    I'm lucky to get a Q5004k QuadCopter with 2 minor issues

    So, what is on it's way in to replace the Q?

    NODE's Canadian campaign is now active:

    That sucks. I go to an open park area three miles from where I live. It is a collection of soccer fields, a baseball field, and a football field. All flatlands. Plus a 200 yard by 150 yard grass field. Secluded area away from roads and buildings. Great for flying drones.

    well just got repair and shipping email on my Typhoon

    That sucks. Hope they did not accidentally send you a drone that belongs to someone else.

    The Typhoon G is in the lake. After 2 years of flights

    To the OP, that sucks. Could you have put it in 'rabbit' mode to gain some speed and get it out of there? I personally would never fly over a lake unless I had a full charge on the battery and would always bring it back once I hit around 11.3v.

    The Q500 4K wasn't that price two years ago when he first bought his 'G'.

    Capabilities of the Q500 G

    Guys, I really don't think Yuneec is going to come out with some firmware to allow the 'G' to control a GoPro. Might as well do as others have suggested and just manually start and stop the recording and just enjoy the FPV on the ST10+.

    I did the unthinkable

    So true. I've veiwed quite a few videos on Youtube about sudden power loss in flight for Q500's. Makes me wonder if the pilots did indeed ensure the battery was fully seated. I know on my Q500, I can push the battery in until it becomes snug, but another push is required for it to properly seat.

    Found Some Drone Flight Tips for Beginners

    The best drone flying tips I can give someone is to get the JXD 509G and learn to fly in NORMAL mode before moving up to bigger drones. Also develop the habit of descending with forward flight and not coming straight down to avoid Vortex Ring State.

    Not Standard Equipment?

    Well, technically you DID if the bird is indeed a Q500 4K and your camera is not the CGO3 and you have the ST10 and not the ST10+.

    Not Standard Equipment?

    Seems you got shafted. Did you purchase the drone off eBay? Did the seller tell you what you were getting? The Q500 4K comes with the CGO3 and the ST10+.

    Drones falling from the sky.

    Same here. The Q500 platform is so sleek looking.

    Any news for Q500 4K update or new model?

    Thanks. I was thinking a newer model with perhaps dual-GPS, better range, and whatever the latest drone features are. Maybe a Q600 4K with a little more speed and maneuverability. I really like the body style of the Q500 series and hope they continue it. Even though DJI introduced the Mavic...
