    Batteries

    That does lead to a question, it seems that even tho I store them properly, my batteries are lasting about two years, is that normal, average, or...?

    Precision rth

    My first Q I used RTH, but then things went buggy and Home wasn't exactly where I thought it should be (like, on the side of a cliff or worse). So I began to practice manual landing and with my H have never used RTH. Had an associate who always used RTH, few months ago it went south on him just...

    Fluid on ST after storage

    I wonder if you're right, it was a very small amount, and I've had it on its side all night, and there isn't any more. Still, I'll get the Allen wrenches I need to open it up just in case. I have checked, triple checked the H and the pack, padding, etc., and nothing. Thanks so much.

    Fluid on ST after storage

    Thanks, I'll call Yuneec in the a.m., then go get those hexes. I have taken all of the foam out of the pack, nothing, then I re-packed the H in the backpack and put some paper towels in where the ST 16 would be, then uprighted it. I'll see what I get in the morning, if anything. Downright...

    Fluid on ST after storage

    Thanks, I'll look at this in the morning, not sure I have that small of an allen wrench - while I'm on hold. It's still under warranty - got it in May - so perhaps they'll send a new one and I'll send old one back. Of course, I'll have to bind, etc. drats. Have a job tomorrow, so I'll use my Q...

    Fluid on ST after storage

    Nope, I haven't flown in about three weeks, like I said, windy and was gone for two weeks. Stored in pack entire time. In the last two hours since posting, a bit more did ooze out. Not much, just a tiny amount. I'll call Yuneec in the a.m., try to get thru to somebody.

    Fluid on ST after storage

    Just did, all seems fine there, a tiny bit more has oozed in the last 10 minutes or so. And yes the ST 16 for the H.

    Fluid on ST after storage

    I checked and checked, rubbed my hands all over it and also checked the H, no fluids there. The ST is at my side now (like it would be in the pack, stored upright, and some more fluid did ooze out, it's near the usb port kinda in the middle between the mushroom ant and the vert ant. When I plug...

    Fluid on ST after storage

    Weather's been nuts, then out of town for two weeks, pulling out the drone for tomorrow from the backpack, and noticed there is fluid of some sort on the top of it near the antennae, it seems a little oily. No, I don't have anything else in the pack and have no idea where it came from, it's not...

    Does anyone have tips on finding jobs in commercial progress photos

    Yes, join a Leads Group - and your local building contractor's organization, there will be one near you. Realtors are also a good fit for us as well, they know builders and many of them work exclusively on new commercial builds. Develop a contract with clear understandings about what you can and...

    Where/how to store the H LiPo battery?

    Are using a battery charger that has a "Storage" setting? Look into one, they're a little pricey but IMO worth it. I store my batteries in the lipo bags at room temp.
