    firmware update

    Many thanks for your help Eagle Eyes. I have had success (with a bit of trial and error) in the update.

    firmware update

    Thanks Eagle Eyes. H updated successfully but the ST16 did not. I get the message "upgrade package not find! (sic). This file is 437.1 mb and shows as a document. Is this right or should it be some other format?

    firmware update

    I noticed my new H, purchase April 2018 had old firm ware. Went to Yuneec website and downloaded the files to the supplied SD card (noticed that the old FW version had a warning on the website not to fly with that version - Is this true?). Put the SD card into the ST16 and went to perform the...

    Charging ST16 controller charging

    A huge thanks to AH-1G, rdonson and PatR for your advice in helping me sort out the charging issue. I have exchanged the whole package (at Costco) for a new one and everything charged up as was intended. But your quick response and desire to help makes me realize that I have joined the right...

    Drone clubs in Sydney Australia

    I'm new to the sport of drone flying and am looking for a club in Sydney Australia (near Castle Hill) to join. Does anyone know of such a thing? Thanks in advance.

    Charging ST16 controller charging

    Thanks for your help PatR. The blue light would do a slow blink coupled with a quiet click sound. Tapping the screen in any instance would not bring up the battery state image. Time to return and exchange. Cheers, Mim

    Charging ST16 controller charging

    Hi Ron, Thanks for the picture and advice. Mine looks the same but it did not appear that the connector could pull apart. That said, thinking about it now I realize I should have applied some pressure to see if it would separate. All academic now as I am on my way to exchange the ST16.

    Charging ST16 controller charging

    I've looked in the battery compartment but did not notice a simple connector. It seems that there are wires running from the battery into the case. Thus would need to open the case to find where the battery connects to the system.

    Charging ST16 controller charging

    Thanks AH-1G. I did charge the ST overnight so presumably long enough. When I get home I will try your suggestion. Should I turn on the ST first then tap the screen twice (in rapid succession), or tap the screen while the unit is still off? When I do this, will the screen open and show me...

    Charging ST16 controller charging

    I purchased a new Typhoon H and followed the directions for charging the ST16 controller. However, when I push the button to 'on' the blue light blinks slowly but the screen never opens. Am I missing something or is the controller/battery defective? Just don't want to return for exchange and...

    New to the group

    Hi. Never flew a drone before but bought the Typhoon H yesterday! Is there an in depth user manual available anywhere? The instructions that came with the H are extremely basic and I would much prefer to study more detail before my first flight. Thanks in advance.
