    Battery lifetime

    Dear All, Happy new year to everyone! I've read that the battery lifetime is limited and lasts about 100 cycles. What happens then? Will it fail suddenly so the typhoon falls out of the air or do we just notice shorter flight times? Is there a way to check the power supply? Thank you...

    Battery Storage - How long is too long?

    Hi, I've spend quite some time trawling through the forums trying to get a better understanding of Lithium Polymer batteries. I now have a good idea of the ideal storage voltage and storage temperatures but how long before a flight is it OK to charge them up? I like to be ready well in advance...

    Battery storage voltage.

    Are there any tips out there on how to get the Typhoon H batteries to their storage voltage using the supplied charger? Say, land at first warning and then charge for 15 minutes.. Or charge for x minutes for each 10th if a volt below the storage voltage when you land?

    Batteries capacity and low voltage behaviour

    Hi ensemble, after a very long flight, where I discharged the battery to about 13.8V I noticed the charger did charge 6300mAh. So what? I did a full discharge cycle then and discharged the battery at 1.5A down to 3.3V/cell. Guess what? I got 6449mAh! Ok it was a discharge at very low C...

    A battery update for those interested...

    Greetings from Australia...... Stop press news on spare batteries......... Nothing here yet, and according to the importers, nothing in the pipeline. Everyone here surviving on one battery each and a couple of spare blades...... Don't know what's going on with the Yuneec distribution...

    Help on H batteries...!

    Can I get a picture of the battery situation with you flyers out there please. It's doing my head in here... For the last 2 weeks my hobby store has been telling me "end of the month". I checked with my contact at the importers today, he told me they haven't even been sent out to Australia yet...

    Battery shipping problem

    Does anyone know of a Yuneec dealer that has a carrier that can ship the H battery overseas. I've just tried 2 and they've both declined. We don't even have a price here in Oz, but I do know that when they make the announcement it will be outrageous, even taking into account import duty, taxes...

    Spare batteries, blades cheaper option?

    Has anyone looked at the offers from the WWW to pick up a good price for the add ons. There's some dealers quoting good prices on Yuneec products. Just a thought.

    Installing the batteries

    Hi all, How do you manage to install the batteries on steady grip? Everytime I try to insert the last battery another pops-up, and I'm not able to close the cover...
