just checking the latest quote on H batteries here guys in Oz...
Not good news... This one wants just on $190 for one!

Yuneec Drones | Yuneec Typhoon Quadcopters New

Surely they should be a little cheaper than that... Maybe $150 would be fair?
I've got a couple on back order in the US for $84(US)!!!
Don't start about charges for shipping to be added for Oz, that US price includes to
the shipping charge to the states....... the b%#~<}y batteries come from China and we're closer!!!

Just checked adorama they're still listing the batteries for $83.99 US, however they are back ordered I still ordered 2.
 
Yes, I did and it's everything I thought it would be.
Doing more baby steps today... With one battery....grrr
Yeh went down to our local shop today and had a play with it. I have to say, It is lighter than i expected which is great and the controller feels fantastic to hold. I will hold off till the next shipment so that gives me time to enjoy my 2 x P2's before one has to go.
Good luck with it Chris, Hope it gives you many years of fun.

Aus prices:

Battery : $175
Backpack : $240

Came from my dealer today (not in stock)
 
Amazing how prices differ so much for similar items.
For example the DJI P4 battery sells for $289.00 here in Australia compared to what netjam said above $175.00 for the H battery.
So many advantages of going the Yuneec direction as most everything is saving us money. When you consider buying a P4 with the additional cost of a tablet, and here we get the whole package much less and in my opinion equal to if not better than the p4, I think we are doing well. Whats your thoughts guys? am I being 1 eyed here of fair in my comments? For those of you who do not know this, I am the owner of 2 x P2's with gopros and i love them heaps But my next buy will be the H without a doubt.
