    H Plus Hot motor !

    one of my motors was hotter than the others, it finally stopped and landed with 5 motors, I replaced that one motor and it's fine again, better get a motor/arm quick, it took 3 weeks to get one in but only 10 minutes to swap out

    MOTOR ERROR

    Okay today I can FINALLY give y'all an update on my motor error, I received the motor I ordered finally and installed, it's fixed... I launched and it hovered just fine with all the motors working well, held the hover for 4 minutes then landed. Thankyou all for the great info and replies, that...

    MOTOR ERROR

    I was afraid it could be something else (electronics) but the motor/arm replacement seemed simple troubleshooting and if it's not I can use an extra arm someday, it seems they aren't making the Typhoon H anymore so spare parts might be good to stock up on... waiting on the new part then I will...

    MOTOR ERROR

    Thanks for the info, I've never looked into flight logs on the ST16, are there any tutorial video links floating around ? I didn't see or feel anything different within the motors, I started it with blades and noticed one did not even start, I ordered a motor/arm assy while still available, hope...

    MOTOR ERROR

    I flew my H yesterday with no problems, but today I launched and noticed a visible speed issue with one motor, I hovered for a few seconds to see if there was a problem and then it went into 5 motor error mode, I landed no problem but wasn't sure which motor gave the problem. I tried to start...

    Lost compass calibration

    I dropped my typhoon H off at Fortress UAV in Plano Tx, they were recommended by Yuneec as a repair facility near me, seemed like a good place, I even asked if they needed any more techs to work there as I'd love to learn more about the working side beyond what I've already done to mine. 7 to...

    Aircraft/drone collisions

    If you've registered your drone to get an FAA number, the website also recommends the app "B4UFLY" which is by the FAA and will not only tell you how close to an airport you are but allows you to log 1) how high will you fly. 2) how far will you fly. 3) how long will you fly there. I'm...

    Lost compass calibration

    once my drone crashed I removed battery and didn't power it up till I had replaced the arm and wired in motor, all seemed good, I never unplugged the GPS module just laid the top back out of the way to avoid any disturbance. once it was fixed I powered it up to be sure led on that motor leg was...

    Lost compass calibration

    Today I returned to the scene of the crime... open field, faced my Typhoon H north and tried calibration, after initial startup and getting past the error message I was able to enter the calibration compass mode... as soon as 2 of the lights lit it immediately went back to LED status indicator...

    Lost compass calibration

    The "compass" or gps module is in the top cap of the unit "typhoon H" with wires connecting it to the mainboard, it's under some sticky tape to keep it flush with the cap, I've seen some repair videos on youtube that show testing the battery on the gps unit itself... anyway my unit probably...

    Lost compass calibration

    Actually, (a bit embarrassed) I was flying beneath some trees as I had before and as I took it out of "smart" mode going to "angle" mode, I accidentally went too far into "home" mode sending it to it's home elevation of 65 feet, too bad the old oak trees weren't that tall and it smashed into the...

    Lost compass calibration

    I recently replaced an A motor arm that had broken, now it says the same message about landing in angle mode and calibrating, but my calibration fails every time after just first entering the cal mode, I verified the GPS sensor is plugged in after removing top for arm replacement... any ideas...
