I'm planning to buy a used Yuneec Q500 4K Typhoon. Does this model receive automatic software updates? Or is it still being updated with new software?


Turkish
2. El Yuneec Q500 4K Typhoon alacağım. Bu model otomatik yazılım güncellemeleri alıyor mu acaba. Yada yeni yazılımlarla halen güncelleniyor mu bu cihaz
 
Like anything else electronics/computer based the Q500 has been considered to be a legacy product and no longer is supported by Yuneec. This community on the forum can provide guidance for maintaining the Q500, but consumables like batteries, propellers, and such are getting more difficult to source as time goes on.

If the one you are considering to purchase has been properly cared for it can still be a very airworthy machine. There are a lot of them still flying to this day.
 
Which graphics cards and what size cards does this drone support? Are there any limitations on card selection?

Turkish
Bu dron hangi kartları ve kaç gb kartları destekliyor. Bir sınırlama varmı kart seçiminde
 
The SD card requirements depend on the camera that is being used. The most common was the CGO3 4K camera which will accommodate up to a 128GB U3 rated card (3 inside the U). 16GB and 32GB cards should use FAT32 formatting, and 64GB and 128GB cards need exFAT.
 
Is the SANDISK Ultra microSDXC 128 GB UHS-I card suitable for both the camera and the controller? Is it necessary to insert a card into the controller as well? Some sources say to insert a card into the controller so it can record flight data.


Turkish
SANDISK Ultra microSDXC 128 GB UHS-I Bu Model Kart Uygun Mudur Hem Kamera Hem De Kontrolcü İçin. Kontrölcüye kart takmaya gerek varmı. Bazı yerlerde kontrolcüye de kart takın ki uçuş bilgilerini kaydetsin diyor.
 
For the controller an cheap, old, slow SD card is good, 8GB is more than enough. The card in the controller is not really needed but good for diagnosis. The flight logs are stored only there. That's why it is good practice to have one in.
 
The controller only works with SD cards in the FAT32 format. So 8, 16, or 32GB cards.
 
Can we use a card larger than 128 GB? Does it support it?
No, these older cameras only handle a maximum of 128GB SD cards.

Cards 32GB and less use FAT32 formatting and the 64GB and 128 GB cards use exFAT.

The SD card slot under the battery in the ST10+ controller uses SD cards of 32GB max with FAT32 formatting.
 
I bought and installed a KIOXIA 64GB Exceria Micro SDXC UHS-1 C10 100MB/s memory card for the controller. Will the controller (ST16) not register with this card? Do I need to replace it?

I formatted it as FAT32.


Kontrolcü için KIOXIA 64GB Exceria Micro SDXC UHS-1 C10 100MB/sn Hafıza Kartı aldım ve taktım. Bu kartla kontrolcü (ST16 ) kayıt etmeyecek mi. Değiştirmem mi gerekiyor. Fat32 olarak biçimlendirme.
 
No, 64GB will not be accepted and is more than overkill for this purpose. 8GB will last for hundreds of flight hours and are more than you need in your lifetime. The slowest SD card that you can get this days is more as fast enough.

This card in a ST10+ is like a Porsche as a wheelbarrow.
