Looks good thanks.

Please add me... River88 Typhoon Q500 4K Registered Pilot 43°38'48.8"N 79°33'32.6"W standard blue point Thanks

Thank you... that worked perfectly. Up and flying again.

Hi folks….. crashed my Q500 4K..... broken arm. It just would not respond properly when trying to land. Maybe I accidently put it in SMART mode..... but not sure. I was bringing it back because I didn't like how it was performing at 300 feet. If anyone has time here to review the data I could...

Hi... the Q500+ hit a tree and dropped about 8 feet into soft damp grass. Broke one prop. The CGO2 broke away. But the 2 connectors look mostly intact and were just pulled from the input jack. The pins seem to be unaffected. But I am not sure where the wires plug back into. If I run these leads...

I am about to charge up two brand new Gifi batteries I recently got (7500 and 6400). I made note of the battery status before starting so I can monitor them long term. I am using the Hitec X2 charger. I went through all its system settings and noticed 'Battery Capacity'. It was set to 5000 mAh...

I just joined too. It's the batteries that are the weak link in cold weather. They will just last a few minutes. The key is to keep them at room temp or warmer till the moment you insert them. I heard even putting a toe warmer inside the bay is helpful. But I have not tried that. I am from...

Thanks Steve.. great info! Sounds like I need to upgrade. I was reluctant last year after hearing about issues with a firmware. So I ignored it till now. Both my Q500 + and Q 4K have been working great. They 1.4 I saw was on the st10 for the 4K. I didn't check the drone version but I know it is...
