    Breeze 4k App

    Worked for me a couple of times. Now it's back to shutting down after I start the app.

    Thanks DM

    Can’t get a wifi hotspot.

    Update: I picked the Breeze up and noted that the skin around the optical lenses was extremely hot. I removed the underbelly cover and confirmed that the circuit board was hot to the touch. I immediately exposed the circuit board to my window AC for about a minute, replaced the cover, and...

    Can’t get a wifi hotspot.

    Good evening all, So I took the Breeze up a little while ago to get some arial video of a fireworks show down river about 2 miles. Everything went fine with the first flight; I landed to change out batteries and, upon powering up, I cannot get a green light for a wifi connection. I’ve tried...

    I knew this was going to happen

    Completely agree with you. All too often law abiding hobbyists, gun owners, internet users, etc are the only ones to be penalized for the activities of the criminal element. I’ve said it often, laws keep honest people honest; to attempt to enact laws to make criminals honest or institute...

    I knew this was going to happen

    I did some research on the topic and found that it was run in a number of media outlets, including The Washington Times, and Newsweek. The link to the Times’ article is below. While the reaction of the extraction team is alarming, it is not surprising to me. Being in Public Safety for over...

    Breeze Photography

    I can’t say enough about the camera on the Breeze, especially for the price. As I read through various posts, I see comments about shaky video, and/or grainy pictures. I’m here to tell you that the Breeze can take some beautiful shots, even in varying flight conditions. Here are some pictures...

    New here I have a few questions about the Breeze

    Lol; I think Scott meant you would SAVE yourself many headaches, not HAVE! Anyway he’s right about answering the questions and knowing how your particular phone interacts with the breeze. Welcome and happy flying!

    AMA Membership: Worth it?

    Thanks everyone for the comments. I took the three month introductory offer and am waiting for my membership card. I’ve looked at two clubs nearby and plan on contacting them this week.

    AMA Membership: Worth it?

    So, as is always the case when I wake up 3 hours before my alarm, I was browsing other Yuneec topics and saw a few suggestions to join the Academy of Model Aeronautics (AMA). I applied for a three month trial membership and then browsed a few local AMA chartered flying clubs; none of which...

    BREEZE RECALL - NOT TRUE !!!

    Called my local Walmart to see if they knew anything about a recall and they said they hadn’t. As a matter of fact, the guy said they sold four Breezes this week.

    Found Breeze 4k in my yard. How would i find its owner?

    If it has a “FA” number somewhere on it, it was registered with the FAA and you should be able to id the owner that way as well.

    Breeze crash/ spare parts and other questions!

    That’s exactly what I did! The crash forgiveness plan is 90USD so might as well get a new one which not only gives you spare parts, but an extra battery, controller, and charger! I had a catastrophic episode similar to yours, read about it in my reply to Scott in Colorado.

    So do we have a problem? Drones that 'fly away'

    Just had a catastrophic event with my breeze. I was flying fine and the Breeze was about 220 feet away when it went into an orbiting pattern. It would not respond to my stick movements so I called it home. As it was returning, the orbits started increasing in circumference until it clipped a...
