My first thought would be to send a PM to AV8Chuck. He's sort of "close" with a lot of people.

A Canadian that bought through Amazon Prime now has a shipping notification and tracking number.

If that's CarolinDronz he is indeed a top notch dealer. Hard to find better. If not, who's second best?:)

It will not be a requirement if 107 is published as it was written. An aeronautical knowledge written test, TSA background check, and self medical certification were high points in the NPRM. Total cost to the applicant was predicted to be <$300.00. I already have a pilot's license but I'm not...

I'd still go with the 3DR version.

Forrest, Earlier today Yuneec made a statement it would be shipping some time next week. If you ordered from a dealer they would be a good source of information now that Yuneec had spoken. Of course there's the question of who will get them first and how many.

As of a post yesterday from a UK dealer on the FB Typhoon H Owners Group, the model has not left the factory yet. I think CarolinaDronz just received one, and only one, as a demo unit. Nothing to verify with but word has 4/29 as a new ship date.

Nothing available that I could pontificate about really. The doom and gloom is what most of us think about first for some reason but I don't have any info to go on.

Only photos that can be shown were in the press release with the unit carrying the Insitu Scan Eagle uav. There's video of it in operation. I think the original article was in PopSci online and a news article from Reuters. Look up "Flares". They are really big.

4200mm is correct. A little larger actually.

Those holding a 333 will likely have advantages over a 107 operation. Higher altitude limits and a national blanket operations authority in legal airspace being two of them. The only reason I haven't filed is because I would have to be "current in type" which would cost way more than paying a...

Thanks buddy! One other tip I've been meaning to get into this thread. Back in the beginning I lamented on the lack of instructions from Horizon. Took awhile but I found the same ST-10+ transmitter is used by Yuneec's Typhoon 4k quad. The Typhoon has a somewhat comprehensive user manual that...

2nd bump

Agreed, and it will provide much more functionality at a low price.

Sad part is, DJI only holds that position for video rigs. Those that have gone far beyond taking pictures have found DJI to be a poor second to Pix based systems. Try building and flying a 4200mm X8 with an A2. Can't be done with repeated success.

Congratulations! Something I took awhile to discover with mine was the numerous camera functions available in the transmitter. If you haven't already done so, next time you turn everything on go into the camera selection menu and select CGO-3 Pro. Making that selection opens up full control...

If that was the plan it may be working. Yuneec had referenced a 4/1 ship date for pre/ordered basic Typhoon H's, which slipped to 4/3, and has slipped again with no further date info due to a "firmware" update. Unless they have yet to develop and write the code I'm not believing it.

There have been a couple of FrSky transmitters have significant electronic workmanship failures at my local flying field. Almost lost one new 3DR X-8 due to Tx failure on the first flight. Had the Mavlink comm system not also been in use it would have been a fly away.

Agreed. I never could figure out why they felt a need to sell GPS "licenses" to open up more waypojnt capability though. We do have the issue where so many inventors/creators came up with really good ideas and products but failed to patent them, or at least Copyright them. In the world of...

A DJI rep in another forum denies that, suggesting that DJI did them first, and that DJI's GPS has always been the best.....
