Ha. Thanks for the concise answer. Can you recommend any transmitters? :)

Been looking at getting building a racer FPV drone and wondering if I can program the ST16 as a universal transmitter? I know it has advanced channel settings... Can it communicate a third-party flight controller?

Let me add to this thread for posterity that this issue was resolved when I: 1. downgraded the GUI to v1.07 2. Used the Yuneec provided USB cable (no idea why but hey, it works now :mad::rolleyes: )

I really hope not, I can't solder! :oops: but if fiddling with the contacts doesn't produce anything that'll be the next thing I check.

No, not really. The ST-16 had become uncalibrated so I had some drifting issues which I fixed via calibrating/factory reseting. I also recently had a quick landing that caused one of the gimbal dampers to come undone, but no apparent damage.

#6 over on this thread is suggesting poor seating/corrosion on the contacts. This fella on YouTube has some helpful tips. I'll try fiddling/scrubbing the contacts tonight. Any other ideas? Thoughts on a cleaning fluid for the contacts. Looks like they're brass maybe?

Recently went through calibration **** with the ST-16. Used the "secret" calibration menu and did a factory reset and finally have it and the Typhoon H working great again. Unfortunately, now the gimbal won't tilt or pan when I input on K1 and K2. According to the Hardware Monitor they are...

Thanks everybody!!

Ha. It definitely is a better controller :D What an incredible naive mistake though!

I'm unfamiliar with the term. What exactly is a "color box"?

Huh okay, so $150-$200 is not unusual? Where are those eBay guys getting them from I wonder...?

I'm thinking about getting a second ST16 to have for a camera operator to use and I'm seeing wildly different prices online. Anyone know what's a ripoff, what's a scam, and what's a good deal? See links below: $700 Vertigo Drones $370 Amazon $180 Ebay?!?!

haha. Yeah Wow, I didn't realize the CGO4 was 1200g to the CGO3+'s 255. It doesn't look that much bigger in the pictures but yeah, wow...

I sure hope so. Looks like the C23 will be fixed 23mm? I wish the CGO4 was compatible with the H, I would kill for some interchangeable lenses (instead of interchangeable $1000 cameras o_O)

True. Sadly, only Yuneec can program how the CGO3+ operates. It really ought to hold settings same as any DSLR or other prosumer camera. My Shutter Speed, WB, ISO, shooting mode really ought to stay in place - it's a huge time waster to have to reset them every time. Does Yuneec receive feature...
