For the record, an H won’t go anywhere until the red button is held down to arm the motors...

Seriously, then you should of been at the field as it started all on its own and flipped backwards

 

[rdonson]

Not saying that this is what happened.

There is a TAKEOFF mode in TASKS. If someone inadvertently engaged this it will lift off and hover at 6 ft. (2m).

Flipping on landing is something new pilots do until they're used to landing the H. I did it myself several times. Only cost me a few props until I learned better ways to land the H.

I am not a new drine pilot. This is my first yuneec i have a phantom 4 pro and a mavic platum. When the h started up on its own it lifted off and went backwards on its own. The st16 was on the table

Sorry.... I wasn't accusing you. Like you, just trying to figure out what happened. It sounds like a very serious malfunction of several systems on the H.

If you have a PC you might be able to try somethings with the Yuneec GUI.

Please upload the telemetry so I can help you with this. Add a .txt to the file name to upload it.

They are completely different. Some used to DJI controls have made disastrous mistakes with their first flights with an H thinking automated systems functioned the same.

The light on the back is green and the radio says reconnecting to camera when there is none on it and says no gps

If it does not have a camera mounted it will continuously state it is trying to re-connect. That’s normal.

Ok why does it just have a green solid light.dont get the blue light and the tone it should when it is connected and ready

 

[PatR]

Is it inside or outside? GPS rarely works inside a structure, unless it’s a tent. You have it in Smart mode. Purple would be Angle. No white flash indicates less than 10 satellites. Blue would be telling you to wait. Essentially not ready to do anything yet due to communications, programming, or bind issues.

 

[Yak54]

Its outside with the switch in the middle off smart mode and it just gets a solid green light

 

[Yak54]

Ok so i just replaced the slip ring on my cgo3+ now when i get it on the h and power everything up the camers goes to the left(as if your looking at it from the front. And it has a flashing red and green light

 

[rdonson]

Why don't you check out the light chart I posted earlier?

 

[Yak54]

Does not mention the camera on it

 

[Yak54]

And cant figure out why the camera is not facing forward but rather to the left

 

[rdonson]

At the bottom of that chart there is a section that says "CGO3+ CAMERA LED STATUS INDICATIONS"

 

[rdonson]

The camera may face any old way until is powered up and connected to the ST16

 

[rdonson]

I'm assuming you did a gimbal calibration, right?
