I just bought 2 gifi packs from top chances at £94.99 via amazon listed as for 520 just the colour different

H Plus uses 4 cells at 15.2v, the H is 14.8v so I assume these cells would not do for a H plus, I have one pack with a dead cell other 3 OK.

Reading this I thought I would check mine, holds time after switch off , looses it after remove battery, but losses Wifi link with switch off. might try a full reset. Some time since I have used it, last time I had a funny error about needing to calibrate GPS, could not, would not accept default...

Seem to have missed something, is it a Typhoon H or h+. Check battery voltage, H will from new have 14.8v H+ will have 15.2 as does the 520. Just been buying some batteries, for my H+ quoted about £160, for a 520 got some at £98, only difference, colour.

Thanks for your info, Did eventually find the correct size, have put the connector together. Unfortunately I now go into Hospital for a shoulder replacement Op tomorrow. So extra pics of the unit will have to wait until I have two usable arms again. Going to be armless tomorrow.

So My new cable connector gave different resuls, depending on if I used an old balance checker. or the one I have have just won at my flying club. DUH! might be the new one is faulty, will have to do more checks. BUT thought that I would split the battery. Duh!, I like to know how things are...

I eventually made my own adapter, yuneec battery to normal balance charge connector similar to others, have jet to upload the progress, Not easy. had main problem, getting mini plugs. Going to pull a battery pack apart. Just to see what is in there. Sorry but I always do it. I like to know.

For longer flight times I would not mind it sticking out the back as long as it can be secured more than the original. I use velcro on my Helicopters.

I would have the worry if the replacement was OK. I bought one from Amazon, cheapest I could find. 1st one, locked up during upgrade, would not turn off or anything, had to pull battery, eventually managed to get it to run again, but not happy contacted Amazon for a replacement. 2nd went...

Yes. I fully agree. Just about, which way round it is fortunately we have the red green lights to know which way. Just a case of staying in vision, which is recommended. IF you cannot see it, all you have to go on is the video. OK most of the time. But.

Still having problems getting the smaller deans type plug. I can fix the normal deans together with the tip of a soldering iron. I have tried epoxy,, Not solid enough. just tried a section of a nylon bar, not solid enough, but can be used as a template. Will keep looking, but the definition of a...

If you use a bag, I put all on a non flammable surface.

Yes, personal preference and ease of use.

I am in UK, I am a member of BMFA.But club rules state that I should have a 'A' certificate member with me when I fly. So I need to get a 'A; certificated member to join me at the site when I want to practice. I have not flown helicopters for a few years, so need a lot of practice. As for...

Any one else come across this. I joined a club.# It seems that I am not allowed to fly unless I have a qualified, person with me. I need to practice my flying etc for a Drone/helicopter. Bit difficult unless a qualified person is present. So that means I cannot use the club facilities, until...
