If Yuneec was Lassie or Rin Tin Tin you could call and they’d come to the rescue toot suite. Alas, you’ll have to call and wait for them to get back to you.
Poor attempts at humor aside, it’s time to get Yuneec deeply involved in the “fixing” process.
Hahahaha, you read my mind, but I did attempt to call them at 9am on a Saturday.. lol.
The conclusion: I’m used to doing battery hot swaps due to working in the pits (construction. We move fast and Pat you know this first hand, as you’ve worked in construction for many years)
1) The ST16s takes a long time to reboot that why I swap quickly.
* BUILD750 was quick to acquire satellite feed in both transmitter and drone.
2) During a hot swap process. BUILD757 does not refresh the gps controller signal strength once the camera rebinds with the H+ and it give a false gps reading. For example before the hot swap my gps Controller reads 12 gps, and the Drone reads 20 gps. After the hot swap the controller remains at 12 GPS (false reading) while the drone refreshes and acquires a new gps signal. As the H+ airborne and ascends from the launchpad to an alt of 5-20 meters it keeps climbing, because the control suddenly refreshes and initiate a gps connection, and thus somewhat disabling the control of the throttle stick.
3) The best method, and you guys are right. Once the H+ has flown successfully, do a shut down protocol.
I have 4 batteries and after, I concluded my test. I flew the two batteries, while using the 4Hawks db antenna, and the H+ regained my trust and confidence again, during the video latency and distance test. I didn’t do a height test, because I don’t typically fly high for work, and I did not test for alt.
