    Typhoon H for sale for parts - SOLD

    *SOLD* i'm done. it may be fixable, mostly broken arms and landing gear - camera is toast - should have taken that off...probably could have caught it when it was falling - but it was so sudden and so unexpected - i didn't have time to react. Make me an offer and include shipping maybe you need...

    ? i suppose it was inevitable - went out to the park today and tried using "take off" and "return to home" instead of red start button - it took off okay - and then rose to about 30'...had a mind of it's own - and then for some reason it decided to turn off the motors - see my new ad in the...

    so now i may have stumbled upon the issue. I dug out my Yuneek Wizard from my Q500 4K and took it outside, calibrated it - bound it to the H. Powered up the H and the wizard (with no props 'cuz i was in my driveway still) and let it bind and find...all systems ready - pressed the "red motor...

So went...

    the gps on the left side of the st16 says "ready" but the tail light continues to blink slowly and never becomes solid in either angle or smart mode - my understanding is that the "drone" image in the upper right hand portion of the st16 is supposed to "light up" when you get a good gps lock...

    okay - so this is today - looks like the gps kicks in pretty quickly - but once again slow blinking tail-light and never get the ability to start the motors - much less "hover" I have yet to hear back from VD - that is kind of depressing....what else could this be?

    GPS Acquiring, Not Ready

    GPS Acquiring, Not Ready

    okay so i downloaded and looked through that file...couple of strange things - there are essentially two different dates for the files - either the date on the data in the file is 12/31/13 (i don't think i was flying on new years eve) and 7/20/2020 - two days AFTER it came back from VD. NO...
