    Hurricane Helene

    I spent 5 days at my mothers house with her a 84 year old neighbor, my two elderly sisters and the family dog after Katrina. in 100 degree+ heat and humidity.... I could write a book about those days. We saw so much destruction Americans arent used to seeing. so much death. One of her neighbors...

    OEM battery that looks swollen

    I bought one of these 2 years ago. Dropped it and the case separated......Still gives me 20 minutes plus flying time!

    GPS module

    power it up without propellers!!!!! sit it in the middle of a field or park, away from power lines and all metal for about an hour. Internal gps memory may need to update? It could be a broken wire, bad flight controller module or gps. The problem may go away...... and comeback! learn how to...

    New to Me Typhoon

    you may have to charge it the same way you do a firmware update thru the side port on the drone. its a regular usb, not a usb c. That will probably take a couple of days to charge though .........the square is a relocated gps for better signal reception. You may be able to find a charger on...

    A Scary Flight after installing Remote ID Module

    I've been there....everything is fine until it isnt and you have no idea whether its going to fly away or just drop out of the sky! Great save! Altitude and shut off gps is what I do. Just hit calibrate, and gps off. Something you might wanna practice.

    Is my Typhoon H safe?

    I love My H!!!! What everyone else has said I can only add......... practice switching off GPS and flying back to you without it! Regulary, until you can do so relatively quickly. In the event of a fly away it may be the only way to regain control of your airframe before it either hits...

    Typhoon H Plus camera comparison with the EVO 2 pro v3

    The platform deserves a better creator. The Evo is definetly a powerhouse in a small package but everything it does could be easily replicated. And better! if Yuneec gave a ****. 6-7 years later theres nothing short of an Inspire that even comes close in terms of making a statement whe the props...

    I love the airframe. It deserves a better company than Yuneec

    Compass warning / magnetic interference warnings

    Hi Sorry for the late response. Yes. Thats excatly what I meant. Loss of GPS need not be the end of your drone. Ive done the antenna mount, bought fresh batteries calibrated out of the wazoo.... periodically, flying from the same places I dont get any warnings. I get all the things you...

    Is IPS an inside joke?

    You wanna fly a 6 blade minature weedeater .....in your house!?! I dont fly my 480 within a 1/ 4 mile of anything but trees and livestock..... theres just no time to react if it desides to plow thru your ceiling or a wall. a 16x16 garage is iffy to imo 🤣

    Swollen but balanced battery

    SWOLLEN BATTS ARE TICKING TIME BOMBS! Trust me, I had one that I just used to warm up and get satellites. It showed a full charge, so i took it up about 10 ft in my drive way. It hovered and then went 90 mph over my house. I killed the gps and brought it back just in time, it fought me all the...

    Compass warning / magnetic interference warnings

    Crazy question....... Wheres your smart phone when you fly......and wheres the other persons, when they fly? Just a word of advice. If you cant figure it out, youre on a countdown for a fly away. Practice flying without gps...... alot! Especially after take off. Thank me later.
