As someone who has been a State Trooper for 18 years I will be the first to tell you that there are those 10% of LEOs that are uneducated and short tempered, just like there are those 10% of citizens that make up 90% of our problems. I have several law enforcement and fire fighter friends who...

Ha, ha. I can relate.

I applied my FAA number, name & phone number before I ever took my first flight, so obviously I have no problem with this.

Any idea why Yuneec hasn't added any new functionality to their software/firmware for over a year now? I went flying with a friend who has a DGI drone and there were a lot of built in apps that came with his drone that Yuneec is lagging behind in. Very disappointing!

Atomic08 provided you with a link to a discussion about the Green Arrow while Angle flight mode. It would benefit you to read through that thread as I had no clue what that green arrow was trying to tell me until I found the answers on this blog. I don’t believe this is in that thread, but...

I have come close to leaving my camera cover on my CGO3+ during pre-flight, so I solved that problem with this extremely low-cost solution. Passing this info along in case it helps anyone else. I bought these "Remove Before Flight" tags from ebay and they work perfect. They come from China...

I just format mine while it's still in the CGO3+ camera utilizing the ST16 camera settings cog icon to get to the Format SD Card menu option. Works great on both my factory supplied 16GB card as well as the 64GB card I purchased. Note: I'm writing this from memory, so I may have some of the...

Interesting. I just got my H right after Christmas and had the same thing happen where one of my 4 rubber grommets came loose and luckily it was wedged between the camera mounting plate and the top of the camera assembly, so I didn't lose it. I thought it was odd for this to come loose since I...

Sorry to rub it in guys, but it's in the 70s (F) here in Florida, so I don't need to simulate during the winter. Stay warm!

Have you formed a preference between the Ultrax and Powerextra batteries? I want to purchase two more and looking for advice from someone who has worked with both. Thank you!
