    Real World Range of H520 and E90

    Does anyone have any practical knowledge of horizontal range for the ST16S (standard) and H520 with E90? I was filming at a golf course yesterday and had 2 video losses and choppy, lagging video when it got beyond about 300m. The documentation says up to 1.6km in ideal conditions. It go so...

    H520 near High Voltage Power Lines

    Hi, I have a video / photo shoot this week at a golf course. Some of the holes they have asked to have filmed start or end under or near some high voltage power lines. I've heard mixed stories of flying drones near, under and over such cables. Some people say its fine and reference how they have...

    H520 Preflight Checklist - A5

    Just in case anyone finds it useful, I copy/pasted the H520 Preflight info from their manual onto a PDF that can be printed A5 and laminated, then kept with the drone and used in the field. I've done this for my intended commercial ops manual, etc but thought I'd share in case it was of use to...

    Orbit/Follow Me/other intelligent flight modes

    I've heard rumors that "on this or that drone fair" someone "saw for sure" that the H520 had the intelligent flight modes. Anyone else heard about it? I certainly don't have them. Perhaps they are available only in the US firmware? (I don't think so though). Most likely that's bogus, because...

    No Yuneec or Dealer Support - need commercial support

    I had a suspected issue with the ST16S recently after buying and shipping a new H520 / E90 to NZ from Vertigo Drones in the US. I contacted Vertigo and Yuneec US, raising tickets in their respective support applications. Yuneec responded saying that whilst the product was correctly registered...

    Stuck retracted legs

    Upon power on of the H520 in the field, the legs retracted of their own volition even though the blades weren't turning and the ST16S switch has the legs in the down position. Repeated attempts to lower the legs have failed. Does anyone know of a way of 'forcing' the legs back down? Otherwise...

    H520 Emergency Chute

    Does anyone know of options for fitting a remotely or automatically activated chute to an H520? Looking at getting safety sign off for some work within the city and this was mentioned as something that could help get approval.

    Human Readable Flight Data

    Guys, I might be missing something, but I can't seem to find a view/screen on the ST16S that shows me a view of flight information for manual flights flown. I flew the H520 for the first time today and went to update my flight log, etc and suddenly realised I had no idea how to get an overview...

    Can't calibrate H520 Accelerometer

    I'm getting an error message on the ST16S when I try and calibrate the Accelerometer. The calibration fails each time with the depressing descending set of beeps, and then an error on the ST16S: EMERGENCY: Mag 0 fail: TOUT! I've tried in various locations and all fail in the same way. Also...

    H520 Motor Failure

    I very recently purchased an H520 and went out into the field today to test the aircraft, the first real test that I have done with it. However, towards the end of my 2nd battery (~50% remaining), the transmitter gave a warning that the #5 motor had stopped and the aircraft was operating on...
