    Typhoon, Camera Diagnostic

    I'm new... Is there a way to do a diagnostic on the camera? I've found this thing does not land like a helicopter. In fact, it doesn't really like landing at all... I was doing ok but then tried to land on a picnic table not thinking. It rolled off the table. I broke a few of those gimbal...

    Q500 Minor Crash - CGO3 Problem (PLEASE HELP!)

    I had a minor crash yesterday. Nothing broke except a prop. The gimble wires also became detached.

    Flight four.........CRASH

    OK, it was my mistake. Pretty much. Launched fine. Went to hit the gear up switch and grazed the far right toggle with my wrist, putting it in SAFE mode. She bolts straight away from me, as programmed, and right into a wall. All in slow motion. I knew I had lost control, knew my wrist had...

    First crash done...

    Too fast, too confident, too much trees, it's all my fault. I use to practice on a field where the grass is high, so the H falled from 2 meters after one of the propeller has touched as small tree. The accident is not so horrible but here is the visual result : - 3 propellers broken - the...

    Drone crash insurance?

    My H is on order from Amazon. I have an Amazon store card with zero interest for 12 months so that's why I went with them. Are there any accidental damage to drone insurance options for me if I crash the drone?

    Crash at start up?! Didn't even touch control?

    On the boat yesterday, I went to launch off the bow as I have always done. All satellite connected. Everything ready. Led purple in angle mode. I press the red button to start the motors. At that moment the motors start. I'm not touching any of the controls. The motors seemed to throttle up on...
