End of my experience with Yuneec

[Pier2162]

Hi all...
This morning due to a my mistake I crashed my Typhoon H on a tree, than it fall heavily to the ground.
I was distracted by an helicopter, just turn my head to see where it was and when I turn back my look to the drone it was too near at the tree and my manouvre to avoid the impact had no success. I was flying with no gps and the inertia did the drone reach the tree also if the sticks was already released.
Result : 4 arms broken, 2 motors damaged, CG03+ camera and gimbal totally destroyed.
The repair will cost me more than buying another drone, I think I will choose a smaller one in order to take it with me easily during my motorbike trips.
I will sell what remains, as batteries, st16 and camera filters just to don't trow them away.
It has been nice to follow this forum, thanks to everyone.

This is sad. The loss of the TH is bad. The loss of your participation in the forum is worse. If you decide to repair or replace, we will be here.
Best wishes with whichever path you follow.

That's sad because you have been on here for a long time. Good luck to you!!

Very sad. I've enjoyed your contributions. First on your Chromas, of which I still fly two, and then on your TH. Good luck to you on your future flying!

I feel badly for your loss. I enjoy flying the H models much more than the smaller quads. I hate to see you leave. Best of luck on your new adventures.

You will be missed @Pier2162 as you have been a longtime active member of the forum. So sad to lose the TH in that manner. Feel free to stop in and say hello when you think about us.

Any idea what small quad you are thinking about purchasing?

WOW! I hate to hear this. You have been a member here for a long time. Sorry to hear about your H.
I have a DJI Mini 2 SE that I LOVE! It is small and very easy to take on hikes.

At the moment I'm looking around on the market, I would not go on Dji, too expensive and low level servicing here in Italy.
I've seen the Potensic Atom 4k SE that seems to be a good compromise between quality and price, and above all a site where to buy accessories, batteries etc.

Potensic ATOM Drone with 4K 3-Axis Gimbal Camera

With a stabilized 3-axis gimbal camera, 4K HD camera, 32 minutes of flight time, 6km video transmission, visual tracking, and many more upgrades, ATOM gives you the freedom to explore far and wide adventures.

I have one and it's really good for everything. I knew it would happen, now potensic 2, 3. Great replacement for dji and equally as impressive!!
