Thanks to all for your prompt response. Got it back on track. Semper Fi

I took out my Typhoon H for a spin about 30 miles from where I normally Fly. When I landed the motors went to idle but the on/off button on the controller would not shut off the motors. I may have accidentally cycled the on/off button upon landing? I tried pushing the on/off on the drone but...

Get your Typhoon H GUI Here: Downloads Typhoon H I connected my H to my computer with the Yuneec USB cable. In the program there is a Edit pull down and in that there is a "Connect Ways". I choose USB, no go! The only way I could get it to work was to select Serial Port. Even then it took...

Thanx to all. I yield to your sage experience.

Most rechargeable batteries have a manufacturers suggestion that you train them to get the most out of a charge. Generally it is suggested you take them all the way to zero charge several times so you will get optimum performance. (Not suggested while in the air.) When this Newbie was flying...

Interesting idea. How common are Lipo fires? What general activity is most likely to cause one? Is just storage a source of concern? My Gun Safe has a internal power outlet but is full of expensive WWII Curios and Relics. I have other smaller valuables safes but they do not have power inside.

The war on drones continues. The center piece is the bogus drone by the lava shot. ‘Turn it off’: how technology is killing the joy of national parks

re calibrating the compass and accelerometer Is this process necessary anytime you change flight locations?

Would it have been proper when in doubt switch to Home?

My Typhoon H came with the USB Simulator Stick in the box I purchased at Costco. Thank you so much for the instructions on Binding to the simulator. Without them I would have needed to recruit a neighborhood ten year old to help me. Too complicated for this OF to figure out.

I was very pleased that the package came with a flight simulator. I was looking forward to some serious training before taking on any difficult flying situations. Well I loaded my software, plugged in the USB Simu-Connector and then got stuck. Called Yuneec in CA and a Tech helped me set up a...

Is there a condition where you would choose clover over patch?

Thanx

When I purchased my Typhoon H recently the ST16 came out of the box with three antennas. One small flat faced antenna flanked by two 5" rod antennas. In the accessories box there was a fourth mushroom antenna. The documentation only shows two antennas on the ST16, one 5" and the mushroom. I...

Just purchased my first drone, Typhoon H. Before flying I updated firmware. Just checked the camera setting and it's 3840x2160 30fps. Since I never change anything this must be standard with new drones or firmware update?
