The program UAV toolbox is what I'm using on my Typhoon H. It allows you to save edit and save a CCC route on your PC, so the drone can fly the exact route everytime. I've used it a few times and really like it. If you search the term up on the forums there's some really strong and helpful...

    Is Yuneec on the brink of extinction?

    Cabin, Nicely sourced, and thoughtful. Still all inferences. Doom and gloom will not make Yuneec close,and it's not proof they are. I do agree the current administration's politics is hurting the people in this forum. I do agree Yuneec has scaled back. But compare that to DJI, who is taking a...

    Not just Yuneec...

    I'd guess they have had a few inquiries regarding those capabilities, and shuffled someone with expertise over to the states from Huawei. Are they good guys or bad guys or just working stiffs? Is our current government secretly hoping to have Chinese level surveillance capabilities? Or maybe...

    Time lapse issue

    So for the gear - they currently work, the way they're supposed to. It's just when I turn on the drone, they switch is not available until almost a minute after the drone connects to the ST16. That being the case and me having no spare drone, I am loath to open it up. Eventually yes, but...

    Time lapse issue

    So that was weird. On it's back, first like 30 seconds, switch does nothing. After a WHILE, I get it to move 1 leg like an inch. Get pissed, switch off and on, same thing. So, 3rd time, again, like a minute to do anything, and then finally 1 leg moves an inch. Get pissed start rapidly...

    Time lapse issue

    OK News update : So the Card had the time lapse pics. WTH. They did NOT show up when I looked at the SD card in the controller; they did not show up when I looked at the SD card in the gallery function of the ST16. They only show up in the laptop when I put the card in the slot. Go figure...

    Time lapse issue

    Doh! Did I really put this thread in the Q500 forum ? It's been a long week. Anyways - I apologize. Brain fart. To answer - Do time lapse on the bench? That's possible??? Hmm I've got to try that. Tomorrow. As for screenshots, I'll do that at the same time.
