    Commercial roof mapping

    The rolling shutter hasn't been a problem by flying slow enough. I always set speed at 3.5m/s, and am usually at 50m AGL.

    Commercial roof mapping

    Hi. I've used both for mapping. The DataPilot planning screen will tell you the GSD for each camera for an area to be mapped. The E50 will take many more photos at the same altitude, of fly higher for a less images but also less GSD. The bigger issue is overlap at the roof level. If you plan...

    Yes. Bought together.

    E90 gimbal is limp

    Thank you. I was afraid that might be the case. There is no Yuneec in the UK any more. There is Yuneec Europe, in Germany, but they seem to be pretty un-responsive at the moment. I appreciate that my three Yuneecs are now obsolete, and a few years old, and I am having to think about my best...

    E90 gimbal is limp

    Hello, and thanks for responding. 1) No - to all of the questions a-g. 2) No beep sounds from gimbal. 3) The pin-hole LED on the back cover is not lit. Just the front green LED, which blinks every 2 seconds.

    E90 gimbal is limp

    Having just repaired one of my two E90's, I now have an issue with the other. Connected to the H520 the controller can see the camera, and has video feed. But the gimbal is completely limp, no resistance to movement. The gimbal controls don't work. The power LED on the camera is green and...

    E90 autonomous mapping

    @WTFDproject Thanks for your assistance with this camera issue. I found an antenna on ebay and started the replacement following your instructions. On opening the camera I found that the existing antenna wire was not connected properly. I re-attached the existing wire, tested the drone &...

    E90 autonomous mapping

    I have found a C23 antenna on UK ebay and ordered it. Thanks for your assistance. I'll let you know how the replacement goes.

    E90 autonomous mapping

    OK, thanks again. I'll look into that then.

    E90 autonomous mapping

    Thanks for that advice @WTFDproject, very helpful. Yes, same issue as previously posted. I haven't attempted to replace the antenna - assuming I could obtain a replacement, is this a relatively simple thing to do? I'm not electronically competent.

    E90 autonomous mapping

    Thanks Steve. Yes, tried that too.

    E90 autonomous mapping

    Hi. The problem developed quickly a while ago. I have done comparative tests with two different H520's and another E90 to eliminate other factors. The db signal strength is low compared to the good E90. It's a bit better with a Raptor range extender, but still not as good as it should be.

    E90 autonomous mapping

    I have an E90 which seems to have a wifi fault as it loses video signal when less than 100m from the controller. I am in the UK and there is no Yuneec service here for a repair. However, I am thinking that the camera would still function through a programmed mapping mission, recording the data...

    Keep the H or sell for parts ?

    I'm in a similar position with an old H which I haven't used for over two years. I use drones for roof surveys mainly but the H has become redundant due to the better quality cameras and freedom of use of the Mini's now available. I still use a couple of H520's for mapping sites though, and...

    Thank you.
