The Typhoon H is a little different from the Q500 when hooking up the GUI.
Of course, both require use of a DATA TYPE USB. Standard charger type USB won't work. Even though both USB cables types look the same, they are not.
If it will not transfer files between your phone and computer, it is the wrong type.
Some USB hubs will not work. You should connect directly to the computer.
1.) Ensure USB cable is the "DATA" type.
2.) Ensure Typhoon H is OFF.
3.) Ensure the ST16 is OFF. (It is not used for GUI. If powered up, it will interfere.)
4.) If desired, connect USB to Typhoon H end ONLY.
5.) Ensure USB is NOT connected to computer.
6.) Start the GUI, and give it plenty of time to come full up on screen.
7.) Power up the Typhoon H.
8.) Ensure USB is connected to Typhoon H. (If not done at step 4.)
9.) Connect USB to computer.
The GUI should then recognize the Typhoon H.
On the motor subject:
I don't know the history of this particular Typhoon H, so I will offer a couple general things:
1.) It is rare for an actual motor to go bad. It is more common for the main ESC board to go bad, or have blown individual motor fuses.
2.) The motors don't run the same with props off vrs. props on. With props off, everything will sound pretty normal when at idle. If you increase speed, the motors start making strange sounds, and will probably go into "Motor failure, enter 5 rotor Mode". In some cases the motors will not throttle down, and the "OFF" button will not work. You have to pull the battery. And all that is on a normal, healthy drone.
