WOW WOW WOW, Did I say WOW...
My previous bird is a V686 so I can not make any comparison to the DJI or other products.
I am so beyond impressed.
Only flew for about 5 minutes just to check out some of the controls.
Took off in angle mode with turtle selected, took more throttle than I thought it would to get up out of ground effect. But was very slow and deliberate take off, with responsive controls. Tooke her up to about 100' and she just sat there, a gust came by and still very little movement. Tried a landing in angle mode. very slow decent with a zero bounce touch down. (HOLD THROTTLE ALL THE WAY DOWN ON LANDING AND IT WILL NOT BOUNCE)
Took off again to about 150' and hit the RTH. Landing gear auto deployed, came down very slow with only a slight bounce on landing and I noticed that the motors stopped all by them selves. (nice touch)
My video did not record due to pilot error, forgot to stop the recording on landing.
Pros: Very quiet, Very stable, 2 minute hover test at about 100' and it just sat there. In turtle mode very smooth yet responsive controls. In rabbit mode the H can move very quickly. Quiet when compared to my V686.
Cons: ST-16 needs to talk, so that when you select something you get an audio reply. Would like to see flight mode better displayed on the controller. Needs a anti glare filter on display, ( several post and Ming's video on this)
Supplied foam box has holes in bottom and only has cutouts for 2 batteries. Would rather see up to 4 batteries and separate cut outs for the wizard and other items. Will see what others come up with for a hard case or may just make my own. The gimbal lock should have been made out of RED plastic so you don't forget to remove it. Tied a red ribbon to mine.
I could be doing something wrong but takes almost 2 minutes to connect to the camera.
This is all out of the box, I have NOT done any of the up-dates of the firmware. I am so beyond impressed that you would have to take the H to max altitude to see my smile.
Yuneec needs to do a few clean up a few things on the ST-16 (map Overlay) but I see so much potential I hope they do not let us all down.
OK enough rambling I need to go fly this thing again.
